IF the Democratic press can make any capital out of impugning tbe motives of the CITIZEN because 1t refuses to play the roper-iu for the bunko steerers, rob- bers and cut throats who infest certain portions of our country, they are vel come to 1t. This paper proposes to pur- sue a course which has a tendency to rid the Territory of this curse rather than allure more victims. There are sections of this Territory iu which life and property are secure, but we regret to say there are others where they are not, and where under the present man agement oflocaliafTairs they are not likely to become safe. When the CITIZEN IS satisfied that these causes of danger have been removed, it will advise the public and invite immigration. IL Is much better for the permanent prosper ity of Arizona that people should not come here and be robbed and murdered. It is the crimes not, the publication and denunciation of them which keep out immigration and capital, and the paper which, through cowariice or interest, neglects to do its duty in denouncing the infamous crimes which have been perpetrated and the incompetency of the officers charged with their punishment makes itself particeps criminis and IS unworthy of public confidence.

Ths Best Gymnasium for Girls.

The exerclse that is best adapted to develop all parts of the body in a nat ural, healthy manner, IS domestic labor It is always at hand, it can be taken regularly every day, and there IS such variety that almost every muscle can be exercised. HOusework should never be considered menial or degrading; 1t Is natures laboratory, in which the girl may obtain not only the best physical development, but most valuable know ledge that will fit her for the practical duties of life. This training may be supplemented by other kinds of exercise, such as walking and outdoor sports The very general introduction of foreign help into domestic service has proved most unfortunate for the health of American women. Closely connected with this neglect of physical train ing at home IS an evil of great magnitude that is, supreme devotion to brain work. The practice pursued very generally at the present day of con fining the girl in school or seminary for a series of years consecutively is attend ed with the most serious evils. In the language of a popular writer. "It is educating our girls to death" While we should not discard education in all its various departments, extending to the highest culture, we maintain that 1t IS no advantage or blessing if it is to be obtained at the expense of the physical system. There are other parts of the body besides the brain that need faith ful training The highest accomplish ments and mental acquisitions will not compensate for impaired constitution and poor health.

will soon arrive. This department will be very complete and mining machinery will occupy large space.
 Invitations have been sent to the Gov ernors of States and Territories request ing them to appoint commissioners who will see that their citizens are properly represented in the list of exhibitors. The Governors of Wyoming and New Mexico show q lively interest in the enterprise and have announced their purpose to have their respective Territories well represented. The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway, as usual, are alive to theimportance of the occasion and prom ise an interesting exhibit gathered from points along their line.
 What is being done in Arizora? Dis tance is nothing. The Territory should be here in force. Investors will be here from the East by the thousands, and will look to the exposition as guide for them. Tho opportunity should not be neglected. Arizona ores should occupy the prominence they deserve, and be a standing advertisement of the resources of the Territory. Everyone should feel interested and see that his particular locality sbqres in the glory of the great expositi C, A.

A MINING EXPOSITION

Preparations for the Grand Event in Denver
 Progress Of tas Buildings Shou Id be
 Represented.
 Special correspondent of the CITIZEN.
 DENVER, CoLo., May 10th, 'S2.-The Mining Exposition has long since ceased to be a problematical matter, and has become one of the certainties in the near future. Since the corner stone of the building was laid early last week re- newed interest has been awakened, and to-day nearly every mining camp in Col orado, as well as a large number in Wy oming, Utah and New Mexico, are busily engaged with their preliminary arrange ments to put their ores before the world in the exposition building next August. In this State meetings have been held and working committees appointed, to collect exhibits and prepare for a dis play. In some the committees will gather ores, game, agricultural products and everything else native to thelneigh- borhood. The building IS going up rap idly.

When the corner stone was laid last week the walls of the south wing were nearly to the tops of the windows.

Indian Atrocities.

Mir. Thomas Newland. wife and family arrived here last Monday. Their trip from the Gila in a wagon, which occupied several days tune, was attended with horrible circumstances. One evening they camped on one side of a huge ledge of rocks, while the Indians camp fire burn- cd brightly on the other. The light could be distinctly seen and the voices Of the tiendS were heard glOatlng over their cruel and inhuman deeds. The next day Mir. Newland and family buried many victims found along the road. IL was terrible experience for Mrs. New land. At one place they came upon scene that for horrible atrOcity could scarcely be egualed. The buildings had been burned to the ground, and strewn over the place were the terribly mutilat- ed bodies of those who had occupied the house. The body of a woman was seen friChtfully mangled lying beside the road The inhuman devils not satisfied with brutally oUtraging her person, had crushed m her skull with rocks, and 30 distigured her face with knife cuts that her features could not be recognized by her most intimate friends. Mir. Newland does not believe that he cares to try farming again in that locality. It Is a wonder they were not all crazed by the appalling sights they witnessed. He went from hare to the Huachuca mCun- tains to try and find some stock which had been run off by the Indians.-lDos Cabesas Gold Note.

\ Ieetle Late.

When the ol excitement was at it3 height hundreds ot Ohio farmers drilled wells in search oI the liquid for tune, and ln very few cases the farmer came out ahead of expenses. One 0s the poorest farnfs in Medina couRty Was owned by Elder Smith, who kept the even tenor of his way and looked upon tle excitement as Ungodly. One night some of the boys emptied barrel of oil into a spring on the elders farm, and within a day or two, by the help Of'l stranger, there was great hue and cry. The stranger called upon the elder and offered him S5.OOG for his farm-then S1OO0O-thon S20.OOO, and finally asked him if he would take S35,0O0 cash down. The farm was worth about $500, and speculation was ungOdly, but the elder replied to all offers:
 '-I will wait and consult the Lord in prayer
 In three or four days the sell was dis covered, and then some one asked the cider if he wasn't sorry Ee had refused the offer ot S}j.G00.
 Well, I don't want to say I'm sorry. he calmly replied, 'bUt I'll admit that it the Lord hadn't been a leetle late in ans wering my prayers ] might have gone to York State on a visit this summer ,"

TIE SITUATION N cocHrsP counry-

THE SITUATION IN CDCHISE COUNTY.
 The measures inaugurated by Gov
 Tritle for restoring peace and quiet have
 at least produced some outward results
 For two years crime has run riot in Co., l chise county and the local authorities
 have made themselves chiefly conspicu-
 ous by theii utter failure to furnish pro-
 lection 10 life or property, their petty
 luarr Is and the alliances they have formed with the enemies of peace and good order for the purpose of perpetua- ting themselves in office. They have expended money lavishly but it has been for personal rather than public purposes.
 The money that has been wasted by the
 Sheriff of Cochise county, had 1t been legitimately and honestly used would
 have made that county as quiet and or leriy as a stand New England town. There is DO excuse that can be offered
 for the state of affairs which have exist
 ed in Cochise county that does not re-
 fleet discredit upon the local authorities.
 The climax of crimes which compelled
 the Governor of the territory to step in to secure some guarantee of safety to the property and lives of respectable
 citizens was but the culmination of two years of mlsrule. Without public funds
 of any description at his command, the
 Governors steps have resulted ill few
 weeks of pesce and freedom from crime, such as Cochise county could not have hoped for with her present
 local administration. The funds that the Governor has used with such good
 results were furnished by law abiding citiz ns who desired some relief from
 the terrible apprehension of impending
 danger with which they have been sur rounded. It was small indeed con- pared with the immense amount of public money that has been worse than
 wasted by the county peace officers for they have thereby rather fostered than suppressed crime.
 We are not foolish enough to con gratulate ourselves that condition ap- proximating to the millennium has been established. Such is not to be expected. The class of population that has given the trouble never reforms and become peaceable members O. society. They either make way for the progress of civilization by seeking fresh fields or outlaws graves. They still remain and that they are now SO quiet is because a ! large portion of the country has been so thoroughly plundered that 1t is well nigh depopulated and there IS now q force of men in service for the express purpose of bringing them to justice. How long it will be possible to keep this guarantee Of protection without the aid of public funds, We do not know. The brief tsial We have had of the Governors plan Is enough to convince the most skeptical of its serviceabIhty ] and some means should be provided for its continuance.
 The experience of the past leads us to entertain grave fears for tbe result should that section again be left to the tender mercies of the cowboys.

How Mineral Veins arc Formed and
 Filled.

It is stated that the theory of sedi- mentary precipitation in water Is the one adopted by Weiser. This theory Is, that all mineral in the gold. silver, copper, zinc, lead, iron, and all other metals were at some remote period, III a state of solution. The theory, the reasoning of which we are condensing from the Professors communication, IS based upon certain facts. First, as Is well known, the water of the sea now holds Tn solution more gold and silver than are found on the dry land. Prof. Smith, of the London University, says that every ton of water on the globe contains from one to two grains of gold. Now, when the crust of the earth was very thin and the heat Of the internal fires very great, and the seas and lakes perhaps in boil ing condition, the minerals were held in solution by the water. As the cooling process went on these were deposited, together with calcite, felcite, quartzite, spar and other gangue material at the bottom of the ponds, lakes and seas, re- duced to oxides, carbOnates, sulphurets, etc, by natural chemical process, and af- terward brought tO a metallic state by heat. The dry land upheavals were go- ing on during long ages. The various deposits took place, not simultaneously, but gradually and at different periods. When the metamorphic age poured the melted rock material out of the drained lakes and seas, metallic veins were formed and their contents covered up often hundreds of feet under solid rocks. Then the pent mp fires of the interior earth broke through the thicker crust, and threw up the mountain ranges just as we see them to-day, with their veins of gold. silver and other metals. The depth of the vein will be graduated by the extent and depth of the lakes or seas in winch they were formed. This ac- counts for the fact, that all true Assure veins must have rocks of different kinds on different sides. If the Assures had been made by shrinking of the rock in cooling, they would of course be the same on both sides of the vein.
 This is a brief analysis of the aquaeous theory, which IS given to aid in forming correct theories, ani with them, correct methods O. observation in both the dis cOvery and working of mines.-Ex.

Stage Robbers Arrested.

iPhwulX Herald.
 The parties implicated in the attempt cd robbery of the Vulture stage last Wednesday evening were without dOubt Nelson and Miller, two miners who were employed at the Nulture mine. Nelson was paid off on the 9th ult and disap- peared shortly after; Miller Was paid oil on the 1th, when he also disappeared. At the same time box of giaut powder was missed, and also some wire rope from the shaft where Miller worked. On Wednesday evening, the 10th. as the stage was two miles from Seymour on its way to Nulture, the horses came sud- denly tO a stand still. NIT. Liggett who was on board got off t0 see what was the matter, and found a wire rope stretched across the road. The driver, Al. Liver more, called to him to step on the rope so as to allow the stage to pass, which he did and as the stage passed, two shots were fired. Just before the shots, some one called out iu a German accent Jump out % The voice was exactly like NeIsOn's. The next morning at the point where the stage was stopped, the road was strewn with giant cartridges. NIT. Louis Vidal. the Constable at Vulture City. succeeded in trailing up Nelson the next morning He took him in and brought him back to Vulture, where he now lies m jail awaiting trial.
 The man Miller, who was thought to have been implicated with Nelson in the attempt to rob the NUlture stage, was arrested this afternoon in Phenix. + seems that Nelson has owned up to his ruilt and tOll fine authorities at Nuiture that Miller was with hIm. A telegram to that effect reached here at one o'clock, and Miller, who was recognized by one one of our citizens. was arrested and lodged in jail. He claims to have been out prospecting
 RumOr says that Nelson is an old hand at the road agent business and IS wanted elsewhere.

rrOspeetors, C1slIes in ihe Air.

It Is at this season that the old forty

 when, as Is the case this season, there | has been a great fali of snow, and water will be tumbling down every ravine. He probably did not think much about the spot when he was on the ground probably dld not prospect 1t at all-but
 as soon as he was out of reach of it tue

 yeast in batch of dough, and time,

 The chances are that not one in ten of the ancient miners could go within a mile of the places they dream of, and even though they should reach the very spot, the ground would doubtless be found so torn up and dug over that an angel frourthe realms above could not recognize it.

DUBLIN, May ~. "TO the Irish people and all lovers of
 liberty, and particularly our brothers
 of the Irish Republican Band and
 kindred organizations:
 As there seems to be a grave misuB- derstanding as to the aim and scope of the late executions at Dublin, we, the executives of the Irish Republican Brotherhood, hereby request all afore- said to withhold their opinion of this matter for the present and to refrain from expressing sympathy at public meetings which tended to humiliate Ire land, and give aid and comfort to Eng land. As to Burke, he had preyed upon the lives aud liberties of his countrymen for many years, and had deserved death thousand times at our hands, and as to Lord Frederick Cavendish, his lineal descent is infamous. This organization has tolerated the vagaries of Parnell until he has filled the bastiles of our country with the victims of useless Parliamentary agitation, which has driven millions of the flower of our people to exile. This ceases to be harmless when a truce IS made, by which he himself and his friends are allowed to go free; and eighty of Ire lands bravest sons are left to lsnguish in prison, to be exiled or assassinated. If England really wished to deal fairly by, Ireland, why not issue general amnesty, by which the prison doors would be opened and thousands of our exlled brethren who now pine m foreign lands could return in safety and honor? Instead of this Gladstone sent emisaries to the venerated head of the Catholic church, who, by lies and false representa- tions, have deprived thousands of our poor people of the comforts of religion by turning our altar into political plat forms. Let us ask the people of Ire land, are there no classes of people to be considered except farmers, and of what avail will it be to Ireland if selfish class is firmly rooted in the soil and be- comes then thoroughly loyal to England? {? We ask our friends in America to ponder npon our despoiled circum- stances: to think of the brave aud honor able people driven to'despair by witness ing the white bOsOms of fOur women tern open by the bayonets of the English merceRaries, and our children of tender years shot down in highways, while our walls of anguish are stifled in blood. We are convinced no true prosperity can ex- ist in Ireland so long as England pos sesses her custom houses there, and al- lowing her manufacturers to pass goods into Ireland duty free. thereby leaving our Irish mechanIcs unemployed and the enormous ware tribute exacted by England, taking away the product of the land. thereby forcing the Irish people to starve.
 Now, furthermore, we callupon all our brothers in America, particularly the ad- vanced Nationalists, to aid, by every means within their power, men who have carried out this execution and We hereby further declare they deserve we'll of their country.
 By order of the Executive of the I. R. R"
