The Republican Senate and Democratic House in Congress seem to vie with each. other in demagogue practices, each hoping to improve the chances of their partizan nominees for the Presidency by acts oi parsimony and niggardly littlcness in the matter of appropriations. The House took the initiatory steps and sought to popularize the Democracy by pretended economy in holding just dues from those who are fur nishing the sinues of war, and the Senate seems to be craven enough to cover before the threatened advantage such action will give their political adversaries in certain quarters, and announce that they are ready, to meet the House half way in all reduc- tions that.will not affect existing laws.
 They should have had the courage to do right, as statesmen, regardless of appear ances, or what the effect might be on po- litical campaign. Every member of both Houses understands that the Government cannot be carried on without money, and that it is no economy to withhold just 3D. populations which must sooner or later be made, with additions to cover the expense of delay.

The prettiest specimen of gold in crystal ized quartz we ever saw or heard of, was shown us by Col. C. F. Head, and came from what is known as Rows mine, near the Gila This specimen is three or four inches in length, showing the perfect faces of the crystal, which arc not so smooth and glassy as quartz crystals usually are; but to make up for any want of regularity or polish, it is thoroughly impregnated, as it were, with the brightest and most beautiful quality of gold, which extends in blotches from base to apex, and terminates at the top in a sort of golden cap.

PRESS CoMINe.-Our new cylinder press is now on the way from Chicago, and if no unnecessary delays occur it will reach here in August, after which time we shall enlarge the MINER, so as to do more ample justice to many interests that for want of room, at present, we are obliged to pass over with very brief mention. In the mean time, however, we shall be much obliged to par ties living in any part of the Territory for condensed reference to what is transpiring in their several localities. After the arrival of the new press We think of running daily paper giving all the telegrams at least until after the Presidential election in November and if it can be made to pay, shall continue it indefinitely. We have no political object nor ambition in publishing paper in Ari- zona, but are ambitious to publish good newspaper which shall fully and fairly rep- resent every industrial and social interest, and which shall give to every one his or her just mead of praise for duty we'll performed and censure where censure is deserved; this is our ambition, and this is our motive, in ordering improved machinery and preparing tomeet any emergency as to quantity or quail ity of printing, that an anticipated improve ment in our mining operations may bring about. This statement of the case would be incomplete however, and false, at least by implication, were we not to add that un- deriving all these considerations we hope ul- timately to make it profitable as business investment.

DOMESTIC INFELcITY.-Police court sketches being all the rage in some of the Eastern cities, Prescott, not to be behind in the race of progress, has been trying her hand at the new sensation, and some of her court sceues if written up by the Detroit Free Press man would eclipse anything that worthy has yet given to the public
 On Saturday evening in Judge Otis court occurred case growing out of domestic in felicity, in which wife drank too deeply of theintoxicating cup,had sought the residence of ''soiled doven where she was comfortably lodged when her liege found her, and with pursuasive speech besought her to return and resume her domestic duties. To this she de- murred in terms more emphatic than polite, closing her speech with an inueudo that seemed to cast & reflection on her husbands maternal progenitor. This aroused the spirit of manhood in his breast, here there was a discrepancy in the testimony as to whether she fell out of bed, or whether he pulled her out, but at any rate she was on the floor, and to use his own words, as given in testimony
 
 he "raised her dress, and spanked her gently on the hip as he would an erring child" Meanwhile the witness made waving mo- ton with his right hand to show the jury how tenderiy and affectionately the chastise- ment was administered. Other witnesses expressed it in different language and con- veyed to the minds of the jury a different impression, but as he ought to know best what he did we only give his version. The climax was that he had her arrested on charge of being drunk and disorderly, of which the Jury acquitted her and appended to their verdict that she was entitled to divorce, and she had him arrested for as- sault and battery, to which he plead guilty, and was fined $20.

SOUTHERN CLAIMS.
How They are Viewed at the

The most utterly absurd OF all the

nrebel CLAIMS" 1t is worse than absurd;
il il wicked falsehood. 1t is gross de-
ception attempted to be prscticed upon
the Northern people.
If there were such an issue really
presented it could only rest upon a
Southern sentiment, 3 strong popular
opinion in the South demanding such
claims. Not only is there no such SEN
timent, no such, effort 10 collect such
claims, except where they are based upon
a fraudulent effort to take advantage OF
Republican laws in favor OF loyal ele-
ments.' The Southern people only view
them with contempt, and they merit no
favor from any class. OF course, under
Republican laws, loyal men, who were
strictly loyal, had clear right to collect
claims. The others are fraudulent, and so
regsrded. The sentiment of the Southern
people is that such claims should be, one
and all, rejected. So far as the South are
concerned they believe that those who
stood together in active sympathy should
hear the loss that has only fallen on
them in common with others. They
view with no favor that cropping around

general wreck IN which all lost some

COST Of. HAYES ELECTION /!
One of The Burdens it Would I'M
pose on Taxpayers

The election of Hayes BY the Party OF
Plumber means the payment OF the i'm
mense war claims now owned by the
Radical, Washington and Carpet-Bag
Rings. t.r.u. ~.
The Radical AID Congress passed bulls
for the payment of Southern claims TO
tae amount of 90, $4,000. ~
The Democratic House Of the 44th
Congress, in spite of the efforts OF the
Rings. rejected these claims, and award
Ell for war damages only $74, 400.
The Democratic House passed only
claims owned BY loyal citizens and still
held by the original claimants. .
The Republican Congress passed ex-
aggersted and fictitious claims owned by
ring brokers, and founded upon de-
mands OF rebels .fs
Nearly all the Southern claims are
now the property of Radical Rings.
They are particularly anxious Tor Radi-
cal success, because they know by exper-
fence that the Democrats will not aid
their plunderlng schemes.

drug known as the "chromate Of lead'

cloth enveloping the genuine Cincinnati

The substances used by our Cincin-

ochre, and barytes-to, say, 500 hams,
about one barrel OF flour paste, 20 pounds
OF yellow ochre for coloring, and about
3 pounds OF barytes for solidity of adhe-
sion. Now let our French chemist put
that in his pipe and smoke it out by
chemical analysis, and he will never
find a single particle OF poisonous or
harmful matter enveloping a genuine
Cincinnati ham. The Frenchmen have
been cruelty hoaxed.
