A Novel Horse Suit.

Los Angeles, Cal, as we learn from the Express, has had a novel lawsuit. It came before justices court of that city, and was to this effect: A had a sick horse, which was in great suffer ing, and which he thought was sure to die. So he took the horse to B, a liv- cry stable keeper, and said, "I will give you 8 to kill this horse for me-" {" All right" said B. So X paid the 8, left the horse in charge of B, and went away. B could not, however, sum- mon sufficient nerve to kill the poor animal, so, in his turn B said to c, If you will kill thls horse for me l will give you S5." All right" said c, and c took the horse away with him. c, however, diG not kill the horse. but doctored him and restored him to health. A, much to his surprise, one day saw c driving fine animal which A unmistakably recognized as his for merly sick horse. A demanded the horse from c, c refused to give it up, and A brought suit against c to recOv- CT possession of the horse. The jury decided that c was entitled to the horse The Express understands that the case will be appealed to the Coun- ty Court.

The Farming Interest.

It is a remarkable proof of the i'm portance of the farming class in our economy that all estimates of national prosperity and misfortune are based on it. We are told the country is be- ginning to revive after the long pros tration that occurred in September, 1873, and as proof, we are pointed to the crops of the present year. These crops are the burden of all cheerful predictions, the inspirations of all hope ful enterprises. The bankers of New York assure the country of better times because it has produced bounliful crop; the national credit improves steadily for the same reason; we are told that we can resume specie pay ment in 1879 without difficulty, because we have crop that will command all the gold that resumption calls for; and merchants, real-estate dealers, manufac- turers and all other classes whose well fare depends on the general prosperity predict an improvement in business be- cause the land is full of grain, hay, cot ton, sugar and rice.
 These predictions and estimates are reasonable, and they show what are the foundations of our prosperity. Stacks of unstable pig-iron and mountains of unstable coal in Pennsylvania and gluts of manufactures in Massachusetts are signs of suffering rather than of comfort, for they tell of over- -produc- ton, diminished consumption, paralyz- Cd industry and idle and hungry peo- pie. But stacks of harvested crops have a different signification; they mean wealth, business, employment prosper ity and comfort.
 There is lesson Tn this which ought to be needed. Our prosperity rests on the shoulders of the farmer If he sui fers, his bangs will sooner or later run through the whole country. An unjust burden imposed on him is a strain on the very props of society. Statesmen, publicists, financiers. economists and reformers forget the silent and patient tiller of the soil in their espOusal of the claims of more clamOrous and demon stIative classes; but it is always at the peril of the country. We have inter- minable discussions about manutactO- ries, mining, banking and railroading, and laws after laws enacted for the ben eft of these interests with nothing ever done and little dreamed of for the ben eft of that great agricultural interest on winch all others rest; and yet il is the product of the farmers labor that maintains sea-bOard cities, makes five sixths of our commerce, sustains manu- factures and gives employment to rail roads. Farmers do not ask for special favors, but enlightened statesmanship demands, at least, their exemption from the effect of special favors 10 other classes. If the government will not protect them, let it, at any rate, cease tO protect other classes at their expense. St Louis Republican.

Money at seven Per Cent.

Within the past week, the Hibernia Bank has renewed its S1,OOO0OO loan on the Palace Hotel property for one year at eight per cent This was orig inally made in September, 1874, to Messrs. Ralston and Sharon, for three years, at seven per cent. per annum. The Hibernia Bank yesterday an- nounced that it would entertain propo- sitions for loans of $3O,000 and up- wards to the extent of its surplus at seven per cent per annum on real es- tate security. Two months ago this bank had S700,000 in coin on hand, and it has probably as much now. It has recently been lOaning at eight per cent. in sums of S10,000 and upwards. First class mercantile paper is readily discounted at nine per cent. Term loans at seven per cent. ought to stim- ulate local Improvements Bulletin, Sept. 9.

Unlawful Utan Divorees.

SALT LAKE, September 25.-The re- port of the grand jury shows that 404 cases were determined by the Salt Lake County Probate Court during the last twelve months and that nearly the whole of these illicit divorces were ob- tained by parties not residing within the Territory. The examination by the grand jury's committee will devel- ope the fact that members of the Salt Lake Bar were engaged in the prac- uce. It will also show that Elias Smith, probate judge, as an attorney in these cases, has been practicing in his own court, and that his clerk and deputy clerk have likewise been en- gagged In the illegal divorce business. Divorces are shown to have been pro cured by plaintiffs who reside abroad, by simply filing a complaint setting forth the cause of action, accompanied by an affidavit that the one bringing suit desires to become a resident of Utah. The customary summons to de requiring him or her to an swer within ten days, IS then issued and mailed to such pOstoffice address as the complainant has, by private note, designated. At the expiration of the ten days a decree is granted. IT. cases, the flies examined by the committee show that divOrces have been granted within two days after fil- ing the complaint, and several decrees are entered upon the record on the same day of filing the complaint.

 On the 22d arrived by boat from Aubrey seven bars of silver bullion worth S12,OOO
 The PccahOntas mine in the Castle Dome district has been sold to w. H. Baxter of San Francisco.
 Freight for the new 2ostamp Me Cracken mill comprised some 1S5 tons of material, all of which has gone for ward except some twenty tons still at Colorado Station.
 \ new pOstoffice is about to be es- tablished at Putnam's ranch at River side, in Pinal county. This will be a great convenience to settlers on the Gila above Florence and to the miners about Mineral creek and vicinity.
 Globe City is entitled to better mail accommodations. The northeastern part of Pinal coulty is fast filling up with raRchmen and miners, all of whom get their mail at Globe. At present they get mails but once a week, which is not nearly enough.
 McMillanville, in Globe district, is getting to be quite town. J. A. Mil Ter & Co have a fine stock of goods there in charge of C. T. Martin, and are putting up fine new store.
 Rich ore from the Rosario miHc, near the Mexican line south of Teamster's Camp, in this county, was shipped to San Francisco this week by L. A. Smith. Horn silver appears all through the ore and there is every reason to ex- pect big returns from the shipment
 Col. J. D. Graham goes forward to Pima county, today, to arrange for the erection of a mill on the property of the Aztec mining company, on the Sonoita. He is an old and frequent visitor of the Territory, and made To- cations in the Santa Rita country years ago, when the Indians made it impos- sible to hold them.
 J. W. Fender, of the Risdon Iron Works, in charge of sixteen mechanics, left the railroad Thursday at Agua Ca hente on his way to Mohave county. They go to put up the new ten-stamp mill at the Blackberry mine, which will be turned over in complete run ming order at the total cost of $95, 900.
 The railroad bridge IS virtually fin ished today, except the laying down upon 1t of the rails. The latter can be done in few hours time and the cars can be run over to the Arizona bank inside of half a day from any given hour The immense structure, lS7 feet long, moved smoothly and ac- curately. By this time well heeled agents of the railroad company have probably seen somebody at Washing ton, and we can expect to soon hear of the Secretary of Wars order being re- scinded.
 Cavaness' and Fields trains came in this week with 46,000 pounds of con- centrations from the Silver King mine. David Neabr has this week forwarded 5000 pounds freight to Florence by Brash's train; 22,500 pounds to Globe by J. Contreras; 10000 pounds to Phe nix by A.

A Grand old Poem.

Who shall judge man by his manners9
 Who shall know him by his dress? Paupers may be fit for princes,
 Princes fit for something less; Crumpled shirt and dirty Jacket
 May beclothe the golden ore or the deepest thoughts and feelings,
 That to honor upward soar. There are springs Of crystal nectar
 Ever yelling out of stone; There ars purple buds and golden,
 Hidden, crushed and overgrOwn. God, who counts by souls, not dresses, Loves and prospers you and me, While he values thrones, the highest,
 But as pebbles of the sea. Man upratsed above his fellows,
 Oft forgets his fellows then; Masters, rulers, lords, remember
 That's your meanest kind Of men; Men by labor, men by feeling,
 Men by thought and men by fame, Claiming equal rights to sunshine.
 In a mans ennotling name. There are foam-embroidered oceans,
 There are little weed clad rills, There are feeble inch-high sapllngs,
 There are cedars on the hills. God, who counts by souls, not stations, Loves and prospers you and me, For 10 him all vain distlnctions
 Are as pebbles in the sea.
