Improved Cabbage.

This portion of Arizona is great on produ- cing cabbage, potatoes and other vegetables. The gardens around Prescott are yet filled with huge heads, the breed of which, as a stock man would say, may be improved by Allowing these directions, which are caJdaged from the R'pGl Press, of San Francisco:
 "Takc large head of cabbage, strip off the outer leaf and slip of the bud found at the root of the leaf Take this bud and simply set in rich dirt, like any other plant. The result will be a fine growth of early cabbage plants, with heads larger and sounder than be raised in the ordi- Dary way"

A Second Blow.

The blow struck against the Apaches by Captain J. w. Mason, is the second visita tion of punishment to their treachery, since the Quaker policy was abandoned. General Crook intends to redeem his word to smite where he fails to conciliate. few more cases of chastisement like that bestowed by Captain Mason, and we shall probably find these Indians suing pitifully for peace. Where terms are granted, they should in every in stance be disarmed and forced to cultivate not only friendly relations with the whites, but the soil also, to gain for themselves an hones, support.-Saa Eancisco Call, Oct. s.

Interesting to Dealers in Leaf
 Tobacco.

The Act of June 9th, 1872, is prohibitory in its operations so far as retail dealers Tn leaf tobacco are concerned, and will occasion some inconvenience to many merchants m Arizona who have been accustomed to buying Sonora leaf tobacco and selling it by the pound to consumers, and those who make it up into oicarritos. The evident intention of the law is to force all such dealers to close their bus mess and to concentrate the tobacco trade, so that the revenue from tobacco and dealers m it. may be moro easily and certainly collect ed, as will be seen by the following:
 OFFICE OF SUPERVISOR OF INTERNAL
 REVENUE, DISTRICT of California, Nevada,
 Oregon, and Utah, Idaho Washington and
 Arizona Territories.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 9th, 1872. Wholesale dealers paying S25.00 per annum special tax are expressly prohibited by law, under severe penalties, from selling leaf tobacco in any quantity to any purchasers except-1st. To other licensed dealers in leaf; or, 2d, To licensed man. ufacturers of snuii, tobacco, or cigars or Sd, To persons known 10 be purchasers of leat tobacco for export.
 All purchasers of leaf in any quantity, and all sales In any quantity to customers in either of the three classes specified, must be recorded on the day of actual receipt delivery in the book pre- scribed by law for the dealers use. This book is daily record of actual receipts and deliveries only Dealcrs. wAo also manufacture. should charge in themselves, in their textbooks, all leaf made mn by them which they have already entered there in as bought

The way to blow out kerosene lamp, with accuracy and without danger, and thus render obituary notices more scarce, is to blow sharp long breath across the top of the chimney, after turning the wick down. This creates an up draft which extinguishes the light.

THE letter Of Judge DAVIS, Of the SUI
preme Court, who was recently nominated
for the Presidency by the Y, orkingmen's
Convention, so-called, is a singularly mex
phe't and unsatisfactory document. He
simply says, in view Of the present polti-
cal situation, that mo is neither at liberty to
accept nor dechao the nomination. This
reminds us Of tie Illinois chap who was
out gnanifS o'lo day, and, being little
pear-sishtsd, damned eway at calf in the
oeaSaes which he mistook for deer, but
'pftrnatel'J didn't bring down his "game."
his coplpanion, coming up, inquired:
What luck 2" "Why, l fred at that
COMPOUNDED calf, not knowing whether it
was calf Or deer and SO you see | just
took aim in such way as to miss it if it
was a calf angi hit it if it was a deer and

1T may be interesting to some of our
chronological readers, and especially our
lady scientists in that line, to know that it
takes sixty-fiye thousand cochineal insects
to make one pound in weight, and that the
: mount imported into this country last
, year was l,S49,S42 pounds. The annual
slaughter of these harmless insects, there
fore, to supply caranine for American ladies'
toilets, and the various dyes and tints for
their ribbons, feathers and dresses of red,
crimson, scarlet, magenta, solferino and
other similar colors, actually reaches 12O,-
239, 100, 900 in number! These figures are
perfectly awful, but some of the uses of
carmine are worse.

THE DOG.I,Aw


In what shape is the Dog-law The
first bill introduced we know was killed !:
but the second, or third, or whatever num-
Der 1t may be, was up in the House some
time ago, and efforts We're making to ex-
tend its provisions to other counties than
those enumerated in it, as well as to strike
out certain counties it did enumerate. But
what has become of it? Are the people of
Virginia to eat dog or mutton the coming
year? We prefer to eat mutton ourself,
and let dog eat dog'' if he will. This in
difference on the part Of the General As
sembly to meet the demands of the people
on this question of ''dog or mutton" SO vital
to hundreds and thousands of our farmers.
would be inexplicable anywhere else ex-
cept in Virginia legislature. Here it is
| only so to those who do not understand the
character and calibre of the men who op-
pose the law IN that deliberatiye body.
They all act as though they were inspired
with the same dctestation of sheep that
John Randolph was, who declared III Con-
gress that he would go any time half mile
out of his way to ''kick Sheep" This
might have been good craftsmanship in
Randolph's time, when ''wool" was only
incidentally a staple in Virginia, and dogs
were held as valuable for the suppression
even of this incidental WOOL" But there
is no reason why this old Virginia grudge
against sheep should be fostered any longer.
Let us have the best dog-law possible at
the hands of this Legislature.

MR.. FISH is a man of sense. He fully
appreciates the situation. He knows that
the Washington government, since its mer-
CHESS tyranny in the South, is in no condi-
ton to enter on war with foreign ma
ton. For the one Ireland that might har-
rass England, he breads the possibility of
having half dozen or more Irelands on
his own hands, Wing. 49,.
Does our contemporary mean to be
understood as saying, that, in the event of
war between the United States and Eng
land, there would be half dozen or more
States i'll the South, Virginia included
among the number, who would turn against
the government of the United States, tear
down its flag again as at Fort Sumter in
1861, and harrass the government, as Ire
land might be justified in doing in the case
Of England, were she engaged in war
with any other power? We put this ques-
ton thus Enthusiastically, as we desire to
have perfect understanding Of the situa-
ton, so far as that journal is concerned.
We have noticed this covert and BASTARD
ly threat in more Southern journals than
one of late; but have regarded it as the
result of spenetic humor that would pass
off with the accumulation of bile on the
Southern Democratic stomach, and that no
greater evil would come of it than a few
eructations of uncomfortable wind. For we
had regarded this expression of sentiment
as nothing more serious, in the form and
shape in which came to us.
''In noble minds some dregs remain,
Not yet purged OFF, of spleen and sour disdain.'
All this we expected as the result of that
unhealthy condition of the Southern liver
which cropped out in revolutionary scces-
sion in 1861. But the theme has been
harped upon SO long, and upon SO many
different strings, that we are getting sick
of it entirely, and desire to know whether
it is really the result of chronic and nlcu-
rable distemper in the Democratic mind of
the South or not. We do not believe that
this is the feeling Of those in the South who
cheerfully staked their fortunes, their lives,
ami their honor upon the issue of the rebel
lion, and who, when the cause was lost, as
bravely laid down their arms as they had
taken them up; and who afterwards re.
newed their oaths of allegiance to the F ed
eral government, and their fealty to- the
"old flag" The case may be different
with those "bomb-proof" chaps ana others.
who lacked the moral courage to 90 into
the fight, AS they did the courage to come
out of it like MEN.

suffrage, who wish TO keep the issue clear from
entanglng alliances with other reforms and the
endless host of individual whirns and vagaries--
who would pursue it with the same singleness of
aim that marks the movement in England, and
the temperance and other special reforms in this
country, have established weekly paper, the
Womans Journal, published in Boston and Chi
cago and edited by Mrs. Livermore, Mrs. Lucy

accomplished friends of the cause. The No

appearance, while the variety and spirit of its
articles, and the dignity, selfrespect, good
humor, and earnestness of its tone, will show
how profoundly mistaken are those who suppose
that folly and extravaganza are necessarily char
acterstic of the discussion of the question The
