still awakened in the Church Of Christ,

Many who at first looked Oh it with dis

are now convinced Of its great worth, and
are going into its cultivation very extern
sively. 1t has been satisfactorily tested
in this neighborhood, and most triumph
antly sustained its high reputation. A
great number of persons visited our
grounds last summer during the fruiting
season, among whom were not few Of
those who were ayowed unbelievers in it,
and, without q single exception, they
were amazed and delighted with the yig-

Cuba and Sonora.

The acquisition of Sonora is absolutely as important measure as the proposed purchase of Cuba. While government offers one hundred millions for Cuba, Sonora can be had for the debts due American citizens from Mexico. With security and proper management the gold and silver mines of Sonora would yield enough to buy Cubigin ten years. Cuba will cost vast sum of money and bloody war; Sonora may be had by marching three thousand men across the frontier. Cuba produces silver, su- gar, and tobacco so does Sonora Cuba has lovely climate; Sonora equals her in that re- spect The acquisition of Cuba is important as means of national defence Give us So- nora and we have an entry-port to the Treasury of the Continent. If we seize Cuba it brings upon us the hostility of other nations, while in tianity which ought to command the approval of the world, as we should erect order and peace instead of anarchy and war--relieve a people from misrule and oppression and extend the blessings of civilization where all is now distress andrapinel
 There can be founi in Sonora dozen silver mines, which if worked properly, will produce more revenue, annually, than all the sugar plantations of Cuba Why is it that these facts do not attract the attention of Congressmen Whyis 1t that government desires to ray one hundred millions for piece of property when a valuable a piece can be had for one-tenth that sum? Let the public press and our pub lie men examine this subject and it will be found that Sonora has the pest claim for an nexation.

Special Message from the President.

On the 18th of February the President sub. mitted to Congress psecial message asking to be entrusted with extraordinary power to use the forces of the country to protect the
 lives and property of fAmerican citizens when ever an emergency may require, such authority to be guarded and restricted as Congress might see fit
 The President goes on at length to show the necessity for such authority at the present time which he does in very clear and satisfac- tory manner, referring to several cases where American interests are constantly in danger, and in which the Executive would have no pow CT to secure redress In reference to our rela- tons with Mexico, the President says:
 The Republic South of the United States on this Continent has unfortunately been frequent ly in state of revolution and civil war ever since they established their independence As one or the other party has prevailed and obtain ed possession of the ports open to foreign commerce, they have seized and confiscated American vessels and their cargoes in an arbi- trary and lawless manner, and exacted money from American citizens by forced loans and other violent proceedings, to enable them to carry on hostlities.
 We trust that this message and the important change it proposed in our plan vf government received frsm Congress that earnest attention to which it was entitled. It is grave matter to place war making power in the hands of the President A reckless, ambitious man might plunge the country into troubles which half a century would not efface. Still, it would be highly proper for Congress to place limited power in the hands of the Executive, authoriz- ing him to take immediate redress for wrongs inflicted upon American citizens or property, when Congress was not in session, reporting all the facts to Congress as soon as it convened We shall look with great interest for the debates and action of Congress on this matter

 We have no doubt that if Senator Pugh should set himself toawork he could discover how a quarter ofa Apillion of dollars might be saved to government, annually, in the Department of New Mexico Abolish half the posts they are of no use-concentrate the troops, save the double rations and transportation, and re- qure the Commander of the Department to give out his corn, flour, forage, and beef con- tracts to citizens in the vicinity of the posts By that means, if the posts are of no other ben eft they will encourage agriculture and bus- ness in their vicinity, and give the inhabitants some little recompense for risking their lives and property, away from civilization.

 " The state of the Republic, distracted with civil wars, induced me to carry forbearance to it's utmost limit in regard to the wrongs and in- dignities to which the British residents have been subjected at the hands of the two contend ing parties. They have at length carried it to such an extent that have been obliged to give instructions to the Commander of the naval forces in those seas to demand, and Unnecessary, to enforce reparation"
