this class 1t belongs to parents to pro-

swiftly round; the rich are very likely
to become poor and the poor rich. Sill.

ARIZONA SENTINEL.
SATURDAY, MARCH ?.

By existing laws the president, in his discretion, can retire from active service an officer of the army so soon as he attains the age of sixty-two years, provided there is vacancy in the limited number allowed on the retired list. This power being left to the discretion of the president, each officer arriving at the fatal age seeks, through personal influence, to be retained, and the result is those serving in Wash ington, or having powerful friends at court, stay in the service till death, while those doing the severe campaigning life on the frontier have to go. At this time, while only one officer of the line is eligible for retirement, over thirty of the non- combat ant class are; this, in itself, shows suffi- cient reason why the army should be on the same footing as the navy. Let Con- gress so declare and this species of favor itism, which is so hurtful to the service, will no longer be known.-[Washington Republican.

 Witness-With pleasure, sir. should have done so at first, but the Iearnsd coun- sel seemed rather particular in regard to the language in which he wished me to give evidence.
 As the witness proceeded with his story the attorney sat mopping his brow with his bandanna, and scowling black as q thunder cloud on all in the room.
