PARLYN, New Mexico, January 20. 1884
Dear Cousin G. singular rs it may seem to
you, this is the first letter have written this
winter. enjoy my rest from extreme mental
toll, as you may well imagine. take from a
half to whole hour every day to note down
anything of interest that may occur. spend
a deal of time treading through the grand old
forests. A company Of wood-choppers are
telling the trees in immense numbers. They
cut, calculate, about fifty cords daily. The
principal varieties of trees here are maple,
beech, oak, poplar, spruce and elm. | rarely
ever saw such large trees as some of them are.
There are about five hundred cords of oak
landed by the railroad. to be shipped away,
and a large quantity of spruce for building
purposes. A. n Francis, contractor and builder,
told me he had engaged to build over twenty
residences at this place.
It seems impossible that we are in the midst
of winter. The air is as balmy as spring,
fields are green as in May, and some of our
handsomest wild flowers are now blooming.
Tonight have been out looking at Mars.
Hal lent me his telescope that Roy gave him.

come out here to live. OF course any one who
comes here expecting to find an Eden very soon

A mob, learn, broke into the store, four or
five miles above here, but from conversation
overheard, judge it was done because the

to give him practical temperance lecture;

for doing such work.

THE SAILOR tPLovETs).

Cruel ia our lonely ocean,
Roaring always day and night;
Buried meath its wild common
Many a wreck lies, far from sight
Courage, comrades I, conading,
To the free winds give my barque;
Forth IT hastens, swiftly riding
Der the pillows grim and dark
Thick the clouds fly Ger the heaven,
Fierce the gale grows black the waves
Bither, thther we are driven,
While the waking whirlwind raves.
Courage, comrades Peals the thunder,
High the watery heaps arise,
Yawning CULTS now draw us under,
Now we're lifted to the skies.
Yet behold, our ship Ia nearing
Through the storm the wished-for land;
&c., the vaults of heaven are clearing,
See, the port Ia near at hand
Thither but brave hearts and ready
win the pillows speed along
Courage. comrades straight and steady
Flies our vessel, staunch and strong.

rno mormon question in Arizona

Nearly all Of the newspapers OF Ar.
zona, are exceedingly bitter against the
oontin ed immigration into that Tern
tory. of the Salt Lake Mormons from
Utah, who already control four counties,
and will fually rum the Territory no far
as its occupation by Gentiles Is CONCERN
ed. as il has Utah. The ArisOnd Star
and Citizen. the Tombstone Epitaph. the
pbWnix Ga.eue, the Globe Chronicle and
the Southeastern StockmdH, all published
in the Gentle portion OF Arizona, are
leading this fight against the subleetiOn
of the Territory to p0lyBamy, and the
inauguration OF Mormon laws and
customs. thing which at present ap-
uears to be imminent. The land which
tho Mormuns now occupy aud control Is
the finest, and already an Elder and
Bishop OF the AiOrnons laith, have bee N
established, whose will II higher law
than that of the United States OF the civil
Courts. The St0ckmaH Is especially
bitter over this alarming state OF things,
saving that tea Mormon families are now
settling in Arizona, where one did a lew
Years ago, and that, unlike Otah, there
arc none OF the Second or Latter Day
Saints, but nine. tenths Of the immigrants
are dovout polygamists. Their
mated enemy Gov. Murray, has been re-
appointed Governor OF Utah. lie has
been such terror to them in many ways
that they are fleeing to Arizona Tor ret'
uge. Thousands oi the residents OF Ari-
zOna will petition Gov, Tritle TO forward
a bill to Congress, asking that Arizona
may be made a State, so as to success
fully wrestle with this alarming influx.
Already those desperate polygamists
have attempted to convert some OF the
fair daughters Of Arizona to their un-
holy faith. 1t Is to be hoped that the
efforts Of our neighbors may be success
ful, and that the Mormons OF the Brig
ham Young or polygamous faith may be
driven out Of fruitful Arizona and kept
within the confines OF Utah until a
change eau be had at our national cap

shall be wiped out eiiectually.

tropical birds, all of small size but with
the most exquisite plunage, not gaudy

Others in ornithological names. They
were confined in n light bamboo cage,

greeted Sargent with a courteous bow, but
shook hands with all the other diplomats.

who placed it there.
BERLIN, March 27.-It Is officially
stated that last year at Ermsleben, a small
town of Prussian Saxony, 4O3 persons be-
came seriously ill and sc died from Trichi-
nosis. The disease was caused by eating
raw pork, which all came from one or the
same hogs.
LONDON, March 27.-Gen. Graham tele-
graphed this morning that the evenings
and nights were cool. The reveille sounded
this morning at $3.50, and as quickly as
possible the troops got in readiness to ad-
vance IN Tamnieb. The cavalry are in
front, and the infantry followed in Echeloh
