In view OF the prominence which
is being given to Guaymas and
Mazatlan by the extension Of the
Southern Pacific Railway to those
cities. there may be question as
to how San Diego and Wilraington
will be effected thereby. We think
that there will be little il any diff.
ference 10 our Southern California
ports, no matter how far the South
ern Pacific may be carried towards
the heart of Mexico. Unless the
project shall also embrace a rail-
wsy across the continent on Mexi-
can soil to some such point as Mat
agorda Bay, on the Atlantic Coast,
the shortest line from tide water on
one eide of the continent to tide
water on the other, in easy reach
OF American or Asiatic commerce,
will always be found to lie some-
where between the thirty.fifth and
thirty-second parallels of north
latitude. AS to the Asiatic trade, the
preferred courses for vessels engaged
In 1t vacillate between the ex-
treme northern route and one about
two degrees south Of San Diego. To
make the i'm mense detour of the
peninsula Of Lower California in
order to reach Guaymas or Mazat-
Ian is what no sane merchant or
ssa-faring man will ever think of
for q moment. On the other hand,
q railway connection between
Yuma and Sonora and Sinaloa is
quite likely to open up a market
for many Of our soil products, corn
amongst them. Our wines and
brandies, bacon and -four ought
also TO be in demand in that Sec
ton. On the whole, we look for de.
cldedly beneficial results from the
Sonora and Sinaloa connection.

The heraldic dress at Queen Vic.

has been SO much talked about,
was worn by Lady Archibald
Campbell. 1t was the fret instance
since the fifteenth century of a
lady appearing alta court ceremony
with her heraldic cognizances form
ing the trimming of her dress. The
dress was black velvet, with silver
gray satin train. A gibeciere peck.
ct, shaped like a shield, was EN-.
blazoned with the quarterings of
Argyll-Campbells and the Callan-
ders of Ardkinglas and Craigsforth,
In the proper heraldic tints. This
pocket contained the handkerchief,
and was supported by band COM
posed Of small shields on black
velvet, Joined together by gold
Gaelic knots. Each shield bore the
same quarterings as those on the
satchei. Band, satchel and train
were fastened to the dress by
means Of badges of the fish and
bog myrtle. On the train was EN-.
broidered the coat of arms Of the
Argyll.Campbells, the shield being
five feet long. Above it was the
wild boar's head, and beneath was
the motto, mo Obliviscaris," in
black letters on gray scroll. Even
the black satin slippers bore the
device of the shield in silver.

The Rooski Courier, which we

fishes the following intelligence
from Yenesaisk, q town in mid
Siberia: "'Again political exiles

are in q most respondent state.
Only yesterday a girl named Pa.

commit suicide by eating lucifer
matches. She was saved by q

but will rescue always be at hand?
We Siberians have seen many ex-
lies during our life, but we have
never seen such grlef-such hope.

nine exiles, who do not know their

they are exiled for,and where their

vict knows what he is transported
for; his term of i'm Imprisonment IL

DIR. BUSH, who has just returned
from an inspection of the zapato
mine, generally known as the old
Winston mine, which is located
but . trif1lng distance from Los
Angeles, informs US that it is real
~ . very rich vein of silver ore,
some of it assaying upwards OF
$1,000 to the ton. On the principle
that far fields are green, many of
our people rush off to Inyo and
Mono counties, California, and to
Arizona, Sonora and New Mexico,
to do their prospecting. 1t would
be q curious thing ii, some years
hence, when our capitalists think
1t worth while to develop their To-
cal resources, It should be proven
that very rich and valuable mines
have been lying perdu under our

A Rifle Bullets Course.

While engaged in testing arms
at the Winchester Arms Works in
New Haven recently, a cartridge
which had missed fire exploded
while O workman was trying to re.
move it. The rifle barrel was
pointed toward rack filled with
gun-si cks and the bullet crash ed
through tho rack, first passing
through a seven.eights board, then
q half-inch board, then q black
walnut stock an inch and a half
thick, and then through another
seyen-eights board. George r.
Whiting was at work on lathe di.
rectly in the course OF the bullet,
which grazed the top Of his head,
drawing blood. He was q dozen
feet from Newhall, and some six
feet beyond him, William Hall, q
man nearly fifty years of age, sat
upon high stool at work. The
bullet, after passing through Whit
ing's hair, struck Hall in the back,

It related Of the late Col. Thomas
A. Scott that once, about ten
years ago, when making one of the
swift trips which he was in the
habit Of making over the lines un.
der his control, his train was
stopped by the wreck Of a freight
train. There were q dozen heavily
loaded box cars piled up on the
road, and it would take long
time to get succ0r from the nearest
accessible point, and probably
hours more to get the track cleared
by mere force of labor. He sur
veyed the difficulty, made q rough
calculation Of the cost of total de.
struction Of the freight, and
promptly made up his mind to
burn the road clear. BY the time
the relief train came the flames
had done their work, and nothing
remained but to patch up few iu.
juries done to the track, so 40 to
enable him to pursue his way.

"politics, and gives blows as well

fans who know the history Of their
"party, felt that he was one OF
"thelr very foremost men, and did

IL true, every word Of it, and
1t simply shows that Republicans,
like Republics, are ungrateful.
Roscoe Conkling, Invested Of the
ability to bestow office, ia still the
same man of genius and eloquence
he always was, but he finds the
vulgar herd of politicians and
placemen dropping away f.om him
on every hand. While we have
steadily believed that If Conkling
had not made up bis mind
to retire to private life and
the practice OF his profession,
he should not have resigned,
an error of judgment should not be
q bar against the just claims of any
man. The lives of the most illus.
trious men of all countries are full
of plumbers. Disraeli, for instance,
crowded his earlier years with
them, and when he died there was
grave suspicion that his later years
were not without gross mistakes,
yet neither in nor out of office did
he for moment lose the confidence
and loyal support of his party. A
concerted effort is now being made
to belittle Mr.. Conkling in Repub.
lican journals which, a few weeks
ago, exhausted the language OF
eulogy in his praise. The New
York agent of the Associated Press

ally commit a foolish act, but it Is
not prepared to accept him as a
downright fool and blackguard at
the instance of these sheets. The
conversation represented to have
taken place between Conkling and
Lawrence, in which the Chief of
the Stalwarts avowed himself, in
certain contingencies, an aspirapt
for the Democratic Presidential
nomination in 1884, ia too silly to
be seriously discussed. 1t is an in
vention out of whole cloth and one
of entirely too cheap . character to
have been suffered to attain the
publicity given it by the Associated
Press. Conkling's chances for re-
election look desperate on the sur
face. AS o betting proposition
twenty to one would express the
average opinion of his chances;
but, in the final outcome, we be-
lieve he will win in his fight with
Garfield and Blaine. 1t is a regu.
