The telegraph tells us that the good people of PhGnix are greatly exercised over the Capital removal question. They think their town IS entitled to be the future Capital of Arizona, by right divine, water right or some other right.
 The people of Tucson are not a whit be- hind those sf Phoenix in their Capital aspira- tions. They have it now and mean to keep it.
 Prescott people have hopes that the Cap ital will come back here, to its old location, and we hope it will, as, Tn our poor judgment, Prescott is the proper place for the Capital It Is the larges. American town in the Ter rtory and, of course, the healthiest. Then, we consider it the heart of the best mining, grazing and timber sections of the Territory. so, we say to the Legislature, give us back the Capital and so aid us to raise Arizona to the position that belongs to her among other great geographical divisions of the Republic. Prescott people would feel duly grateful for the passage of bill giving them the Capital. and would, thereby, be nerved to noblcr deeds than any of those for which they are already famous.
 As the pioneer town of Northern Arizona. Prescott has we'll and nobly done her duty Tn upholding the banner of civilization against barbarous foes, and conquering from their grasp the farest, richest and best portion of the Territory. We, therefore, ask Legislators to think of Prescott and her claims when voting upon the question.

A Washington letter to the San Francisco Bulletin says: A sensational story has been set afioat in some Eastern papers to the eff feet that Delegate Mccormick had got Pres ident Grants order to push "big job'' through the Post-ofiice Department in con- nection with the mail service between San Diego, Cal, and La Mesilla, New Mexico. 1t is hardly necessary to say that the Presi- dent had nothing whatever to do with the matter in question; but it may be we'll to state that the facts are these: The Cali fornia delegation and the Delegates from Ar izona and New Mexico filed petitions for a reduction of the schedule time on this route from twelve to eight days, on the ground that the shortening of the schedule was ne cessary to furnish proper mail facilities for tho large extent of country travcrsed, includ- ing about dozen military posts; whereupon the Postmaster General made the desired order, and allowed the contractor something less than the proportionately increased pay. The increase was from S55, 900 to SlO0,O00 per annum; at which latter rate the service cost considerably less than half what has been paid during the previous four years, and IS now acknowledged 10 be very moderate compensation. Among those asking the re- duction of time were Gen. Crook, Gov. Saf- ford, and Senators Sargent and Hager.
 The Secretary of War has written to the House Committee of Military Affairs, recom- mending, as measure of economy, the pas sage of bill, introduced by Mccormick, ap- propriating S30000 for the construction or improvement of military wagon roads from Prescott to Skull valley, from Tucson to Camp Apache, and from Prescott to Camp Verde, in Arizona Territory.

TERRITORIAL LEGISLATURE,
From our Special Legislative Correspondent. 1
TuCsoN. Januarv 70 1S7r

TUCSoN, January 70, 1875
 The House has passed bill abolshing the office of Attorney General. Also, a bill do- mating 10 citizens the outstanding arms be- longing to the Territory and providing for a disposition of the arms, ammunition, et- cetera on hand. This probably with a view to abolishing the office of Adjutant- General. Also passed bill to pay the Territorial Treasurer for taking care of the Territorial weights and measures.
 In the Council, House bill to encourage sinking of artesian wells, has been amended so as to read, Five thousand five hundred dollars to the first person or persons who shall sink well that will flow for thirty days, net nearer than five miles from runninr streams" and so passed.
 Also passed bill to divorce George Toden- worth from Jesus $. Todenworth.
 Also, bill fixing fees of district clerk for naturalization papers: First papers, S2 i; second papers, S.
 TUcsoN, January 21, 1875. The House killed the Council bill to di- vorcc Geo. Todenworth from Jesus s. Tod enworth. It is probable that no bill will get through at this session which pertains to divorce. The vote on the above measure was a very decided one.
 The House has also refused to concur in the Council amendments to the artesian we'll bill.
 The Council has passed the bill to create the county of Pinal.
 Tucsox, Dec. 9. House bill, No. 10, relating to disincorpo- ration of villages, was amended by the Coun- cil Committee on Territorial Affairs, so as to provide for the calling of an election by the Common Council upon the application of 9 taxpayers; amendment adopted and Bill passed the Council.
 The House refused to adopt the Council amendment 10 the Artesian We'll Bill. and Committee of Conference has been appointed. Several bills of no importance were also passed in the Council. and like number in the House. Very little work is being done. and the members hardly ever agree on any one Bill. Up to this time, only one Bill has been completed and sent to the Governor for his signature. and that Bill was to change . mans name. A petition from Wickenburg. signed by li0 l persons. asking that they be attached to Aaricopa county, has arrived. It is proha- hle that no opposition will be made to their request.

"The grasshoppers are depositing

DR.. ". L. Rice.

In a letter from Fulton, Mo-, Mr.J.
r. Reavis, a travelling correspondent
of the st. Louis Times, thus writes
of this venerable and distinguished
citizen of Missouri, who is now pres
ident of Westminster College, the
principal education institution of the
.. 5. Presbyteriams Of the West:
He was born in December, 1893, i'll
Garrard county, Ky, and was educa-
ted at Center college, with theeXpec-
tation Of making lawyer. He
changed his mind, however, and went
to Princeton Theological Seminary,
and prepared himself for the minis
try. When through with his studies.
he came back to Kentucky, and took
pastoral charge of the church at
BartlstOWn. Here he got into seri-
Gus controversy with the Catholic
Church, which resulted in suit f0I
SANDER being instituted against him
by the Catholic priest. a man whose
name was Milley McPherson had
mysteriOusly disappeared from the
convent at BardstoWn, and DR.. Rice
laid it to the intrigue Of the priest.
John j. Crittenden and Gov. Wye
life were for the defense, Ben Har-
din and Judge Bowman for the pros
ecution. 1t was Il great trial. and re-
suited in the acquittal of DR.. Rice.
Many years after that it was Il famil-
lar question iii the newspapers.
Where is Milley McPhersOn:" but
the question was never answered.
In 1913, DR.. Rice was selected by
the Presbyterian churchto hold the
celebrated debate with Alex. Camp
bell, at Lexington, Ky. This was i'll
the days Of hot controversy between
the churches, ana the two men were
brought together as an. attempt tC
settle some points of difference. The
debate lasted sixteen days, and was
characterized throughout by the
greatest dignity and decorum. Henry
Clay was the president moderator,
and he afterwards expressed the
greatest admiration of the conduct
of the two combat ants. L said to DIR.
Rice: "What is your opinion OF Dr.
Campbell?" lie said: 81 think he
was a great man. He ewas an admir-
able debater. fair scholar and deep
thinker. 1t was pleasure to hold q
discussion with such a man, and
have always been glad that L met
him. | regard him as one OF the dis
men of his time"
Did you ever meet Mr.. Campbell
after the debate?"
Il never did, though we afterwards
had some correspondence

the nomination Of Speaker Blain Will

party but draw to it the support of a
large number!of voters who have not

We had a splendid rain last week.
Most farmers have quit blowing corn
and are now making hay.
The health of our people is not so
good IS usual. and many cases of sick
ness arc reported, but none serious.
The greater part of the stock that
was sent ont with the hcrdshave been
returned in q worse. condition than
when they left.
Two of Monroc's oldest citizens
were called away from this Stage of
action during last week, Mrs. Dun
can, an esteemed lady, and the venC-
rated pioneer Mr.. Samuel Brown.
Travelling over parts Of Monroe,
Rochester, Jefferson, Washington and
Nodaway townships, we find crops
looking promising, but not so good as
reported. All needing rain more or
less, but Rochester and Monroe seem
more fortunate than the others, and,
OF course. present better appearance

The jury in the Mountain Meadow
massacre case have been discharged
unable to agree. Upon this the Times
remarks: a large proportion of the
jurors, some say eight OF twelve, were
Mormons. Il is reported that they
stood nine for acqulttal and three for
conviction. A verdict outside OF
court has its unsatisfactory aspects:
but it does not seem possible that
any one who has paid attention to the
evidence can have any doubt that the
prosecution have convicted the Nor
mon hierarchy of being accessory to,
if not issuing orders for, the massa-
ere of the one hundred and twenty
cmigrants who were killed in 1857.
That verdict to this effect was pos
sible from jury largely composed OF
Mormons was not TO be expected.
