TUcsoS, May 2.-Yesterday quite a
large party visited the wonderful old
church of San Xavier, which stands in
the valley of the Santa Cruz, some nine
miles south OF Tucson. 1t is supposed
to have been built more than two hun
dred years ago by a people who have
passed away without leaving scarcely a
trace as to who they were, whence they
came or where they went. There are
many superslitions and speculations as
to who were the builders, but their his
tory is unknown. The church is still
solid, substantial structure OF rather ele-
giant architecture, covering several hun
dred feet Of ground. two stories high,
gothic in style, with two or three domes,
steeples and spires; in one of the domes
is chime OF bells. There is some little
iron and some light wood work about
the windows, doors, etc., but the main
building, walls, galleries, upper and
lower floors, roof and steeples are all
built of brick, stone, adobe or cement
no timber of any kind having been used
in the construction. The upper floor,
roof and domes are supported by small
arches and grand archways composed of
the above mentioned materials. Some
of the ornamental plaster work, both
within and without the building, to-
gether with the fine finish of the inside
walls, and the upper floor, which is
marked out in squares of variegated
colors, is still smooth and beautiful.
There is also a number of life-size i'm
ages, representing the Saviour, Virgin
Mary, some of the Apostles and Saints,
most all of which are in a very good
state of preservation Arizona Miner,

CHICAGO, May Ex-senator Carpenter
consln railroad law. The Senator holds
that the Legislature has ample powers to
alter, amend or totally repeal the char
ters OF railroad corporations. 1t may
give them enlarged privileges, or restrict
Vi amend those they already possess. He
Ion'ro'efts the assumption Of Curtis and
H'afts that railways are private estates,
ana quotes eopiously from judicial decs-
IONS IN support of the contrary view
mat railways are public domain and
eGlshways for the use of the people.
senator Carpenter concludes his letter
oh tne Wisconsin railroad law by declar-
ny 'hat all corporations of State Gre
a'ed under the Constitution hold their
franchises subject to the will of the Leg
stature. Men who invest means in rail
.oaus ana railroad securities may safely
rely on the good faith of the Legislature
ana the love of even-handed Justice by
'he people. If the provisions of the law
are IN any way unjust to the companies
1wn!cn he does not believe) the next
Legislature will modify them; but it will
orcur 10 every one that it is not the
surest method to secure an impartial
reconsideration M of the subject to insult
.ne state by defiance of this law. All
must obey the law while it exists. The
remedy for law that operates injurious
", is 10 procure its repeal.

A BIT of a duel with grubbing hoes
took place over that everlasting source
of quarrels, the irrigation question, yes.
terday. Two neighbors who have been
pegging away at each other for several
years met upon the sedgy bank of ditch
which divides their ranches, and from
pushing got to fencing with hoes, and
one of them got his hand pretty badly
hoed, while the other found his back
rather seriously weeded and the top soil
of his head-piece somewhat roughly cul-
tivated. Friends separated the belliger-
ents before anything serious occurred
