The CRmeIs are Coming.

The camels formerly used in packing salt to the ComstOck mines, will short ly be taken 10 Arizona, for service m the deserts of that country. Since the introduction of these animals into Ne Vada, some ten years ago, they have in. creased by breeding from eight to foriy-two-Ex
 This prospective coming of the cam. els IS very apportune IL is shameful Tact, probably not known to the world at large, that the great Territory of Ari- zona, with an area of 113,OO0 square miles, including standing room for the editor of the Arizona Miner, has not hitherto had solitary head of cam. els, within ils confines. At least the superintendent of Wells, Fargo GS Co. doesn't make any mention of such an animal (the camel, not the editor of the Miner in his late report. And he ought to know, because his company has offices in Oregon.
 We are particularly glad that these animals are coming. Times are hard and good many people here and else where, who hadn't anything to do when we first knew them, some four years ago, have more than ordinarily had nothing to do lately They have been growing more and more bitter against fate and their fellows, as the pressure of hard times crowded them. But here will be something to do at last They can look at these camels. Let their souls be glad once more. There shall be camels in the streets. with natural pin backs on there shall be corners toI stand at. and hands in pockets. and satisfied souls, and perchance music.

 C. U.

B. T. Riggs, an experienced miner from the Comstock, has taken charge of the work, and it seems to be theI determination of the company to make it lively in that locality. MT.

 This being the case, it is not surprising that bad men and their mouthpieces abuse and misrepresent him; good men as rule are basely opposed by the bad ones the world over Mir. Ochoa knows that the PesQueira rule in Sono- rs has been and continues extremely disastrous to the people, and says so and acts accordingly. In recent cor respOndence with Gen. l. Pesqueira, he told that friend of thieves and mur- derers what he thought of him. For this, Pesqueira's Ures organ charges him with inhumanity and other base characteristics, and makes 8 few lying specifications-at least We take the liberty of pronouncing them false, sf ter a somewhat familiar acquaintance with him and his acts for period of nearly six years, as well as upon the reputation he bears wherever We have heard his name mentioned in Arizona and New Mexico Pesqueira gains nothing by abuse of Mir. Ochoa, but will thereby secure new opponents and increase the ardor of many old ones. Alr. O. is the true and useful friend of the worthy poor, of the oppressed, and of good government For these reaSonsi he is opposed to the Pesqueiras and their bad government in Sonora, and when impudenlly taken to task there for by l. Pesgueira. he replied boldly as only an honest and sincere man would, telling such unwelcome truths. that the Ures paper, doubtless al. Pesqueira's bidding, turned loose al volley of abuse ana defamation of him. We want no better evidence of the bad character of the Pesqueiras and their government in Sonora, than thelr pref erence and protection of thieves and murderers, and their oppression and abuse of good people I home and abroad

NetU Castle Affairs.

A number of improvements are being
made in New Castle, among which we notice
that Mr.. Horseshoemaker is preparing to
build large three-story brick house on
Market street near Delaware street, the
lower story will be divided and fitted up as
two very fine stores.
Squire Peter B. Vandevere Is erecting on
Orange street, near Harmony street, large
three-story brick, which when completed
will be used by his son Walter Vandevere,
ESQ, as dry goods and trimming store ;
the store will be opened during the early
part of November.
Delaware street cast of Market street is
being repaired.
In great contrast to the improvements
going on In New Castle is the Republican
Wigwam, little frame shanty erected on
the market space on Market street, which
should meet the same fate that awaited
Shantytown, Philadelphia, and at once be
torn down by order of His Honor, the
Mayor, as it is not only disgrace to New
Castle, but a very dangerous structure,
liable to fire at any time.

He regretted that the Southern States

bad men from the north had placed In
power such men as Moses, and others, and
solved the important question by stating
that If all the educated persons of the

NEW CASTLE, Sept. ~, 1876.
EDITOR HERALD:-Grant me, beg, the
space to make an appeal to the charitably
disposed citizens of Delaware, in behalf Of
the plague stricken cities of Georgia.
Even the meagre telegraphic reports of
the distress in Savannah and Brunswick, arc
hcart-rendering enough to touch the sensi-
bilities of the least sympathetic, but a full
exposure of the facts would be simply ap-
palling.
Some conception of the demand upon the
resources of the Benevolent Association OF
Savannah may be formed from the fact th at
their disbursements average about $4,000
daily.
Private adyices just received, indicate that
Darien, between Savannah and Brunswick,
has been invaded by the pestilence also. AS
yellow fever almost always prevails more
extensively, and is more fatal in small com
munities, in proportion to population, than
in large, in Darien, as in Brunswick, the
suffering will be universal and excessive.
