No Special Term:

Judge Fitzgerald has abandoned his intention of holding a special term of court 1t this time to dispose of the in dictments found by the special grand jury, and these cases will be tried dur ing the first week of the September term. His reasons for this seem ample and proper. The expense of a special term will be very great at this season, as jurors would be brought almost without exception from the country. and thls IS their busy time The rate of taxation is already high and any useless burden upon the taxpayers ought to be avoided. A delay of two months will work no great hardship upon the parties accused commensurate with tbe evils Of speclal term. Besides this, Judge Fitzgerald s health has not been good for some time and the strain upon him, mentally and physically, at this tune might lead to serious consequences. The counsel have mutually aoquiesced in this action of adjournment, md the order will be en- tered next Monday.

Are They ApacIIeS.

From c. B. Shepard, deputy col lector of custom, 1t is learned that a few Apaches still turk near the borders of Sonora and Arizona. On the 2lth instant, MT. Shepard, with Romualdo Montova as guide. was proceeding on government business from La NOria to Nogales, he having traversei the boundary hne from Fl Paso, Texas. When about nine miles out of La Noria, in San Antonio pass, where the trail IS narrow and tortuous among the rocky clefts in the mountains, the guide suddenly stopped and MT. Shepard passed him a few rods, when the guid C called him to stop, at the same time pointing tO party of Indians then Gp- preaching them. At the same time the Indians, five Tn number, ,dismOunted and hid behind the adjacent rocks. MontOya, who has been long among the Indians, and is familiar with their ways and tribal relations, excitedly pronounced them Apaches, and he and NIT. Shepard began a nasty retreat from ALc4E itIllutlS pO-AAluAs Inc 1uulitu5 ul once remounted sni gave chase, and for three miles 1t was an even chance as to who would win the race. The more open country being reached the Indians the pursuit, and MT. Shepard and his guide took a more circuitOus route to reach their destination.
 Upon making known the circumstance in La Noria some people laughed at them for theIr pTecipitOus retreat, say ing they were but friendly Indians, but from their suspicious actions in dis- mounting and hiding, together with their pursuit, 1t was considered wise tu form a party to investigate the matter. and ten men volunteered to undertake the task. Nothing has since been heard of the party. Mr. Montoya stoutly asserts that they were Apsches, with hostile intentions.

TIE SANTA CRUZ.
4 Horoscope Through the Prophetic Eye
 Of n Careful Observer.

"Yes, We have good farming lands adjacent to this city," remarked an old settler to a transient visitor, at the depot last night. "Cln you sec that opening away wonder to the south be tween the high peaks of the Santa Rilas and the lesser ranges to the right: Well, from a point many miles beyond the extent of your vision down to the Sery doors os Tucson and miles Co the northward, lies the valley of the Santa Cruz. 1t varies m width from one to four miles. and its rich and tlilable soil can be fairly estimatel as fully one mile wide, giving an area ot land suit able for cultivation somewhat exceeding sixty thousand acres. Ibis land wlli grow almost every kind Ot vegetable, cereal or fruit that can be Taised m California. It can be irrigated by rals- ing the water through chute and conveying 1t by canals or ditches 10 proper points Of distribution. There Is plenty of water; it Is actually a scbter- rGneGn river of mighty proportions, fed by innumerable streams and sprIuGs,and the only drainage Of a watershed If thousands Of square miles. It is the opinion of many ob- serving and intelligent men that fl the subterranean waters of the Santa Cruz river be utilized within the limits of a canal, there would be sufficient flow of water t. accommodate the large river steamers like those of the Missis- sippi. This water is at the present time nearly all wasted. \ number of stock men own the valley land and they Use the water simply for their animals, not cultivating much of the land. They lit- tie dream that the real value of land upon which their stock feeds is worth ten times tue sum their herds will bring, if devoted to intelligent husbandry. The time wIll come, when the whole valley of the Santa Crnz will be continuous grove of fruit trees that will yield gold en harvests to their prosperous and fortunate owners.
 Although this IS country very oil in years, it Is but an infant in progress, and the advances 1t has made in the past few years far exceeds the total progress Of the two centuries previous tO the ad ven. Of the railroad. In ten years should you pass this way, you will find Tucson great and busy city, sur rounded by country as inviting as the most vivid imagination can concieye, literally fulfilling the prophecy that the desert shall blossom as the rose"

 The "Morrlon" people are making fine improvements in Apache county. They are an industrious, hard working peo- ple. This Is the testimony of everybody who knows them.
 Mir. Edward NJ. Brown, of Nutriso, called into our office on Tuesday and stated that last Saturday evening they had a very heavy fIost, ice lyingin some pIaces until nine o'clock next day. All inc garden stuff is thought to be killed. Nr. Brown thinks the grain is not in- iured and that the potatoes will recover and make a crop. The frost affected Round valley, Bush and Lunas valleys, tbou,h NIT. Brown did not learn to what extent.

Salt River Fruits.

The Phenix Gazette says that NIT. A. l.. Meyer, agent of Wells, Fargo X Go. in that city, communicated with his company a short time since in regard to the large production of fruit Tn that valley, and the advisability of securing it's shipment to other Territorial towns. He has since received instructions from headquarters to offer fruit dealers and producers of Phenix the following spe- cial rates: To Casa Grande, s 50 per hundred pounds; to Tucson, Si 90; to Benson, S5 90; to Tombstone, S6 J0. By this arrangement fruit left in the ex- press office there at o'clock in the at- ternoon will be laid down m Tucson at 10 o'clock the next morning-slx hours sooner than 1t is possible to ship It from Los Angeles. The special rate on shipment of fruits by express from Los Angeles to Tucson is S6.J0 per hundred, allowing local producers en advantage of two cents per pound m competing with that market. The Gazette says: "Urder these circumstances our fruit industries should not suffer the present season for the want of a market. Our farmers can certainly realize n good profit with the advantages now accorded them. We are happy to see that there Is at least one rich and powerful corpo- ration which eylnccs DO disposition to discriminate against the infant in- dustries of the Salt river valley

Anyone who will take the pains to look at tue condition of the old ceme- tery will certainly see reasons for tue demand that it be disinfected. The up- turned soil from the graves is Impreg- mated with decayed animal matter, and fragments of routed collins can be seen strewD about the place. A smart shower of ram upon the ground m its present condition would cause it to yield up the most uuwholesome and nsusest- ing gases. The removal of bodies from old cemeteries in other places, even un- der more favorable circumstances, has frequently been attended with serious results. As Q precautionary measure, It for nothing else, those grounds should be disInfected at once.

The following letter from consul Will lard to Col. POstun contains some items of interest to many readers of the CITI- ZEN:
 GUAYMAs, MexIco, June 2l, 1881.
 My Dear CoL:-SOme persons who delight in everything sensational are trying to make GuaymEs the "Nera Cruz of the Paciic"-the hot bed of pestilence; the mother place on tbe ,nst of yellow fever-so persistently do they exert themselves, that all other diseases have disappeared-no chance of dying except by yellow fever, the knife and the bullet.
 Our town is dull, consequent upon the dread of fever, and not much chance for improvement until October.
 The Blaine boom looks to me as If it will carry him into the White House on the 4th of next March. And fl 1t Is so, We will then have treaty with Mexico "a treaty of friendship, navigation and commerce. Our old treaty as you are aware expired in November 1881. and al- though We have our other treaties with Mexico in full force, yet this, the fOun- dation of diplomatic relations hetWeen nations, has not been renewed. You know Irving in his 'KnickeTbockers" says, Nations who are always negotiat- ing treaties, between themselves, are d. ways on the best friendly terms"-ss each one is trying to get the advantage of the other Tn the treaty they expect to make; but when the treaty is made there IS nothing more tO expect but f. try and pick flaws in ii, and interpret each ore to their own advantage and the friendly intercourse ceases. pre- sume we have been acting on this prin- ciple since 1881 We have now a special commercial treaty, but the foundation treaty is still lacking. I hope that you will receive the nomination of delegate, you should have it; you deserve it, for a thousand good reasons.
 Yours truly and sincerely,
