FROM MARICOPA COUNTY.

FROM MARICOPA COUNTY. Interesting Letter on the Agricultural Pro
 duets and Prospects of Maricopa County
 -What the People Want to Knoo.
 PHEN1x, A. T., September 8, 1871. In accordance with your request lex cept as to time), I send you the follow ing:
 Number acres of barley sown, 2, 200 i; average yield l,2OO pounds-good.
 Wheat, number of acres, 1900 :; average yield, 1,3OO pounds-good.
 Corn, number of acres, 700, which is not yet harvested. Much uf it looks we'll, but as we have had little rain, we do not look for large crop.
 Sweet potatoes, 75 acres. Not yet harvested. Many of them planted too late.
 A great difference in the yield of crops on adjoining farms led to the inquiry of-What caused the differ ence! A few questions in every case satisfied me that the cause of the light crop was want of care in seeding or irrigating or both. am of the opin- ion that more injury has been done to the crops by too much water than by too little, and find that my opinion is shared by many of the farmers.
 It seems to be impossible to raise a good crop of corn here unless we have rains. I think that the dry, hot winds and sand storms are the princi- pal cause of failure. Sweet potatoes seem to be we'll adapted to this climate, and their growth is remarkable when put out in good time.
 About 200 acres of beans have been planted. At least half of them will amount to nothing. Unless the late planting does better than the early, we shall have no beans for market outside this settlement.
 Garden vegetables of almost every variety do well when they are culti- vated with proper care, and an abund- ance of them have been raised here this season.
 Several vineyards have been started here and promise well. Only two have borne grapes this season, and although it is but the third year since the planting of the cuttings, 1 never saw vines more prolific.
 About 5000 fruit trees have been planted here the past season, and those which arrived in good condition have rarely died. With only one years experience, we cannot tell what kinds of fruit will do best, or whether all will succeed. The growth is not large for the first season. They have taken a long rest through the Summer and the fall growth may be greater than we expect.
 I have written up this letter in great haste and with many interruptions.

ARIZONA TRADE.-Messrs. Smith & Craigue, since the visit of Mir. Craigue of that firm, to Arizona, have been doing a steadily increasing busi- ness in that Territory. Yesterday they shipped a lot of wines and liquors weighing over 12,OO0 pounds to diff ferent firms doing business along the Yuma and Tucson road in Arizona. Messrs. Smith & Craigue deserve great credit for the enterprise displayed by them in opening this trade with our Arizona neighbors.
 Messrs. Pauly & Sons dispatched, yesterday, to 4. & l.. Zeckendorf, of Tucson, about four tons of merchan- disc. The freighting business with Arizona is beginning to revive little :; a large shipment to Messrs. Richard & Co. of Sanford is expected shortly, which will be forwarded at once on its arrival.-[San Diego Union, Sep tember F.

The Wisconsin State Journal says: 1--WE
read in democratic papers about the tendency
toward GENERALIZATION, and the danger of re-
publican rule. But the people understand
these things. They pay little attention to the
repetition Of phrases that have been learned
by heart and are repeated with parrot-like per-
sistency. They know there is no threatening
danger ahead. They see that this administra-
ton is honest and economical; jealous of our
rights as nation and in favor of peace. But
when the authorities of city succumb to the
dictstion of a mob, and citizens are denied
their right to assemble and parade, there is
no need of long leaders to arouse the people.
They are ready to speak and act boldly, for
there is danger ahead; that the reign of law
is over and mob rule must bear sway, unless
they call on their chief officer to act The
people move with vigor when real danger
threatens"
