The Rev. B. F. Leipsner, of Red Bank,
delivered his lecture on s'The Smiles and
Tears of Lincoln's Life," before the Philo-
sophian Society, on Wednesday evening the
25th of February. The evening was SO de-
cidedly stormy that it seemed hardly proba-
BILE that many would venture out. But the
lecturer had a very good audience, as far as
numbers were concerned, and an appreci-
ative one judging from the attention given.
The lecture abounded in good things, show

THE CITIZEN did not favor the cleo ton of J. G.

As such he is entitled to the support of the people generally if he serves their common interests We have been watching closely for evidence that he IS the peoples Delegate, and not that Of any party or section, and have now some before us in a private letter from Gov. Stafford, which we take the liberty of publishing, as follows:

The LeddVIiie Bubble.

The New York Daily Indicator, one
 of the most reliable mining and stock journals in the country, in its issue of
 April 29, contains the following: "The mines at Leadville seem to be in a
 state of anarchy. The town and the surrounding country are in the hands of speculators, who are in league with the railroads which own about nine
 tenths of Kansas and Colorado, and
 who have advertised the mines to ln- duce immigration, so that the specu-
 latOrs might sell their lots and wild eat stocks. The immigrants thus vic timiZed have become desperate, and are seizing mines indiscriminately. The mines of Field, Letter & Co.
 Farwell and others, have been taken
 possession of by these enraged miners,
 who will not allow any body to ap- proach them. Letters mine is guard
 ed by fifteen men armed with Spencer rifles, who threaten to shoot him if he approaches within miles of the place. and will not allow a pound of ore to be taken away. Law suits are pend ing about rivals claims which cannot possibly be settled for years. The miners claim that all Leadville mines contain only pockets or deposits, and that, therefore, they need not respect another's claim, but can sink a shaft adjoining it on the same property
 The owners claim that they have veins and can pre-empt 3O0xl500 feet but the miners have practically taken the law into their own hands,"

Speci- men No. 1 wrought from, length II 5-l6 inches, was elongated to 12 9-16 inches and broke only at a strain equal to g, ,S36 pounds to the square inch. Specimen No. ?, length 103f inches. elongated to 1918 inches, broke at a pressure of G1.SS0 pounds, equal to the best iron made at the present day. Another specimen was reduced Ii inch and elongated from 9 10 91$ inches. and broke at a strain of 60,0S0 pounds. The bolts were placed in the bridge when it was built, sixty years ago. The tests were made by MT. Wendell Bollman at his works.-T Baltimore Gazette, April II.

The Q Territorial ExposItor.

Our new contemporary with tho above name has reached us, but strange to say a fuH week after it's publica tion. Its appearance gives promise oi a welcome addition to territorial jour jalism. There is an abundance of news, and a large amount of miscel. laneous matter.
 We observe the following features
 It is to be Democratic, but without |" low vulgar abuse" or a personal vituperation; and it will, doubtless claim to be the organ of its pgrty in the Territory.
 It is pronounced in its advocacy of fhe new California constitution, and upholds the methods used for its adop- ton, cOndemning the opposition as thoroughly corrupt and venal.
 It opposes the expenditure of $40 600 for new county buildings in Mari copa county, on the ground that the saddling of so great a debt on the people will be needless and ruinous.
 And it invites the immigration of Utah Mormons, and believes they will not practice polygamy here.

occgp,ed LO5d Not Ava,ia6Ie for Pre-
 smphon or Homestead Settlers.

Last Ocobter II Secretary Schurz rendered an opinion in a pre-emption case in which he used this language
 am not of the opinion that a tract in the actual possession of another, which has been enclosed and occupied and cultivated by him for years, and upon which valuable improvements have been placed by such occupant, is subject to appropriation by another, even though the occupant may have no legal claim to the same under the provisions of the statute.
 In the recent case of Atherton ct al. vs. Fowler ct al., decided by the Su- preme Court at its last term, the court say: "The generosity by which Con- gress gave the settler the right of pre- emption was not intended to give him the benefit of another mans labor, and authorize him to turn that man and his family out of their home. It did not propose to give its bounty to settle ments obtained by violence at the eX- pense of others. The right to make a settlement was to be exercised on un- settled land. To make improvements on unimproved land. To erect a dwelling house did moi mean to seize some other mans dwelling. It had reference to vacant land, to unim- proved land, and it would have shocked the moral sense of the men who passed these laws if they had supposed they had extended an invita- tiOn to the pioneer population to ac- quire inchoate rights to the public lands by trespass, by violence, by rob bery; by acts leading to homicides and other crimes of less moral turpi- tude.

Railroad Arrangements.

The conferences held between tbe city magnates and Col. Gray. repre- senting the Railroad Company. have been of the most harmonious cbarac. ter. The company has expressed its desire to fully accommodate the i'm terests of Tucson by locating its sta ton within the city limits and as near the business center as may be. On the other hand the council have willingly conceded every thing asked for. and are taking active measures to secure to the company its right of way and room for all its Improvements.
 Tomorrow afternoon the next sten will be taken, and it will be seen how much the city will have to pay for having the railroad conveniently sit uated.

WHAT is known as the Grand Canal Company, in Maricopa County, has moved quietly along in the work of digging an eighteen thousand dollar ditch, leading from a point on Salt River, mile and a half above Hay den's Ferry, seventeen miles in the di- rection of Aqua Fria and carrying about 30,0O0 miners inches of water. It is estimated that fully 10000 acres of good land will be rendered worth from five to ten dollars an acre as soon as water is turned into the ditch. The company is composed of Messrs. Rum berg, Hancock, Isaac and Lutgerding. They have been at work only about year, and they deserve the reputation they have as the most plucky and en- terprising citizens of their county.

Suggestions for Mining Companies.
TUcsoN. May fl. 1879.

TUCsoS, May 14, 1879.
 EDITOR CITIZEN: The journals oi the day which make mines and mining
 news a speciality frequently give ad
 vice to people who may have under
 consideration the investment of mEney in mining property. I think it is all good, and perhaps what I shall sug gest has been before dwelt upon by those papers. But there are a few things which should especially like to have people keep in mind when they are contemplating investment here. In entering upon the business of mining here parties should never forget that they must in the beginning make liberal outlay. There are prac- tically no mills to work up custom ores, and, if there were, it would be a rare case where the expenses of " going down Y" would be made by the mine, from the top. A mining location is scarcely known to have a value, as a rule, unless the vein is found at con siderable depth, and it is the sheerest folly for men who have gone into the business to stand chattering at the mouth of a ten-foot hole without the courage to go deeper When a con- pany takes a mine they should deter mine to put all the men on it that could work, day and night, until it is definitely ascertained, at a depth of not less than hundred feet, and by all possible means, whether the property is mine Or not. The picayune way of putting two or three men to work, eight or ten hours day, or when they feel like it, is the most expensive and least satisfactory way of doing such business. It disgusts and discourages all who see it going on. Be sure that money has never been made by min Ing III that way.
 Again, people should never let their of dividends run away with their sense. Money invested in mine ought not to be expected to pay a cent of dividends for at least a year after work has been commenced, even though the company could erect its own mill. The amount of work to be done and the inevitable delays make it altogether probable that any such hopes would be dashed And if all | .hings should work most favorablv the prudence of the managers would lead hem to lay by the first net returns for he rainy day.
 People who can not afford to lose the money they put into mining venture ought not to invest at all. Widows md all other persons dependent upon he income of their property, and not Ible to live by their own efforts, hould keep their fingers out of min ng, unless they can retain enough liter investing, to be comfortable still. l No matter what their possible gains nay be it will not compensate for the isk. If they disregard these princi- ,les, their voices should never be card to murmur at any loss or hard $ hip which may follow. | These observations are made in the a elief that there are plenty of people . ) do the work necessary to be done T ere and who can afford it. l I believe that if those who under l Ike mining will pay attention to these Oints, among others, there will be = etter results from the business, and ' hen reverSes come they will be met : -ith greater equanimity and far less T istress than sometimes happens. z

THE Deadwood Pioneer speaks of the mining business in the Black hills ana furnishes the following figures. Tweniy-four mills, with an aggregate or 620 stamps, produce bullion monib- ly, 10 the amount of S4O4. .15O. accord. ing to the averages furnished. But 70 per cent of the stamps are usually stopped for repair. The net yield is therefore $51SII2. The cost of pro- duction is 8 per cent. leaving a profit of Sl97,023,l3. This result is obtain ed from gold rock which averages eleven dollars per ton; 40 additional stamps are to be added at once.

JOnes-Killebrew

On Thursday afternoon last, at 4 o'clock,
Trinity Church of this city, was the scene
of a very happy and recherche wedding.
The principals in this joyous, happy affair
were Mr.. W. S. Jones, a highly connected
and elegant young gentleman OF Nashville,
Tenn, and Miss Matte KiIlebrew, the love-
ly and accomplished daughter of the Hon.
j. b. KIllebrew, Commissioner of AgricuI-
lure for the State.
Long before the hour set for The eonsum-
nation of this delicate contract, quite a
large, select, eager and expectant audience,
of the friends and acquaintance of the high
contracting parties, had assembled within
the church to witness the marriage cere-
mony. Many vases of rare and beautiful
flowers, arranged around the altar, exhaled
forth sweet perfume and lent a lovelieT
aspect to the suspicious occasion.
Promptly at o'clock the organist an
nounced the approach of the bridal party,
with a sweet and appropriate wedding
march, and the couples filed gracefully
down the center aisle and took their stand
around the altar. The incompatible and
very impressive ceremony of the Episcopal
Church was performed by the pastor, Rev. p
A. Fits, in his usual feeling and solemn
manner. The bride was given away by hel
father. After their union, the young ant
handsome couple fingered long enough tC
receive the heartfelt and sincere congratu
lations of their friends, and then departed
for the country home ofthe brides parents
situated about eight miles from town, wher,
a private reception was extended to tn EN-
and their attendants. The attendants wer

FALSE AND TRUE ISSUES.

The extra session of Congress now
sitting, if fruitful in nothing else,
seems to consider it its main duty
TO shape the issues which are to give
form To the Presidential election of
1880. Already the Republican lead
ers are beginning to claim that the
true issue will be the old struggle of
State rights against Federal author
ity. We expect presently to show
that this is not the real issue, but
first will consider how far questions
of this sort do in fact enter into the
issues Of the day. To one reading
the recent etfuSiOnS of Republican
orators it would seem to be their
position that everything which has
hitherto passed under the name of
State rights has been set aside by
the results of the war; and yet, it is
easy to see that even Republicans
are not prepared to act upon that
principle Throughout. Read their
speeches while the electoral bill of
1877 was going into operation and
II will be seen that Calhoun himself
was not better States right man
than Messrs. Morton and Conkling
were ON that occasion. In order to
carry their point of refusing to go
behind the returns, they magnified
tha exclusive rights of the State
o.. to control all matters
roIating to their elective function
and peremptOrily denied to Con-
