The wide awFhe buSlueSS men Ol AIbunuarayae are evidently alive tC the fact that now Is the time fol them to stre tch out and capture the vast trade of the northern portion oi this territory, which has heretofore been controlled by San Francisco merchants exclusively. And unless one has been a resident here no con ception can be formed of the magni tude of the trade of this county alone. In fact we need everything and more so now than at any time during the past ten years, for in consequence of the near approach of the railroad our merchants, as arule, have let their stocks run down in the hope of being able to replenish them in the east at lower rates; our citi- zens have been buying only what has been actually necessary in the last year or two, knowing that when the cars reached here they could save from twenty-five to one hun dred per cent. on every purchase; our miners and mine owners have delayed opening up and working their mines, knowing that when the whistle of the locomotive was heard in the Wallapai Valley they could save fifty per cent on steel, iron, powder and mining timbers. The time has now arrived when all the vast trade, this accumulated trade of years we may say, must go to a new ID arket. And the great question with merchants here now is, where shall that market be? We answer it will be either Albuquerque, Kansas City, St. Louis or Chicag, and which of these cities will get the most of it depends entirely on the enterprise of Its merchants. Albuquerque of course has the advantage in being nearest to us, and for time will naturally get the most of the trade, but in or der to hold 1t they will have to un- dersell their eastern neighbors and San Francisco merchants as well. Whether Albuquerque merchants will be able to hold their own with their more powerful competitors re mains to be proven; we hope that they will, for the nearer our source Of supply Is the better it will be for us. Nor do we expect that San Francisco merchants will be idle in the meantime, fer just as soon as the railroad connection Is made at the river we shall have San Francisco drummers among US by the score who will be prepared to cut prices to | almost any extent rather than lose the lucrative trade of Mohave coun- ty Our trade is now open 10 that market which will supply us with
 NGds at the cheapest rates. i

 .s La Mo; March 9.-The
 Dehloerat correspondent, who seached Helena yesterday from Mem -pfIis, by- eteer4aoa,, gives the following view of the situation. There are not more than two or three spots of dry ground between Memphis and this point, and scores of the best farms in Arkansas and Mississippi are in a complete state of wreck and aban- doned in many places. Cattle stand ing in the water. Overflowing plat forms, and almost every gin house is filled with colored people. At Hor- butts landing eighteen colored men and women in two boats moored to a tree on the flooded bank, waiting for a steamboat to take them away. Not a foot of dry land in forty. miles. Skiff loads of colored people and their household goods are at various points seeking for ground to rest on. At Sterling colored people, horses and cattle are huddled in the upper story of the only store there. Most fences and houses along the river are stlll intact, though many have foated away. At Star landing dwellings full of cattle and gin houses full of negroes. Capt. Thorweign, Of Chat eau, thinks there may be unprece dented high water between Vicks- burg and New Orleans. The bridge and trestle over Ccssados lake on the Iron Mountain railroad, one mile west of here, discovered to be afoat tonight from the back waters com ing from the levee below. This will cut Helena from railroad communi- cation, as railroad men say it will be impossible to get trains out until the water subsidies.

There was considerable excitement in
 this place on Saturday night and yester-
 day when 1t become known that the Southern Pacific train had been robbed near Gage station on Saturday after noon. But the full details of the rob- bery did not reach this place until Sun day morning, when a CITIZEN special brought full account of the robbery. It is believed that the ranch ComOn, at San Bernardino, which lies southwest of Deming, near the Sonora line, is the headquarters for large band of Ameri- can and Mexican outlaws. From par ties who were or the train at The time the robbery took place We learn that the robbers were disguised by placing a light cloth over their faces.
 It is understood that the 5. r. B, R. Co. will pay a reward of S1,OOO g head for the capture of the robbers; Wells, Fargo < Go. will pay the same, and 1t is be- lieved thatth Governor of New Mexico will add another Sl,0O0, which will be S3,000 on the head of each member of the band. A large force have gone out from DemIng in search of the robbers; also a number from Castle Rock, on the Arizona and Mexico railroad. and [. $. troops from Fort Bayard, New Mexico, and from Fort Huachuca and Camp Grant, Arizona. A number of detectives are also on the ground, and it looks as though every thing has heen done that can be to capture the robbers.
 We learn that the exact amount taken from Wells, Fargo's express was S700; conductor Vail lost his watch and SlO0 in money. About dozen shots were fired at the mail and express cars.

A MALICIOUS sLANpEg.

Judge Hoover, who once upon time was chief justlce of ArIzona, is now chief waiter in a restaurant ID southern Cali fornIa. Judge Satterwhite, also from Arizona, is now doing tiuker's jobs for a living.
 The above item appeared under the head of Personal" in The Day, an evening paper published in Baltimore. It is false from beginning 10 end; there is not a single word Of truth in 1t. Ex- Judge Hoover is a member of the repu- table law firm of Hereford, Hoover & Lowell. Of this city, which firm IS doing A large and lucrative law practice throughout Arizona, and stands well both at home and abroad. The creature who penned the above item knew that It was false-that it was mean, low, con- temptibIe and malicious. It was made for the purpose of iniuring the god name of ex-JudRe Hoover, but 1t will fall short of the mark.
 As to Mir. Satterwhite, he never was 8 judge iu Arizona, but the statements as to the business followed by him are also false.
 The creature, or thing, who deliber- ately circulates such a report, for the purpose of injuring reputable citizens is beneath the notice of men, and IS strong argument in favor of the laws ci evolution, and proves beyond a doubt that We still have few beings on earth who, while they possess the form Of hu' man beings. have none of the attributes nf mankind.
