ARIZONA & SONORA PAPERS,
6a No. XIV.
BY JOHN G. BACON.
No. XIV,

Having taken a last breakfast
at the Hotel Americana of Mr..
Garrison, / strolled out to the
suburbs, passing the mansion Of
a noble.hearted old gentleman,
DIR. Deroin, whose parting shake
of the hand was accompanied
with a God bless you'll" that ]
felt came from his heart. On l
walked, past the fine old cathe.
dral, Capllla del Carmen, its white
walls, belfry and spire contrasting
beautifully with the surrounding
verdure and atmospheric purple.
The street, with its briskly NOV
ing Republican men marching
in procession in celebration of
"The Kings Day." led into a
main road lined with irrigated
fields and tall cotton wood trees.
At San Juan Hijo, the train ] had
arranged to travel with was en-
camped, and that night all the
employees Of it left with
out word of explanation, hav-
ing gone to the city to spend their
hard earned wages in drinking
and dancing. Consequently, the
train was left without a guard,
and the thieves kept me busy
running to and fro all night,
watching them. AT length, after
three days of bargaining, and by
dint Of advancing money to those
of the new Transfers who had
families, we were soon under way
for Tucson. The owner of the
train was tall Arkansian, whose
twenty years in Sonora had had
the effect to embitter him against
"the world", but he was any
thing else than a religious fanatic. |
He, too, had been ground between
the upper and neither millstones

great admirer of Byron, and had
a religious theory similar to the
Hindeo one, in the matter of

upon it he rode out the long
nights, to my infinite discomfort.
i Our route lay up the fertile
banks of the Sonora river, past
the brush -huts of the field labor

beauty. Crowds of hungry In

The agricultural implements
used by the Mexican farmers are
of the rudest description. Their
plows are ''knees" of timber,
chopped into convenient shape
with an axe, to which are hitched
a yoke of steers (often mere
calves) which they goad along
with lances of wood, that are
sometimes tipped with iron.
1t is no uncommon sight to see
the TANKS Of the poor animals
SCARED and gashed in a horrible
manner by their cruel drivers.
The soil, being generally rich
alluvium, is easily opened by this
means to depth of six inches,
which the Mexican farmer con-
siders "deep enough". Very lit

crop after it has been put in, and
if the product fails from want of
subsequent culture. it is the Gus.

JAMAICA.--There seems to be no rea-
son to suppose that the death of Charles
d. Read, at Brattleboro, reported last
week, was suicide, but that he died of
congestion of the brain. A few days
previous while in Boston, he had written
to Mrs. Read, saying his head felt badly,
and that he should start for home, I'M
less he felt better. Mr.. Read has long
been one of the most active business
men of the county, and highly esteemed
in all the walks of life.

AMERICAN HoUsE.-The American
House at Burlington, is being newly
painted and newly furnished, and will be
in first rate condition for the season. 1t
fronts the Park, is near the City Hall.
and in the hands of the present courteous
proprietor, Mr.. Grain, and his attentive
assistants, it cannot fail to be among the
most popular hotels and summer resorts
of New England. This with the charms
and splendid scenery in and around the
City of Burlington, including the fine
music of the Queen City Band, certainly
furnishes all the tourist or traveller could
desire.

Row AT WINDsoR.-A drunken row is
reported at Windsor on Wednesday 4th,
in which "Teg Hoisington was struck
with an AK on the head by man named
Osmore and it was thought fatally injured
"Teg" has long been noted for such
sprees, and must be considerably advanc'
ed in years, and though not surprising it
is lamentable that he should end his life
in one of them.
We learn from the Windsor Journal
that the ARRAY occurred in West Wind
sor, in drunken quarrel between Or
ange ("Teg") Hoisington and Osmore.
Osmore was Immediately arrested and
sent to Jail. Hoisington was alive on
Thursday noon of last week, but uncon-
scious.

evening, 9th inst, with concert which
was well attended and was a gratifying
success. The programme included sew
eral choruses, some of them quite elab.

was perhaps the best chorus performance
of the evening. The solo in this chorus
was given with fine effect by Miss Es-

from the Oratorio of Naaman and the
famous "Anvil Chorus" Notwithstanding
a little unsteadiness on the part of the
accomplishments were successfully per-
formed, and we'll received by the audi
ence. The songs of Miss Callie Liver
more of New York seemed to be most
popular with the audience. Her execu.
of high merit. The gem of the concert
to our thinking was ''The Angels Ser.
enade," song with violin obligato, OF
rather violin solo, to which the song
seemed to be part of the accompani'
ment. Mr.. j. +. Kimball's playing in
in this piece as we'll as in leading the
orchestra in the choruses, was of marked
excellence. The accompaniment by
Miss Ellen Kimball and the piano sole
by Miss Lane of Westminster are also
worthy of special mention.

musical ability TO produce with no more
