The climate is mid, temperate and regular to wonderful degree, and the county singu larly free from venemous reptiles and insects 4 brief visit is treat during the hei:ed sea son for the tourist and traveler-a Paradise to the over worked business man, happy respite to anyone wearied of the ceaseless tide of humanity in our crowded thoroughlares and resorts of the East.
 The Grand Canon of the Colorado. he greatest crevasse on the face of the earth may be reached by a valley route from Peach Spring, on the 4. & P. R. R., by Journey of eighteen miles. By availipg himself of this route the traveller reaches the river al the foot of the walls, and views the magnificent temples above him. The crest of the gorge may be reached from Flagstaff in two days drive over delightful country. 2he point o.d by this route is the highest elevation along the great g rge, where the river bursts through m1unialn range at an elevation of 8 ooo feet. Scenery at this point IS de scribed as being of unp ralleled mag i6cance and grandeur. The gorge is here eighteen miles from crest to crest, pre- -enting bewild- ering array of architectural forms. Gazing into the great depths, with their wild beauty and thrilling and novel influences, give an impression uever to be forgotten and wholly impossible to describe.

North American Review.

This RevIew for November con- tains, among other valuable articles, a paper on the progress of Democra, oy in Europe, from the pen of the eminent Spanish statesman Emilio Casteilar. Some valuable contributions on the silver question, and an interest ing article on Recollections and Let ters of U. s. Grant. They give Grants first impressions of foreign countries and are very interesting, also, in other respects. Admiral Am men, it appears, was very desirous to bring General Grant into active con nectlon with opening Nicaragua Ca nal, and on that point he says this:
 "Had not circumstances, partly ap, parent to all, served aa a preven m, ion, there are substantial reasons for be- Iieving that General Grant would have taken positive action looking to the construction of the Nicaragua Canal, and that fair statement, laid before the American people, would have brought superabundant capital to execute work that, even with ve. y low rates of tolls, would be remu. nerative to degree; and, by reason of Its relative economy of construc- tion' actually freed from any possi. ble rivalr y."

 1 Through some some inadvertency in the report there was an omission in the published list Of premiums award. ed at the recent Albuquerque fair that affects Flagstaff. MT. w. L. Van Horn had on exhibition a frame ol samples of card making, all pen work by his own hand. Until he unpacked the returned exhibit a few days since and found a blue ribbon attached he didn't know that he had won prize. A medal will be forthcoming soon.
 It is gratifying to learn the report that General M. T. Thomas was about to leave us, is untrue. The CHAMPION has kindly feeling and unfeigned admiration for the old veteran, ex- tending back to the days of '62 when he was known 10 the writer as the Lt. Col. of the 4th Minnesota, as gallant a regimen as ever fought under the old flag. Subsequently he was made Col . onel of Minnesota regiment. and was promoted to General for gallant and meritorious service in the field.
 Tom Hughes, the proprietor of the Albuquerque Journal, arrived on Fri. day evening. It IS eighteen months since Mir. Hughes visited Flagstaff, and the appearance of the new town made. him think he had stopped off at the wrong place until he received the greetings of the old time friends who will always give him hearty welcome whenever he cones here. Tom is genial, whole-souled gentleman, and he runs the best daily newspaper pub lisheI in the Southwest.
 w. A. Switzer, superintendent of the wagon road now being constructed to the Verde, via Beaver Head and Rattlesnake Tanks, was in town Mon day. He reports the road completed to the Munds place, 22 miles south of Flagstaff, and about 5000, % of the appropriation of S4,ooo expended. He thinks the appropriation ample to finish the road, and that it will be fin lshed beyond Rattlesnakc hill in time to let the Verde people to this market before winter weather. That the peo- pie of Verde will avail themselves of this opportunity there Is no question.
 Mir. Church, the Superintendent of the Arizona Cattle company, paid Flagstaff a flying trip this week, on business for his company. He in formed the CHAMPION that he was ex cavating an artlfcal basin in the park north of the old Hart ranch, and thus far the experiment is productive of the most gratifying results. A wind mill will be used to noist the water to the surface, from which it will be dis lributed by the common troughs used by stoCkmen. No doubt of the prac- llcaOillty of th,s system of increas- ing the present water supply. The time IS last approaching when stock. men of this section must not only economize with the present supply, | but hoard up portion of the surface water that at present IS allowed to waste away during the periods of melting snow and rainfall. MT. Church'S experiment. will be watched with interest by the stockmen of this section.
