 ter reaching the cars. made every
 prominent point, and nearly all
 obscure ones within two minutes of
 the published time. Thus in seven days to this city, I reached the hotel coach here within minute of the hour I left it for the Oakland Ferry in San Francisco. A journey of this kind is not without its available les sons for life use. No one whines about the beginning, and the end comes soon enough for nearly all. The necessary or actual troubles of life are often groundless anticipations or ex- aggerated realities. A genuine busi- ness man once said to me that there was plenty of fun in this world if it were only hunted out and worked up, and that otherwise it was as scarce as money in "hard times;" as matter of fact, he insisted that while fun was abundant and attainable, it was only iberally possessed and realized by the same perseverance, and determination which most men display in accumulat- ing cash or its equivalent. It is now and then worth ones time to reflect upon these facts, for otherwise many will worry themselves to death to pos sess wealth with scarcely an hour of the enjoyment its requirement is SUD- posed to bring.
 These hints will be serviceable to overland travellers, if they have sense enough to apply them. The overland trip can easily be made so as to con- bine recreation for mind and eye with new acquaintances to be re- afterwards with continual pleasure and something to advantage in business concerns.

WE have received 8 communication from our correspondent at Sanford, but owing to press of other matter we have only room for the following condensed items:
 The farmers are nearly through cut ting grain, and some are threshing.
 Many Papago Indians are employ ed in the harvest field at an average price of one dollars per day and board. Their women glean what is left.
 The Indians have been in the habit of collecting about town and purchas- ing liquor from some bad men and getting drunk. It had become such an intolerable nuisance that Judge Page and the citizens determined to stop it. A Mexican was caught in the act and find $25-the full extent of the fine under the Territorial law. Representing attorney in this case declares that in his legal opinion the criminal is still liable under the laws of the United States, and as the at torney is o near relative of Black stone, his opinion is entitled to con- sideration. Certainly no punishment that can be inflicted either now or hereafter Is to severe.
 Our correspondent says since our favorable notice of Sam Wise (rela- tive to his capacity to run a circus, Sam. entertains strong desire to go into the business, but wishes to obtain the services of the editor of THE CIT- ZEN for a clown. We doubt our abil- ity, but as almost any other position in life is preferable to that of an edi- tor, if Samuel has the stamps, he will meet with but little difficulty in en- ticing us into the ring"

GEORGE WILSON writes us from Mineral Park, Mohave county, that Hardy's mill is giving good satisfac- tion to the miners and is constantly employed. Considerable difficulty has been experienced in obtaining fire material for the furnaces, but this diff ficulty will be soon remedied. All the mines are prospecting well and a new discovery called the Hidden

EX-PREsIDENT JOHNSON.

Andrew johnson reached this city yes
terday. He seems to be looking in good
spirits. His future course is looked for
ward to with deep interest in Tennessee as
he must hereafter have Il powerful intiu-
ence over the Conservative Union vote
which now holds the balance of power in
this State. The Nashville Banner pub
fishes conspcuously a communication in
reference to the EX-President that may be
authoritative. 1t says:
-.s'If the democratic masses in Tennes-
see will abandon forever the leaders who
carried the State to ruin in 1861, and again
attempted ii in 1872, and rc-organize with
Union, National men, upon the basis of
the Union-it must and shall be preserved,
and will allow the people to shape party,
instead of following a party made up of
tricksters--the sc!Ec0nStitutcd agents Of
the people then, 1t will no doubt be his
pleasure to act with them.
1t is due, further, to Mr.. Johnson, to
say that, while he made the best fight he
could against General Grants Administra-
ton in the late canvass, and while he has
differed with this Administration in
many things, he has the inclination and
courage TO give the incoming Admiaistrd-
ton q fair trial before condenaning it, and
whatever he approves in that Admnistra-
ton he will openly commend"

BOSTON AND CHICAGO.

The recent disastrous fire in Boston sug- |
gests some interesting facts concerning the
recupcration of Chicago from the terrible
fire last year. 1t appears from the statis-
tics of the twelve months since the fire,
compared with those of the year 1870, that
the receipts of grain have been twenty
eight per cent. greater; that the wholesale
trade has advanced from S4O2, 100000 to
$780, 900 600, while the value of the manu-
featured products has increased more than
one-third. The rebuilding of the new
Chicago displays similar evidence of the
indomitable spirit of her people. Nearly
eight miles Of permanent, magnificent
buildings have been erected at cost of
more than $40, 100000, betrayed mainly by
enterpising citizens who never lost conf
dence in the advancement of their city.
Not a printing office was left by the fire in
all Chicago except few job offices, and all
the leading newspaper establishments were
destroyed. Now the city is amply supplied
with presses; all the principal journals
have revived, and are more prosperous
than ever.
There is no reason why the rebuilding
of Boston should not progress rs rapidly.
1t was the richest city on the continent, all
things considered. 1t has business long
established and one in which il can not suf-
fer much from the temporary interruption
the fire will cause. 1t was the great center
of wooden and leather interests. 1t holds
this trade by reason of the immense capt.
tai of those interested in it and of its proX-
unity to the large factories worked in those
interests. All these things indicate thai
Boston will recover even morerapidly thar
Chicago. It's narrow, crooked and numer
Gus streets will be changed, and the new
district be built on better and more COS
mopolitan plan.
