tB- We are pleased to see that at least two
Democratic journals in Iowa are opposed to the
great scheme of State aid to Railroads. The
Dubuque Express and Herald and Des Monss
Statesman are out in opposition to the scheme.
The former has had q number Of strong arti-
elss placing the project before its readers in
its true light Ben Samusls has, we UNDER
stand, changed his position, and 10 now opposing
the project.
The Fairfield Ledger, Muscatins Journal,
Vinton Eagle, Iowa City Republican, and sew
eral other Republican journals have taken q
bold and determined stand against it, and we
hazard little in saying the scheme does not
stand the ghost of 4 chance. Il will so under
with those whs are attempting to saddle
this immense debt upon ths people, never again
to be mentioned except in terms of derison.

After falling into all manner of mud holes.

the bereayed man. In subdued voice, he
asked the man if he had lost his wife. The man

AWFUL TRAGEDY AT DRAGoON SPRINGS, II
ARIzoNA.-A correspondent Of the Memphis
Bulletin, writing from Arizona, on the 18th ult.,
gives the details of most terrible murder at
Tnsson, one of the mail stations. The deed
was accomplished BY three Mexicans, youths
from fifteen to eighteen ysars Of age, in the en-.
ploy of the Company. Mr.. St. John, the gen
tleman in charge of the station, who was one
OF the survivors, says:
On Wednesday night absat IL o'clock, he
saw two Of the above mentioned youths enter
the room opposite to the esd in which he was
sleeping He (Nr S. John( was about half
awake, and at once reused himself, thinking te
detect the boys ia some sers Of petty theft,
when he heard the heavy blews which killed the
old gen leman lying in front Of the corral, de-
scending upon him, and in . moment saw BY
the indistinct light, the wretches commence
their bloody work on the ether men.
He at once sprang to his feet and seized his
double. barreled gun, and lsvslsd at the n,iscrs-
ants, and just ~ he was about 70 pull the trig-
ger, his Left arm was nearly Topped off by blow
from an axe in the hands Of the wretch whO
killed the old man in trent Of the corral; this
blow was followed up by one making slight
incision in the left breast and woundng his
left arm in another place, and by still another
inficting terrible cash ia his right leg. Dis
abled as he was, Mr.. St. Join wheeled, and
seizing a Colts repeater, fred, wbereupon the
cowardly murdersr's fed, only to return to the
scene of their 6endish exploit an hour after
wards, again to be frightened away by another
shot from Mr.. st. Johns pistol
From that awful hour, says the correspondent,
until the time Of our arrival At Dragon Springs,
Mr.. St. John had endured with heroic fortituds
the pangs Of hunger and thirst, and the excru.
ciatng pain of his wounds, and had even
dragged himself to the gate Of the corral, to
let out the animals, that they might seek food
and water. When we reached Dragon Springs,
therefore, We found the dead bodies Of Mr.. JAS.
Bun, of Watertown, Jefferson county, N. Y,
and one Cunningham, OF Iowa; Mr.. Silas st.
John, of New York, in the above described
condition, and one James or William Long, Of
Bloomington, ILL.,, with fractured skull.

NEW TARITF.--1t 10 noticeable among the
signs Of the Times that Senator Hammond Of
South Carolina, in a late speech at Barnwell
Court House, takes high ground against any
modification Of the Tariff, other than = reduce
ton Of the present ad ralorem rate Of duties
With the usual inpudencc and arrogance OF
gentlemen of his school of politics, no declares
in advance that any change in the direction in
Sicated by half the industrial population Of the
Republic win be cause for disunion. An alter
alton Of the scale Of duties, would in his opin-
ion, be equivalent to the establishment Of .
despotism justify ing the resistance Of the South.

BSS@ The merchants and underwriters Of
New York are very much dissatisfied with
the uses which the steam revenue cutter
Harriet Lane has been put to. The vessel
was built by government at a cost of $780,
600, at the solicitation of the underwriters,
as q protection and assistance to vessels on
the coast in bad weather The first wreck
that occurred after the Harriet Lane was
ready, was on Siuam Beach, large ship
from British port. As soon as the under
writers heard of the danger, they applied to
the collector for assistance by thencw cutter,
and were informed that the vessel was on an
excursionto Washington, and was being used
for the private pleasure parties of the fami-
lies of the President and members of his
Cabinet. Since they have done with her,
she is to be sent in the expedition to Par
quay.

CHAMELEON CoAL.-The Reporter says the
Coal Company will soon complete their
branch railroad for their lesseeS, MessrS. ID.
Newcomb & Co., at a cost of about $4,000.
This will be about three quarters of mile
in length, and will give access to a large
body of coal lands, Immediately in the rear
ofthe mines formerly worked by the Messrs.
Boyds. Within the last seven years the
company have expended about 100000 in
increasing the facilities of mining and NOV
ing their coal. The expenditures of their
lesees for the same purposes, have, also,
been very heavy. Probably there are no
mines in the Illinois coal basin, so well pre-
pared for profitable working, or which can
now be extended so easily and economically.
The Company, and Messrs. ID. Newcomb
& Co., seem to have adopted the correct
principle that in the long run, the best work
is the cheapest, and that no business is
worth the following which is not arranged
in the best manner.
