THERE are at this time, according to
statistics, a trife over seventeen hum
dred newspapers, daily and weekly
issued in the United States. Of these
il is safe to cay that not more than one
hundred are absolutely. selfsustaining
The rest are pensioners upon parties
churches and special interests OF one
kind and another. The reason for this
is that the modern system OF journal
ism, which is an exact science, has no,
yet asserted it's dominion. There are
not twelve men in Americs-there are
not twenty in the world-capable OF
handling what is known as a first class
daily newspaper. There are certainly
not exceeding twelve first class daily
newspapers in America. There might
be fifty. There ought to be hundred.
There will be many more than there
are. Unless the pneumatic tube is a
success, or there is invented some
method Of locomotion approaching the
telegraph in its revolutionary character,
there must always be certain sphere
q certain area, in which certain news
paper ascendancy is assured. This
will gradually weed out the partisan,
the venal and the insufficient press, as

About Babies-PrOlifc Pennsyl
yania,

About 8 year ago, SAYS the Johns
town Tribune, three widows OF our
town were married, and last week each
OF the three gave birth to twins"
The Somerset Democrat says this is
the way they do things in that county:
Week before last the wife OF Mr.. VIM.
A Koontz, residing in Somerset town,
ship, about one mile from this place,
became the mother OF triplets-not in
poetry or music-but ofthree bouncing
little babies. On last Thursday night,
the wife of Mr.. David Cover, Of the
same township, and residing about four
miles from this place, followed suit
she giving birth to three fine, plump,
healthy little girls"
And We close the record for today
with this from the Meadville Journal
Mrs. Ann Eliza Messerall, Of Ran
dolph township, on April lst, gave
birth to three little girls, weighing
respectively four and a half, five and
seven pounds. We learn that mother
and babies are doing well. Randolph s

The past winter has witnessed some
extraordinary legislation on the subject
Of liquor selling, and as the result OF
this legislation, it is natural to look for
some singular proceedings in the courts
Of the various States which have been
experimenting in this direction. A
curious case under the new Ohio liquor
law has just been tried in Monroe
county, in that State. A woman re-
covered 5000 damages from saloon
keeper whom she had sued for having
sold liquor TO her husband at divers
times during the last twelve months
No proof was brought that her husband
had been seen to drink any liquor in the
saloon and the defendant swore that
he had not sold or given him a drop
during the time specified. But the
man had been seen drunk in the saloon
frequently, and this the jury appeared
to think was all the evidence required
to prove that he must have obtained his
liquor there. Consequently the saloon
keeper had to suffer for permitting him
to enter his premises.

There are about eight millions OF
sheep in California, says a local paper
This is an increase of three millions
and twenty-five thousand since 1869.
To the number first mentioned must be
added this springs lambs, Of which
about three millions will be raised.
These figures show the astonishing
rapidity with which sheep increase
there. The value OF the wool is as
great as the increase in the sheep is
rapid. There are two clippings. the
spring aud fall In good years for feed,
the spring clip averages six and the
fall four pounds. Each sheep will
yield, this spring, an average clip OF
two and a half pounds, or 100000
pounds in all, while the total wool crop
of last year was only about 20,0O00OO
pounds. A prize buck on Mr.. Jewetts
rancho, in Kern county, clipped q
thirty-two pound fleece, and the ewes
twenty-five pound each, which was last
June worth twenty-eight cents pei

A Dreadful Bull Dog,

There is a man in Darby who pru-
chased bull dog, which he proposed to
turn loose in his store at night in order
to scare away burglars. The first
evening after he obtained possession Of
the animal he locked it in the store and
went away happy man. The next
morning, early, he went around to the
store and unlocked the door. The dog
was vigilant-the man was surprised to
perceive how very exceedingly so that
dog was-tor no sooner was the door
opened than the dog seized its owner by
the calf OF the leg. suddenly, and seemed
to he animated by an earnest and Wig
orous resolution not to let 90 until it
had removed at least one good mouth
iul And the man push Ell the dog back
and shut the door on its ribs until the
animal relaxed its jaws; and then the
man kicked the dog into the store
and shut the door as if he was in q
hurry about something. Thus he sus-
pended business for week, and spent
the vacation firing at that dog through
the windows and down the chimney,
and up through the cellar ceiling with
a shotgun, trying to exterminste him.
And that mercantile establishment did
not open for trade until the man had
paid twice the first cost Of the dog to
the dogs former owner to come and
take it home; and then when he got in
he found that during the bombardment
holes had been shot through mackerel
barrels and molasses cans and coal oil
kegs, so that there was misery and ruin
everywhere. Dogs have no more
charms for this man and il YOU allude,
in his presence, to the noble work that
is being done by the Woman Branch
of the Society for the Prevention Of
Cruelty to Animals, that merchant is
always observed to rise up and swear.

Cachise's Excuse for his Murder g.

Cachise's Excuse for his Murders.
 MT. Cachise says, as per reports,
 that his braves killed Lieutenant
 Stewart and others before he had
 been offered peace. If this were true
 it would be no justification, but it is
 palpably false. In September, 1871,
 he was coaxed to Alamosa reservation
 and begged to keep the peace. and
 there promised to do so. That affec-
 tionate Agent, Piper, and Cachise en-
 braced each other, and any amount of tears of penitent joy was reported shed on that occasion. The New Mexican papers were loud in their praises of Agent Piper and Super intendent Pope for getting him in for peace; some columns of the farce were furnished The N. Y. Tribune, and we were denounced for saying Cachise was playing the agents for food and protection and arms for Win ter to be ready and recruited for
 war the comlng Summer.
 as late .as April this year, General Gordon Granger and Superintendent Pope had a long interview with Ca- chise, promising him almost every thing if he would conform to the wishes of the government. In the meantime, his warriors murdered A. J. Byas and John Petty at Apache Pass; Richard Barnes in San Simeon Valley and badly wounded R. M. Gilbert; killed R. H. Whitney and severely wounded soldier in the Chi ricahua Mountains, besides much more similar work and theft.
 All will we'll remember how Ca chise and Piper camped, drank and ate together and how sweet Cachise said peace was, and how he promised to keep it, &c. How did he keep it.? According to reports, his own confess sions tell. We always hoped he would keep his word but for good reasons believed he would not. While the ineffable folly of Agent Piper was going on at Alamosa with Ca- ,hise, THE CITIZEN said as follows on October 21, 1871, which, as Winter Is near at hand, we again reprint. A few words changed would make 1t ex- press our ideas of the work of just 8 year later:
 The Santa F6 papers arein ecstasies over Jachise's last act of diplomacy. We earnestly hope the old fiend may be acting Il good faith, but we shall wait awhile and irsJ sec whether the peace Is any thing but ruse to recruit for renewed atrocities, be- ore we join in the peace songs our pliant Santa Fe exchanges are singing. If we ,new nothing of the past, probably we would now be in raptures at the news from Canada Alamosa; but with so much sad history fresh in mind and refreshed by al- most every mail from the north, east or outh. we prefer to go slow on the instan- aneOuS "embracing' process

:
 that the Indians killed had drawn rations
 to the 26th of September at Camp Verde
 reservation.
 Now here is, in addition to the kill
 ing, the valuable proof that the h. dians killed had but four days pre- vious to their death been on the Verde reservation and drew rations from government. It would seem that doubts should no longer exist in the mind of any body regarding the hos tile and dishonest character of the Apaches fed by the United States on reserves. Since the Indians have been SO we'll treated and fed at Grant, murders have been more frequent in Southern Arizona, and the savages are provided with better arms and more ammunition than ever before. Off, cers and men at Crittenden are con- vinced that the Grant fed Apaches have done most of the stealing and murdering in the Sonoita Valley and adjacent country, where nineteen citi- zens and soldiers have been killed by them since April 27, 1672-the time of General Towards first appearance at Grant.
 It is proper to refer to these facts to show how utterly worthless are all efforts but those of lively, continuous and well-directed war, to reduce the Apaches to state of peace and good behavior. General Crook has the evidence that Indians fed and clad and protected at Date Creek massacred the Loring party, and others fell or suffered by the same ones. Lieu tenant Weisendorfs battle disclosed the evidence that the Apaches so we'll cared for at Verde drew their rations from government to sustain them in raids Of theft and murder ill the set dement's. The fights of the Pimas with them and finding of the descrip- tive lists on their bodies; the finding and Identification of stolen property On the reserve; and the testimony of army officers and men, show conclu- sively that the Grant Apaches who have been over-fed and caressed have not ceased to depredste; and we may add that the acts of the Camp Apache l"diars eye the same as of those at Grant Ehas + Il be seen that 3 ! ]
