PIcachO Peak

This queer shaped mountain is 4t
 miles northwest of Tucson. It is a
 we'll known land mark because be-
 ing near the railroad. Wm. Atkin-
 son writes about it: We are now
 camped near the base of Picacho
 Peak. It is long mountain whose
 base is about six miles ID diameter
 and is nearly 5000 feet high. A
 party of us made the ascent of thi+
 mouniain yesterday and found many objects of interest. The ascent can be made from only two points.
 At the base on the north side we found an artificial tank or lake of wa:er of about an acre in extent !; the bolt m and sides of flat stones laid closely together and the joints cemcnted. The lake is oval in shape and the water in the cenier about nlne feet deep. Paths made by deer and other wild game lead to il from every direction.
 At the top we found more pottery and several towers of stone eight or len feet high, with caps of stone projecting and smaller tower above the cap. The ruins of what appears to oe an amphitheater, with seats of stone are found at the top and close by the towers. The whole appears to be very ancient. From the sums init we get a glorious and extended view. Looking north we see Inc mountains in Utah, less than fifty miles away. To the north west we trace the Colorado river not by any depression, hut by the high ridge or extensive mesas through which it cuts its way through walls of sand stone mile high. Beyond, we sec the mountains of Nevada, and west and southwest the blue and misty hills of California. The Picacho Peak is probably the finest point of observation in Arizona
 It is is about as high as Mt. "Bill Williams,'' forty miles further east, but as it is isol lted from other mountains there is nothing to ob> struct the view. At many high points all through this country are ancient forts of stone, some of them of considerable size and of great s'ren rth. Onr last camp was at the confluence Of two canyons where there were sev ral large tanks of good water and easily approached from one side. Upon the bluff are two ancient forts of stone commando ing both canyons and the water. Directly over one large tank of wa- ter the smooth face of the rocks are covered with hiero oslyphies, some painted, some chiseled, representing all sorts of figures and birds, beasts and men. Br ken pottery is found in nearly every locality, but gener- ally near these cd forts or at the foot of slope on the edge of some pretty valley where there are no other evidences that man ever exist, ei. All of the pieces of pottery have found twenty miles south of this point are of clay and are com mon, and what is found near here is stoneware of fire texture, but all show more or less ornamentalion.- Citizen.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-There k the best authority for saying the Washington Capitol, which proies- sed to give President Arthnr's views was produced without information from him.

trate; 'and consider yourself under arrest
for obtaining money under false pretenses."
This is the law and the enforcement of it in
Brazil
And lay 1t down rs the law here, that il
any one is induced to go to any theatre by
the bills, and does not find in that theatre all
that is advertised on the bills, he can demand
and must receive back his money any time.
And not only that, but it is his right, his
duty, to have the swindling manager arrested
and punished for obtaining money under
false pretenses. This is "a remedy 1 earnestly

New York Cor. Troy Times.
The changes of life, however, were soon
felt in Greeley's little circle. Miss Fuller
went to Italy and witnessed the capture OF
Rome by the French, while Greeley's family
was visited by cholera, which carried Off that
lovely boy. Greeley thus mentioned this be.
reavement in one of his letters to his former
contributor; "Ah, Margaret, tho world is
growing dark around us, You mourn that
Rome has fallen; wo mourn, for Pickle is
dead" Greeley then abandoned this
blighted spot, and as tho Harlem road
had been sufficiently extended he
bought in 1855 building lot just large enough
for a house, being determined to test the
place before charging his purchase. Finding
it botk convenient and healthy, he gradually
increased his domain until instead of the
original one-eighth of an acre it included
seventy eight acres, being the largest farm
ever worked by a New York editor. Most of
Greeley's improvements were chimerical. He
built a dam, for instance, in order to supply
the house wi, h water. After 81 600 had been
thus invested the dam broke and the scheme
was abandoned. Sixty thousand dollars
were invested in improvements, and yet the
farm to-day is not worth one third OF that
sum.

and every young lady has from four to six

is a population OF 100000 sweethearts and
1000, 00O beaux. The social relations Of so
