Those Internal Mails.

The mails seem all out of joint, so far as those pertaining to postoifces to the north of the railroad gre concerned. Nearly every day complaints are re- ceived from subscribers that ttey do not receive the CITIZEN with any d, gree of regularity, and that sometimes it reaches them from one to two weeks behind time. A subscriber in Riverside, Pinal county, propounds the fol!oWing start ling ccIundIum: How Is 1t that one paper should come 1.GOO miles III five days, and another paper Of the si me date, only hundred miles away, should take one cay longer to reach the same placeg'
 Then again. under date of July 2, a Globe sub crlber writes:
 "DoUbtles, you are not aware that the CITIZEN IS not regular Tn it's appear snce at the Globe pos office, and that your subscribers are greatly inconve- uieDc6d by its non-rrcelPt. It IS fully a week since a copy was received at tie Belt office"
 These and similar complaint are par :icularly annoy ing, with the thermome- ter at no degrees aud a red hot political campaign m prospect. The CITIZEN will use its best endeavors tO discover where the fault lies and apply the proper remedy.
 Upon inquiry at the postOfgce, NIT. Freeman states that durIng the recent washOuts trains have run very irregu- lsrly, and frequently there has been no maIi agent on them. The mails thus accumulate in the postofiice. and when taken by s mail train the bulk Is SO great that the route agent has insufficient time to assort them before reaching the near points of divergence. He says there are many plausible reasons for delay in the malls in thIs Territory for which no sin gle individual can be held responsible.

Almost a Fire.

Last evering while the pyrotechnic display was Icing made ar accident happened which came near result ing in the destruction by fire Of Pima couniy's seventy y-fve-thousand- dollar court house. 1t appears that while the display was going on in Court plaza some of the committee were d. rec,ed to take a number of rockets and other pyroiechnics on to the dome of the court house and fire them from that place Tn order to add to the attractions of the display. After a number Of rock cts had been sent up, the box contain ing the works took fire and general explosion folloa ed The box had been placed on the trap door, and this cut of the escape of those on the tower. Char ley FraleiGh and yolng son of B. F.. SWeetland caught hold of an electric wire and slipped down to the first win dows of the dome, where they were rescued by parties who threw out ropts to them. MT. White, printer, remained at his post and .ougbt the fire braveiy. while Pat McQuilkin hurried below and brought up the hose. The fire company was soon on the ground, and the flames were extinguished before any material damage had been done. It was a close call not only for the court house, but the lives Of those who were on the tower at the time.
 To add to the confusion, while the flames were blazing mp from the tower, box of rockets and Roman candles was carried from Court plaza into the office of the Chief Of Police in the city hall, and by some means took fire, causing another frightiul explosion, which for a time threatened the destruction of the city hall and englne house.

Some of the old court records of twenty years ago present quite interest ing "reminiscences. They are generally devoid of the technicalities of the pres ent time.
 It is feared by some that the Mir. Bateman, mentioned Tn the telegraph columns as being among the injured Tn the railroad accident near the Needles, IS the Rev. c. A. Baiema II, of California, who has been announced to lecture Tn this city next Friday. As he intended visiting PheniX and other points, It IS probable that he would take that route.
 The Silver City Enterprise says that Capt. r. J. Mitchell and his oldest son. and another person whose name was not learned, were killed by Navajo Indians while prospecting in ArizOna about three weeks ago. Capt. Mitchell was superintendent at Santa Rita, and also had charge Of the Golden Rule mine at the time It closed down. He was well known throughout Southern New MexI- CO and Arizona.
 Mayor Strauss to-day suggested to the council that they prepare for some official action relative tO sewers and 1rSInage. lie advised that a mass meet ing of citizens and taxpayers be called and the sUbjec; thoroughly discussed. and that the council taEe action upon the result of such expression. This is subject of much importance to the city, and early action by the people aud council should be taken.

 "Fop?y Johnson and the balance of the gang ,f rustlers recently captured in Sierra county have been lodged III the Santa Fc i4Il," says a New Mexico pa- per. IL is hardly necessary to state that the Toppy Johnson above referred tO IS not the mining man of the same name, of this city. The latter gentleman is a good citizen, sn honorable man and the owner of many very valuable mining in this county, notably in the Quijotoas.
 The excitement at the city hall this afternoon ran pretty high, in the case of the young gentleman from California. arrested for obtaining money under false pretenses of some sporting fratern- ity after they had fleeced him, it has been alleged, out cf nearly seven hun- ired dollars.

 The band again played an appropriate air, and Don Carlos l. Velasco, editor of the Fronterizo, was introduced and spoke for fifteen minutes Tn the Spanish language, receiving frequent plaudits by an appreciative audience. This was fol- lowed by the whole assemblage joining in singing the Red, White and Blue, led by the Fourth Cavalry band, when the exercises were closed and the announce ment made that the children would find plenty of refreshments in the hall, to which place all were at liberty to go.

In the fall of 1868 Thomas Wallace who came to this city with the California troops died and was buried in tue old military cemetery on Stone avenue. Before the war he was partner ot Capt. George Hand in business in California and although he was blind of one eye when the Captain enlisted he ins'sted upoa entering the service with him. The mastering officer refused to muster him because of his physical defect, but he insisted end was finally sworn in as the regimental butcher. Like most members of the California column he concluded 10 make Arizona bis home aud at the close of the war he settled m Tucson. He and Captain Hand were fast friends and through the vicissitudes through which they passed during the G#rk days of the uation's history and when Wallace died the chief mOurEer at the funeral was Captain Hand. By him the grave of the dead soldier was always kept in good shape and 10 decor ation day has passed that the old Captain did not take 1t upon himself to lay upoH the grave beautiful wreath. Not only his bat not Sunday has passed since lS6S taat the old veteran has not visited the grave and placed upon 1t some floral token Of regard.
