Here is poetic ''personal, cut from Western newspaper: Wanted-A brave-hearted man, who has buf- feted the storms of life and did not tremble for the issue when the troubles came; must be refined and respectable; middle-aged and discreet.
 Wilt thou leave me in my anguish
 Cropping on through life alone?

 With no arm around me thrown? Address Widow.

The Rev. Edmurd Darrow of Waterford, placed qnite large sum of money beneath his pillow. In the morning when he rose, he sought for the money but found it not. This disturbed him. He imagined that corner of the curtain to one of the bed room windows had been pulled aside so that the movement of the occupants could be watched by the burglar, and the money had been stolen. He sent for detective, and everybody was looking for tracks, when the lady of the house made more minute examination of the pillow and found the money in the pillow case, where the clergyman had placed it. And there was great joy.

"Speed. Under the caption of "Speed" we published an item two or three weeks since, concerning the time consumed Q2 days,) in getting package from this Yi'- lage to New Milford after placing it in charge of the Adams Express Company. E. G. Westcott Esq.,, Superintendent of the New England division, saw the item and immediately investigated the matter, say ing ID his note of inquiry to us that the company did not sanction such delays or negligence on the part of it's employees; i; that it was very jealous of it's reputation, etc., etc., all of which betokens healthier state of management than we had supposed existed, and is 8 fact which not only are we patrons of the Adams Express Go. cannot but regard with satisfaction. The investi- gation of Mir. Westcott resulted in ascer- taining that the package was delivered into the hands of their agent in New Milford the same day it was shipped, and although called for three times during the interim, the answer always received by the party to whom addressed was ''Nothlng here for you," the agent now saying that ''they might have called when happened to be out of office, and those that did not know have given the answer" This of course explains the matter and places it exactly where it belongs. The company has a large field to manage, and it endeavors to leave nothing undone to have all business entrusted to their myriads of agents execu- ted promptly and well, and, considering the magnitude of their business, it is won. derful almost that there is so little jar in their machinery and that so few mistakes and delays do occur.

MORE INDIAN TROUBLES.
Attack Upon Three Passengers.

A party of three gentlenen-Dr.
J. w. Jones, and Joe and Mike
Goldwater, all Of Ehrenberg-left
Prescott in the latter part of last
week, on their way home. These
gentlemen were travelling in two
buggies. They had not travelled
more than fourteen miles-in the
vicinity Of Mint Valley-when
they were attacked by q band of
not less than thirty Indians, sup
posed to be the ever nurderous
Apaches. The three gentlemen of
course could offer no resistance,
and their only means Of escape
was to outran them. The Indians
pursued them about four miles
on the road, when, fortunately,
they met a party CT whites travel
ing in the direction of Prescott.
which caused the savages to aban-
don the chase, and in their turn
to seek security in their mountain
holds. During this cowardly attack
Joe Goidwater was shot in the
back, somewhere near the shout
der blade; his brother, Mike, had
two balls put through the rim OF
his hat, and Dr.. Jones escaped
with only 4 few bullet holes
through his shirt and coat. They
drove to Skull Valley, about eigh-
teen miles, where Or. Jones ex-
amined the wound received by
Mr.. Goldwater, probcd it, but, up
to the next day, when the buck
hoard came by, the ball had not
been found.

The Overflow.

The minds Of our people are
again at rest. The danger that
threatened many Of our citizens is
now over. The water, since last
Monday, has been receding at the
rate of two and three inches per
day, and we will venture to pre-
dict that within q week, unless a
second rise takes place in the
mean time, our flooded streets
will be dry where, o week ago,
four feet Of water stood. This flood
is very beneficial to our farmers, as
they depend upon it every year
for the raising of their crops.
Without an overflow, we would be
like San Diego, Los Angeles, and
many other counties in California
without rain.
The damage caused by the pres
ent flood, aside from the falling of
a few stick houses, is comparative
ly small, but we deem ourselves
very fortunate that the Gila river
did not furnish its usual quota of
water, in which case the whole
town, no doubt. would have suf-
fered from it.
The town Of Arizona City, how
ever, does not need all this water
running through its streets, and
we are surprised that our enter
prising citizens have not provided
against this threatening danger
long since. It can be stopped at
a comparatively small expence.
-Four thousand dollars, at the ut
most, would build q leyee, where
needed, that would make the in
habitants within the town limits
entirely recure from all overh0ws.

it was a difficult task ~for the

nearly an hour, and having ac-
cOmplished but o short distance on
his route-abOut one rod-he gave
up in dispair. The boat came
rushing down with the stream,
until it struck the bridge in front
Of Nissen & Co., when the beat
upset and its live cargo went to
the bottom. After eXtricating
himself, he left for home, wiser
and a "Wetter" man.
