 Correspondence of the Epitaph
 A few days since gentleman who has . saw mill and has been cutting lumber on the other side of thu Huachucas met with some of the peculiar courtesies of our "sis- ter republic" It appears that he dug and built wagon road to deliver his lumber at Bisbee. The exact location of the Senora line at that point is not certainly known, but our Andalusian friends clam that for q short distence around a certain point it passes over the sacred soil belon ging to the descendants of Sancho Panza, or some other man. However, the parties had hauld their lumber over it for long time and concluding to move around into Ramsey's canyon proceeded to load up and proceed cd along their own road and on arriving at the point which the half-breeds claimed was in Sonora, they descended on them, took their teams, wagons and mill, and without the semblancs of a trial fined the owners $1 900 and the parties were obliged to raise that amount of bail of a quality to satisfy the saddle-colored officials, and the case is now pending in the Mexican Court, where, when an American has a case, he may as we'll write over the door, Dante's well known inscription, "He who enters here leaves hope behind" It is believed by those who have had experience, that if the authorities at Waship gtop who asten to avow their kindly feeling for the Mexican Government, and lick the dust frem their shoes, were to have any dealings with these fellows, they might change thelr course a little. They are the same fellows who have such a sympathy for the noble red man." but none for the host of massacred inrocents who have fallen victims to the devilish instincts of an inferior race. But those chaps always go where there is something in it." Well, the American people are long suffering, but there is some danger that they will take look at things themselves, and call for reckoning with their masters. Perhaps the average American mind will sometime be able to see beyond the bloody shirt" and the sanctimonions twaddle of the truly loil, and take a view of the worst den of cor ruptlon in the world, not excepting the cheerful scene in Egypt, where they dare come out and favor their own works
 The monOpolies appear to have started in to control things already. Our honora. ble Board of Supervisors, sittiug as wax in their hands, reduce their assessments to point which is ridIculously low, while doubling or trebling the amounts, many of them too large at first, of the poor mans cabin and the prospector's improvement The fervent ejaculation, How long, oh Lord," inyolunt.rily rises to the lips of the sufferers Let us look well to the com- plexien of our next members of the legis' lature and regulate those institutions be- fore they get death grip on the Terrlrory. We want men of brains, men of nerve, and men of ofunpurchasable integrity.
 There is dearth of local news A few nights ago couple of men, with the repu. tatlon of being handy with their pistols" got little inclined to the opinion that they would run the town, but Deputy Sheriff Mcdowell by little strategy, exc cuted flank movement oM their fortress and brought them out. After giving them one of his mid and euphonious repri- mands, bade them "go and sin no more" As consequence, the places that knew then docs not seem to kuow them now
