PHOENIX.
The COUniy Seat Of Mar
 ic0pa County.
The Opinion 0f Gel. Hinton Regarding This Rapidly Growing Town.

"PhOenix, the county seat of Mar icOpa county, is about two miles north from Salt river, and is the business center of that highly pro- ductive valley. It is also within thirty miles of important mining districts to the east. It was laid off as town in 1868, and now has ten Or more stores, three Touring mills, a good public school, and other ad- vantages. The houses are nearly all constrcuted of adobe, lumber be- ing expensive; the streets are named after Indian tribes and old Spanish explorers they are very wide, and bordered by cottonwood and other trees, which keep green all the year, as in other valleys of southern Ari- zona. It is abundantly supplied from the surrounding country, not only with ordinary agricultural pro- duciions, but with fruit, at prices in general very remunerative to the grower. There is a public library of 25O volumes, owned by literary association. It is sixty miles from Florence, on the stage road from that place to Wickenburg, Ehren- berg, and Prescott. Its population is now about 300, about half Mex ican. The temperature in summer ranges from eighty to one hundred degrees, and in winter from forty to eighty degrees.

 We obtain the following late items from the Las Dos Republics, pub lished at Tucson, q very reliable au- thority on all matters relating to Mexico:
 General Davalos has arrived at Guaymas to take charge of the feder- al forces in Sonora.
 A contract has been entered into with c. Andrede, the representative of the fast line of steamers of the Gulf of California, for service be- tween Mexican ports and Yuma.
 The Mexican Congress has au- thorized the President of that Re public to subsidise the lines of steamers plying between New York and Vera Cruz to the amount of S4,7OO to touch at Frontera and Matamoras.
 The Governor of Sonora has or dered a census of the inhabitant: of that State, which will indicate the number of cities, villages, ham lets, haciendas, etc. The sex, az, and condition of each person, theil profession and education, anC whether they can read and write. 4 bureau of agriculture will also be es tablished.
 Governor Mariscll has at his dis posal S3,OOO of the first thre, months allowance that the Governo General had given orders to tn Custom house to provide to aid il the construction of the telegraph from Mazatlan to Ures. The ma terial is now en route from Nev York, and upon its arrival work vii commence. ST. Rivas, of Durango will nave charge of the constructio of the line. Work will be commence simultaneously at Mazltlan an Ures, but the line will not be e2 tended to the frontier for some tim yet. It is estimated that to con plete the line from Mazatlan to Tu son it will cost ssO,OOO, and if u State government and public spiite individuals do not lend their assis r ance to the enterprise it will be SC erall years before it is completed.

 get crusty and fly into a passion if the printer becomes hard up for a little cash and asks you for what
 you owe him when you don't hap pen to have it in your pocket, but tell him just how you are situated and when you can pay, then be sure and come to time; this will beget mutual confidence between you and the printer and both will be happy.

 By such a change several thousands would be accommodated with a daily mail while the present line ia vors less than a hundred people. By this change Florence, Globe City and Tucson would receive their mails in as good time as is made at present.
 The town of
 GILLETT AND TIP TOP MINING CAMP, Must soon be supplied with a mail and the present tri-weekly line from Prescott by way of Wickenburg to Dos Palmas should be abandoned between the two points last named and should run from Wickenburg to Phoenix, and thence a daily line to Gillett and by way of the Black Canyon Territorial road to Prescott. This would make the actual distance from Yuma to Prescott over the new route proposed, two hundred and eighty-nine miles while. the actual distance from Dos Palmas to Pres colt is two-hundred and ninty-seven miles. Gillctt and the Humbug dis tlict has now a population of about five hundred, and the number is daily increasing. It is therefore plain to be seen that the place
 MUST HAVE A MAIL SUPPLY And it must have it soon.
 To recapitulate the changes pro posed; cut off the tri-weekly be- tween Wickenberg and Dos Palmas an actual distance of 253 miles and put on daily service between Pres colt, via Gillett to Phoenix, a distance of go miles. Cut off the daily service from Stanwix Station by way of Maricopa Wells to Flor ence, a distance of 16O miles, and run the daily mail from Stanwix to Phoenix and Florence, a distance of 163 miles, abandoning the pres ent tri-weekly route from Phoenix to Florence.
 On making such a change the service will be better and quicker because it will be more direct, the interests of all parties will be pro- noted,
 PRESCOTT THE CAPITAL OF ARIZONA Will have a tri-weekly and a daily mail over a better and shorter road.
 Gillett, which must have a mail, will be supplied and there will be a great reduction in the expenses of the present mail routes in the Ter ritory. The saving on the aban- donment of that part of tri-week'y route No. 4O,1O7 between Phoenix and Florence will be S6,4OO and by abandoning that part oi route No. 4O,1O2 between Wicken- berg and Dos Palmas S25, 1000, ac cording to distance and expense under present contracts.

Which Will Make Them Prefer able To Everyone As Regards
 Time and Distance.
Some Facts And Figures Ike gardinE The Much Needed
 Improvements.

A great improvement III 'lihei lOl the mails, and a saving of some thou sands of dollars in the expense of postal service in this Territory could easily be effected by a few important changes from present routes.
 By the present line on route, No. 4O1O2, from Prescott to Dos Palmas, the distance is two hundred and six ty miles according to the schedule of the service as published by the Post Office Department. A great portion of this route is over heavy sandy road and across arid deserts with
 LONG DISTANCES BETWEEN WATER for either men or beasts. When service began on this route Dos Palmas was the terminus of the rail road pointing toward this Territory and also the point for the discharge of all freight bound to Arizona. Now with the terminus of the rail road within our borders, at Yuma, Dos Palmas has lost most of her importance as a commercial point and is virtually only mail station on the railroad. The route as be- fore stated, is over sterile desert country especially that part it be- tween Wickenburg and Dos Palmas and as nearly all freight and mails for Arizona are now delivered at Yuma, it would be great advantage
 TO THE BUSINESS MEN
 In all our principal towns to have the mail routes radiate to all such towns from Yuma
 Such change would throw all the mails and freights on the line of the telegraph and so our mail con tractors, merchants and others could be always in possession acknowledge as to the whereabouts of mails or freights, a matter of great impor- tance not only to the class named, but to every citizen.
 The Southern Pacific mail line from Yuma to Fort Worth, by way of Stanwix, Maricopa Wells and Florence in this Territory and Mes silla in New Mexico, is, between Stanwix and Florence, over a long stretch of arid sand with many miles between watering stations and part of it ought to be abandoned By dropping off that portion of it be tween the two points above named (Stanwix and Florence via Marico pa Wells a
 GREAT SAVING WOULD ACCRUE To the PostalService. To do this i would only be necessary to run tn, mail from Stanwix to Phoenix ovel the new Territorial road which run, up the Salt River Valley over |; good road bed and with water il abundance at intervals of but few miles, and thence to Florence owe the route now occupied by No. 40 1O7; thus saving to the Cover: ment sixty miles of tri-weekly ser vice on the above named route

RUSSLiN NAVAL PREPARATIONS.

We published, yesterday, what must be re-
gardcd as the first official explanation of the
new naval policy of the Russian Government.
Captain SemetSchbin is as frank and out
spoken as the jollicst tar in the Marryat
library. Scarcely had he landed on our island
before he encountered our Inquisityc reporter
and unbosomed himself with extreme nom
chalance. He seemed to have nothing to con-
ceal. He announced that the Cimbria was
under his orders and that an expedition was
to bc organized on this coast. lie
had agents in various quarters, and
intended TO purchase fast sailing vessels and
supplies. His Government was preparing,
If need be- to attack England on the seas.
A squadron would soon leave the Baltic
for these waters, but no letters of
marque would be issued and no pri-
watering would be carried on under
the Russian flag. These vessels would be
cruisers under strict naval discipline and the
prizes which might be captured would revert
TO the home Government He had made
careful study of international law,
and was confident that in purchasing
arms and stores in time of peace
he would not violate any principles
of neutrality. If war should be declared the
Cimbria and her cOnsoTts would weigh anchor
and cease to trouble this country.
This is plain talk, and in some respects
good sense. It is clear that Russia can derive
as much benefit from cruisers manned and
commissioned in accord with international law
rs from privateers sailing under letters of
marque, issued in defiance of the Declara-
ton of Paris. We learn by the European
mail that the Society for the Promotion of
Russian Maritime Commerce, whose headquar-
ters are at Moscow, has favored the same prin-
ciples which Captain Semctschkin sets forth.
Two eminent authorities on international
law were consulted by the society, and
the views of the professors were iden-
tical on this question. Privateering, they
held. must hot be thought of; first because
1t was illegal secondly. because all that was
formerly done by prvateers could now
be done quite as well by cruisers
owned by the Government and commanded
by officers holding Government commissions.
Professor Bluntschli and Professor Martens
New-York tribune., 1878-05-11

assume that on sea as well as on land com
mission from Government marks the distinc-
ton between regular and irregular warfare
and that the commander of duly commls-
stoned cruiser, which may or may not
form part of an Admiral's fleet, is neither
a privateersman nor pirate i"e
Pail Mall Gazette is evidently somewhat nm
pressed with the argument for it goes so lar
as to ask what there is to prevent Russia from
buying any number of vessels in the United
States and granting commissions to Ameri-
cans who will consent to enter her naval SER
vice.
Americans however, have no need to be
drawn into arguments over the distinction De-
tween cruiser and privateer. Our neutrality
laws are plain. They are not, as Captain Sc
metschkin assumes, suspendedin time OF peace.
They are always in force Russia can buy
her ships here or in German ports, but she
cannot arm, equip and fit them out in our
waters when there is reasonable ground to
"believe that they are intended to cruise or
"to carry on war against Power with
(which the United States Government is at
"peace.' The pledges made In the treaty
of Washington must not be strained, much
less violated.

THE DEulGOGUIS or 1UO CIPIIALS.


In the House Of Representatives, at Wash
ington, on Thursday. the Hon. ). :. Cox vas
engaged in his great mission of maintaining
and defending the rights of the worl.ingmcn.
1t was one of the occasions he is so happy at
scizing for posing before the unemployed as
their sympathizng friendand the worklngmen as
their champion. The present opportunity was
upon the passage of the joint resolution pro-
yIding for the enforcement Of the eight hour
law BY cutting off one-hlth OF the hours of
labor, he said, provision would be made for the
employment of One-iilth more laborers; and in
the pathetic tone and manner so common to
his class of statesmen, he added that there
never was time when 1T was more ncces-
sary that Congress should do something
for the good of the wOrkngmen than at
present To men who think but little, and
that little very loosely, this may seem to be
a kindness to the wOrkingman, and Mr.. Cox
seem IA real benefactOr. 1t looks to them as
though Mr.. Cox was making n great effort to
promote the welfare of workingmen by Sc
curing a general reduction Of the hours of
labor. But is that the effectl Mr.. Cox, what
ever he may say about it, knows that it is
not for he is much too intelligent person to
suppose for an instant that legislation of
that sort can affect the market price of
labor, which is regulated, as he well knows,
by the inexorable law Of supply and demand.
He knows, of course, that his legislation will
have no more effect upon the market for labor
than law fixing the price to be paid for
butter and eggs at the White House would
have upon the general produce market. In
the latter case certain marketmen would he
specially favored; in the former, limited

literature. That Mr.. Wood by this Tariff bin would
create q monster of which he knows little and whose
movements he could not possibly control, is far
within the truth. But il cannot be said that he is
such monster himself the House Of Representa-
tiycs. from present Indications seems quite compe-
tent to control both Mr.. Wood and his bill.
