EW TRIAL. ASKED FOR CARDOZO.

NEW TRIAL ASKED FOR CARD0zO.
COLUMBIA, November 17.-This morning
Judge Melton argued the motion for new
trial in the case OF Cardozo. The excep-
lions cover over thirty pages, and embrace
points OF law which have never arisen in
thisEountry before. 1t is also claimed that
owing to some technical irregularity in the
preparation Of the jury-lists two OF the
jurors were Ineligible. An interview with
the sheriff revealed the fact that there are
reasonable grounds for that objection.

Is the Capital Located ?

We have been daily expecting
 to hear of some legislative action in regard ia final location of the Capital. We can not believe that
 1avapai O'DylS the Maricopas and think that when the matter comes up again they may vote in favor of Phoenix. Ed. Peck may think himself better of with good road from his mines in the Peck
 District to Capital at Phoenix,
 than 10 continue to pay tribute to
 Prescott over the present circuit Ous road. Phoenix or Florence Suit Yuma best. Phoenix is more convenient to PinaI than Prescott ever eau be, and Pima's vote as against Yavapai can not be doubt ed. In the general log rolling the Capital may remain at Tucson af- ter all. which, for the next two years, would he best for the whole Territory. A new ApportiOnmeGt Bill is in order and we hope will be passed. IL should provide for a new census surrounded with guards against error and fraud. Yavapai might oppose it for fear Of losing her present lions share of representation. But no sane man can doubt, that within the next two years our rich mines and R. R. communications will have given Arizona population enough to eDtitie her to adnis- sion to the Union as State. We only lack 20,090 sonls to- day, Of having tbe requisite 60.000; and if immigration continues at the rafe experienced for the past six months, we shall have enough in less than year. We trust that mere sectional preferences jn re- gard to location Of the Capital will not be suffered 10 defeat an end so desirable. Let Us have the census and become a State, re- gardiess of where that census may finally locate the Capital.

Good Road to Railroad Terminus.

The Southern Pacific engineer ing party lately made a careful and exhaustive survey of the route from Fort Yuma to Indian
 Wells through the pass north of the Carga MUchachO mountains, and between that range and Chim- hey Peak. They report the route not so favorable for Railroad conS- tructiOn, as the one already locat- ed farther to the South West, and on which the Railroad is now be- ing made, but, though some four or five miles longer. they speak of 1t as better wagon road. It is over good, firm ground all the way, and can be made an excellent stage and freight road With an expenditure of less than S2O0,0O. No natural water was found on tue road between Fort Yuma and Frink's springs. except Mammoth Tanks; but in several places there were many indications that water could be reached by wells Of mo derate depth.
