A NoLCANO's FLAMEs.-The volcano Fuego
near the city Of Antique, Guatemala, has
| alter many years of silence and apparent
| rest, In which there was little to determine
| Its character as volcano except occasional
emissions of smoke and odd rumblinp
noises from within, burst out in an angry
and terrific eruption. So far 9s we know,
there was nothing during the few DAYS
which preceded the explosion to indicate
any exceptional activity in the volcanic
agencies which are perpetually at work in
that region, and therefore the outburst, at
A. NJ. on June 90, was equally surprising
and terrible for the dwellers in the villages
and country about AS seen from the deck
OF the Pacific Mail steamer Wil,nnqton by
the officer on watch, at q distance, as the
crow flies, of nearly fifty miles, the specta.
Gle was magnificent. From the highest
peak of the Fuego great columns of flame
darted up into the air to hight, as nearly
as could be determined, of from 400 to
500 feet. The surrounding country to the
east and south was illuminated by the
tremendous glare of the flames, while to
the northward and westward the oleuds ol
dust and smoke which accompanied the
cOntlagration obscured the whole country.

The darkness falls, the wind is high.
Dense black clouds fill the western sky;
The storm will soon begin:
The thunders roar. the lightnin6S flash

Are all the children in?
They're coming softly to my side;
Their forms within my arms l hide
No other arms are sure;
The storm may rage with fury wild,
With trusting faith each little child
With mother feels secure.
But future days are drawinG near
They'll go from TINS wal M shelter here
Out in the worlds wild din;
The rain will fall, the cold winds blow,
Ill sit alone and long to know
Are all the children in?
viii they have shelter then secure,
Where hearts are waiting strong and sure,
And love is true when tried?
Or, will they find a broken reed,
When strength of heart they so much need,
To help them brave the tide?
God knows it all; His will is best,
III shield them now and yield the rest
In His most righteous hand;
sometimes souls he loves are rivcn,
By tempest wild, and thus are driven
Nearer the better land.

 The best evidence of the growth of Tucson IS the way in which our business men launch ont. The popular liquor house of Vim. B. Hooper & Co. is good representa- tion of this spirit Their trade has become so extensive of late that they have rented the large building occupied as the Alhambra saloon, on Mesilla street. in which they will move in few avs. Arrange saents have also been made for building two large store rooms near the depot and close by the railroad. one of these building will be used as a liquor warehouse, and the other as wholesale petro- leum oil establishment. In this latter the oil will be stored in large tanks, taken from the tanks on cars, which will be shipped directly fIom rho eastern refneries, thus saving che breakage and waste when shipped in small bulk. Both of these storerooms will be connected with the main office on MesilIa street by telephone, and any or ders given for goods to be shipped by mail will be telephoned to the warehouse, thus saving time, labor and cost of Transportation. This enterprise looks like business, and to the firm of Vim. B. Hooper 6 Go. IS due much credit for taking the initial step.-Tucson Star.
 The branch establishment of the above firm in Phoenix, is doing an immense business, and sells about all the liquors used in Northern Arizona.

MCDOWELL, 4. T.. July 26.
 EDITOR HERALD:-Mr. Samuels. one of the owners of the Zulu mine in Tonto Basin, arrived here Q day or two since, and reports having discovered on, or near. the east fork of the Verde, ledge of gold bearing rock, that is fifty feet wide and prospects way up, and if it goes down any depth it will be the mine of Arizona The owners in this extraordinary discovery are Samuels, Gowen and Sam Hhi, of Prescott The discovery was made June 22d, 1880, since which time Messrs. Bacon, Rouse and Snow have located the Golden Treasure, Golden Reef and other smaller lodges, but all prospect well. The name of the big ledge is "Ameri- can." 2 gosd name. Great excite ment prevails, I understand, about this new and wonderful discovery. It would be well for the merchants of Phoenix, and farmers of Salt River Valley to reach out for the trade of this Tonto Basin, ere it be too late. This can be done by the expenditure of not over S2. .5QO. What say you citizens of Salt River? Will you help to repair the road to Reno, or sit down and curse con tractors, and damn the hard times, and growl at everything and let this opportunity go by default? It looks very favorable for the Tonto country to be ere long the great mining camp of Arizona. A word to the wise, etc."

on Sunday he informed his con-

astonishment, that the South was
not at all what was represented

ed that the bulk of the stories cir
culated in the North "are sheer
fabrications"-which Ia a good
deal for a Northern man 10 say in

even ventured to add that "for

Words of Wisdom.

Good will, like a good name, is
got by many actions and lost by
one.
Convey thy love to thy friend as
an arrow TO the mark, to stick
there; not as a ball against the
wall, 10 rebound back to thee.
Self-devotion is but form of
generosity of those who give to
themselves, having nothing more
and nothing better TO give, and
belongs equally to the nobler
natures of both sexes.
1t is well enough 10 be humble.
but it is possible to boast of your
humanity until IL sours into the
worst kird of self pride. There is
hardly a virtue in the calendar
which man will not lose If he
talks much about it.
Whatever your sex or position,
life is battle in which you are to
show your pluck, and woe be to
the coward! Whether passed on
bed of sickness or in the tented
field, it is ever the same fair flag,
and admits of no distinction.
Without earnestness no man is
ever great, or does really great
things. He may be the cleverest
Of men; he may be brilliant, en-
pertaining, popular; but he will
want weight. No soul-moving
picture was ever painted that had
not in it the depth of shadow.
