His prediction that we will have no Ter
 rtorIal Government for at lcait two years {,
 comc,' in itsolfamounts to but little, and vii
 have no influence for or against the measure
 It is no reason why the citizens should not con
 tinuo to petition for their rights which the,
 have so urgently done, and will continue to do
 'til they do receive recognition of them.
 In our last number we replied fully to hi
 assertion that all we needed was Judicia
 District,' and showed conclusyey that hi
 course, while editing the ARzoStAv, was ono O
 silent neglect of the Question-knowinr it wa repugnaut to the wishes of the large majority of our cirizens--with the exception of a mere expression of his views at the close of his edi torial career in this country; and although repeated like other absuriities 1t requires no further answer at our hands
 Weregret exceedingly to learn that " Gila greyes at the fact that the present proprie. tors of the AR1zoyIAy are sustaining the hope of a territorial organization" We have thus far done so, and at the same time boldly and earnestly advocated it; and as it is the wish of nearly our entire people we shall certainly con tinue to do SO, independent of his sUfterjngs, till our exertons are rewarded in the success of the measure.
 In regard to the population of Arizona, not withstanding his ignorance upon the subject as shown in letter after letter. it requires no further reply from us. We have, already amply proved our statements, by evidence not to be refuted, and none will deny us the pos session of population sufficient to enttle us to a separate government.
 IL is not nt all surprising that Gila, with the little he has seen while here, and blinded by prejudice, as he has shown himself to be on all matters that relate to Arizona should be unable to see, the capacity of this country for agriculture" It nevertheless exists and pro- pery developed will prove itself equal to our vast mineral resources We have sufficiently established the truth of this in the columns of this paper, and time will fully prove our asser- ton.
 For want of space, we can only notice one other absurd statement that appeared in one of "Glas' letters, as evidence showing the little knowledge he has of this country. He says, "there is not a permanent stream of Wa ter in Arizona, over two miles long leaving out he Rio Granle and Colorado and that by permanent he means one not intermittent and offers a suitable reward to the discoySrer of such one" In leaving out the above two rivers, he forgets to state their size and capa- city, and the fact, that the possession of them, alone, would be considered invaluable by any other state without the addition of half dozen other large rivers We are, fortunately not in need of the suitable reward he deems ne cessary to offer to carry weight to his statement but, if allowed, will recommend to him, some worthy object of charity to bestow it upon. We can show to "Gila' not only one, but several rivers in this Territory that are not intermit- tent We need only refer him to the Gla, Sa- linas and Sacramento We could give him the names of others but it is unnecessary to one who attempts to write about a country of which he knows nothing, There are few states or Territories in the Union that possess the same number of valuable rivers; and the only result of such statement as made by "Gila is is reutadon, and the establishment ofthe truth
 We will conclude our reply in our next mum Der
