There are hSndreds of good mines that have faile 1 to yield profit sim- ply because th5y have been misman- aged. Ignorance, carelessness and bullheadedness have united to strew the wrecks of gigantic enterprises ali over our rich country. Good mines, that might have been worked prohta- bly, almost from the grass roots under an economical and careful manage msnt, have been rhade to ruin fnan- cially these who have put money into Yfhen and are lying idle awaiting the time when experienced mining men shall discover their richness and pnr- chase them for nominal amounts, There IS nothing like good manage. ment in any business, and nothing that will bring ruin so speedily as careless and inefficient management

 Theodore F. White, Chairman ot the Territorial stoek Association at Tucson last waell read extracts from tho Arizona qbkrantihc laws. He drew especial sttantion to Section 2, which provides t'iat, if the inspector is satisfied as to the bealth of the cat tie, he should permit them to enter. The speaker observed that it was well known that cattle apparently healthN would communicate the Texas feyel. That was the reason why they had got up the quarantine law which tho Gov ernor had vetoed, as unconstltutionai. The speaker thought however that Sections and 3 would cover the lues- ton. Kansas had quarantined against certain sections of Texas, therefore he thought we had good ground t quarantine cattle from the same dts tricts. When Colorado and Kansas ouarantined against 9 district, us dan gerous, he thoughtit should be enougl prima facie evidence for our inspector to refuse admittauce tO cattle iron those districts. The ground he tool was that they should issue instruction to the inspectors to have certain ques tions answered, un9er oath, and if tn : answers to these questions weredeen ed unsatisfactory, the cattle should | refused admlt'ance. The speakt . then read q nusl lber of resolutions l l Intolerance of lnese ylews which wei unanimously ak opted.

The condition of the British troops on the Nile is said to be deplorable, Although the Government is endeav- oring to suppress all news tending to show the true state of affairs III the Soudan, yet private letters from the soldiers reveal the fact that they are suffering tortures from the heat, and arc kept busy fighting the yermin and reptiles with which the country swarms and are more to be dreaded than the Arabs. Many of the soldiers ] are dylug from typhus and enter1c diseases aud patches of the sick are daily sent to Cairo. The writer oi this information says it is absurd as well as cruel to keep the troops n such a fearful country during thG summer, as even those who survive the tropical heat will be fit fer noth ing in the autumn.

The

The Thibodaux Sentinel concludes
an eloquent defense of the Acadians as
follows
1.-THE descendants of those Acadian
exiles are found in every neighborhood
of the French speaking portion of
Southern Louisiana. The women are
noted for their grace and beauty, for
their virtue and family devotion, for
their piety and charity. The men have
representatives at the bar, in the pull
pit, in the shops of the mechanic, on
the judiciary, in science and in the
halls of legislation, and in all branches
and pursuits of life, who are the equals
of any people in any country and IN
any nation in talent, skill, energy and
in %eloquence. Whatever these modern
writer's may say in their egotism and
arrogance about the Acadian exiles,
there is nothing to be found 10 the his
tory of the humble career of those ear
ly settlers of Louisiana that should
cause a blush of shame to redden the
cheeks of one Of their descendants.
Rather should they reyere and honor
the memory of those bold and hardy
ancestors whose stern and rigid virtues
will remain impressed upon the history
of early Louisiana, leng after the names
of the writer's who so unjustly defame
the dead will have been lost in the
darkness of oblivion"
