TUE PROSPECTS UNDER RESUMPTION

THE PROSPECTS UNDER RESUMPTION
Yesterday was the first practical day Of
legal resumption, the day named in the law
being respected as a holiday. The work of
redccming the national faith was entered
upon and pursued without the slightest con-
yulsion, disturbance, or even ripple upon
the financial sea. There was nothing like
Il run on the Treasury or the banks for coin,
but business moved along rs smoothly rs
though such thing as the suspension of
specie payments had never been expert
cnced, Nobody seemed to want coin, and
the facts show that in most in tnces green
backs were preferred, as will appear by u
dispatch from the sub-Treasury in New
York, published in full in another part of
this issue, covering yesterday doings. Suf-
lice il to say here that while $4,000 Of

A SHORT time ago we suggested

A SHORT time ago we suggested
the name of Col. J. G. Howard, Of
Los Angeles, as an eminently at
man to 60 upon the Supreme
Bench. At this time We did not
know what Col. Howard's politics
were, and we thought, besides, on
mature deliberation, that politics
ought to have little to do with the
judicial office. The San Francisco
Post has the following concerning
our townsman:
Colonel James G.. Howard, of
Los Angeles, will be supported for
one Of the Supreme Court judge
ships. He will carry into the Re-
publican convention the delega-
tien from Los Angeles county a
unit in his favor. In addition to
eminent personal qualifications for
the Office, Colonel Howard will
have strong geographical reasons
in his favor, In the fact that Los
Angeles district is clearly entitled
to at least one Associate Justice on
the Supreme Bench. Another
strong argument in his favor Is
that he Is an old newspaper editor.
Whether Democratic or Republi-
can, Col. Howard is one of the
strongest and ablest lawyers IN the
State. If the Republican party
concludes to make judicial nomina.
tions it could not do better than tc
nominate Col. Howard.

A Bold and Singing Address.

The conduct of Queen Victoria,
In relation to affairs in India and
South Africa, a few weeks ago,
brought from the House of Com
mons a resolution of censure of the
Government and indirectly of the
Queen herself, for having trenched
upon the prsrogative of Parlia-
ment. Among the promoters OF
the resolution were Sir Robert
Peel, who made some sharp allus-
ions in Parliament to the Queens
friendship to Lord Chelmsford,
snapped at the Duke of Cam
bridge and referred disagreeably to
Thackeray's estimates of the whole
race of Royal Georges. Soon af-
terwards Mr.. Bowles, u journalist,
known to be one of the Prince of
Wales "friends," published in his
paper, Vanity Fair, an indiscreet
intimation that the royal family
meant to cut Sir Robert. Seeing
this, Sir Robert instantly sent Mr..
Bowles the following stupendous
lejter:
WHITEHALL, April Is, 1873.

rae Need Of Arfsona-Ths silver
K1og.

What is needed in Arizona at
this stage Of development is one
great, leading mine, with record
Of . heavy treasure output. Such
. record has been already made by
the Silver King mine. 1t has
yielded two and a half million mint
cd dollars so far. This mine has
been brought to its present stage
by Colonel James M. Barney, one
Of the pioneers Of development In
Arizona. It has been steady
.dIvidend.paying mine until Of late;
and, II Dame Rumor is to be relied
upon, dividends are shortly to be
resumed. 1t Ia q great thing to
have introduced such mine to the
public, and to have borne the ex-
pense, delay and Inconvenience Of
its development. We learn that
the Silver King has lately been in
spected by Gen. Myers, Mr.. G. c.
Hastings and Gen. Rice; and that,
within ten days, Col. Gray, of the
Southern Pacific Railway, has also
carefully examined 1t. From these
gentlemen we learn, through an
indirect but reliable source, that
there is now In the Silver King,
in sight, more than the ex-
cavations, by actual measurement,
show to have been extracted from
Il. When we bear in mind that
the Silver King mine is yet only
At trifiipg depths, and that 1t has
yielded more money in dividends
than any mine on the Comstock,
with exceptions that do not exceed
. dozen, we are warranted, in view
of the facts which have been elicit
Cd by practical men as to its pres.
snt condition, in looking for bril-.
liant developments from it-devel-
opments which will have an i'm
portant influence on the immedi-
ats mining future and settle
