"HOnOr thy Father and thy Mother"

None love you SO much as your father
and MOTHER none are so interested in fit
ting you to act well your part, and none
so anxious that you should be kept from
the evil Of the world in which you are,
and in which you are to live. If you leave
their roof, and go out from their counses
and advice, whom will you find to fill their
places? Who will love you with a purer
affection? Who will nurse you more con-
stantly when sick? You hear honeyed
words and fair speeches, as you pass along
in the sunshine and by pleasant places,
but who among all the herd will pity, be-
friend, comfort and sympathize with you
when the sun hath withdrawn its shining
and the days of darkness have come, as an
affectionate mother or kind father Let
no distance hinder you from giving them
a large place in your affections. No CONT
nents though they be between you, should
hide from the minds eye their forms and
their familiar countenances. No rolling
ocean should blot out the memory of their
WORTH or the remembrance of their kind
ness. ECHO.

LACE WEAvING.-The Cincinnati Com
merclM says: ''ln corner of the ladies'
department sits little lace weaver, whose
home is in Cincinnati. She does not COM
pete in tineness of thread or in breadth of
design with the costly work that is near
her, but she makes a lace that will wear,
and that is not wanting in tasteful design
The operation of weaving is an interesting
one, and it keeps the little girl surrounded
all the time with groups of visitors. The
girl is about twelve years old. She cannot
speak English. She is seated with
cushion before her resembling a mutf On
this is pinned piece of card board an inch

aged by these bits of wood, the tension
being sufficient to allow the wood to hang
by the thread when necessary. Pins are
stuck in the intersections of the lines of
the pattern, and the little weaver passes
the wooden bobbinS back and forth through
her nimble fingers with a dexterity that is
marvellous. 1t battles the most steady eye
to see anything like order in the shutting
and tapping of the threads, yet the little
girl works away apparently without
thought about what she is doing. In

Benny heads to smooth and bless?
When does love give up the chase?

What the Soldiers are Doing North.

What the Soldiers are Doing North.
 We are pleased to see in The Miner that the Apache thieves about Prescott
 begin to find stealing and murdering a little dangerous. Sergeant Stauffer, belonging to Colonel Mason's Con- pany, K Troop, Fifth Cavalry, has upon three occasions followed their trails with all the tenacity of blood hound, until he has overtaken them and recovered the stock. We are pleased to see that he was properly complimented by the Department commander. He has the thanks of the people of this Territory. Colonel Mason has an excellent company and we'll deserves to command it. If ever the gallant Fifth have chance, we predict that they will fully sustain their we'll earned reputation. We notice that Capt. Nickerson, Twenty third Infantry, Lieutenant Boyle, Twenty-frst Infantry, and Lieuten- ant Wessendorf, of the First Cavalry, with thirty men, were in their saddles within fifteen minutes after the news reached there of the murder of Putz and the capture of 2,O0O sheep, and never stopped until they had recap tured nearly all the stolen property. That looks like business-such men and this kind of medicine would have given Arizona peace long, long ago. Captain Wilson and Lieutenants Hein and Woodson, with fifty men belong ing to I Troop, First Cavalry, and A Troop, Fifth Cavalry, followed a large band of Indians who had stolen seventy beef cattle. After a hard chase they succeeded in killing one Indian and re-capturing most of the cattle.

IN La Estrella de Occidente, pub-
 ]ished at Ures, of May 31, we see the
 subject of railroad to run from
 Guaymas to the Arizona line, is en-
 crossing the attention of the Sonora Legislature. It seems that the ques-
 ton of State sovereignty has been
 the subject of much discussion in the
 negotiations that are being made or
 attempted. with MT. Edgerton the agent of foreign capitalists. We are not advised of the exact concessions desired by MT. Edgerton, but believe the State authorities have decided that 1t will be necessary to obtain the con- suit of the General Government before lands can be granted in aid of the enterprise. The press and people of Sonora recognize the fact that without railroads their country cannot prosper or improve, and the only point at issue is how to best secure the completion of the desired enterprise. It is 8 question of first importance to the interest of the Texas Pacific Railroad. With this and other connections to the south, a large portion of the trade of Sonora, Durango and Chihuahua would pay tribute to this road. This vast area of territory, immensely rich in mines, agriculture and grazing. if once penetrated by railroads, would attract 8 population and develop re- sources little dreamed of at the pres ent time. Undoubtedly the foresight in such matters that is universally conceded to Col. Scott, will cause him to run out branches as speedily as pos sible to tap the trade of this immense country, and whether MT. Edgerton succeeds or not, the whistle of the locomotive on the Texas Pacific will surely wake up sleepy Mexico to the of preparing to take 8 :ide or of getting out of the way of he train.

THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK.

Although the people of this Terri tory have no voice in the coming
 Presidential election, we nevertheless
 feel an interest in the contest and
 watch with care all the moves that
 are made on the political chess board.
 Never in the history of our govern ment has there been such confusion
 in parties, such uncertainty in parti- sans, and such doubt as to what the
 events of few days may bring forth.
 The slavery question killed the old
 Whig party. Upon its ruins the Re-
 publican party rose, and the lines be-
 tween it and the Democratic party
 were squarely drawn. The principles
 between the two parties were as wide
 apart as the poles, the issues were un-
 mistakable; and upon these issues
 the Republican party have three times
 carried the nation, the Democratic
 party each time showing great power
 and rallying around it's standard
 support that seemed rather to prefer defeat under its banner than success under any other.
 At the last Presidential election General Grant was elected mainly in gratitude for his services as General of the army. He had never been a politician and had but little experience in statesmenship, but the people will ed that he should be President and it was done. On assuming the Chief Executive office of the nation, he stated that he had no policy adverse to the will of the people-that the credit of the nation must be main tained and economy must be practiced in all departments of the government. It is probable that we have never had a President who has studied the will of the people, as expressed through their representatives, and given 8 more cheerful compliance with that expressed will than President Grant. He stated that if the people, through their representatives, passed bad laws, rigid enforcement would soon make them so odious that the same power would change them. As to the two latter propositions, the apprecia- tion of our currency, the readiness by which we are enabled to make loans at greatly reduced rate of interest, and the rapidity in which the public debt has been paid off with the taxa tion greatly reduced, is stronger ar gument that he has redeemed his promise in this respect than any words that can be used. That there have been mistakes made and some bad men placed in office, is undoubt- edly true, and such will always be the case under any administration called upon to govern such vast country by nearly forty millions of people.
 It has been apparent for many | that President Grant possessed | the confidence of a large majority of | the people who elected him, and that undoubtedly he would again receive the nomination. Opposition to him in his own party has mainly arisen from the fact that he did not possess the power to appoint all who applied for offices. Ex-Senator Gwinn once said, while Senator from California, that the appointing power gave more trouble and entailed more curses a hundred times over than the influences gained by it." We believe there is much truth in this saying. The mal- contents of all grades and shades met It Cincinnati and the result is known. Rennblican. or as OUT Democratic
