4 A LoCAL.-New Years presents made year
ago are, many of them, still cherished and val
ued as highly as when first received; but what
of good resolutions, made at the begin
;. of 1870, have long since been disregarded,
and even forgotten, until another new year sug-
gested a renewal of the same and, perhaps, ad-
ditional ones In this business of resolving
there is, to nearly every one, great satisfaction
When gazing away into the future, swelling with
good intentions, and looking with satisfaction
on the coming days and hours to be so well
spent, and the vices little and great) to be left
behind with old 70, gray and bald, it is perhaps
unkind to invite retrospect; but if a look at
the stranded hulk of the ship loaded with good
resolutions twelve months ago will help to COM
mand the heavily freighted craft just launched,
that backward glance will not prove unprofita-
I bile.

IA Rev. Mr.. HALLS LECTURE.-Rev. Mr.. Hall,
in his lecture on temperance last evening, pre-
sented some very interesting views. He thought
we should make little Roadway against intem-
perance until we recognized the fact that there
is a natural and legitimate desire at the bottom
of the passion for drink. As we study history
for thousands of years back we find everywhere
craving for stimulus. Where natural desire
shows itself in other parts of human nature we
do not try TO crush it out, but to prevent it from
getting the mastery over the will, and from
working in illegitimate ways. Thus, in the case
of the attractions of sexual intercourse, we do
not try to kill the passion; limit its exercise
land allow the propriety of its exercise in the
state of marriage The spirit of gambling, in
like manner finds proper exercise in the risks
of business.
Mr.. Hall would not say that men need alco-
q holic stimulants. The effects of alcohol upon
the system are not yet fully understood. 1t is
for the man Of science to study these effects, and
when it is settled what they are the knowledge
will be of great use to us. We do not make
sufficient allowance for the strength of the pas
sion for drink. 1t is not enough to legslate in
the interests of temperance. Something can be
done by closing dram-shops. The great reliance
of community must be upon those institu-
lions which educate and elevate. 1t is not
enough to legislate. Much of the legislation on
the subject is very foolish, Moral appeals are
not sufficient. Intemperance is very attractive.
1T must be met with our best weapons.
It would do much to help the temperance
cause if it could be shown that the effects of
alcohol upon the body are deeterous, and just
what these effects are. Attempts have been
made to do this. This is thc'right direction in
which to work. The main reliance, with this
knowledge, must be upon the gradual enlight.
ening and elevaiing influences OF our institutions
and instruments for education and moral and
religious elevation. The evil of intemperance is
enormous, and we must not expect to remove it
Ia day or generation. Its eradication must
be very gradual. We should not deal with this
mighty evil specifically as we do too often, but
attack 1t at its source and teach men to regu.
late their passions. We have only given one or
two of the ideas in this lecture 1t was very
Interesting, able and original production.

ARIZONA CITY.

From The Free Press of last Satur- day we condense as follows
 By order of the City Council the collection of taxes has been stopped until title to the townsite is obtained from the United States, which it is ex- pected will soon be accomplished.
 Dull times is announced in the same item wherein number of improve ments IS mentioned as going forward.
 City Marshal Fox had some time ago been placed under bonds on three charges to keep the peace, and his bondsmen having surrendered his bond, he is in jail awaiting trial. His recent dissipation and quarrel someness led to his present confne- ment.
 Thirty-seven tons of first-class ore were shipped to San Francisco per steamer Colorado, by Messrs. Tyng & Barney of Ehrenberg.
 Supervisor Finlay had resigned and Thomas Hughes was being urged for the vacancy.

Whitman in @ New Role.

Lieutenant Royal E. Whitman lately appears in new capacity or in an old one in public manner, and we "rise to explain"
 Last Sunday, Conception Begola brought to Tucson gray mare and a saddle, which he purchased from an Indian on the Grant Reserve. The mare was legally identified as that of Jose Francisco (Papago Indian), and the saddle that of Dolores Ortiz, the saddle being the same one rode by F. Sotelo when killed in the performance of his duty as United States mail rider near Tucson on September 13. Con- cepclon Begola brought in the orig inal of document of which this is a true copy:
 CAMP GRANT, A. T. Nov. 3, 1S71.- This Indian has permission to trade or sell his pony. R. E. WHITMAN,
 1st. Lieut.. Sd. U. s. Cav, In Chg.
 This shows Whitman as self con- stituted custodian of stolen property, by whose royal permission the thieves may sell the same to the lawful own CTS, and helps to explain why he pro- claimed himself an official liar in the following extract taken from a noted report of his on May 5, 1871:
 Whatever has been said by the press of this Territory, in regard to raids made by these Indians to stimulate the public mind to this atrocious butch cry, or whatever may still be said Tn its justification, will all be proven false under the light of 8 proper in- 
 THE CITIZEN never prior to May ,, charged that the Grant Indians con- mitted depredations, but it is clear now that it could have done so in truth and here we will say in behalf of the press of Arizona that proper investigation" has proven said press to have spoken truly of the government fed Indians about Goodwin, Apache and Grant and we may say of Whitman, too.

Coal Mine Near Camp Grant, &c

The Stars and Stripes of Auburn
 California, of October, refers to tht
 operations of party of prospector:
 who left last Summer for Arizona, an6
 says they write back very encourag- i9Gyl Speaking of the coal mine
 That paper says:
 It is about thirty-five miles from
 Camp Grant, and will probably be
 within twenty-five miles of the line of the Southern Pacific Railroad, in a section barren of other fuel, except in very limited quantities, for hundreds of miles. The vein, which they have traced for three to five miles, is twenty feet thick, and the coal is of excellent quality. Their location embraces three miles in length and one in width. They now propose to prospect for sil- yer and gold or any other substance that promises fair rewards.
 N As a matter of current history which we have been remiss in record ing, and for which we owe the afore- said party some excuse, we will now state that it was camped near Camp Grant at the time Colyer induced Captain Nelson to turn the guns of the nation against residents of Ari- zona as before recited in these columns, and that one of this California party, whose bosom must have been swelling with servile inclinations and @ dis position to show himself disgrace to American citizenship, volunteered to assist in the Colyer- Nelson outrage of preventing citizens of Arizona from quenching their thirst created in long march over desert, with view to develop our natural resources. The Stars and Stripes is properly pleased to hear of such party being out of it's own State. Our California exchanges are advised that this scrap Of history is not copyrighted by THE CITIZEN.
