ernOr Booth Likely to Succeed Him.

SAN FRANCISCO, November 29.-The follow.
ing letter was received this afternoon from
san Francisco, dated November 2Sth, 1875:
Hon. Newton Booth, Governor of California
SIR hereby resign my uneXpired term
in the senate of the United States as senator
for California. This resignation is 10 take
effect Immediately, so that the State legiSla-
ture, which meets the first OF next month,
may MI the vacancy. My intimate friends In
the senate and elsewhere well know that
have long desired 10 withdraw from that
body, and at the same time to withdraw
wholly from politics and political life
My public duties on both sides OF the continent
have demanded o. me, ard have received 50
much attention as to greatly impare my
health, and compel me 10 neglect my affai Is
The latter consideration Is not a controlling
one, but the condition of my health is such
as TO lead me 70 seriously doubt my strength
70 discharge the tedious duties OF a senator
from California. 1 have deferred earrying
out my design until the present time, when
both objects may be accomplished at once
and when the legislature Just about TO meet
may elect my successor. Very respectfully,
+. CASSERLl.
Mr.. Casserly led the MAJ sjority of his party here
in opposition to the railroad monopoly, bul
that stOrity is in the minority in the legis-
laturs, and might not have been able to effect
his re-election In the triangular contest with
Booth or one side. II is the general opinion
that his resignation Will operate favorably fOi
Booth, and disastrously 10 the schemes of rail
road Interest led by Billy Carr, their chief po-
iitical agent.

/ are TO be redeemed before January lst have
1 already been subscribed for in bonds of the

| A Knoxville correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial writes, November I'D,
as follows: "In the United States court the
Boyd cases have occupied most OF the time.
The frauds which these cases brought TO light
were most surprising and bTazen. Pension
claims were made out for persons who never
| existed, and for the survivors of persons who
never died and never were In the army; afii-
dRVits purporting To he made by persons who
were fictitious; children were enumerated
who were never born, and marriages certified
to which never took place. Thomas e. BOyd.
purported 20 be the guard IN OF numerous
orphans, whose parents appeared in court to
testify that thev still lived to the best OF their
knowledge and belief. Thomas q. Boyd, the
leader and manager in the frauds, and arch
criminal of all concerned, was an old citizen
of Monroe county, who stood high with the
people, and consequently was the more able
TO lead others into crime. He was a proTn-
nent member OF the church, made great pro-
feSsiOns of religion after his arrest, and rem
dered himself notorious by PRAYING for the
jury by which he Was tried. He was con-
yicted and sentenced at a former term OF
court"

TheI New York Tribune tells this
story Almon and John Gordon were the
sons of a small farmer living in ThSrndike,
Waldo county, Maine. Something like the
Old rivalry of Jacob and ESan seems to have
grown up with the young men. Almon was
thrifty, Industrious and "close"-a man after
his old fathers heart. John was "no-ac-
count young fellow: he liked squirrel-hunt-
ing and sleighing, but was aveTse 10 hard
labor some person had written anonymous

her that he was ne'e-io-wen and a vaga-

feuq culmlnated in quarrel about a saw
which belonged on toe farm, and which John
took, without leave, to saw wood for one OF
the neighboTs. One night, after some bitter
talk the brothers went TO bed under the same
Foot. Toward morning John rose up steaIthily
and crept into the room where Almon was
sleeping with his wife and two little chill,

Lines entwiued In memory of Miss LIZZIE
HEELY, aged fifteen years and eight months
We mournful watched as paler grew
The rose Of health upon each cheek,
As dim became each Orb's bright hue,
And death in every tone did speak.
We heard with grief each sob OF pain
Too potent IOr control,
While tears, hot, bitter, yet in rain.
Burst from the fountain of the soul
Yet still we hoped, for hopes pure ray
In sorrows hour doth shine most bright
Driving the clouds OF gloom away,
Bathing the soul in tranquil light.
We could not think that one so young
An opening bud from Eden fair
To whom our heart's.fond tendrils cIung,
50 sUon would deaths dread impress bear.
'Tis ever sO-those whom we love-
W nose souls are most entwined in ours
The soonest speed to realms above
And blossom in celestial bowers,
There, nuitured both by sun and shower,
Sweet LIZZIE blooms IN Joy serene:
Coo never culled a fairer fiOwer-
A purer, earth hath never seen. J.J.D.

Temperance No. l, and Deputy Most Worthy
Templsr, died Of yeIlow-fever, in this city, on
the ninth day o; October, 1873.
1t may be truly said that in this dispensa-
ton Of Providence a great loss has been sus-
tained, aud none feel it more keenly than his
brother Templars. He was a Christian in
deed and In truth. He was a member of the
Protestant Episcopal Church, and loved the
cause OF Christ. He was lifelong advocate
of temperance, and by his devotion to the
principles of our noble order he endeared
himself to his brethren. But he is gone. No
more shall we have his cheerful smile and
words Of comfort to encourage us in our noble
cause. He still lives in our memory as one
whom we loved for his uprightness as a man
and his example as Templar of Honor.
Therefore be it

lost q valuable friend and NatOma TemDIe ~

 Nearly S1, 900 in gold dust was brought here this week by placer miners of Lynx and Hassayampa creeks. eE
 ; No ore is,being worked in Brad shaw mountains, but a great deal of ore is being taken out.
 ;'The Q Los Angeles Express notices the arrival in it's city of several bars of bullion, from Col. Bakers furnace, in Wallapai distcict Mo- have county.
 A Mexican gentleman writing to the San Diego World, gives glowing accounts of the silver mines on the line setWeen Sonora, Mexico, and our Territory, ore from which has yielded at the rate of $1,500 per ton. He says that his government is anxious for foreigners to go. there and work.
 In it's annual review, the 1Hi1- ing and Scientific Press of San Francisco speaks as follows, of our Territory and her mineral wealth:
 In the latter place (AriZona) the Indian question being as vet un- settled, the mining districts are not so populous as they would otherwise be. Her ores are rich and abundant, and it has even been found profitable 10 ship them in considerable quantities all the way to this city for reduction. This is sufficient evidence of their value. The Indians being cared for as they should be, and Arizona becoming in that Case q civilized place, we predict for her a most glorious future, as her mineral re- sources are known to be rich and varied.

OUR LEGISLATURE-WHAT IT
 HAS DONE. .l

By limitation (49 days the Leg iSlature closed its seventh session yesterday, 14th inst. We have closely watched the actions of that body from its organization, 9th of January last, until the Sth of February inst, and up to that date we shall speak of some of their acts understandingly. The Governor, in his annual message, suggested that too much Legisla- tion would result detrimental to the best interests of the Terri tory, and, therefore, in this res peet, they should allow no per sonal consideration to divert them from their strict line of duty. How well they observed these suggestions we will endeavor to show, by referring to some of the most prominent among the acts of that body.
 By a curSory glance over the proceedings for the first thirty-one days, we are unable to discover that, so far as important legisla- tion is concerned, more than twenty days should have been re- quired for the performance of that labor. There appears to have been a manifest desire, on the part of some members, to favor special legislation, and of such char acter which, if they knew any thing at all, they we'll knew was without the jurisdiction of the Legislature. For instance, the granting of divorces. Where do our Representatives find authori- ty to act i'll the premises But, still they have arrogated to them selves that right. Let us look for a moment and see what the "BilI of Rights" says, an instrument upon which the Territory was ad- mitted. as such, and which docu- ment stands among the Compiled Laws of Arizona.
 HART. 2S. The Legislature shall not pardon or commute the sen- tence of any criminal, or grant any bill of divorce. except at the first, session of the Legislature"
 Thus it will be seen, by the foregoing article, that the Legis- lative Assembly which adopted the "Bill Of Rights" did antici- pate the powers of Legislature proper, restricted their powers to
