Concering the proposed removal of

Chiricahue Reserve to New Mexico,
the "Citizen" says: Were it not that
if taken to Canada de Alamosa, the
Cachise Indians would quite surely
make raids into Arizona, we would
favor their removal there sooner, as it
would be better for our mining and
raising interests. The way to
settle the Cachise- apache difficulties
is to place these Indians under militia
ry charge of General Crook, with full
power to teach them lesson and nee
essary obedience. AT the same time
circumstances limits their unrestrain-
ed range.

A Newark On: j. husband brought
home hunk of molasses candy for his
wife, the other evening. His wife
wears false teeth. The candy was of
an adhesive nature. she helped her.
self to Il generous hunk, and planted
both rows of teeth in it. There they
remained. Strenuous were her efforts
to release them, but she was not sue
cessful. she wanted her mouth free
that she might say something to him.
She wanted to say something to him
that the candy not only prevented, but
the tone of which fIom its prominent
quality it debauched. But she could
not get her jaws apart. Then she went
to the sink and dropped the whole
mass, teeth and candy in II basin.
Again she looked at him as if she was
on the point of saying something he
would be interested in, but every eff
fort was broken up and destroyed by
the orphanedjaws. Imagine woman,
a direct descendant of Eve, in such II
fix. Think of the mighty thoughts
surging and battling through her
brain; think Of the torrent of eloquence
bursting from herthroat with roar
and striking out into the air vapor:
think of the blazing eyes, the distend-
ed nostrils, the trembling frame, the
nervous hands. Picture her thus,
tearing the miserable candy from the
glistening teeth, and comprehend if
you can, O, man! the velocity with
which the freed teeth were slapped
into their place, and with which that
wretched man subducd his merriment
and tore out OF that house. Danbury

Full four years under the law was due

ton upon it after it became payable,
but no more.n An action commenced
on the lst of March, 1873, was, the
Court held, therefore, too late; "and
this, whether the Sunday, which was
the day that Immediately succeeded
the day on which the note became
due, be or not considered portion of

also the question of the last day being

Could Not Make a Race.

The TaT1, Field and FaTm says Mr.
Brewster, who has returned from his
visit to California, reports that all at
tempts to make a match between
Thad. Stevens and Joe Daniels have
proved abortive. Mr.. Treat was Of
fered every inducement to make Il
match, but declined. 1t would seem
he did not care to risk the reputation
of his horse in another four mile con-
test with an animal OF recogoized
merit. Mr.. Treat talks of coming East
next summer with Slevens, but we
think the California champion is not
anxious to face our best horses on our
own tracks. We hope Mr. Treat will
come East with his horse next sum-
mer, but shall not be disappointed if
he does not come. Joe Daniels has
been kept in racing form all winter,
and SO has Stevens, but Hubbard has
been laid mp, having beeh fired and
blistered on both jaw bones. He has
passed out of California hands, he and
Daniels having been repurchascd.
These horses will remain on the Pacific
slope some weeks yet, and then be
brought back to the Atlantic seaboard.

doubts if he will be able to race through

Wool buyers have operated to the
extent Of their actual wants during the
week, and the market closes quiet.
Prices are not quotahly off. There is
feeling on the part Of holders of me-
dunn and lower grades of wool, which
are not in liberal request at the eX-
treme prices now quoted. The class of
goods in which these woods enter are
not moving freely, and the prices re-
allied by manufacturers are said to be
unremunerative ut present. In raw
material the stock is not very excess
sivc, but is ample for the requirements
of the trade, even under the active de-
mands, and holders are disposed to
yield only to induce manufacturers to
operate more freely, and not in
consequence of pressure Of stock.
California is shade easier on the eX-
treme quotations, with trade little
less active than last week. The sales
are 1872, 900 HIS and l55 bales at 26G27c
for spring, 2l4 m30c for fall, 73G975c for
secured At Boston the market is q
little more active, with considerable
sales, but no material change in prices.
The stock is not large enough to crowd
upon the market, and holders are
firmer. California continues liberal,
the lower grades of fall easy. The best
lots OF spring and free fall bring full
prices. The sales are $1,000 for fall,
1876 for spring, 40,3i2 for pulled.
