Relations Existing Between CoUn- tries.
 A Atriend Of The CITIZEN furnishes is columns with a traa~atioa Of an ed- itorial which appeared in La Cousti- lucion, November ] ruJli-hed at
 Hermosillo, Inc capitol af our neigh boring State Of Sonora:
 In a previous numter we published an account Of the arrest and impris- oument, by the authorities Of Arizona, of ten Ufthe followers of tue fac,ioniz.s Narqaez and Bigido Reyes. We then made the remark in relation To he frater1al feeling exIs ting between Mexico and the United states, which friendly relations are every day hy the proofs oi cordial ItY which are given u- by tls neigh boring Republic.
 We now desire Co sny few w"Ids in relation Co SSa-rs and Arizona, which have an atiiniiy Ol in.eresJ-, and whose mutual relations, having the same objects la view, are eonstanl- iy increasing in strength.
 The population Cl Arizona is iu a great part composed of tue natives or sonora, who have here heir relations, not only of uutIOnsiIty, but also oi fam ly, which Causc them 10 be in constant muuiC .giOG with their country; and tEe same Is true With relation tO great number of Amer ican cItizens, who are at present re- siding in this Slate, and who are con- stunlly arriving. The friends aud relations uf these keep up a constant cOmmunicauuu BCruss the line, and from this springs the mutually ira- trrnal feeling which morally Unite> 10th people.
 In addition tO this, the commerce winch has been developed between this State and Arizona, the necessity which has been here created for the consumption of American products that come by the Nuy Ci IaGs.u, aud JAc nO less necessity existing in Arizona of supporting tEs commerce. between tue two countries uy tue consumption of the products of oug Soil. are mo- tIves of interest that strongly cuntri5- ute 10 strengthen and preserve the re- iations existing between ths two cOul- ri g.
 The respectable aud influential col ony Suu0rauese now in Arizuna, being ever drsirous ot giving a good im- pressiOn oi their native country iu a land of strangers, have succeeded in establishing In tuat county % jus, ap- preciaiiuu Ui our character, destroying the prec"nCeIved opinion heretofore ,x.siug among American people in relation 10 our cOuHtrymeB, lab rIng at the same time to make us Under stand thut We shall extend and strengthen our relui1ns with that pro gressIve country.
 We may rest assured that Arizona and Sonora shou q bdvc Eut cue cUd m view-to unite themselves more und more by cOmmerciU. relations, creating a current Ot traffic between the two places, winch wIi rcsait ID the prO-pery Oi JI.h, by developing the aliUnal resources thyTlOL

 As m this country criminals from the neighJDrIuE Territory have never b en DermIttei Co find IeiurC, hui have been returued when demanded, Ill accordance with the existing treaty. so in Arizona the h8di,s who have eudcuyursd tO dlslufb our sociyty have been cha,tised and disappointed iu their dreams Iuat Oa the other siIr of the line they uid hni protection under the tiag Ut the CIitel Sllcs Hs il this would afford protection Co a common enemy ot suciey.
 Gu the part Uf Sonora there is m earnest desire tO CO-Opcritc n the strengthening of cur friendly with ArIzOna, which desile, as We have shown, is recip iprocalcd by our ueig bOrs.
