THE Union and AneTieaa may not be
conscious of the fact, but the people hsve
seen and read and heard so much of the
purchase and sale Of legislative bodies
that it was thought possible that Tonnes
see might not be wholly exempt from the
operation Of influences which hsvs made
Isw-gfvers of other States the supple tools
of railroad and bond-hoiding combina-
tons. Therefore the paragraph quoted By
the Union and american from the Az

shaped by q sparkling stream Of gold
turned in gentle currents through halls Of

THE only authority under which the
President can interfere with the domestic
affairs Of State, is given by that clause OF
the constitution which provides that
The United States shall guarantee TO every
State In the Union a republican form OF gov

against INVASION; and, on application OF the
legislature, or OF the executive when the leg
stature cannot be c~onvened), against domestic
violence.

WE have certain admiration for officers of the United States who say Vincent Colyer's course is not the best for the people, but that it is better Hot to offend him, because he has power to wield and money to spend, and as long as he is so provided, they want to make share of the profits. We can't refrain from admiring such pat riotic servility.

From Mexico.

Our correspondent under date of September 29th, states that the people of northern Sonora have been scourged by the Apaches "until the moan of "despair comes to our ears on all sides for fathers, sons, brothers, "mothers, sisters and children mur- "dered in cold blood by the red devils "-such as Colyer thinks can be civil "ized and Christianized."
 Generally the country was quiet, but revolutionary parties, in the State of Sinaloa, under one Canedo were making some trouble and meeting with little success, though the State authorities feel able to quell all law lessness. Cahedo had captured one mail and attacked some towns and Iriarte is captured. Sonora feeling the danger, is preparing for any con- flict which may arise.
Arizona citizen., 1871-10-14
THE DIFFERENCE.

Indian Peace Agents travel about over Arizona under strong escorts of armed troops, and have public money placed at their disposal to sate the greed of the Apaches and induce them to not commit outrages upon said Agents. Citizens cannot have escorts to protect them, nor can they afford to give up what little property they have to induce the Indian to not kill or rob them. The Indian Agents being per fectly secure in their persons and have only government property in their possession, they report the Indian peaceably disposed; the citizens being ever insecure in both person and prop erty, and constantly seeing neighbors killed or robbed or both, report the h. dians hostile. Under the circum- stances, whose reports are most cer- tainly truthful!
Arizona citizen., 1871-10-14
NATIONAL INCONSISTENCY.

When a citizen or citizens assassin ate mail carriers. rob or destroy the mails, waylay peaceable and law abiding men in government service, or people generally on her territory and under the national flag, the United States has quite uniformly punished or endeavored to punish them, and many such are to-day serving out terms of imprisonment therefor, or are in some way curtailed of ordinary civil rights. The Apache Indians of Arizona are now and have been within few months, repeatedly guilty of the aforementioned crimes, and for weeks past the United States-or Vincent Colyer in the name of the United States has been expending large sums of the peoples money to secure interviews with these murderers and robbers with the sole view of assuring them of the governments immediate readiness to richly reward them, and that they shall thereafter be protected by the public guns, fed and clothed at the public expense, and to demonstrate to them that the greater the robber and murderer, the more munitcent rewards he would receive-if he be an Indian.
 How is this for national honor and consistency?

MIGUEL's Coyoter6 Apaches have been true to their pledges of peoce and friendship; Es-cul-ta-see-la's have by acts of theft and murder violated all their promises; the former though very poor and needy, received scarce ly any of the governments bounty at the hands of Colyer, and the latter were magnificently supplied in con- parison. Miguel observes the fact that the worst Indians are treated best by government, and says that while the people generally are terrible ene- mics of the worst Indians, the gov ernment is the best friend of such. Miguel judges the government by the acts of Vincent Colyer.

A PRIVATE soldier at Crittenden has been inspired to indite 8 lengthy poem on Cachise's raid on that post and theft of cavalry horses some weeks ago. The poem has some merit-locally considerable; but at present our space must not be occupied by the labors of the muses. By and by we may find room for such inspirations, and in the meantime shall hold the manuscript subject to the authors order. We hope he will furnish THE. CITIZEN the cur rent local news in a plain, concise manner.
 All our correspondents will please bear in mind that there is one great and overshadowing question, vitslly affecting the welfare of Arizona, now prominent before the whole country. If the sadly farcical policy of Vincent Colyer prevails here, we frankly admit our belief that many years of bloodshed by cruel savages are still i. in store for Arizona, and to avert this , Ucs<--ibie calamity, we are determined to devote the larger share of our space while the danger continues. We are printing hundreds of extra papers and distributing them at our own ex- pense to journals and public men, in the hope that our fair and truthful statements may in some measure awaken a true sentiment abroad, and finally, before too late, influence those in power to act justly toward this long suffering people. Personal wishes and considerations must for the present take & secondary place in these col umnS.

PACIFIC RURAL PRESS. This is 16-page, weekly publication devoted to agricultural and all like pursuits and interests. It is published by Dewey & Co.,, at 33S Montgomery street, San Francisco, at $4 per year ; $2 50 for 6 months; $1 90 for $ months. Clubs of ten or more can have it at $3 per annum. The Rural Press is neatly printed with bold type.
 As & rule, we refuse to recommend our readers to buy any book or subscribe for any particular paper, but we en- phatically say that the farmers of Arizona will do we'll to invest few dollars in the Rural Press. It covers the whole range of subjects applicable to Arizona, and if our we'll informed farmers and stock growers would con- municate their experiences direct to that paper, we have no doubt but il would give this Territory a liberal share of attention and we assure oul agricultural friends here that little effort on their part as we suggest will abundantly repay them. Without tho slightest selfish motive except for Ari. zona, we advise farmers to subscribe for the Rural Press and write to i their experiences.
