HAVING arraigned Louisiana so of ten for the stain upon her fair fame caused by the legal existence of the monstrous and demOralizing lottery company, whose notifications are seen all over the country, this journal can not refrain from cOngratulating that State upon the repeal of the company's charter, now at last effected The sig nature of the Governor has made the repeal bill law, and no act of Cover nor Nichols is more worthy of praise. Of course the lottery company will fight like grim death all through the courts to maintain its so-called rights, but of the ultimate result we enter tain no doubt The efforts of the back CTS of the concern in New York to buy a charter from Delaware and other States shows that they are being driven to close quarters and are look ing to their last card.-Philadelphia Times.

fir. Hunters Denial.

TUCSON, ARIZONA, April ,, 1879 To THE EDITOR OF TIE CITIZEN:
 SIR: My attention has been drawn to your editorial headed "A Word of Caution" in your paper of April 4th, in which you assert that 1 have while in the East, denounced as worthless mining property generally in Arizona and Sonora, and particularly the Tombstone and Patagonia Districts. and Pesqueira's mines in Sonora. This assertion is utterly false and absolutely without foundation. While East I denounced the mines owned by the Aztec Syndicate of Arizona as being practically worthless and their sale to said Syndicate at the price and on the representations made by the ven dOrs as a swindle The Directors of the Syndicate asked me if knew of amy good mines they could buy aud I distinctly told them there were good mines for sale in the Roddick group in the Santa Ritas, in the Patagonia, Tombstone, and Arivaca Districts, and l strongly recommended them to pur- chase one or more good mines, if they desired to prosecute their business sue cessfully.
 While East I was interviewed by many mining men and outside of the clique of men who had been concern ed in the sale of the mines to the Az tee Syndicate, they unanimously ex- pressed entire approval of my expo sure of that operation and their opin- ion that my course was of great bene- fit to honest mining enterprises, as showing to Eastern investors that there are parties in Arizona desirous of preventing the success of false rep of mines.
 l was specially requested by the Aztec Syndicate of Arizona to come East and tell them the true facts asI to their mines. As their Superintend- ent it was my duty to do so, and if their mines will not bear the truth being told about them, it is their mis- fortune not my fault
 A. G. HUNTER.
 We call attention to the foregoing, on the part of all persons interested in Arizona mining, who, with our selves, have heard much of late about the matters alluded to in our remarks of yesterday MT. Hunter denies hay ing made the disparaging statements about the country generally, which were commonly reported, and in which alone we were interested. We wish his denial the fullest circulation. AS. to his references to the Aztec, we must call attention to the fact that we dis .inctly stated that we knew nothing of the merits of the difficulties between him and that company. Our desire was simply that no statements of the class reported should go abroad un- ,ontradicted They were going abroad md we contradicted them. Now NIT. Hunter also contradictS them; and the public has the benefit of both denials.

WASHINGTON, April 3.-The Secre- tary of the Treasury has appointed a Commission, consisting of H. B. James, Chief of the Customs Division: E. W. Clark, Chief of the Revenue Marine Division, and A. K. Tingley, Supervis- ing Special Agent, to consider and re- port on all information reaching the Treasury Department concerning AL aska affairs. They are directed to draft some scheme of civil government for the Territory: to report whether the country should be protected by troops or by means of gunbOats, and to devise plan for arming and organ iZing customs officers and citizens The Commission are expected to make a thorough and valuable investiga- tion of the subject intrusted to them, and the results of their labors will probably be communicated to Con gross by Secretary Sherman in his an nual report next December The Col lectOr of Customs at Sitka has recent ly written an urgent letter to the De pertinent portraying the dangerous and distressful condition of affairs in that vicinity, praying for protection generally, and making a special re- quest that a company of soldiers be ordered to Sitka immediately.

TIE New York Times of April 3 says in reference to the exodus of col ored people from the South, that tho Southern Pacific will give employ ment to 1000 negroes nexi fall, that EXSenatOr Patterson will hereafter reside in Tucson, and that he has talk en the matter in hand in conjunction with leading colored mer of South Carolina, his former State.

The Pacific Railroad has agreed to cary colOred emigrants from Omaha Wpo may be going to Southern Californn and Ari- zona, if they arrive in bodie at Oma- Ina, at the rate of one cent OIthereabout per mile, which would m{ke the cost of the whole journey fromthe Missou- ri River to Maricopa mt over $50. There is a decided inclhation at the California end of the tran continental roads to encourage emigrsion thither, and to that end fares are likely to be largely reduced and secnd-class ac- cOmmodations large incresed.

JUDGE ERASTE MOUTON.

Perhaps no one was wider or
more f%avorably known throughout
this and the adjoining parishes
than the subject of this sketch
whose untimeIy decease occurred
in New Orleans last Sunday at
2 o'clock A NJ. X scion of a noble
family that has given to the coun.
try some Of its greatest and
most noted public men, he bore
his honors with characteristic
dignity. Upon the bench, he was
the most patient and upright OF
Judges, in the walks Of life, a
courteous gentleman and . firm
friend, and in the family circle,
an afectionate husband and an
indulgent father. He had filed
with ability the position of Dis
trict Judge for many years, and
endeared himself to his fellow
citizen by his fair and nnblemished
course. One Of natures nob!emen,
he dispensed his generous hospit-
atty with a lavish hand, and gave
to every man his just dues. In
his death, the country has sustain
ed the loss of a virtuous, and
esteemed citizen, the judiciary, an
able and upright member, and his
family, all that was near and
dear to them. May the green sod
rest lightly over him
bD- Mud, nothing but mud.

feature Of the Bazaar was the
dramatic performances and must

Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
nights. Perhaps few people enjoy

Hoping that our readers will

of our notes.
MONDAY NIGHT
the Court House was we'll
6lled with ladies and gentlemen,
and after an excellent overture
by the St. Joseph Brass Band the
curtain rose upon the French
comedy "La Sortilcge Naturel'
which was well acted in every
respect. Mrs. Geo. E. Lyons and
Misses Pepilla Abadie and
Herriette Mouton played several
fine pieces Of music. when Mr.. W.
B. White and Odille Broussard
sang Home Again" in fine style.
The curtain then rose and Mr..
Clarence Edwards appeared in
the famous Ouch Song "Dot
Leedie German Band" doubtless
it was his odd costume and ey-
cellent take Off Of the Dutch
man that took the house /; anyway
they fairly howled with laughter,
and seemed perfectly delighted.
Very soon after, the curtain rose
upon the French comedy "Qai
cas- les Verres les Pays" with the
following cast:
LIE Docteur... Nv. Mouton
Giles Jos. Monillaud
Scaramouche. .........A Monlor
Ar!eQuin j M Beaukis
Leandre ..........A d Laborde
Rosin 49,. Miss Eleonore Bernard
Nothing better than this could
have been desired. Giles kept
the house in a roar while lie
Docteur was the embodiment of
profundity. Of the remaining
parts it can only be said they
were excellent.
TUESDAY NIGHT
found a fair number of persons
in attendance. Overture by the
Band was followed by some choice
instrumental music upon the
piano by Madame G Labauve and
Pepilla Abadie, Henriette Mouton,
