The Mormons at the bridge, on the east side, have been saving what they can of their crops by using a flat boat.

 OILY A RUM0R.-Some soldiers from somewhere wro'e to soldier at Whipple, that the Department Headquarters at Whipple was to be broke up and Gen. Wilcox sent b Santa Fe, New Mexico, to take command of that department, and that Arizona was to be annexed to New Mexico. It is an unfounded rumor. Arizona needs moro troops, and commander right here on the ground, and it is not at all likely that the government is going to entertain, for moment, such suicidal move as to leave this Territory, which at the tip of straw could be thrown into revolution, with out close observing Commander to keep down riot, and plunder. Withdraw the pro- tection we ought to have and Sonora would annex Arizona, and we don't want to belong to Mexico.

 ment, for robbipg the U. s. mails, escaped
 from the guard-house at Whipple, on the n,eht of the 18th inst. stole Mir Hudson horse. and took fhe direction South IS once more in durauce vile and ready tobe returned.
 The Deputy Sheriff of Maricopa county, Joe
 Phy. received notice of the escape, through
 Marshal Dake who offered a reward oi $500. and immediately put himself on
 watch for the hero seeking liberty m the direction of the borders of Mexico Mr. Hudson. from whom Berry stole the valiia- bIe horse, is in Phenix. and will, with the assistance of good guard, conduct Berry back to Prescott; and Mr. Phy, who has been yigilant in watching for and captur- inc the fugitive from justice, will receive the reward. Marshal Dake has done well in procuring a promise from the Depart meat of a sufficient sum 10 induce the au- thorjties to capture these outlaws. Vance is still at large. but the officers of the law in every direction are on the alert and may catch the bird on the wing. It IS surpri- sing what enticements Sonora presents to every desperado, murderer, lover or fhlei that have occasion to run away. 1t might be A judicious move on the part of the U. s. Government to annex about three or four of the Northern States of Mexico, for the purpose of affording shelter to all Arizona outlaws. Mexico will soon object to being overridden with people belonging to the United States whose hands are fresh stained with the blood of their fellow man, or whose acts upon the public highway has made it quite necessary to oeyade the officers of American courts Even absconding lov- CTS are drawn by SoBora's magnet, and they, too, want to go there to bask in the shades of the olive and lemon groves.

AUSTRIAN FINANCES-~DEPLoRABL CONDITION.
WASHINGTON, October Am interesting
and instructive communication has Just
been received by the Treasury Department
from the Consu-f1eneral at Vienna, in
which complaint is made in behalf OF Aus
trian merchants and exporters that, owing
to deprecated money in Use i'll the AuStro-
Hungarian Empire, they are practically eN-
Guided from participation in the commerce
OF the world. They earnestly request that
the United States, in valuln@ the silver
form, should measure it by the gold stand
ard-or, in other words, at its intrinsic or
bullion vaue-in>tead OF lesal-tender value,
the difference between the two ranging from
10 to Is per cent, which gives al ovcr.valu-
alton to that extent on goods upon
which duties are imposed. The difficulty
with which the United States Government
has to contend is that it now has by
law gold standard and silver standard,
and il the gold standard OF ono country is
10 be measured by gold it would appear but
fair that the silver standard OF another
country should be measured by silver; but
international exchanges being everywhere
conducted on the gold basis, such rule OF
valuation would undoubtedly prove abor-
tive. 1t appears, also, that Austria has re-
Gently enacted Il tariff law requiring all
duties to be paid in gold. To add to the
confusion to which Austria is subjected, it
appears that legally and practically the bust
ness of that Empire is conducted with Il
paper currency, aud having no reference TO
either silver or gold. referring to this
state OF currency. OF what might be termed
" fiat money!" the Consu!-General says in
bis dispatch:
cit IS not silver, it is not gold, nor is it
promise to receive as equivalent 10 silver or
gold 1t is a paper form, legal tender for
all debts except debts which, by express
law, or express agreement, are payable III
coin; but there Is no provision whatever
for eyeu its eventual redemption. The
value of this State money is derived wholly
from its legaI-lender character, but must
greatly depreciate when the new Austrian
tariff laws go into effect. which not only
exclude State or fiat money, but also The
silver form, the latter being received only
at its gold value.
1.-THE grave difficulties which have proven
so INJURIOUS to Austrian commerce are due
chiefly to the efforts to float silver currency,
in the face OF the notorious depreciation OF
silver. and the issue of State or fiat money,
not redeemable in gold or silver, or any
thing else"
