week the epidemic reached its climax,
for during the seven days closing
Saturday, the 18th inst, the fever mortality
increased to 280, its highest point. A few
days later these frosts-immediatel sue
ceeded by lighter ones-sligbtly checked
tie progress of the disease; for the weeks
report ending Saturday, the 18th, showed
252 deaths from the fever-a decrease Of %,
assuming the previous weeks reprot to be
correct, though up to that time large
number, which should have been credited
to yellow fever, was reported ssunknown,"
owing to imperfections in the undertakers'
returns. Our opinion is that instead of $50
for the week alluded to, the deaths from
fever were not less than $40, the totsl from
all causes being 384, thus making the de-
crease SS, inste id of %.
On Monday, Tuesday and Friday morn
iDgs of the past week there were black
frosts, the last two of which made ice, the
mercury Friday morning falling to 80 deg,
the freezing point. Although the only i'm
mediate effect Of these heavy frosts has
been slight increase In the death rate, ow-
ing to the sudden change to cool weather,
we are still able to report another marked
decrease In the total mortality. During
the week ending yesterday, (25th,) there
were 162 deaths fron yellow fever, against
2s2 last week-a decrease of 80.
Assuming the Howard Association reports
to be correct-and they will be found So
the fever is now r'pidly sbating. The
number Of new cases, as reported
for the five days ending last night
were, respectively, ID, 44, 80, Il and
18-a rapid decrease in the aggregate.
Hereafter the fever will develop only in
those whose systems were a week ago filed
with poison. We will hear of few new
cases in future, unless this poison be harder
to kill than any ever before known in yel-
low fever.

COME! GIVE US PEACE.

We have it from the very best authority that "Chimehueva SaW and a lot of Date Creek Indians numbering about 200, who have fled from the haunts of Gen. Crook, have taken refuge in the Black Laguna, about fifteen miles from this city. They are well armed with rifles, muskets, and revolvers. Notwithstanding the peace @ that has been made, we would advise our people to be en their guard. We are assured that Gen. Crook has been inform ed Of all the particulars, and it is our hope that he will send a mounted force to range this To. cality. Meantime, we are also assured, that if an attack is made by the Indians, every man and officer at Fort Yuma will hasten to the rescue. The force is small, but what it lacks in numbers will be made up by pluck. As we remarked in a former publication, strategy will be exercised, with good sound judgment. Both officers and men at Fort Yuma feel galled that they are not strong enough to send out parties where they are needed. Let us hope that Gen. Crook will not disregard the in. formation given him because "peace has been declared"

Late telegraphic dispatches an- nounce the fact that Brig. Gen. ?. Ste. Cooke will soon be re- tired by the President, he being over the retiring age.

THE ARIZONA TELEGRAPH.

General Sackett is authority for the statement that MT. Orton, President of the Western Union Te, egraph Company will com- mence the construction of the Arizona telegraph right away S0a Diego Union.
 AS Gen. Crook is to build the Government Telegraph from this point to Maricopa Wells, and from thence to Tucson and Pres colt, we would understand by the above that the W. U. T. Go. will build from San Diego to this point, where it will connect with the Government line. We now look forward to a connection with civilization, by electricity, within two or three months.

different political subdivision 1 lying along the Pacific Oceal
 are identical, nor can there exist anything like an antagonisn 1 between us. But we would re
 mind the World that Arizona is tt be developed first. She lies ned,' est to the teeming millions who during the last ten years, have ad' vanced the standard of Progress from the Missouri to the Rio
 Grande. In three years the Texas
 Pacific Railroad will have been
 completed through this "dark and bloody ground" (and have set
 forever at rest the vexed Apache
 question, if it shall not have been definitely settled before.) When
 the great wave of population HOW surging westward shall have over flown Arizona, 1t will seek the
 Pacific through Sonora, spreading to Lower and Southern California.
 And when in the early future Chihuahua and Sonora shall have sioughed off from that abortion of an attempt at free government, La Republica Mejicana, and con . sented to shine in the U. s. con- stellatiOn, in return for the stable government we offer them, then Arizona will have an outlet to the Pacific at Guaymas one hun. dred miles nearer to Southeast ern, Middle and Northeastern Arizona than San Diego; for by that time Scott will have built a branch road to Guaymas, should the present project of Tucson & Guaymas R. R. fail; and the new Sonora, Amerlcanized, will open wide her doors to the energetic emigrant from whatever country and of whatever religious faith.
 In eight years time we shall'see the Atlantic and Pacific R. R. com pleted to the ( Olorado, the Kan sas TranscOntinental well On her way to the Pacific, the Texas Pacific doing the railroad business of this Slope, and iron horses prancing up and down the valley of the Colorado to connections with Utah, Nevada and other rail- ways. Why should the Arizona then buy in California? That monopoly of the trade of Arizona which San Francisco has for so long a time forced Us in a most tantalizing manner to pat ronize, will have become . thing of the past. Our producers will have a constantly increasing home market in which to traffic for many years before exportatlon to the East will be thought of; the vast wool product of Arizona will go where California sends hers; and smelling and reduction works erected on the banks of the Colorado by eastern and foreign will attest the great value of our mining interests.
 Yuma will then have become a fiourishing railroad centre, D. preciating the great advantage of an outlet to a vast commerce along and beyond the Pacific. The owners of rebellious ores in ai the vast region drained by the Colo rado of the West, will float them on rival steamboats to its mouth, from whence vessels that have

 tie speck of territory" (meaning
 the Yuma water-fronD it should
 certainly advocate the collection
 of taxes from the same. ''It is not
 worth while," says that paper, "to ] get up a quarrel with our Arizona
 neighbors about little speck of
 territory, the collection of the
 taxes on which involves more in- , convenience than profit" This is, to say the least, in exceeding ly bad taste. The assessment on that ''Iittle speck" amounted to over $100,000 last year, yet it is very inconve,sie1at and froftless for San Diego County to send its col 1eet0r here! The reception that that o1Sciay received at the hands of tour Arizona neighbors" in 1870 was sufficient to keep him away from here, ever after.
 Fer the information of the edi. tor of the World, we will relate to him the circumstances: In 1870 the San Diego Collector made his appearance, as he had done for years before, to collect taxes on that ''little speck." But this time, instead of getting "gold coin" for the ifao01arenie,ace he had been put to ill coming here, the fellow was furnished with apartments in our County Jail-charged with trying to collect money under false pre- tences. The man was pitied, and three of our most prominent citi- zens went bail for his appearance at court. Meantime, he wrote to San Diego about the matter, and those who sent him here advised him to slip away at night and let his bondsmen stand the bEunt! which he did!
 Again, in 1870, Yuma County entered suit against the Colorado Steam Navigation Company for delinquent taxes for 1869, which that company had paid to San Diego County. Instead of that county coming forward and up holding the company in the suit, the officials thereof said they were
 not responsible! No wonder that company pays its taxes in Ari- zona, notwithstanding it's desire to pay in San Diego. Here, the county is responsible for whatever collections of taxes are made by her Collector, and the c. $. N. Co. has the assurance that should San Diego County enter suit against it for back taxes. it will not be against the company, but the County of Yuma.
 Does San Diego County feel proud of the above record?
 We are confident that we echo the sentiment of the people of Southern Arizona, when
 we reiterate "Why affiliate with Southern Californian ''Is not the Territory of Arizona large enough already"' "Has she not, within her present boundaries, the ele- ments to form Q rich and power full Slater" It IS true that the in- terests of Arizona and Southern California, are identical--in the

man was in perfect health as far as

tho room with the announcement that
General Quinn had just died very
suddenly. How to account for the
curious knowledge given, will puzzle
