The internal machines have been put to
a practical test in Providence, Rhode Is
land. The residence of certain pro-
nounced temperance man was burned, and
among the ruins was found one of these
internal machines.
1t would seem that some steps should
be taken to bring to judgment men who
are concerned in such business, either in
manufacturing the machines or employing
them after they are manufactured.

A correspondent of the Peoria Democrat,
writing from Chilicothe in that county
say; "A prominent member of the Irish
revolutionary party has been in this place
for several days gathering potato bugs

w ausr for Fuel.

Information reaches us from New York that the actual decomposition of the two ele- ments which compose water has been arrived at by an ingenious process which bids fair to revolutionize existing methods of railway locomotion, and the applications of which are likely t. be very numerous and useful. If water can be utilized as fuel, d great ad- vantage will be gained over the coal dealers Water IS chemical combination of hydro gen and oxygen, the former being combusti- ble and the latter a supporter of combustion, and yet water IS everywhere Used to quench fires instead of kjndlnlg it. Of course the burning of water might HitvIieIe somewhat with our proposed Irrigation scheme. Yet if we could use just enough of this kind O. fuel to put coal down to four or five dollars Der ton, we woal1 look forward to the ap- proach of winter "ita some degree of pleas ure.

The Question of Governor.

The following extract we clip from the Tucson Journal. It is sensible and worthy of notice:
 One or two of the newspapers may agree on che man for the position, but the residue are divided and distracted between the claims of conflicting sspirants. What IS the Government or the appointing power to de iu case of this sort! Certainly not listen Co the recommendation of one and reject all the others, nor take a petition that has been quietly circulated and to which the signatures of men, who neither knew nor cared who was or might be Governor, had been obtained.
 The Journal has heretofore made sug- yestion which as far AS We have seen, has met with the acquiescence of the Territorial press. The resignation inf General Fremont ina. been rendered long since. We arewith- out a Governor. though we have an acting one. but we want one d<J0Tt. We can effect the appointment of such by calling meetings of citizens in all the more populous and OuSllleSS Bl tue ltAiiNOA.' @N' the people say who shall rule over them. In Pheni1, Globe. Florence, Tombstone, Tucson and any and every other place of any importance, let a ballot be held and the result of it determine who IS our choice. We believe the Government would listen to our application thus presented.
 So far ss circulating petitions privately, we do not know ei its having been done, except in the ..e Df GoSli.r. "ho took his petitions from North [" sluth, and even oe- fore General Fremont resi- aied he was seek ing signAtures for said petlti"n, winch Was ar-fetched, and certainly n bad taste.

A B. BacSmailer EntTsppsd.

4 New York dispatch of Nov. l4th says that Jay Gould has been receiving anony- nous letters to the effect that the writer ln- tended to kill him for the benefit of the community; also demanding his assistance in stock specalations. The writer was trapped by detectives and proved to be Col. i. Howard Welles, an educated and respect able gentleman, about 50 years of age, but of an excessively nervous disposition.
 Col. J. Howard Welles, many years ago, was a resident of Tucson, and connected with some old newspaper in the ancient and respectable pueblo. He left Tucson in the Fall of 1859, and started for the States osten,iiSv to kill Vim. II. Seward.
