Judge Tweed is a thorough lawyer, strictly honest and partles having business in any of the Courts will do we'll to employ him.
 Hons. Charles D. Poston, Register of the Land Office. at Florence, and John Wasson, Surveyor General of the Territory of Ari- zona, are exercising their talents, which are of no mean order, in trying to prove to the readers of the Florence Citizen and Tucson Star. that they, P. and w., are both black guards.
 They and the land which forms the sub .ect matter of tine controversy are too far away for us to understand the merits of the case, consequently count us out of the fight.
 X great many people display strong disposition to grumble, even when there IS little reason to do so, and thus make themselves and everybody else miserable. Now, if you can't get on without grumbling. sit still and keep still. Don't interfere with the good fortune of other people because YOU oo not deserve any yourself. You should not probably be contented if you had everything, and so you are left to see how much snksppiness you can get out of nothing.
