I'm a Swing.


Each daisy underneath your feet Should count itself thrice happy sweet; Each purple troduen clover head Should thank you, even when 'tis dead. How blest is every twisted strand Of rope enclrcled by your handi Now up little; fasterl sol While through the soft June air you go, I wish that might always stay Below you. as am, today, Keeping you far above all care That other women have to bear; And, high in air though you might be, YOu always must come back to me.
 lsHE.l Dear heart, if June staid all year long, If twisted ropes were always strong, 1T daisy bloom and clover head Were never brown and wIthered; If ever robin in the tree Did not look down and wink at me, And say, That creature tries to fly, But knows not how to soar on high;" If could bring these things to pass, Then should stand upon the grass, And above your head would swing. But life is quite another thing; Since one of us on earth must bide The other should not leave his side.

From Ehe Aztec District.

By the return of Gov. Stafford anC | Col. Graham, from the Aztec district we learn some very interesting and en cOuraging facts. Work has been push ed on the Aztec lode with all speed, anC sinking is going on in all of the shafts three Tn number, on that mine. Int character of the ore is the same 1T shafts No and No. 3, but changing somewhat in shaft No. 2, more chlo rides coming in.
 On the Inca, work has begun anC the prospect is very good so far as open ed, the character of the ore as yet being unchanged from the surface.
 On the Iturbide mine, It has been de cided to drive a tunnel in from 75 tC 100 feet, and then cross-cut, to cut eacf of the lodges, and there are five of them coming into the hill. These five ledg es lie from side to side within a space of 150 feet, and one seems on the sur face quite as strong as the other. Green and yellow chlorIdes show very strong ly upon every ledge, and there is every indication of first class mine.
 These gentlemen express themselves as very highly pleased with the condi' ton of affairs in the district, and, as we are informed that the Aztec people con template the erection uf reduction works at an early day, we may expect the best results from this section.
 We are informed that the Tubac Mill and Mining Company, Qimlted) of Lon don, has at last taken steps to work their property. A force has been put on the Empress of India and also on the old Salero lode, and Manager Ma. gee will push things as rapidly as the men and means at his disposal will per. init. It is to be hoped that the En- glish company will follow the example of the Aztec Company and put il suffi cient capital to develop their properties ID a thorough manner. Capital and skill are needed in southern Arizona in quartz mining, and without them, as elsewhere, little success can be expect ed; with them, great successes are quite certain.

New Indian Commissioner.

A Washington dispatch says: Mr. Hoyt, to whom the office of Commis- sioner of Indian Affairs has been ten. dered, had a long interview today with Secretary Schurz with reference to accepting the place. MT. Hoyt is not disposed 10 accept unless he can have reasonable assurance that the sal ary will be increased, and that the care of the Indians will not be transferred by Congress during it's next session to the Army. The present salary of the office is $3500 per annum, and it is probable Secretary Schurz will recom- mend in his report to Congress that it be increased to 5000

AngOra Goats and Mohair.

Arizona people should not only search for all the natural resources of the Ter ] lritOry, but should try and introduce ev cry iSing which can be grown and turn ed to profit. Among the industries that may be counted on as particularly adapted to Arizona, is the growing oi Angors goats. There is hardly an acre of land in the Territory so destitute oI pasturage and browse that it will not sus tain one or more goats They need but little water and are hardy and do not need the clCse attention that sheep do Between 30,0O0 and 40,000 pounds of mOhair was shorn from goats in Cali. fernia this year. A comparison of views among Angora goat raisers at the California State Fair last month, result cd favorablY to the business It is found that the poorest pastures will suffice for them. A pioneer Tn the business, Mir Landrum, of SaGta Cruz, California, says the "goats live and keep in good condition where sheep and other ami mals have been moved or sacrificed, v and that "all producers of mohair, so far as he has heard, are feeling we'll be- cause they have received prompt re- turns from the shipments they have made to the est"
 The gnats can be made to yield from tour to six and even more pounds each. The Rural Press of San Francisco late y interrogated Mir. Landrum on prices obtained and the prospect for the future demand and learned that he had sold twenty lots to the Farr Alpaca Compa- ny ot Hoiyoke, Mass, and to show the prices clearly, The Press copied bills Of sales of several grades. viz:
 High gr: de lOt-4 lbs. at soc. S3.60; ~ tbs., roc. $1S90; 20 lbs, 5Oc. $10; to- ta!, 30 lbs, $32.5O; average per fb, 65c.

 An English firm had an agent at the California State Fair, looking into the prospects for mobair in that State, and he will open an office in San Francisco for Its purchase. He is examining all the fiocks in the State.
 The successful raising of goats in Ar. izona. will not be questioned, and the proftableness of them may be seen in the figures given. Like many other Op- erations, the making of fortunes out of goats and mohair, cannot be accom- plished in year nor perhaps in five, but they can be so made more quickly than in many other ways followed year in and year out by the people. Then an important point is ft und in the fact that another reliable source for money-makIng in our Territory, can be easily established by the raising of An gora goats.

Trouble i'm EI Psso Co. Texas.

MESILLA, \. NJ, October 6.-To JOHN WAssON: Four hundred armed Mexicans have taken possession of Fl Paso county; imprisoned the county officers; overturned the county govern ment; arrested and exiled prominent citizens; threatened to massacre all Americans. About 300 of the rioters are citizens of Fl Paso county, and balance are from across the rver in Mexico. The mob threaten to levy prestamOs and plunder the merchants. Twenty United States cavalry left here today to protect the Custom House at Fl Paso. The situation is critical Fugitives report a reign of terror The Governor of Texas has been notified
 A. J. FOUNTAIN, Ed. Independent.
 MEsILLA, October 6.-TO EsTEvAN OCHOA: No fighting yet in Fl Paso county. Foster and Ludlow, of Austin, located the salt lakes. Their attorney. Howard, arrested a man for stealing salt from the lakes. The people of San Elizario released the man and con- fined the County Judge and justice of the peace; took Howard from the Sheriff's house and sentenced him toI be shot. He was only saved and re- leased by the strenuous efforts of Padre BOurgade. Howard left here this morning for Fl Paso with d detach- ment of troops The merchants were threatened but no assaults that we know of. J. E. GRIGGs.
 Referring to the above dispatches, we held an interview with Mir P. R. Fully who once resided in Ei Paso, and is quite familiar with the country over that way. He says the whole trouble seems to have grown out of an attempt 10 deprive the people from the free use of salt from the lakes mentioned. They have always with one exception, had ire access to the lakes, and they deem the privilege no less one of right than of necessity. In 1850 or 1851, MT. Fully says MT. Magotfin located a principal lake, and placed men there with a cannon to keep others from getting salt At this time, train was on the way for salt The people collected in force and fight ing ensued. After holding possession a short time, Magoffin abandoned it and ever since it has been open and free to all. The people hold that under the treaty with the United States, they have a right to free access of these lakes as they always had when they belonged to Mexico. This perhaps is true as to the lakes in New Mexico but not likely as to any in Texas-as she acquired her independence before becoming a part of the United States, and Texas reserved absolute control oyer her lands of all sorts. According to the dispatches the present trouble grew out of location of salt lake in Texas, and that State will have to settle the question: of title.
 Mir Fully says Tn this connection, that there is an odd section of coun- try beginning 100 to 15O miles south of Santa Fe and extending southward to Texas between the Organ and Qua dalupe mountains, in which there are several salt lakes and no fresh water except in the mountains or very close up to their bases. This strip of coun- try is from twenty to forty miles wide

They will be lost to view after October, even ID the Washington refractOr, the largest yet mounted. They may be visible again during a few weeks in the Autumn, 1879; but after that it is probable that DO teles- copes will show them until 1892.

THE RUSSIAN DEFEAT.

Tie defeat O. the Russians in two
severely contested battles, mentioned
in our last paper, though it may give
no assurance OF the final triumph Of
tie Turks, involves very grave conse-
ouences to Russia. 1t has obliged the
Gear to alter his whole plan Of cam
paign for this year. Last advices say
that all expectation Of pushing the
Russian forces beyond the Balkans
this season is virtually abandoned.-
Orders have in fact been issued for
their withdrawal from all the ad-
vanced positions they had secured.
One hundred thousand men are want
ed as reinforcements, but it will take
time to bring them up. Meantime
they will have enough to do to sweep
Bulgaria north Of the Balkans clear
Of the Turkish forces. The Turks
are not pressing their advantages, but
are content with strengthening their
defensive works IN the Mountains.
The Turkish victories Of July will
at least have the effect of prolonging
the war for an indefinite period.

BUSINESS BACK. SET.

The most aggravating effect OF the
recent wide-sp. cad disturbance is the
back.set it has given to the general
expectation Of bette. times. What
was intended to promote the interests
of labor has only resulted in swelling
the ranks Of the unemployed with the
rate OF wages as low as before, Man
ufacturing enterprises have been
abandoned or checked. The mechanic
and dealear in merchandise loses in
turn the custom Of the great mass
who, being without work, are unable
to purchase goods. The unemployed
man having only transient or lrregu-
lar occupation finds it barely sufficient
to provide his famil Y with necessary
food and clothing. Such is the stu
alton to thousands and it behooves all
to look the future squarely in the face
and lose no opportunity of preparing
for winter which comes with augment
ed hardships.

IT'S RISE AND FALL.

The great rail road strike is now a
matter of history. The first outbreak
that attracted public attention was at
Martinsburg, Va, on the 10th of Ju-
". What however seemed Il small
matter at first, like cloud no bigger
than a mans hand, continued to in
crease in violence and suddenly ex-
tended to the great Pennsylvania rail
road, eliminating in the terrible
scenes of bloodshed, fire and pillage at
Pittsburg on the memorable 22d OF
July. 1t now became evident that it
was Il preconcerted movement along
all the great trunk lines between the
Atlantic, and the Missouri river, in
GLIDING the N. y. Central on the
north and the B. e. O. r. r. on the
south. The magnitude and sodden-
ness of the outbreak startled the ma
tion. Anarchy and confusion seemed
to be threatened on all sides. The
prompt action of the government at
Washington in forwarding troops
greatly relieved the intense anxiety
of the public mind and gave assur-
ance of the eiiectual subsection of the
turbulent spirit. The riotous manlfes-
tations commenced to decline about
the Goth of July almost as rapidly as
they had sprung into force, and had
almost entirely ceased by the end OF
the month. The great strike will be
very long remembered as d grave ep-
och in our history. The calculation
is that the losses at Pittsburg will not
be less than $lO,O0O,0OO. On the
B. & O. L. r. at least half that sum
will not more than repair the loss
1t is estimated that the total loss by
the strike to all the roads concerned
will not fall short Of twenty-five null.
ions Of dollars.
