SIX LITTLE FEET ON THE FEN,
DER.


In my heart there liveth picture
Of II kitchen rude and old,
Where the freight tripped DER the rafteTs
And reddened the roofs brown mould;
Gliding the steam from the kettle
That hummed on the foot'wOrn hearth
Throughout the livelong evening,
Its measures OF drowsy mirh.
Because of the three light shadows
That lrescOed the rude old room
Because of the voices echoed
Up mid the lafters gloom
Because OF the feet on the fender,
Six restless, white little feet
The houghts Of that dear old kitchen
Are TO me so dear and sweet
When the hrst dash on the window
Told Of the coming rain,
Oh, where are the fair young faces
That crowded against the paneH
While bits OF frrlight stealing,
Their dimpled cheeks between,
Went struggling out IN darkness,
In shreds Of silver sheen.
Two Of the feet grew weary
One dTeary, dismal day.
And we tied them with snow.white ribbons.
Leaving them there by the way.
There was fresh clay on the fender
That weary wintry night
For the four little feet had tracked II
From his grave on the brown hills height.
Oh! why on this darksome evening,
This evening of rain and Sleet
Ret my feet all alone on the hearthstone?
Oh! where are those other feet?
Are they treading the pathway of virtue
That Will bring us together above!
Or have they made steps that Will dampen
sisters tircless love?

American Students at Milan.

The Milan correspondent of the New
York Herald writes:
Two or three years ago there were, |
am told, nearly two hundred Americans,
mostly young ladies, studying in the
stately Lombard capital; but for various
reasons this number was reduced during
the winter TO only seventy or eighty.
Were the number still further reduced
the musical world would not be greatly
the sufferer, for Miian's reputation is not
so great for producing prime dome as for
the reign Of charlatanism among the
teachers who profess to make voices
and prepare young singer for the oper-
attic stage. American girls have of late
wears swarmed hither in the
hope of becoming fitted for the ex-
ercse Of beautiful profession, anu what
has been the result Of their devotion and
their study? A few have made for them
selves names and fortune; scores have
been socially ruined; some have died, and
A score or two are at this moment singing
in the small Opera-houses of small Italian
towns to the miserable cliques OF operate
habitues. There are many girls that have
passed the ordeal Of fire at Milan, but
many more have fallen. There are grave
Of American and English girls in the
Milan cemetery with which sad, SAD
stories are connected; Of beautiful girl
who came here full Of courage and beau
tiful hopes Of fame, only to find in the
city which is reputed to be the home o.
music, disappointment, delusion anc
death.

THE fifth annual report of the New
York Society for the Suppression of Vice
has recently been issued. For the short
time this society has been in existence it
has accomplished much in the suppress
son OF obscene literature aud illu>tra-
tons and articles oi indecent and I'M
moral list" which was the object Of its
organization. In 1873 Congress passed Il
law to prevent the transmission Of inde
cent matter through the mails, which
was amended in 1876. This law has been
of great aid 10 the society in its work of
Suppression, at the same time the law has
aroused fierce opposition because of its
supposed unconstitutional infringement
upon the rights Of the people to use the
mails. Petitions for its repeal signed by
over 10000 names have been sent to Con-
gress. The Committee on Revision of
Laws, however, to whom these petitions
were referred. reported unanimously in
favor Of retaining the existing statute as
a wise, sanitary and strictly constitu-
tional measure. A partial synopsis from
this report Of the society Of the work it
has accomplished in the past five years
will show that it has not been idle. 1t
has caused the arrest OF 364 persons en-
gagged in unseemly traffic; lS4 Of whom
have been convicted, and 1863 sentenced
to an aggregate imprisonment of 142
years, 8 months and % days Fines to
the amount OF SAT ,5S5 have been i'm.
posed. About u tons Of books and
Bheet stock have been seized and de-
stroyed, besdcs 202 ,679 indecent pictures
and photographs; 7,400 microscopic
charms, knives, ETC.. LOO negative
plates; 352 steel and copper plates; $50
wood cuts and electro plates IL, 400
pounds of stereotype plates for printing
books, etc; 80 lithograph stones; 64,094
articles of immoral use; COP packs OF
playing cards, and 1,250000 of circulars
catalogues, songs, poems, etc. 22,354
newspapers containing unlawful adver
tisements have been seized, and 3200(
open letters, in possession of persons ar
r.sted. Lists of names and Post-otfic,
addresses of 422, 800 people, male ant
female, to whom circulars etc, may bt
sent, were also found and destroyed
1t is said that the law as il pow stands vii

Arizona citizen., 1879-02-08

about three weeks ago about twenty miles below here. It is understood that robbers are to be taken dead or alive, where they are well known as such. It is more certain and less dan gerous 10 take them dead than alive. besides they never escape after cap ture. The Governor and the officers of this district are in earnest about business. They have no adequate pris- ons or police force, but there is a healthy public sentiment here and a fixed determination to keep the roads clear of these people.
 The escape from the so-called prison here, (Magdalena,) of one of the Fin ley and Adams murderers has intensi- fled the purpose of Governor Maris- cal and the judges and officers of this district to do their part towards exter- lminating these mixed bands of Ameri cans and Mexicans who depredate along the boundary line. Celaya is reputed to have been the man who robbed the stage on the Gila last year, and for whom large rewards were of fered, and who served term or two in the California Penitentiary.

Rnlroad News from on Eastern
 Standpoint.

When in Washington, about the mid
 dle of January, MT. John Wasson me
 and had a conversation with Mir. c. P
 Huntington, of the California and Ari
 zona railways. In reply to questions
 from MT. Wasson, regarding railroad progress and the purposes of the South ern Pacific Company, MT. H. said the road would be built at the rate of one to one and a half miles per day, that being the highest speed consistent with economical construction; that the com pany had the money and material in hand to build to Fl PasO, and the road would be built to that point in the shortest time consistent with economy in the work; that he had just pur- chased and forwarded 33,0OO tons more of iron; that the people of Tucson might reasonably expect completion Of the road to their town during the present year, 1879.
 There is evidently purpose on part of the company to very soon have complete overland line from Pacific to Atlantic waters under its sole control. It is well known that of the present overland lines from San Francisco to New York, the California company controls less than one-fourth of the whole distance and is therefore unable to make as liberal rates for fares and freights as it wants to do. It is also we'll known that years ago, the Cali fornla company wanted to make a through passenger rate from New York to San Francisco, firstclass, at SlO0, but the connecting companies refused unless the Central would stand the whole reduction, which it could not do. Then it will be remembered that when, last year, the Union Pacific ordered the freight tariff doubled, President Stanford entered vigorous protest, but without influence, on the eastern managers These latter obser- vations are our own, and are not even based on any thing said by NIT. Hunt ington to NIT. Wasson, but are public facts and evidently operate to hasten the completion of through line by the Central and Southern people, which will be under their own and sole con- trol. They have heretofore been much and prevented from pur- suing as liberal a policy as they de- sired.

MariScaI to Fremont.

Acquisitions having been made from time 10 time on General Mariscal, as Governor of Sonora for the extradItion of criminals committing murders and robberies in Arizona and Aeeing to Sonora, General Mariscal writes to President DiaZ to know what he shall do in the premises. The national au- thorities thereupOn inform him that although it is their desire 10 do every thing to promote good feeling and understanding between Mexico and this Government, it would not be dec orous to grant the extradition of Mexican citizens as long as the govern ment of the United States does not make formal promise to reciprocate the favor; and that to this end instruc- tions have been given to the Mexican minister at Washington to ask for such reciprocity. In the meantime Mariscal is directed to send 10 the Mexican government the acquisitions for extraditiOn already made and any that may yet be made by Arizona authorities, and 10 continue 10 assid- uously arrest all criminals who may take shelter in Sonora, and on no ac- count to release any criminals until farther instructions. In the face Of such stringent instructions, Mariscal can only hold on to his criminals and wait On January 20, he writes to Gov. Fremont to this effect and hopes his inability to do what he would per sOnally like to do may not be inter- preted ss willful and unguaranteed ac- tion againt justice and the successful prosecution of crime. He addition ally writes: must also inform you that the government of Sonora has re- ceived instruction from the national government by which It is ordered that Mexicans who have committed crimes in foreign territory, and who may be arrested, be handed over 10 the federal courts 10 be there tried and punished" Gov. Mariscal therefore requests that any citizens of Arizona who may have been injured by citizens of Sonora will make their complaints to the district courts of Sonora, to which tribunals he is going to deliver those Mexicans Tn arrest there now for murders and robberies in Arizona.

MAGDALENA, SONORA, February 4.
 EDITOR CITIZEN: Guadalupe Celaya
 the chief robber, was killed on the night of the 2d instant, about twelve miles above this place He with two others had their rendezvous in a ravine near Terrenate. On the mesa adioin. ing it was a small unoccupied house
 The night, though in full moon, was very stormy. The special posse sent in pursuit, took refuge from the storm in this house, awaiting daylight for the execution of their purpose. They lay down under the porch and four of the five fell asleep. The fifth was alarmed by the approach of horses, and awoke his comrades. In a mo ment the horsemen were at the porch and he asked, "Who comes there {" Guadalupe Celaya," was the reply, accompanied with a shot from his re- yolver. It and his second shot took effect in a post supporting the porch, which he probably mistook for the man who accosted hIm. His own fire was fatal to him, the whole posse in the darkness, being directed by the flash from Celaya's pistol, returned the fire, ten shots, five of which took effect and Celaya fell dead. His horse and his two comrades took flight, and at last accounts had not been captured, though the posse is in pursuit. Rodri- gues, one Of Celaya's kind, was killed
