What Men Need Wives For.

It is not to sweep the house, and make the bed, and darn the socks, and cook the meals, chiefly, that a man wants a wife. If this is all he needs, hired help can do it cheaper than q wife. If this IS all, when young man calls to see a young lady, send him into the pantry to taste the bread and cakes she has made. Send him to inspect the needle-work and bed-making, or put broom into her hands, and send him to witness its use. Such things are inn portant, and the wise young man will quietly look after them.
 But what a true man most wants of true wife is her companionship, sym pathy, courage, and love. The way of life has many dreary places in it, and man needs companion to go with him. A man is sometimes overtaken with misfortunes he meets with fail ure and defeat trials and temptations beset him, and he needs one to stand by and sympathize. He has some stern battles to fight with poverty, with ene- mics, and with sin, and he needs woman that, while he puts his arms around her and feels that he has some- thing to fight for, will help him fight; that will put her lips to his ears, and whisper words of counsel, and her hands to his heart, and impart new in spiration. All through life-through storm and through sunshine, conflict and victory, through adverse and favor ing winds-man needs Q woman's love. The heart yearrs for it. A sisters or mothers love will hardly supply the need.
 Yet many seek for nothing further than success in housework. Justly enough, half of those get nothing more; the other half, surprised beyond mea- su1e, have gotten more than they sought. Their wives surprise them by bringing nobIer idea of marriage, and disclosing a treasury of courage, sym pathy and love.-Beechcr.

A Mark of Homage.

In America, when a gentleman kisses the hand of lady, the act is construed by her into one of marked devotion. American ladies who go abroad are somewhat startled, therefore, to find that kissing the hand is national GUS tom in Austria. A gentleman, in meet ing lady with whom he is acquainted, especially if she be young and hand some, kisses her hand. On parting with her he again kisses her hand. It is very common to see a gentleman kiss lady's hand on the street on meeting or part ing with her. Ifyou give a beggar wo- man on the street a few coppers, she either kisses your hand or says, "I kiss your hand" Chambermaids, beggars, and even little children, all observe this custom. The words, "kiss your hand ;" appear to be the same in German as in English, or at least sounds the same. The gentleman kisses the hands of mar ried women as we'll as the single, and it is taken as an ordinary salutation and a token of respect.

Life in Danbury.

Between four and six o'clock of every Sunday afternoon there are nearly three hundred young men in Danbury ''put- ting out for her house. They are dis tinguished mainly for an air of easy nonchalance, as if they had no particu- lar object in view and also for an lilly disguised interest in their boots as evinced at the ceossings. Through Main street they move carelessly, but once on the side thoroughfares, where few peo- pie are met, their gait instinctively quickens. If lightning should strike down the backs of those who wear tails to their coats the amount of pea nuts, lozenges, and burnt almonds which would be brought to view would actually paralyze an ordinary statisti- clan.

KELLOGG AND THE CITY CHARTER
BILL,

The New Orleans correspondent Of the
New York Times writes to that paper of the
18th inst:
The Democrats have just nominated very
strong municipal ticket, and there seems to
be no doubt that they win carry the election.
Seeing this, and desiring to still retain their
well-known influence with the city officers,
a number of thieving Federal otticeholders
here are using every effort to induce the Gov
eruor to sign the city charter bill, and under
its provisions appoint creatures of theirs to
the vacant positions Thus far Mr.. Kellogg
has remained firm in his determination not to
sign the bill, but there is reason to believe
that he will not long be able to resist the
pressure which is being brought to bear upon
him. Meanwhile the question is being ex-
citedly discussed by the people, and it is
generally understood that if the bill is signed
there will be another attack on the State
House.

The REPUBLICAN is active and persistent in
publishii and calling attention to the PEN
alties cor aimed in the election and registra-
ton laws of fraudulent and illegal voting.
Certainly no party needs to be cautioned
against perpetrating such crimes more than
the Republican. When the work begins OF
arresting the five thousand negroes who have
perjurcd themselves, and thereby obtained
fraudulent registration papers in this city,
will the organ cry SO Justify for the appica-
ton of the law to it's sable pets?
1t is notorious fact, and susceptible OF
proof, that there are hundreds of negroes who
have registered, some five, some ten, and some
ns often as seventeen times, under different
mes and in different wards. These are the
!, ers who are to give the Republican party
any overwhelming majority. But let
N beware how they attempt to carry out

and check all such frauds at the ballot

AN OUTRAGE.

EARLE and Garvey, the two desperadoes who
murdered poor old Mrs. solinger, five years
ago, were yesterday brought before the Superior
Court and on motion Of Nh. Luxembourg, their
counsel. were admitted to bail In the sum OF
$4,000 each.
II will be remembered that these men were
tried in the First District Court, and were
found guilty of murder in the first degree.
Their counsel, Judge Atocha, carried the case
before the Supreme Court, and they were
granted a new trial; in this second trial they
were found guilty Of murder in the second
degree.
The case was again appealed and was
brought before the Superior Court to-day.
Ju lge Atocha having been their former
counsel, rescued himself and resigned the
bench to Judge E. North Cullom, which
ended in these murderers being admitted to
bail.

to the interesting discussion on the Louisiana
ease, in which Mr.. Reverdy johnson and MIR.
Charles O'Conor have hitherto been the chief
disputants. Mr.. Curtis supports Mr. OConor's
view Of the power Of the President, reaching
the same conclusion by different process Of
reasoning. He contends that it was not merely
the right, but the clear duty of the President
TO revise and revoke his former decision when
Kellogg made his new application last month
for Federal assistance. Mr.. Curtis thinks that

road was the great instrument IN TINS rapid
growth and it is to-day monument to the
far-seeing perception Of the Little Giant"
Another illustration can be found in the
Cincinnati Southern Railroad, now under pro-
cess Of construction, AMI which is being built
upon the same plan that it is proposed to
pursue in the case Of the proposed Texas
railr )ad.
The Cincinnati Southern Road is to extend
through Kentucky and Tennessee and directly
to Pensacola.
1t was projected several years ago, but was
checked by the Kentucky Legislature. under
the promptings of Louisville interests-re-
fusinc to grant the right of although
several counties had already voted for taxa
ton to large amount of stock and the city OF
Cincinnati had done the same.
The project was not abandoned, however,
hut was pursued with undated vigor, until
at last. ali obstacles were overcome, and the
| road is now being rapidly built.
There is not an instance of a railroad IN the
United States being built as good invest
mert for immediate results-on the contrary,
presume there is not road IN the country
that ever actually paid out its original stock,
holders or subscribers, but the majority OF
them have certainly paid out IN dement's 10 tne
community. ani the stockholders and SUD-
scribers have been directly compensated to q
greater amount than their investment.
We need theYTexas railroad to help IN the
process of restoration, and l am satisfied thai
the benefits it will confer on this community
viii amply compensate all who are involved IL
the proposed taxation, and, at the same time
contribute immeasurably to the commercial
prosperity of the city.

LOCAL MATTERS.
HOOker's Fine Horses.

Last week we referred to H. c. Rockers two fine horses which he recently pur- chased in San Francisco and brought to Arizona. He left here last Saturday with them for his ranch near Camp Grant. Be- fore leaving, we had the pleasure of a short ride behind them and must say they move rapidly and beautifully. MT. Hook CT informed us that the following, taken from The Yuma Sentinel, regarding the animals is correct:
 One, "Jackson Rolla Gold-duSt," Is a bright bay stallion, $ years old, stands l6 hands high and weighs Il50 pounds, of very fine style, without spot or blemish. When four years old, he trOtted his mile in 2:40. He was sired by the celebrated horse "Gold-dust," of Kentucky, and is Of tine true Morgan stock. The other, "Pca- years old, l512 hands high, weighs 1l50 pounds, of fine style and fast trotter. " Peacock " was raised by Leander Sawyer of San Mateo, California. He is of the Messenger stock, and was sired by Saw yer's "Gray Messenger" They are both magnificent horses, and of course, gay and high mettled; were driven harnessed to 8 light buggy, with the greatest ease and Salety, both being of the most kind and tractable disposition.
 MT. Hooker, in connection with Win. B. Hooper & G., is giving much attention to the breeding of fine cattle and horses in Arizona. They have large lot of cows and about & dozen thoroughbred bulls, and in & few years will undoubtedly have, provided we have continued peace with the Indians, the finest lot of young horses and cattle ip the Territory. Every body about Tucson who saw Mir. HoOlIer's hoT- ses, were emphatic in their admiration oi them, and expressed themselves gratified that such were being brought here. Prob ably R. R. Haines had not seen Mir. Hook CT before he told his absurdly false story to The Mirror.
