TWO SIDES OF LIFE.

There is shady side of life,
 And d sunny side as well, And 'tis for every one to say
 On which he'd choose to dwell, For every one unto himself
 Commits d grievOus sin, Who bars the blessed sunshine out, And shuts the shadows in. The clouds may wear their saddest robes The sun refuse to smile, Anu sorrow with her troop of ills, May threaten Us the while; But still the cheerful heart has power A sunbeam to provide; And only those whose souls are dark, Dwell on lifc's shady side.

UNITED STATES INTERNAL REVENUE,
 Collectors office, Dist. of Arizona, I
 Prescott, March IT. 1873.
 Editor Arizona Miner: Is many of your subscribers are business men, engaged in tr.fc in articles rendering them liable 10 special tax under the internal revenue laws, the following information in regard to the manner in which all such taxes are to be paid, after the first oay of May next may be vf servlce to them, and It acted upon, will certa nly save much trouble and expense:
 In v,ew of the provisions of law, Act of I ecember 24, 1872, the Commissioner Of internal revenue has ordered that the an nual list for lhe present year be dispensed with and that only such taxes as accrue up tn April 30, 1873, be assessed and further, that the lists therefor be placed m the hands of the Collectors on or before the 2Oth day of May. 1873 and, that upon the delivery of li-ts containing the April as- se.sments as above, the Assessors will transfer their bouks, papers and other prop erty in accordan, with the provisions of tbe law and from the date of delivery, and of signing rhe rece'p's for said pro- I erty by the Collector, she otice of Asses- sor and Assi tant Assessor shall cease to exist.
 The internal revenue act of December "A. 1872, provides that all special taxes shall be paid by stamps deno,ing the tax.
 Appropriate stamps for the pay meht Of such taxes will be furnished to 'he collector by the Commissioner of internal revenue.
 he stamps are to be prepared and is sued in the same manner as stamps now used fIr distilled spirits, as provided in Sections 26 and lOl of internal revenue law of July 20. lo6o.
 Every person engaged in any business, av ocation or employment, who IS thereby made liable to specia tax, mu procure and pla. eon.picuously in his establish ment or place oi business. all stamps deno- ting payment of said special tax.
 The law further provides that any per son who sha |, through negligence, fail to % place anu keep such stamps, shall, upon c.pviction, be sentenced to pay penalty euual to the special Iax for which his busi- ness render, him liable, and in no case less than SlO and the cos:s of persecution; and this sha in no way affec; his liability fol exercising, or carrying on any trade or business for the exercising or carrying on of which, a SD, cial tax IS imposed by law, without the payment thereof.
 II should therefore be understood that rom and after the lst day of May next, ,ll persons doing or carrying on any busi- cess rendering them liable to special tax inder the internal revenue laws, must, be- ere they can lawfully enter upoE such business, procure from the Collector of heir district, or from one of his deputies, III the stamps necessary to denote the pay nent of such tax, and keep them conspicu- 'usly in his place of business.
 he law will be rigidly enforced in all ts provisions; careful attention should her, fore be given by business men and hose engaged in any occupation requiring he payment of special tax, that they nay not, through negligence, become lis- lie to its penalties. THOMAS CORDS,
 Collector of Int. Rev., Dist. of Arizona

FROM THE METROPOLIS.
The Hurry and Worry of New York Life--Mining Matters at the East --s Independent Journalism" as a Hangman.

NEW YORK, March 22.--Famil- iarlty with this place greatly shortens up distances and lowers the height of houses; the streets do not seem by one- third as long and far up in the air as they did the first time 1 was so fortu- nate or. unfortunate as to set foot therein. Bnt one thing that does get bigger every time come Eere, is the trouble of getting i'll and out of the devilish place. So far as I am in- dividually concerned-having no per- manent business here, &c.-it matters little; but as locker OH of average capacity, life here seems, as the im- mortal Mantalini in Nicholas Nick leby would say. nothing more nor less than one everlasting "dem.4 .4ition gwind." I have lived the better half of my life at the mercy of bootblacks, cham bermaids and hotel clerks; by machinery as it were, until l ~ish I had never been born but when 1 come to look at this great hive of humanity, with a cool, devil-lnay- care eve, there seems to be unusual comfort in the overwhelming mass of misery that keeps me company. There are more people on this narrow neck of an island than of all colors and con- ditions on the Pacific coast, to say noth ing of as many more in the respective suburbs of the place; yet nine-tenths of this immense pismire's nest are sub ject to from six to sixteen connections or misconnections of ferries, steam and other cars, &c. Everything Is d whirl with pretentions to regulation by clock work; yet nearly everyone is delayed and disappointed score of times 8 day on the mere matters of transportation alone. Everytime one comes here the less he wonders that the common complaint and specula- tion is all about "quick transit, or the various methods devised for get ting in and out of town cheaply and quickly. Yet they arrive at no con- clusion; the problem is no nearer solution than ever. On the west side of the city, near the Hudson river, are to be seen at intervals every day. trains Of small cars running along a viaduct track--like a track set up on telegraph poles-and that is the only thing yet approaching 8 "rapid transit" in and out of old New York. It would take about fifty such lines to make an impression on the demands of the city. Varderbilt's underground scheme seems to have fallen through, and so the row goes on; ram, jam, h-ll- to-split, hitch, haul and so forth. The balloon and fying-machine men seem never to get much nearer gen. eral and particular usefulness than things on paper; and so the coming man who is to emancipate this people from the growing muddle ill question, IS too much in embryo to talk about. The devil take the hindmost.
 My troubles here consist chiefly in trying to find a man or men who lost
