William A. Wheeler, Republican
candidate for Vice-President, recently
repeated several already refuted false
hoods with respect to the appointments
made by the House of Representatives.

ments on the roll of the doorkeeper, 80
served in the Union army, 10 in the
Confederate army, in the Mexican Ill
are colored, and 90 are non-combatants,

can House had 1913 appointees, one OF
whom states that there were only IS

with perfect certainty that
it will eradicate the disease, and with assur-
ance, founded on proof, that no harm can
arise from its use in any quantity,
That which protects from prevents this
disorder must be of immense service in the
communities where it prevails. Prevention
is better than cure; for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks OF
this baleful distemper. This CUREn expels
the masmatc poison of Fever and Aeu0
from the system, and prevents the develop
ment of the disease, if taken on the first
approach of its premonitory symptoms. A
great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and Ger.
tain cure of Intermittents is, that it contains
no Quinine or mineral; consequently it pro-
duces no quinism or other injurious effects
whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
by it are left rs healthy as if they had never
had the disease
Fever and Ague is not alone the con.
sequence of the miasmatic poison. A great
variety of disorders arise from its irritation,
among which are Neuralgia, Esheunaa.
tfsna, GOut, Headache, Blindnese.
ToOthache. Esarache. Catarrh, Assh.
ma, HalpitatiOn, Painful AMecta0n
of the spleen, HI ysterics, Pain in tho
Bowels. Collie, Paralysis, and derange-
ment of the Stomach, all of which, when
originating in this cause, put on the inter-
mittcnt type, or become periodical This
"CURE" expels the poison from the blood,
and consequently cures them all alike. It ia
an Invaluable protection to immigrants and
persons travelling or temporarily residing in
the malarious districts If taken OCCASION
ally or daily while exposed to the infection,
that will be excreted Gom the system, and
cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity to
ripen into disease. Hence it is even more
valuable for protection than cures and few
will ever suffer from Intermittents IL they
avail themselves of the protection this rem
edy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpid
ity of the Liver, it is an excellent remedy,
stimulating the Liver into healthy activity,
and producing matiy truly remarkable cures,
where other medicines fail. -

 In pursuance of letter from the Secretary of the Commission, calling his attention to the resolution, Govern or Stafford this week appointed Hon. R. c. Mccormick to prepare and deliv.

It is certain that the is the very best that could have been made, and as in all other matters pertaining to his official con- nection with Arizona affairs, Governor Mccormick will discharge this respon. sible duty in manner alike credltable to the Territory and himself.

The General cites in the beginning the authority vested in him, reviews the disastrous consequences of the civil conflict rag- Ing Tn Sonora, appeals to the patriotism Of his countrymen, demonstrates inc lmposSibility of arriving at any satis factory adjustment while the conflict continues, and closes by semi-authorita- lively asking cessation of hostilities and consultation with himself bv tbe leaders and representatives of bo,b sides to the unpleasantness His clos ing paragraph is good: Men or So nora, entreat you, then, in the nsro oi the supreme government of Mexico Whlch l represent, in the name of Inn manity and industry and social inter ests' to stop all hostilities. while Q conference takes place with the govern ment or the State.

Estimates.

Referring to the late report of the
 general superintendent of Wells, Fargo
 6 O., of the value of precious metals
 produced in the States and Territories
 west of the Missouri river, for the year
 of 1875, and in which Arizona's pro duct is placed at s1O9,093. (undoubted-
 ly with the best of intentions, but not derived from sny complete means of
 information,) The Engineering and
 Mining Journal, of New Yor'-, in its issue of February 26, says: "In the case of Arlzona the amount credited it by this agen: is clearly too small. To suppose that population of nine or ten thousand, more than third of the number of adult men actually engaged in mining, should be able to produce an average of not more than S36 each in the course of year, would be man. ifestly absurd. Arizona contains con- siderable extent of placers, some of which are being actively worked; a large portion of the Territory aboundsI in gold and silver bearing lodes, sever. al of which have been opened up and Outfitted with mills or smelling works that have been operated quite steadily throughout the year; some ores con- taining the precious metals have mean time been exported from the country, and to fix its last annual bullion yield at half million dollars would certain ly not be too high"
 While this estimate of the above journal is not as high as interested parties would place Arizona's produc- ton of gold and silver for the last year, still in the absence of any collected iata, it may safely be adopted, as it is clearly not an txaggeration, in the opinion of those best informed.
