Msrmous in Arizsua.

Mr. a. f. Mcdonald, president of
the Mormon settlements of central
and southern Arizona, and II. W.
Brizee, David p. Kimball and c. J.
Robinson, of Mesaville, a Mormon
settlement on Salt river, reached
Tucson, Thursday night on their
way to st. David settlement, ON the
San Pedro river, eighty miles from
Bedson, whittier they proceeded yes
terday morning, with the exception
of Mr.. Brizee, with the intention of
inspecting the colony, and holding
religious services ON Sunday next.
Mr.. BriZee called at the Journal
office yesterday morning and we had
the pleasure of seeing pioneer be-
sides whom all others are mere ten
der-feet. He came TO Arizona thirty
five years ago, with the Mormon
Legion. The march of the 500 was
attended with unparalleled hard
ships,and when they reached Tucson
they were nearly famished for food
and water. The native population
manifested decided signs of hos
tility, and Mexican soldieTy offered
battle, but there was death in re-
treat, and the Mormons made bold
dash and entered the village, which
was little more than collection of
mud huts, with no pretentions to
grandeur and no promise Of future
greatness. The troops fed in terror
before the onslaught of these starv-
ing pioneers, and they were enabled
to quench their thirst and appease
their appetites. -
Mesaviile is a hOurishing settle
ment Of 800 souls. The lands owned
by the MormOns are irrigated by
canals from Salt River, and fruits
and crops grow luxuriantly. Lat
terly they have turned their atten-
ton to the cultivation of grapes, and
have been very successful. Jones'
vile, within a few miles of Mesa
vile, has about seventy-five fami-
lies. who are fully as enterprising
and energetic as their neighbors.
The MOrmOns, when they return
from the San Pedro, will probably !
enlighten the citizens of Tucson in
regard to the general features of |
heir faith, and will endeavor to |
brush away some Of the cObWebs
which have obscured the visions of |
Christians and blinded them to the |
'eally meritorious characteristics of |
he Mormon belief.-TucSon "a. IT,

Garfield.

SALT LAKE CITY, May 81, 1881.
Editors Herald:
1t seems to me that President
Garfeld's reign has not commenced
very auspiciously. In his augura-
ton he went out of his way to need
lessly attack a small and remote
community of people who mind
their own business, and to attack
them because of their religion, as
though in this free republic it was
crime to be conscientious i'll relig
ious matters. In that particular he
began wrong, making mistake at
the very beginning of his preSiden-
tial career, and with little excuse,
for he was not altogether o stranger
to the people he so gratuitiously and
wantonly attacked. He had been a
visitant among them and had en-
joyed opportunities of acquaintance
with them, so that he might have
known their convictions, and conse-
quently there was no justification
for him in making the attack upon
that people,
Well, as if providence was dis
pleased with him, things continued
to 90 wrong-he got the Senate into
adeadlock for weeks over his nomin-
ations; he fell into an irreconcilable
quarrel with one of his chief sup
porters, who has large following,
though that following may diminish
because its chief has not got the
loaves and fishes in his hands; this
quarrel makes a split in the party
and that is a serious matter polite
ally; his nominee for the Supreme
Court got through the Senate by the
skin of his teeth; then he had sore
affection in his family. for his wife
was brought down to the gates OF
death. What further hard expert
| ence is in the path of the President
is not for me to say, but so far it ha:
not been strewn with pure delights
alone. If he sleeps on bed OF roses
there are some decorating thorn!
amongst them, which apparently b.
cannot avoid, turn whittier he will
His chances for a denomination
which he no doubt has had IN hi
eye, grow smaller by degrees AM
beautifully less, and before the tim
| for that he may have plenty o
cause to think that the seat of tn
man in the presidential chair is no
the easiest in the world. Ono.

President Garfield was shot on the

Baltimore & Ohio Railroad while walk
ing to the train for Long Branch. He
entered the room accompanied by Secre-

now, as in 1870, more than 80 per cent of the

tories. OF these fifteen, only Missouri. Illinois,
Indiana, and Massachusetts,, produce less than
in 1870. Kentucky occ upies the first position,
