|. ARIZONA MATrERs.-The Washing
ton correspondent Of the Alta of JAN
unary 18th says:
Governor Stafford, Of Arizona. arrived here
a few days since, and is the guest Of ex.Gov.
crnor Mccormick, the present Delegate for
that Territory. Yesterday, these gentlemen,
accompanied By Senator Stewart. Of Nevada,
waited upon General Sherman, the Secretary
Of War. and the President. md with each
had a lengthy conversation upon Arizona
affairs. General Sherman said, MS he has
often done before. that no more troops could
now be sent to the Territory, and doubted
the expcdisncy Of volunteers, saying they
were always very expensive. He, however,
did not seem disposed to oppose any steps
Congress would take in the matter. To the
proposal that the Eighth Cavalry be kept in
Arizona, now that its officers and men are
familiar with the country, he said the regu-
lations Of the service demanded that the
change to New Mexico should be made, but
he thought the Third Cavalry, having had
much experience in Indian fighting, would
be efficient. The change Of regiments will
occur during the spring-half OF each NOV.
ing at a time. General Sherman expressed
his willingness to have Arizona and South
California made 4 distinct Department il
Alaska could be given up. There are now
seven posts in that country, and he deems
one sufficient. General Sherman spoke
highly Of General Devin and other officers in
Arizona, and said the troops there had
marched more than did his.men who followed
him from Atlanta to the sea.

SACRAMENTO, January 2S.- About
noon yesterday q personal rencontre
between Senator Beige. Of San Frall-
cisco, and Frank McCoppin, late Mayor
of that city, took place at the Capitol.
Beige, it appears, made some remarks
in the Senate n few days since relative
to Grand Jtftles, and to Illustrate his
argument, spoke Of the McCoppin-
Pickering libel suit. McCoppin took
umbrage at the remarks, and published
n communication in 4 San Francisco
paper Oh the subject. Beige rose to n
question of privilege in the Senate
Immediately after it was called to
order yesterday morning, and referring
to this communication, explained his
remarks previously made. Shortly
afterward he passed out of the Senate
chamber and met McCoppin ut the
restaurant in the front portion of the
building, when u few words passed
between them, ending in Beige being
struck by the eX-Mayor. 1t was ru-
mored last evening that 4 duel was
likely to grow out of the matter.
[By thunder! but there Is a quicker
way of settling difficulties of that kind

THE sparrows in the New York
parks. it is reported, were so thor
oughly deceived by the recent mild
weather rs to commence to build their
nests. and to make other arrangements
to commence housekeeping. The sud-
den cold weather, however, has put a
stop to the collection of materials, and
the sparrows have again turned their
attention to winter pursuits. This
incident shows that the behavior of
birds and animals cannot be implicitly
relied upon as a guide for the severity
or mildncss Of the seasons.

AN IMPORTANT ENTERP PRISE. Yesterday al
ternoon we made visit to the cigar factory O
Mr.. G. H. Stebbins, No 800 Congress street
and were surprised at the extent of the bust
ness carried on by him. No one would imag.
inc from entering the store that he was enter.
| ing mandatory, for there is nothing of the
kind visible further than the usual stock of 2
large retail dealer. By the kind invitation Of
Mr.. Stebbins we were taken to building in
| the rear of the store, where first we inspected
large bales of Cuban tobacco, which is used fol
filings, and bales of best Connecticut leaf to-
bacco for wrappers. We were then taken up
stairs, where were arranged elegant looking
cigars all ready to be packed in boxes. We
were then ushered into large room where
some sixteen workmen were busily employed
manufacturing cigars, which was very inter
esting process; and from thence proceeded to
another large room, where bevy of women
were employed in taking the stems from leaves
so that wrappings and filings might be with
out flaw. The workmen are at present turning
out about 1000 cigars per day.
Mr.. Stebbins has magnificent stock Of
meerschaum pipes of all sizes and prices, from
the $3.50 pipe, choice enough for Sultan, to
the smallest meerschaum made. He proposes
to commence today to sell off his stock of
meersch aums at prices lower than they were
ever before offered in this city, and we would
advise all our readers who desire to secure a
splendid article at a moderate price to avail
themselves of this opportunity.

DEFEAT OF CONSOLIDATION.
AUGUSTA, March 10.-In the Senate Mr..
Mayo of Piscataquis moved a reconsideration
of the vote whereby the Senate indefinitely
postponed the consolidation bill; whereuron
Mr.. Lang OF Kennebec moved to lay the motion
upon the table, at the same time stating to the
Senate that the friends of the measure had no
desiret to push the matter further, and promis-
ing that the motion should be allowed to slum-
Der. 1t was we'll known that the chief reason
which the friends of consolidation have urged
is that large amount of the bonds of both the
Maine Central and Portland & Kennebec
roads fall due during the present year, and
they argue that the new bonds to be issued to
supply their place ian be negotiated at a more
advantageous rate predicated upon the united
property of both roads than otherwise. Ac-
cordlnsly bill was framed allowing the roads
to issue their new bonds upon a Joint mort
gage, but after reflection it was considered
best to acknowledge defeat and retire grace
fully from the field. The lobby in this matter
has been strong one, embracing the best men
of the State The Senate having disposed of
the subject in this summary manner the
House will not be troubled with it.
