A FEW COuNTy
To MEMBERs or THE LEGIsLATURE FROM
 fiFEA1. AND 3fkRfcoPA (,orNrrre.


 To MEMBERS or THE LEGTsLATURE FROM
 FINAL AND MARIcoFA COUNTIES.
 Tie question of a new county to
 be,erecled from the counties of Pinal gAd Maricopa is to be brought be- fore the legislature, now in session at Prescott, by petitions numerousIy signed. The boundaries of this new county, we understand, are to be lnes running from about the precinct called The Summit, on tho northwest of Globe, taking m the populations known as the Wheat6elds. Tonto Basin and McMillen, and San Carlos 0n the south, thus including Globe in about the center-conshtuting a county of about forty miles square which from it's central position and its business importance would of ne- cessity be the county seat.
 The great distance all these popu- lations are from the county-seats of the counties to which they are at taehed-the extremes being consider ably over one hundred miles-is good and sufficient reason for the erection of another county. The expense in criminal cases ia which the Territory is interested and charges incident thereto, and in other county matters, are a burden upon the counties to which they belong, and one which they would willingly resign.
 The individual hardships of having to travel one hundred and fifty miles to inaugurate a suit in the district court, or to defend one, aud the ex- pense of serving official papers, antI commanding the presence of wit nesses and jurors jn the extreme portions of the counties is simply fabulous, and not within the means of the people to justify their indulging in the luxury of obtaining justice or of defending themselves from oppres- sion or injustice. The inhabitants within the boundaries mentioned are believed to be unanimous in their wish for this separation and the es- tablishment of a new county. The objection to it can only come frsm the remainder of the population of Pinal, whe are anxious to retain us until they collect from us in taxation to build thelr county buildings at Florence, and the officials there lo- cated to draw their oppressive fees in judicial and other matters oe record. Maricopa, more generous, We nnder- stand, is ready to give up her hold on McMillen and other extremely dis tant settlements, and lend Q helping hand in the creation of another county. This is as it should be. When population united and numer- ous enough to form themselves into a separate community, and are will- ing to bear any additional bnrthens resulting therefrOn, 1t is but just, right and proper that their brethern should bid them God speed, and aid them in their efforts to that end.
 Ne suggest that the new county shall be called Apache.
 We call upon our representatives in both branches of the legislature te add their influence and support to this movement. CITIZENS. /

THE AFGHAN WAR.
A Prospect of its Continuance.
THE AMEER's DEATH REPORrED.
The Condition Of Afghan Troeps.

New YORK, March l. A Tashkend t.es-
patch states the Afghahistan ambassadors
were received by General Kaufman, ycster-
day, in Russia. rFe~
General Rasgronof who accompanied the
embassy, says the Afghans inclined to resist
ance, notwithstanding the efforts Of partisan
English at Cabul, who act a. spies on the
Afghans, and who calumniate Russians on
every occasion.
The Amer in Afghan was everywhere re-
ceived with reclamation. Ten thousand peo-
pie came out from Tashkergan to meet him.
The Ameer announced, wherever he went,
his determination to continue the war against
the British.
Rasgronoff says neither the Afghans Eor
British are doing much in war movements ~
present. The war will last long time, un-
less the Afghans find good General, which
they may do. They have good soldiers, but
detestable commanders. They possess two
hnndred cannon scattered over their territory
and numerous cavalry which are incompar-
able in quality and could destroy the inv aders
if properly handled.
The governor Of Samarcand telegraphs to
General Kaufihisn that the report Of the death
of Shere Ali has been brought to Samarcand
by people arriving from the Afghan frontier.
