PUBLIC attention IS directed to the statement in this paper by the Terri torial Treasurer of Arizona. It will thereby be seen that this Territory on January l, 1872, was out of debt and a cash balance on hand for future pur- poses of $3,313 20. Can any other Territory make such fine showing ! The Territorial government has been in operation for nearly nine years, and the people have been killed by the hundred by Indians, and their property stolen by them in like or greater proportion. Through this long siege of murder and theft almost without parallel in any part of any nation, Arizona has made some prog ress in taxable property and popula- ton; has kept her credit "gilt edged, :" and now shows cash balance, small as it appears, that probably no other Territory or State in the Union can exhibit. Does such statement show a bad official rule? with tax of but % cents on $100.
 We have not the exact figures of each county, but we are warranted in stating that, comparatively speak ing, the counties are in fair financial condition. Pima warrants sell at S5 to 90 cents per dollar.

Unhamy Mexico.

We have reliable news from Guay- mas up to December 29, showing that the State of Sinaloa was practically in the hands of the revolutionists that Governor Pesqueira, of Sonora, was moving forward with 700 men, and that these achievements were being awaited by Gov. Buelna of Sinaloa. Confidence is still expressed that the Government will still main tain itself.
 From various sources, we learn that some of the Mexican States have de- clared their independence, and revolts were rife in many. There is a lack of interest among the masses for the government. They can hardly be damaged much in property, no matter under what rule, and many feel that a change might better what all con- ce6 is an unstable government.

Railway Lands Withdrawn.

Last week we referred to this sub- ject, and since that The Miner has reached us with Register Eastman official notice of the withdrawal from homestead and pre-emption privileges the odd numbered sections for forty miles on each side of the proposed route of the Texas Pacific railway. The notice does not even approxi- mately point out the belt of lands thus withdrawn, nor do we presume there was any legal reason that ii should do SO; yet it would be of ad- vantage to the public to have some such knowledge.
 All settlers on eren numbered sec tions within the undefned tract, can as before proceed to procure litle, with only this difference, viz: Instead oi $1,25 per acre, they will have to pay $2,50; but those who filed their state ments prior to the notice of with drawal, can undoubtedly prove up and pay at the lower price.
 For general information, we may as we'll state that some misaphrehen- sion exists as to the price at which the law requires the railway company to dispose of its lands. Many SUD- pose that the company must sell at $2 50 per acre, but it is decidedly an erroneous supposition as will be seen by the following proviso to sec tion of the law:
 That all such lands, so granted by this section to said company, which shall not be sold, or otherwise disposed of, as provided in this act, within three years after the completion of the entire road, shall be subject to settle ment and pre-emptlon like other lands, at price to be fixed by and paid to said company, not exceeding an average of two dollars and fifty cen It's per acre for all the lands herfin granted.
 "An average of S2,5O per acre br all the lands herein granted" QAy enable the company to charge vtry much above the apparent low lir rfit. It would seem to be to the plain Sp- terest of the company not to exact ! very high price for lands inviting to actual settlers, for a thrifty population will enlarge its dividends more than soil however valuable. Still 1t will be we'll for settlers mak- ing improvements within the S0-mile belt to keep these facts in view.

/ THIEvING Indians have been lately seen in San Pedro Valley. About the 1st. instant five of them drove seven head of cattle towards Camp Grant reservation on the east side of the ranches; and couple of days later, another party of three passed down on the west side of the river, with five head of cattle headed directly for Grant. They came from the direction of Whetstone Springs, and probably got the stock in Sonora. Ranchers must be on the their guard both for their lives and property. The time Is happily short that Indians off reser- vations can in any way plead peace full or honest intentions, or be treated >Other than as public enemies.

German Explorations In a recent editorial on
the subject OF African exploration we called atten
ton to the fact that the Germans have of late been
unusually busy in this field, aud our hints then
thrown out have been more than confirmed by the
recent cable telegram that the geographical sOcle
ties 10 Germany have united 10 the recommends
ton to Government to undertake a systematic ex-
ploratlOn Of the entire African continent. We
have 10 doubt that this means very serious WORK,
and we are free to affirm that the Germans are able
to astonish the world with what they already know
about Africa. Many of their ripest scholars and
most adventurous explorers have been busy for
years in this field without saying great deal about
the matter. But now, since the adventures Of
Stanley and the revival OF the Livingstone excite
ment have aroused the world regarding Africa, the
Germans are ready to step in and have a large
share Of the conquests, and they are actually in
social if not in diplomatic relations with the great
est ruler 10 Central Africa, the Sultan of Soudan.
with whom Emperor William lately exchanged
royal presents Their geographical societies have
treasured up vast amount of knowledge regard
/ ing the country, and have remarkably expe
rlenced scientific corps who would like nothing bet
Ter than government support in new enterprises il
