EDITOR UNION RECoRD The world in
Arizona still moves on in its usual style-a
style peculiarly its own, and human hearts are,
as ever, alternating between disappointed hopes
and joyous auiicpations. How changed the
scene with many California Volunteer, from
what it was one short year ago. Then, too
Arizona aud New Mexico were all the rage
now, the fever RACES the other way. A crisis
has been reached and safely passed. Soon,
you will hear the distant sound of approaching
footsteps, which, as they draw near to their
homes in the Golden State of their adoption,
will gather new impetus from the fresh breeze
that watts them proudly in through the Golden
Gate, and cools their feverish brows as they go
steaming up through the broad valley of the
Sacramento, to their homes among e-nooks
and corners of that part of creation, where the
morning sun smiles gently down, as in beauty
and grandeur be rises triumphant above the
summit of the snow-clad Sierras

But, tomorrow, Co. of the Seventh Infantry
and + of the Fourth start from this post for
California. At Date Creek, fifty five miles
from here, they will be joined by Compony G
of the Fourth. and proceed by way of Wicken
burg to Fort Yuma. From there, if trans
por,ation by water can be had, they will pass
down the Colorado, through the Gulf of Cali
fornia to the ocean, and thence TO San Fran
cisco. If not, they will sail across the desert
to Drum Barracks. How soon Company A
will receive marching orders" is not yet pub

thinking so. that our stay here will not extend

not being well supplied with gold, if it is

to the post to try to get little of Uncle Sans

Whether they get it or not, and if so, how, and
why. deponent saith not. But deponent does
further say, that one year ago, most of these
same citizens were loud-mouthed secessionists,
as he has been informed by soldiers who were
here then, and are still here; and deponent
further says, that, from their actions and
conduct, which be has witnessed himself, it is
bis firm belief that they have not yet expert
euced the necessary "change of heart" to entitle
them to the honor of being considered loyal
and honorable American citizens. Too chiy-
alrous, proud, and indolent, to work, they prefer
to live on the generous benevolence of the
Government they sought TO destroy, and seal
their base ingratitude by cursing the hand that
feeds them and the soldiers sent here for their
protection. But a day is coming which will
be full jolly for them. The Bully Fourteenth
(U. S. Regulars) is at Yuma, and four eompa-
nies have been ordered to this post, and if they
do not play the citizens OF Prescott lively

THE PROPOSED GERMAN PAR
LAMENT.

Berlin, July 19.-The Minister of the
Interior has had several interviews with
some of the leaders Of political parties in
Prussia in reference to the intention of
%convoking a German Parliament. A
certain number of prominent men Of the
National party, belonging to different
German States, were invited by the
Prussian Government to take part in
these Conferences. The semi-oficial
NOrd- Deutsche Zeitung in an article upon
this subject says:-
"The Prussian Government thought it
could rely upon all the persons invited to
these Conferences being animated by
patriotic feelings, and that they would
not be Influenced by the inSinuations Of
the organs of the Progressist party,
which have already thrown out hints
that the PruSsian Minister would control
the discussions of the Conference. The
PfussIan Government does not intend
any guardianship or control, but only de-
Slres to give the German nation the bene-
fit of its advice, and to consult for that
purpose, regardless of party politics,
those men who placed national unity
above all other considerations. Prussia
thus proves that it considers the settle
ment of the German question only from
the point of view Of the interests of
Germany"
