It is proposed to get up cem- etery near New York, of about 100 acres in extent, for the burial of people who have been talked to death. The idea is a good one, but the cemetery ought to be larger.
 Our climate is so pule that the worst case of talk has never yet produced paralysis of the larnyx, but it sometimes results in deli rum, which queerly enough in- spires the person affected to yell like an Apache or a Mexican. We would recommend the dis cussion of this nuisance with a view to it's abatement by the more highly cultivated members of the Bohemian High Jinks club of Yuma, at their next noc- turnal meeting.

Several Papago chiefs applied to go with this party, but could not be taken; but MT.

The result was his punishment in this way: He was double ir0ned, removed to a dark cell, and fed on. bread and water twice day. The bangs of hunger overcame his stubborn will on the sixth day thereafter, and he went to work cheerfuliy.

Mir. Chas. H. Kenyon, of the we'll known firm of Fitzgerald & Kenyon, Yuma, left US Tuesday evening by own conveyance for Maricopa Wells, whither he goes to act as Agent for James A. Moore. Mir. Ks wife accompanies him. Much as their departure is regretted here, the more rural life they will lead in the Wilds of Maricopa, will become mOnotO- nous, and we doubt not they will then return to us. Mir. K. was well thought of here, and his ami able lady's departure also, will prove quite loss to our society.
 MT. Nash relates {: that while travelling through the country Of the Zu6i, in New Mexico, not long since, he saw at one Of their villages a man said to be IA years ofage, upon whose head new hair was growing finely,and thata new set of natural teeth were to be seen above his gums.
 As will be seen by adv. under the head of "New o-Day," the District School will commence on Monday, October 9th. Children should attend at the particular hour mentioned.

Telegraphic dispatches of last night
tell us that Tom Scott has become the
manager Of the Atlantic and Pacific
railway, already finished from st. Louis
to the Indian country west Of Arkansas.
It is agreed, of course, that the Southern
Pacific and Atlantic and Pacific, having
now the same head, must have one
body. The route Of this new
line will be that Of the Mem
phis, FL Paso and Pacific, adopted
by DIR. Jeptha FOwlkes, of this city,
subsequently by Fremont, and now by
Tom Scott. 1t may be some time be
fore we have q road to Fort Smith and
another to Shreveport, but these lines
will be finished, and are already in part
constructed, and then Memphis viii rise
again. In nany event, ,letus bless the day
when the st. Louis and Vicksburg
routes became an unit. Memphis is on
the line of this unity.

The Athenians honored their dead for the
good they had accomplished while living, and
the unworthy citizen was buried without
honors or attendants. Odd Fellowship can,
with Athenian exaetness, demand the rule to
apply in the death Of HENRY K. PUGH, Z. G.
We could not select one from our number that
we would more willingly place upon the altar
of examination, and challenge the judgment
OF our Order as TO his faithfulness or efficiency.
Twenty-seven years of active service in our
Order is rarely recorded TO the credit Of any
brother, and none can claim more devotion or
usefulness. Amid misfortune and trouble,
amid prosperity and peace, he was the same
consistent ana devoted member never suffer-
ing his interest to wane or his love TO grow
cold in the cause. His mind and his influence
was ever exerted amid danger 10 relieve Us of
embarrassments, and amid prosperity to make
US more prosperous. Whatever course he
might pursue, none doubted his honesty or In

while the older members feel that there is no
honor, praise or credit but what we can
accord to the memory Of the deceased In
conclusion, we can but say that none worked
with more skill, none deserve more lasting
honors. .|

THE SABBATH DAT.

aSweet is the morning of the Sabosth-day.
We live in q work-a-day world. The
sweat and dust Of labor follow US allday
long. aad often-alas. how often-fal
into the hot and weary night. From
Monday corning until Saturday night
the muscles of the arms are called into
reauisition, and the busy fingers Of in.
telligent labor toll on eesseiessly, that
bread may come to the mouths OF the
little ones-that the house that shelters
them may be more firmly set in its
foundation. And there is blessing in
work. The thews and sinews of man.
hood wax frmer, and as the physical
man solidIfies in strength, the moral and
intellectual man grows strong and self
reliant. There is a lesson in labor. 1t
teaches humility, but it inspires conf
dence, and it lifts the humblest up to the
clear. pure air ofindependeDce.
..rbv spirit Independence let me share,
Lord OF the lion-heart and eagle-eye,"
sanga man who knew how bitter thing
IT was to eat the bread of dependence.
No man who eats that black
and indigestible food can ever
be a free man, and no man
of industry, in this happy republic,
need ever eat it. Yes, the blush OF
health and the glow of eontentment
mantle the cheek and sparkle in the eye
Of honorable labor. The night brings
refreshing sleep TO such an one, and the
morning breaks with blessings on the
head Of him who, Obedient to law Of
his being, "works while yet it is day."
and who wins from the golden hours the
sweet and happy fortune of content
ment. Rest is the complement of labor;
it is the reward of toll. None but the
honest worker knows the delights of
rest. How welcome to such an one is
the dawn of the Ssbbath-day! How
musically to his ear comes the sound Of
the church-going bells
on this day. .ernbosomed in his home;
With those he loves be shares the frugal meal
With those he loves he shares the heartfelt
OF giving thanks to God.
There is something in the Sabbath
day that appeals to the heart-an ap-
peal echoing along the centuries from
the time when, from the sacred noun
tain Of Arabia, the voice of the Great
Creator was heard proclaiming the
institution Of the Sabbath-''Six
DAYS shalt thou labor and do all
that thou hast to do, but theseventh day
is the Sabbath of the Lord :" "Remem-
her to keep holy the Sabbath-day."
Upon the great ocean of faith this COM
mand still undulates, striking the ear of
man and compelling him to listen and
obey the sacred command. And he does
listen and obey. Reader, as you glance
over the columns Of the SUNDAY AP-
PEAL think of the Sabbath bells whose
silvery melody are upon this beautiful
morning echoing round the globe. They
ring out symphony from ten thousand
spires more eloquent of the faith that is
firmly rooted in the heart Of our race
than pen or tongue can tell. Ring on,
sweet bells, Ye bring hope and conso-
lation to the poor of earth, and ye speak
Of that spiritual strength which is
The balm Of hurt minds,

Ben Butler has more genius than all
his enemies. There was never a more
skillfully drawn paper than his defense
of the "back salary grab" If any con-
gresham be unhappy about voting for
the little scheme by which each one sup
porting it thought he had settled with
the press and won victory, though
forced by the press to give up the frsnk-
ing privilege and mileage-if any poor
Congressman has not wit enough to de-
fend himself, let him read Buffers bro
chtre. 1t is unique, original, strong,
logical and full of interest. Butler shows
that the purchasing power Of Washing
ingtons salary Of twenty-five thousand
dollars was five times greater than that
OF Grant. II Grant were paid, in fact,
as much as Washington, his salary in
this age Of paper and consequent specu-
lation, and fraud, and vice, would be
certainly one hundred and seventy-five
thousand dollars instead of fifty
thousand, and the salaries of
judges would be three times greater
than to-day. Since the expenses
of congressman are much heavier than
Of judges and cabinet officers, Butler
thinks they should have the higher in
stead Of lower salaries. Grant is ma
liciously made by Batler the stupendous
leading figure in the grand procession of
back-sslary grabbers. They all stand
meekly and humbly just behind him,
and Butler and Aleorn, two of the rich
est men in congress, and neither
valuing seven thousand five hundred
dollars above its true worth, alone, of all
the dastardly moi, have courage enough
to stand up like true men and
assert the wisdom and justice
of the measure. These two alone
say they have no apologies to make.
While approving Buffers boldness and
ingenuity and pitying poor Grant-who
never before led charge, though he has
sent myriads into the jaws of hell-we
must not forget the wickedness of But
Ter in this malicious effort TO cover con-
gness with the wretched little body Of the
President. But it is none Of our fight,
and we cannot be supposed to care who
may be slaughtered.
