terior outlined early in this letter
 are rains notably in November, Jan uary, March, July and August. Ex- cepting near the Colorado and on the lower Gila, the rains of January, March, July and August are heavy and frequent. In the northern, east tern and southern land therefore cen- tral, tool portions the rains of last month and this have been rather too heavy. In the spring and summer months named, the rains remind one of the winter falls ill the Sierras of your State, with accompaniments of vivid lightning and the most terrific thunder. Within ten days the streets of Tucson have looked more like rivers than dirt roads. Similar falls are reported at Prescott and at other places. The whole country is drench- ed in the periods stated, save near the Colorado river, where the fall is usually light, but your great Cobra do desert is SO near that it's burning sands and winds neutralize dampness thereabouts. General Hagen will very likely regard these watery state ments overdrawn, but no resident of Arizona will, unless he have 8 love for lying or reckless contradiction.

tmeasGFUED NEXT WEEK.

PHILADELPHIA, September 1O.- The Democratic State Convention at Erie have adopted a platform taking the most advanced ground in favor of an imitation of the currency, going beyond the party in Ohio in the de- mand for soft money. The plank de- nounces the hard money policy of the Republican party and its proposed steps for speedy return to a specie basis, and demands the abandonment of this policy and an increase of the volume of greenbaoks to equal the wants of trade.

OCTOBER l3, W. W. Mccoy telegraphed Charles T. Etchells, that his wagon was on the way here from San Bernardino, and that he would start the next day. He brings with him the necessary machinery to sink an artesian well in Tucson. This
 being the case, everybody here will wish the wagon, its load and MT. Mccoy quick and safe journey. It really looks now as if Tucson would have an artesian well and
 the first, but we hope not the las;, in the

LOCAL MA TIERS.

LAST April, W. B. Hellings X Go. brought
 a large lot of bacon to Tucson, which they
 cured in their establishment at East Phe-
 nix in Salt river valley. It is worthy of
 special notice that that bacon, what has
 not been heretofore sold, is now in just as
 fine order as the day it came here, and we
 doubt ira 5ktter article was ever offered
 for sale any1S Sere. July and August were notably warm and somewhat damp
 months. From Apearances, this Arizona
 bacon will keep sAet and nice for years. Not another pound of bacon, pork, beef, Tor meat of any kind, should hereafter be brought from abroad for use in Arizona. Our products and climate seem especially adapted to the making and curing of meats. The beef in our markets now is especially fat and tender. The fattest we ever saw was in George Fosters shop early this week. He bought the animals from the Papago Indians, and there surely was an excessively large amount of fat on them.

tiers nave recently located 1n It's val ley with thousands of head of sheep
 cattle and horses. There are many small streams tributary to 1t. The
 mountains in that section are literally
 bubbling with springs. The Mogol-
 Ion mountains are noted for many rushing streams similar to the beuti- ful Truckee of your State and Nevada. They cover an area of many thousands of square miles, and contain hundreds of thousands of acres of heavy timber composed chiefly of pine, oak, ash, spruce, wild cherry, etc. On an in- spection through there in 1870, Gen eral Stoneman declared that millions of money were being lost every year for want of cattle and sheep to graze on its mountains and along its deli cious streams. 1 make no pretentions
 of having mentioned all the streams,
 but only those I am sure of, and of enough for the purpose of a newspaper article. Then the immense resources available by artesian wells has not been considered, and in making a proper estimate of Arizona's water supply, 1t properly belongs. The many mountains filled with never failing springs are ample evidence that artesian water in great abundance can be found in our valleys and mesa or table lands.

draped figures, as of sculpture. Against

Economizing the Heat of the Body.

THE correspondents Of the London
Times have been discussing several mat
tiers connected with the weather, one of
whom makes the following very sensible
remarks in regard to ec0nomizing the
heat Of the body: He warns persons
against allowing themselves to be I'M
necessarily cold within doors, comparing
it to the act Of a spendthrift who wastes
his capital in his youth and has no in
come left for his old age. To keep
warm, to retain heat within the body
instead of spending it, is just as judi
cious as to husband money with proper
economy, and every one who wishes to
be able to face cold with impunity
should regard the avoidable expenditure
and loss of heat as foolish extravaganza.
To attempt to harden" people, and es-
peCially children, against cold is all
nonsense. Cold can only be resisted
by vital combustion within the body,
and the body can only burn what is
supplied to it, and that only in the
measure Of the capacity of the furnace.
Every Out WHO Is 6ApOScu " COIu QIdNS
upon his heat-producing power for hiS
means of resistance, and has so much
less remaining with which to meet the
next demand. Persons who live in warm
houses, and who wear warm clothing,
may go out into any degree of cold with
impunity, while those who suffer them
selves to be half-chilled at home must ex-
pect to be half-frozen when they are
abroad
In regard to food, adults would do well
Systematically to eat more fat than usual
in winter; and children may often be in
duced TO do so if it is concealed by any
of the familiar articles of cookery. The
thick gravy of an Irish stew, for exam
pie, may be made to carry much fat that
would otherwise be wasted; and if the
matter cannot thus be managed it will
be found that nearly all delicate children
will readily take Cod-liver oil during he
colder months-N. 7. Observer

Something To Do.

IF any of us have sometimes felt lit
tie down at the moderate gains of the
farmer and his hard work, in comparison
with some other kinds of business, we
have gotten over it this winter when we
see so many compelled to be idle. What
a blessed thing to have always something
TO do! How many fears and anxieties
are shut out by it! How much health
and cheerfulness come Of it! The farm
er is never compelled to be idle. He
always has something to do worth doing,
and he gets sure pay, if it is perhaps
rather moderate. / have sometimes prom
ised men in my employ-who wanted to
stipulate that they should have steady
employment-that they should have an
extra quarter when out OF work 1t is
safe promise. There are a good many
jobs about the farm, works of repair and
Improvement, which we were obliged to
leave a few years ago, when labor was so
scarce, that we can now take up and pur-
sue, to the relief of laboring men and to
our own profit. 1t is very much to the
credit of the laboring men here among
the farmers, and those engaged in some
of the iron works, that they conform vol
UNFAIRLY and without complaint in their
demands for wages to the condition OF
the times. To stop work is the poorest
remedy for hard times that was ever sug-
gested. If there has been over,produc-
ton in any one branch of labor, let that
excess be drawn off as rapidly as posi-
bic by an increased activity in other
branches Of labor, and make an equilib-
rum by an exchange of products. If
the farmer has any extra labor, he can
invest it in permanent improvements,
where it will probably pay a better inter
est than railroad bonds.-DutcheSS Go. IN.

A $500 Counterfeit.

ONE of the Secret Service officers OF
the United States Treasury Department
recently discovered that $500 United
States Treasury note had been in circula-
ton in Maine about which there was a
doubt as to genuineness. The note was
found at one of the banks in that State
which had stopped its circulation, al
though the cashier was himself in doubt
as to whether it was counterfeit or
otherwise, it having been examined
at the bank by a gentleman who is
engaged in teaching the art of detect
ing counterfeit money, and pronounced
by him a genuine bill. 1t was sent to
this city and has been examined by the
chief operative of the Boston district
of the Secret Service Division and by
an expert at the Treasury, who
both have pronounced it a counterfeit.
For the benefit of that portion of the
public who have many five-hundred bills
we have made an inquiry at the New
England office of the Secret Service in
this city and Mr.. Kent informs us that
the difference between genuine SoOO
United States Treasury note and the
counterfeit is that on the genuine the
buttons on the coat of John Quincy
Adams are perfectly round, while on the
counterfeit they have an irregular or
more of an octagonal form; on the genu-
inc the small toes of the female figure
of Justice are full and natural, while on
the counterfeit the small toes are very
small and the little ones very obscure.
He says there are very few of these
notes in circulation or even in existence,
and that probably no counterfeit, not
excepting the fves of the Traders Ma
tional Bank of Chicago, has ever been
issued which is so well calculated to
deceive-B0St0n Journal
