A World of Girls and Birds.

Said the boy, "rll climb that tr'e
And bring down nest | know
Quoth the girl, Il will not see
Little birds defrauded So
Cowardly their nests to take
And their little hearts to break
And their little eggs to steal
Leave them happy for my sake
Surely little birds can feel
And the little robin-bird
Nice brown back and crimson breast
All the conversation heard,
Sitting trembling in his nest.
"What a world,' he cried, "of bliss,
Full Of birds and girls were this !
Blithe we'd answer to their call,
But great mistake it is
BOYS we're ever made at ALL"

Train up u Child in the Way He
Should Go.

There were many ideas entertained by
the Puritan settlers Of New England that
happily were not bequeathed to those.who
came after them, but in fixing proper re-
lations between parents and children, and
in parental government generally,it would
have been better to have preserved some
of the infexibility of discipline that dis
tinguished them. The youth of the pres
ent have their own ways too much. No
obedience or respect is exacted from them
by father or mother in many instances,
and they grow up selfish, overbearing and
sometimes dangerous.
The case of the boy in Maine who a
year or so ago killed his father because
he was angry with him is probably IA
miliar to all. The other day father in
New York was obliged to complain of
his son on account of the boys repeated
thefts. When the youth had been SEN
fenced he turned to his father and told him
that as soon as he got out of Jail he would
"blow the top of his head off" A few
days since young man in high station
in Brooklyn tried to murder his wife.
He was neither intoxicated nor insane.
The only trouble was that he had always
been permitted to have his own way, and
the groove of sel6shness and petty tyran-
ny to which he had been allowed to shape
himself led but in one direction, and he
considered any means-cven shot-guns
and Observation-Disclosures in reveng-
ing himself upon those who opposed in
the slightest his wishes or course of life.
Children need checks, direction and
good influences. A well-governed child
is in the grand majority Of cases sure to
grow into respectable man or woman,
but the noblest natures may be blighted
unless the weeds of unframed propensity
are kept down.

THE phonograph, which opens up an
entirely new vista in the field of science,
is now an established success, and al
ready multitudinous means of applica-
ton to the practical uses of life are be-
ing suggested. Prof. Arnold, of the
University Of the City Of New York, in
his lecture at Chickering Hall last week,
gave description Of the celebrated talk
ing machine constructed by Prof Faber,
Of Vienna, which was simply repro
duction of the natural organs-thc ma
chine having a throat, an ndia.rubber
tongue and lips, which had to be changed
to suit different classes of sounds, and
all the vocal organs as near Gs possible.
The phonograph is constructed upon en-
tirely different principles, and is far sim
pier and more available. One of its
singularities is that the speed with which
the apparatus is turned determines the
pitch of the voice. If turned very slow
ly soprano voice becomes deep bass;
if very fast the bass vibrations are printed
very near together and, reproduced, gives
US piping treble. Therefore, to obtain
a uniformity of speed the employment Of
clock-work has been suggested. What
an invention for lovers! Now the un-
consciously prophetic words, "Thou art
so near and yet SO far" may be practical
ly verified. Would it not he we'll, also,
for married lovers to record their court
ship and honeymoon prattle for future
referencel No need of being any longer
afraid OF burglars; one may fire off a
gun at the phonograph, and in the dead
hour of night that useful machine would
"fre off, at the burglars. Also it intro
duces new material for intrigue, more
striking and available than forgery or
ventrioquism or any Of the threadbare
agents used by novelists heretofore.-

Southern Pacifc Hallway Afurs.

At the election held at Yuma last Saturday 10 fill the vacancy made by the death of President and Director D. D. Colton, Charles F. CrOcker was chosen President, and David Neahr director. This we presume leaves Mir. Tyng as a fixture in the directory. There were present at the meeting, c. F. Crocker, EX-Gov \. P. K. Stafford and George Tyng-Mr Neahr being yet unable to attend to any business.
 There were at the time of the meet ing, ties at Yuma for over twenty miles of road and also a large quantity of railway iron and more of both coming forward. The first construction party under the very energetic superintend eut of construction, NIT. Harris, was due al Yuma last Monday IL will, perhaps, take little time to get the construction force and material SO or. ganized and distributed as to push for. ward at rapid speed, and in five or six weeks from date, passengers and freight for this section will be received and discharged at Gila City and very like ly this side.
 The public hereaway can rest as sured that the distance between them and the railway, will be constantly shortened till all is removed. Fares and freights will be greatly reduced and time in greater proportion. In stead of seventy-two hours to Yuma, the passengers will go in fifteen, and instead of freights being twenty to fifty days, they will be one or two. Perishable but very useful articles, es- pecially of food, which now cannot be brought here, will then be plentiful and cheap New industries will be stimulated and old ones encouraged and enlarged. A new phase will be given to life and life'S affairs in gener- al. Even this part of Arizona will not much longer be regarded out of the way. Dangers and hardships of lrav- el will about cease, and generally pro- lection to life and property be much nearer perfect.

Another Biq Sale.

The Flood and Kirkpatrick mines in the Gro Blanco district, have been sold 10 a company in Philadelphia for S75.O0O and the money paid. This property, consisting of the Alaska, Wyoming, Idaho, Montana, Mary Ann, Dacota and Warsaw mines, was bonded July 3 to John Haskell of San Fran cisco, and he turned over the bond to Dr. H. R. Allen, who consummated the sale. These mines are probably the best opened of any in Southern Arizo- na, and each one shows large bodies oi good ore. The new company is report ed to be a very wealthy one and are soon to commence extensive operations and bring into prominence the Orc Blanco district, which has long had a good reputation with but little devel- opment.
 We are glad to chronicle this sue cess of the Flood and Kirkpatrick company, for they have worked hard, intelligently and honestly to show the value of their property and have dis posed of it on its merits entirely.

From Sonora.

Mir. c. T. Cutler in company with Mir. L. Jackson came in from Oposu ra, Sonora, on Thursday afternoon having made a ride of 2S0 rniles on horseback in four days. We learn from Mr. Cutler that several important mining operations will soon be com menced in the vicinity of Oposura sustained by private capital from San Francisco. Some old mining proper. ties that have remained untouched for from one hundred to two hundred years, will be reopened and made to disgorge their millions of hidden treas ure. Mir Cutler also says that the Apaches are still committing some de predations in Sonora. Three Mex jeans from Oposura were killed by the Indians on the 18th ultimo. They had gone out to escort a priest into the town and were killed on the road.

Gold Mines in las Dos cabezds.

We have frequently heard reports of
 gold having been found in the Dos Cabezas mountains, both in lodges and placers, but with one exception we
 believe these discoveries have not prov ed profitable. This exception is the quartz gold mine now owned and work ed by Messrs. Casy & McGrader, and which, according 10 our present infor- nation, is an exceedingly valuable prop erty. This ledge is said to be from ten to twelve feet Tn width and the ore averages $10G per ton-at least the owners have obtained this result from working the rock in arrastras. Yes terday we saw at L. Zeckendorf's store thirty-six ounces of bullion from this mine, which has an exceedingly tempt ing look. The shaft is now down twenty-five feet and the ore is improv- ing all the time. The bullion at Mir Zeckendorfs store is the second ship ment made from the Casy & McGrader mine. There is no doubt but that a very rich and extensive mine will be developed fIom this ledge, and as it is only two years since miners could safe ly prospect the Dos Cabezas moun- tains, we may hope to hear of the dis covcry of other valuable claims in that section.

ATVacd Mines.
TrcsnN. October 27. 1878.

TUCSON, October 2f. ISio.
 EDITOR CrTIZEN:-I have just come in from the Arivaca District. which may now be regarded as a blaze The managers of the several mining com, panies are pushing the development of their respective properties as rapidly as the situation will allow. This au. gurs well for our future, especially as several fine bodies have been uncovered within the last ten days The Cerro Colorado shaft has been pumped out, and rich ore struck in the bottom, also in the lower levels The main shaft of Consolidated Ar. izona was down sixty-tive feet, and bottom in good ore. Two shifts were sinking, and Mir. Holden had about ten tons of selected ore corded on the dump, which will average over S20O per ton. The dump itself, is worth al least S15,000 The Arivaca Mill Com pany are pushing the mill work along. If they meet with no backsets, the mill will be in operation by the last of December next. Then our bullion shipments will prove the richness of the ore-bodies of the district.
 The voters of the district are fully alive to the merits of the several can didates for election. Some are going in for Davis, others for Campbell, but the great majority will support H. s. Stevens-Pima's candidatel McC.

THE last Sentinel has the following local:
 We this week reprint from the San Francisco Stock Report a very good letter from Pinal county, which is un. usually accurate in its statements.
 We admire the taste of the Sentinel editor, but wonder little that he did not see the merits of this unusually accurate letter when it was first pub. lished in THE CITIZEN on October 5 The Stock Report correspondent stole nearly the whole of his letter form our columns-but then it sounds so much better coming from abroad. We are consoled by the fact that our matter is generally worth stealing.
Arizona citizen., 1878-11-02

THE way in which the last Sentinel shows up the description of the Tip Top mine made by an Enterprise cor. respondent, is but another illustration of what an ass man not thoroughly posted on mining can make of himself when he gets beyond glittering gener- alities. IL takes experience and clear head to accurately detail the working and results of a mine, yet about every man that ever looked down a shaft thinks he knows all about it. General descriptions mean but little, inaccu- rate details are deceptive and ninety nine times out of hundred grossly exaggerated, and many mining men are not anxious to have their affairs made too public.

Nice Boys.

Politics up in Nevada are getting in- teresting ana editors are having live ly time. Our sprightly friends of the Reno Gazette and the Reese River Re veille are enjoying themselves amazing ly in particular. Alexander, of the former paper, calls Fred Hart, editor of the latter and President of the Sazerac Lying Club, ga vain fly on the wheel of Republicanism," and Fred retorts by calling Aleck, "spider- shanked Aleck, or the pimple-headed bean pole of the Truckee." We always knew that those highly moral young men would peaceably live together in the journalistic field of the Silver State.

The Election.

Next Tuesday will decide the ques- ton as to who will hold local office in Arizona for the coming two years. The canvass has been unusually active and exciting, and each candidate can rest new feeling that he has worked hard for success and that if defeat comes to him, he has done all possible to prevent it. There has been perhaps too much hard-feeling and too much bitterness exhibited by some of the candidates and their friends, but while this must be regretted, it can scarcely be avoided. Yet we can not see why two men, always friendly, would deem themselves personal and vindictive en- emies because they aspire to hold the same office. The right to run for office is one which every man possess. es equally with his fellows and we deem it unwise, therefore, for any can didate to consider a vote against him self as personal atirOnt
 The vote of Pima County will be very much greater than ever before, the number of names registered being about 2,O00, and but for the years res idence clause of the Election law would doubtless be increased at least one-half
 Every one entitled to vote should certainly do so, and, moreover, all good citizens should strive in every possibly way to prevent anything like single fraudulent vote being cast. To strive illegitimately to influence voter is a crime well deserving and should re- ceive severe punishment

How Kind.

The Los Angeles Republican hurls it to a gaping world that it intends to support Col. John D. Graham, the great organizer of the Aztec and Toltec mines" for first Senator from Arizona. We are awful glad. It is hard 10 tell how much we have been worried over who the fortunate man will 0e 10 make his bow in the majestic circle of sen ators as the first offering of the con- ing State-coming any time within twenty-five years but certainly not with in ten. But now we are al rest; there IS no use of any one else trying while the Republican thunders away.
 While in swaddling clothes Arizona has ever been so meek and shown such a want of power to look out for herself that it is kind for some great giant to thus chaperone her into good society.
 What the dickens is the Los Angeles Republican and where does this Gra- ham live, anyhow?
