 A contract has been made to clean the streets at $20 per month. The subject of waterworks is still being considered.
 Had fine rain here today (24th). Nothing like it for long time past. It poured down good and strong, fill Ing gulches, streets, freshening the grass and making everybody feel happy.
 Gen. Wilcox, in command of the Military Department of Arizona, ap- pears to have given good satisfaction to the citizens of the Territory. He has attended to his duties in very satisfactory way; keeping Indians in check, and has not, to our knowledge, interfered in anything that did not concern him.

ITEMS from New York Bullion July 16: The Tombstone District in Ari- zona promises to give a new lease of life to the semi-fabulous mine of that Territory. A great outside interest is excited, and largely, we think, by the very full and clear presentation of local attractions by THE CITIZEN. This journal like that of the Standard, at BOdie, is tittingly named. Both represent their districts with marked ability. There is a mass of very loose writing in the Eastern press on the |" coming mining craze" "There is going to be a great excitement, and the mania will ruin thousands of in vestors," is the burden of the edito- rials. We'll, after the "mania has slain its thousands, gold and silver mining will go on and increase, mak- ing the people who trust in the mines rich. If the press so loud and liberal in predictions of a sort of mining pes tilence will take the trouble to study the subject, and show their readers the difference between stock gambling and mining, they will materially re- duce the list of ruined.

Some attention given to the life and
 habits Of & seven-iDch centipede this morning left the impression upon the ob- server that that agreeable Insect is slight
 Iy misunderstood by the public. He has not 8 hundred legs. but just forty. The
 smallest legs are next to the head, and
 the largest, each an inch and half long.
 are intimately connected with the tailor
 might be had he tail at all. Each leg terminates in & sharp claw, and when the animal is startled or an attempt made to shake him of ne will, no doubt. pinch hard enough with his claws to wound the flesh of 8 man, after the manner Of a cat scratch. But be does not seem to purpose any damage to the object to which he clings. and 1t is doubtful whether such in- juries would have any serious effect. He has a terrible pair Of pineers attached to his head. which he uses when he is angry, and the specimen obsefved this morning needed to make but one dive with those warlike Instruments, to lay large taran- tuls on his back, quiverlng in death. We have always heard that the centlpede bit
 with his legs, but it is certain that he pos
 sesses a far better and more deadly appar-
 atus than that, which he uses, however, only when enraged. Moral: Don't en-
 rage him.

Unlawful Imprsonment Of Youths.

Two Mexican boys under the age of four teen years, were sentenced by justice Of the peace at Greaterville, to conine- ment in. the County jail of three and six months each for trivial oienses. The Board Of Supervisors to whom the facts were reported requested the District Attor- ney to investigate the matter. Finding that they could not be held under our law, the District Attorney consented 10 their discharge from custody.
 It is highly grstified that the Board so promptly, in connection with District At torney Farley. looked into this matter and relieved the county from unnecessary
 expense by the ill-adviced and unlawful action of the justice of the peace. A refusal to approve the accounts Of the respective officers connected with this act will remind justices in general to be very careful in making bills against the Coun- ty, especially in convicting persons with out probable cause and in manner not warranted by our Territorial laws.

TUE outside world rarely hears OF aCces-
sions to tho Oneida community Of free
lovers, for the reason, doubtless, that the
members OF that institution studiously
guard against publicity in such matters.
In fact for some years past the doors have
been closed to newcomers Of the male sex,
the ranks being adequately supplied with
the number supposed to be requisite 10
maintain harmony and insure prosperity.
But, that accessions Of female members
are occasionally made is to be presumed
from the fact that ono has just come
to light. The Syracuse Journal, in re-
lating the occurrence, handles the details
without gloves and makes quite a'sen.
s%ALional article out Of it; but stripped
Of all verbal garniture, it appears
that n young lady,the daughter Of wealthy
parents, residing in tho village OF Danforth,
Just outside the limits Of Syracuse, has de-
libcrately left her home and united her
fortunes with the Oneida Community.
Her name is considerably concealed, and
that circumstances tends to throw ashadow
Of incredibility upon the narrative, but
the JOunOl vouches for its reliability. The
young lady who has voluntarily consign-
ed herself to this fate is credited with hay.
ing led a strictly virtuous lie, and is said
to be highly intelligent and attractive.
She is Of American birth, good ~parentage,
and was surrounded by all the advantages
Of u comfortable home. No reason is as.
