Tncumbe d todos los votantes de este Territorio para nuestro mayor interes material, presentar un voto complete en Ia proxima eleccion del Martes ve- nidero La cuantia de consideration que se dehe a una comunidad depende V SC basa siem ore su sobre numero. Fl censo de 1870 fue inexacto, y ademas nuestra poblacion ha desde esq fecha aumentado considerablemente. Pero, supuesto que el censo de 1870 hubiese hecho justicia a Arizona; no es DOT esO menos importante que presentemos un voto complete en esta eleceion. Aun- que algunas veces no SC atienda a Ia estadistica de empadronamiento, sue len sinembargo los hombres publicos rafferirse los retornos de eleccion.
 En casi todas las principales ohcinas de periodicos SC publican anuamente almanaoues con tablaS estadisticas en las que anotan escrupulosamente los retornos de eleccion.
 Se supone que Ia proxina eieccion dara un voto complete y los periodistas estadisticos, y los nom bres publicos St serviran de sus almanaques para usar aouellos datos sobre los cuales tendran que basar sus acciones publicas. En respuesta a muchas poticiones que St han hecho al Congreso SC ha dlcho, que la poblacion de Arizona tan limitada no iustifcaba las conceciones pedidas. Ahora tiene Arizona una buena Opor- tuuidad para sostener nuestra esercion, que el censo de 1870 fue incomplete, Y que ha aumentado su poblacion ; cosa que sera de grande importancia para ayudar d sostener sus intereses. Regularmente SC referen al voto dadu al Delegate pare estimar Ia poblacion del Territorio, y mientras esperamos que SC dara un voto complete y una mime al SeHor Mccormick, comfamos no obstante que aquellos que no le quieran dar su voto, To daran a quien sea de su agrado con tai que presen- temos m voto complete para ese em- pleo. Haoemos esta suplica, no para satisfacer motives partioulares, sino para el mayor bien comun. Deben recordar los votantes que.al depositar sus votes no solo ayudan d elegir un Delegado, sino que ayudaran asi nu- estro bienestar general.

THE noble Apaches are quite in- active now, because the weather is too cold ill the mountains to comforta bly, retreat there, and hence they prefer retreating to the reservations where food and raiment can be had without fighting or risks of any kind They have at times heretofore managed to forego their preferred occupation of pillage and murder during the cold winter months, accepting free food and tlankets as compensation for their self sacrifice. 4 few depredations may be expected, but then Cachise and other Chiefs say some of their men are un1ontrolla ble-a favorite way to avoid responsibility and secure the warmer friendship and defense of the more exalted plilanthropists.

SAN FRAN CISCO has spent whole Summer in talking about railroads, with the usual result of doing nothing she started out to do. Last May she and St. Louis were hobnobbing, and made some big figures and bigger talk. Probably each is now ashamed of the other, and San Francisco ought to be ashamed of herself

NOTWITHSTANDING the great cost of nearly everything, and the terrible and frequent depredations of the h. dians, there is at this time much sub 8tnutial work done in mining matters. Within week, five applications for the survey of mines and one for 6 mill-site, preparatory to patent, have been filed with the Surveyor General, and information comes that number of applications will soon be made by claimants in Wallapai District. These steps are proofs of confidence in the worth of our mines

National Park

Forty-four miles by brty miles is
the size of theprospecive National
Park, comprising the magnificent
and wonderful valley at the head
of the Yellow Stone River, inlthe
Territory of Wyoming. The bill
setting apart this valley for park
was recently introduced into the
United States Senate by Mr. Pome-
roy, of Kansas, and passed without
discussion. This wild, romantic,
and picturesque..section of country
abounds in marvellous attractions.
Nature, with profuse hand, has scat
tered mountains, rivers, lakes, can
ons, waterfalls, 'geysers. hot springs,
forests of pine, and everything else
that the most exacting sight-seer
could demand, in this highly favor
ed spot; every thing-except holels.
These in due tive will appear, and
when railroads place it within easy
reach, trip to the Yellow Stone
Valley will rival, in the minds of
many, a voyage to Europe.

%The Houston Daily onion gets
off the following at. the expense Of
Texas Democracy:
One of the funniest things that
ever occurred in the politics of
Texas is the fact that the Democrats
packed the Federal Grand Jury to
get the Governor indicted, and then
got SO frightened and ashamed
about it that they began to swear
that the Jury were nearly all Re-
publicans. They now want to get
out OF it, and they are trying to
represent it as wholly Republican
affair. The Onion showed each
mans political status by name over
a month ago, and the Jury was
shown to be more than two-thirds
Democratic. Nobody has dared to
deny our statement. More than
two-thirds of the Jury were sup
oorters of Giddings and Hancock,
ind voted in the Grand Jury as
hey had voted in the election.

The LoUrsrANrAN enjoys the proud
distinction of being the first, if not
the only, city paper to direct public
attention to the enormous and unne-
cessary expenses attendant on trials
in the criminal court of this city.
We perceive with much grati6ca-
ton, therefore, that bill is before
the House OF Representatives point
ing to remedy of some of the evils
complained of, and efecting, it is
computed, an annual saving to the
city of over sixty thousand dollars.
In this respect, the measure will
doubtless receive the attention of
the "Reformers." But there are
complications likely to arise under
the enactment proposed, which, if
not foreseen and provided against
BY amendment, may result in injury
and suffering to prisoners. We re-
greet that the brief period since we
have seen MIR Gaddis' bill, prevents
IS from pointing out fully what we
to be defects in the bill.

This is pretty. 1t would perhaps
be unkind to show how far the pro.
prietor, publisher and chief factotum
OF the Times is responsible for the
identical "obloquy and disgrace" of

likewise be unjust to discriminate
between the man looking over the

the same man entreating the legis-
lators to vote for his "little bill" I'VE
would however say this, that every

The Origin Of Lotteries.

Lotteries were invented by the Ro-
mans to eniven their Saturnalia.
This festival, which was instituted in
commemoration of the freedom and
convivality which prevailed on earth
in the golden reign ofSaturn began
by the distribution of tickets which
gained some prize. Augustus APP
pointed lotteries, which consisted of
things oflittle value; but Nero estab-
lished some for the people, in which
one thousand tickets were distribut-
ed daily, and a number OF those who
were favored by fortune became rich
by them. Heliogabalus invented
lotteries of very singular nature
theprizes were either of great value,
or of none at all; one gained a prize
of six slaves and another of six flies;
some got valuable vases, and others
vases of common earth. A lottery
of this kind exhibited An excellent pic
ture of the inequality with which
fortune distributes her favors. The
first lottery in England of which we
have any accounk, was drawn at the
vert door of St Pauls Cathedral in
1853, and consisted of forty thous-
and tickets at forty shillings each.
The profits of the lottery were to be
applied toward repairing tile har-
bors. In 1e12 King James ap
pointed lottery to be drawn at the
same place, for the plantation of
English colonies in Virginia. The
prize was four thousand
crowns in plate.-Iroy Times.

sSThe utter a5surdity of reject
ing jurors who read newspaper re-
ports Of murders, as incompetent
to render an impartial verdict, has
just been aptly illustrated in New
York in the trial of Stokes for the
murder of Fisk. Five hundred
names were called and not twelve
could be found who had not read of
and conversed on the subject. The
result of such practice is inevitably

WHITE LABoRERs- DIR. II. Bussey
of this parish, last year worked q
large number of German laborers
and they gave entire satisfaction
This year he las twelve white men,
who work side by side with the ne
groes, and he believes greatly to his
advantage, as the negroes are am
bilious to do as much as white men.
The white men ale well satisfied,
because they are comfortably housed
and fed, in a clearinghouse which
the Doctor has put up especially for
their benefit. Those who are going
to try white laborers should profit
by DR.. Bussey's experience, in this
last particular. Poor quarters and
poorer rations are the principal
causes of decentralization among
white laborers.
If we mistake not, it is an entire
ly new theory that "white laborers"
are capable of performing more
manual labor in semi-tropical
community than negroes" 1t is
gratifying to find that the foolish
objection against all kinds of la
borers, working side by side with
each other, is passing away with the.
influx of men who take liberal and
sensible views of things.

In Lake Valley, Florida, where 9

it was supposed their observations

occur every day, are the effect Of
Withholding education from the
masses; of that proud aristocratic
spirit which would afford the bene-
fits of education to Tom, the white

from Dick, the black mans son,
