Gently been brought to notice, which is worthy

adiutors in the crusade against the obnoxious
weed In Virginia Mrs. Chloe Flatford, Of
Fredericksburg, became addicted to the use OF
tobacco at an early period Of her life, and the
habit of smoking and chewing became so strong
with her that she was unable to comfortably
exist without it's indulgence. For one hun
dred years this misguided woman continued
the daily use of tobacco, and only gave it up
at her death, which occurred when she was one
hundred and eighteen years old. This sad case
shows how long bad habit, once acquired, will
sometimes cling to person

 Nearly the first man to greet me at the Continental Hotel, was Hon. l.. Ochoa, who has just purchased large stock of general merchandise in this city for the firm of Fully, Ochoa & Co.,, and has them now shipped for Tucson via St. Louis and Kit Carson, and he is just starting after them.
 Hon. R. c. Mccormick, is here to attend the Centennial Commissioners s meeting, and will return tomorrow. He looks very we'll, and says except ing perceptible weakness of his re- maining eye, his physical condition could hardly be better, which is bit of good news for all truly interested in the welfare of Arizona.
 Chief Justice John Titus is enjoy ing himself at home with his admir- able family. He appears fresh and vigorous, and his overland trip to Kit Carson evidently was the elixir for him. 1 have met him several times at home. His presence in the Eastern cities this Summer will do much to correct public sentiment regarding our Territory, to which he will return by early in October or late in September.
 James Riley, formerly lieutenant in the Twenty first Infantry, is pleas antly located in large jewelry and silver ware establishment on Chestnut between 18th and 18th streets. His native wit and tendency to amuse and entertain his friends are as strong and free as ever. If any of his Arizona companions on an Eastern run, will hunt him up and afford him the opportunity, he will do the fair thing for them.
 Joseph Wasson, who has been on the invalid list for some time, IS here, and complains of being i'll @ vastly improved condition of health. He talks some of taking the steamer for San Francisco by Jnne b.
 I have made the acquaintance, in this city, of G. H. Vickroy and E. w. Coffin, formerly we'll known in some parts of Arizona, and as their inquiries are many and earnest, 1 conclude they still have lingering affection for that bloodstained Territory. J. W.

 WE publish below the letter of Miss Nellie Grant to Queen Victoria and the Queens reply. The letter does credit to our American Girl" who did not presume upon her fathers posi- tion to receive royal attention, and to the sovereign of Great Brittan, who was willing for the occasion to forget she was Queen:
 LANGLEY's HOTEL, May, 1872.
 My Dear Lady and Queen :-E am embarrassed at the honor of an off, cial request, given through a high of ficer (your Lord Chamberlain, 1 think, to be presented to your Majesty. I should dearly love to see you, that I might tell my mother and father that I had been thus honored. l am but simple American girl; that I am the Presidents daughter gives me no claim to your recognition as sovereign. If, with the kind lady who is acting as my "chaperone, might visit you, I should be very glad. Our Secretary of Legation hints at some political significance in this opportunity. l cannot so interpret it, and would not wish to be 50 received, because 1t would not be right, as I am nothing in American politics, and I am sure my father would not desire me to appear other than as my simple and very humble self. If, with this explana- ton, your Majesty will allow me to visit you, shall be greatly honored and be very proud.
 I have written this note of my own motion, and because l think it the right thing to do. lam your Majesty's very obedient servant and admirer.
 NELLIE GRANT.
 WINDSOR CASTLE.
 Miss Nellie Grant:-I have in- structed Lady --t to convey to you this note, and we shall receive you as the daughter of your honored parents without the intervention of our high officers of State. l shall accept your visit as an American girl" and there shall be no other in the fact than your kindly-expressed desire to see the lady and not the sovereign. 1 shall find 1t pleasant to forget that am Queen m receiving you tomorrow afternoon at our palace of Windsor.

Sixty-seven new voters, 35 blacks

Hon. It. De y Tucker, Hon. A. P.
Fields and Hon. G. @. Antoine, candi-
dates on the Republican State ticket of
Louisiana, arrived in the city last
evening, and will depart for Monroe
this morning. - Jfch:s5ss,,9 leeo,t57ico7r.
Messrs. Tucker and Antoine both
visited Monroe and Bastrop, and made
speeches advocating the Radical ticket.
From Bastrop they returned TO Mon-s
roe, and from this point took the back
track to New Orleans. 1t is said that
Tucker had no funds, and we are cer-
tain Antoine had no friends. Kellogg
and Fields were ashamed Of their can
didate for lieutenant Governor, and
We're anxious to get rid Of him. But
let the people west of this not overlook
sShe fact that an iiliteratc and corrupt
eolored man is the second candidate
on the Radical ticket, and that his col
leagues have given him snubbing, in
order to catch white voters.
