 THB BooM OF THE LIME KILL CLUB.- After the meeting had been called to or der, Brother Gardner made brief speech, in which he reviewed the progress of the club It was organized with seven men and dog. It now numbered 3O94 mem bers and over 2O0O canines. The first weekly collection footed up cents and 8 peck of nails and buttons. The last amounted to SIS in clear cash. The club had $992 in the treasury, owned the most valuable museum in America, and it's li- brary was second to none in the state. Its deliberations were given the preference over the proceedings of congress, and it's decisions were acknowledged ahead of all courts. During the past year, 380 mem- bers had been made, four had died Par adise Hall had been broken into and Sir Isaac Walpole had received 8 letter threat ening his life. The club was on sound basis, asked no favors of the Concord school of philosophy, and another year would probably witness the building,of hall in which to hold their meetings
 The election was then proceeded with, and resulted as follows: President, Bro. Gardner :; first vice president, Snowbal] Shpback second vice-president, Judge Cantelope grand secretary, Waydown Bee. be; treasurer, Giveadam Jones. Several candidates were initiated in the 33d de gree.-Detroit Free EEsa.

Anecdotes of the late Jeremiah Black multiply rapidly. Gov. Porter of Indiana tells of Judge Blacks experience in the war. Wandering within the rebel lines the judge WAS taken prisoner. "What IS this war about ?' he asked of private. ''They tell me-" the soldier replied. 'that we have some rights we haven't got, and if we haven't got them we want them. '' This specimen of rebel reasoning gratitied the keen lawyer immensely, for it traves- tied the arguments which he had combat ed

Two negroes in Philadelphia were very much surprised the other day. They were in the bolton of well which they were en- gagged in digging, peacefully eating their lunch, when they noticed thin cloud of steam coming out of rift in the esrth fol lowed by stream of water. The water was boiling hot and before they kney 1t their toes were scalding. With the horri- fed exclamation, s Foh de Lord, what am de mattah wid dis watah ?" they wildly clambered out of the well which the could not be induced to enter again. The OK planation of the mystery is that near the we'll was hole in which the boiler of a large engine was blown of, and the hot water trickled throug loose vein of earth into the we'll. = ..& M&.1

 We have been fer the past month affording to the balance of tn e Territory, as well as to the Pa eific coast, a scene remarkable for its shades of rascality, imbe- cility and corruption. A gang of men, without reputation, means or standing, have made an On- slanght on a popular decision made by the people of the coun- ty, and by fraud, perjury and probably bribery, induced an up- right judge to set aside the will Of the people. Of whom does

The Courier objects to the SENTINEL. That's tough on us. It'intimates that our style is not pure. Well, Marion ought to be as we'll posted as any man in the territory. The last time he paid his respects to Pat Hamilton he demonstrated his own practical knowledge. The Courier also wants the Yuma and Ehrenberg road investigated. We are just as anxious. Messrs. Frank, Pol hamus and Crawford are not in the habit of stealing from the Territory, and do not fear inves- tigation. They have made their report and have returned a resi- due, into the treasury-which is more than any Yavapai road commission has ever done. That cOunty has received more aid for road purposes than any county in Arizona. Why not investigate some of them?

Activity prevails in all branches Of
trade, though in some articles an over
supply has weakened values to a con-
siderable extent. Meats are about as
at last report, and though some claim
that it ought to be quoted higher, yet
we have dsalers here who are selling
below prices herewith given. Flour
is firmer, though no advance has been
realized. Cornmeal Is quiet, and tends
toward cheapness. Corn is quoted
lower for round lots, and the demand
is fully supplied by the offerings. Oats
continue in heavy Offering and at low
or figures. Bran is quiet, and hay firm,
with no urgent demand. The market
is over supplied with potatoes, the re-
ceipts within week reaching nearly
1000 bbls, and large consignments have
been stored to await a better demand
as buyers and sellers are too far apart
TO effect transactions with any degree
Of satisfaction. The only kind al
present meeting favor is choice, vel
packed qualities, aud small bbls, OF
inferior stock is neglected. In apples
the demand is good for good qualities
The receipts have been liberal, bu
not in excess Of the demand, excep
for inferior qualities. The poultry
and game market is weak, and chick
ems are especially stagnant, owing Z
heavy offerings, many being In stall
order. Eggs hold up quite well ,thougl
they are quoted irregular. ''
