The late DR.. Leishman, of GoVan Par
ish, used to take his marriages to the
church, especially after he grew old and
in6rm, and unable to walk long distances.
He used to wait until there was an ac-
cumulation OF candidates for matrimony
and make one service suffice for all the
batch 1t was not difficult task, this
Wholesale system of marriage, but it had
considerable risks. On one occasion the
doctor had reached the critical part,
where the joining of hands takes place.
There was dead silence, broken at last by
one of the brides exclaiming: "Haud on
a wee, doctor" What's wrang?" asked
the doctor. Hand on a wee till we see.
[ believe I've gotten baud O the wrang
man.

What do I thank God most for this
past year, was the topic for considera-
ton in certain prayer meeting, some
time ago, in the course Of which one Of
the speakers gave substantially the fol-
lowing instructive testimony am de-.
voutly grateful for the health which has
been granted, both to myself and family,
but this is not my chief cause for thank.
fulness. am grateful that amid the
fluctuations Of trade have had a year
Of unusual prosperity as business man
am not Indifferent to this blessing, but
still it is not the one that awakens the
deepest thrill Of gratitude in my heart.
Above every thing else tonight l thank
God that he has permit d me to touch
human souls. Though leading a very
busy life, lie has permitted me to speak
to young men, Of whom score, at least,
have turned from Satan to Christ"

Plucky Greece

LONDON, Jan. 26.-The Greek minis. ter, in an interview to-day, respecting the warlike news published this morning from Athens, said ''The Greek govern ment and people will fight to the bitter end before they will allow Bulgaria to absorb Io,ooo,ooo people belonging to the Greek race, which she certainly will do if the union of Bulgaria and Eastern Roumelia is recognized. Greece is fully entitled to the whole of Epirus. England is interfering with the rights and liberties of Greece. l am confident that the Greeks can whip the Turks at sea; as to the land defenseless of Greece, the moment war is declared, Macedonia and Albania will be set in flames, thus cutting off the communications of the Turks and attacks on seaports.

The Pima County Ranchmen's Asso- citation has chosen the Los Vegas Stock Grower as their official organ. One would have thought that body could have found paper to represent it with out going outside of the territory. Should the journal in question not profit more by the appointment than did their former organ, it will not grow very rich. Some members of that association are anxious to be known as "cattle kings, with a court journal, but object to pay for the fuss and feathers.

Cleveland on Indian Agents

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-A delegation composed of prominent friends of Indian reform, called on the President who re- ceived them without any great enthusi- asm. Herbert Welsh one of the mem- bers of the delegation says: The Presi- dent said our estimate of the agents of whom we spoke differed from the reports of others who have communicated with the department. l asked him whether he would favor the extension of the orn- ciple of civil service reform. He did not make definite answer to this question, but appeared not to favor it. He said he did not think the educational test

 In IS49, the California pioneers ridi- culed the idea that wheat could be grown in that state. So now, there are many outsiders-and not a few in our midst who believe this territory will never be good for anything but mineral and bugs, with little stock raising thrown in. Yet, we can iaise here any description of fruit that grows in California and ship it from two to five weeks earlier than the earliest product of that state. As soon as the fact is thoroughly understood in the east, we shall see large immigra. tion to Arizona of such persons as are now paying the fancy prices asked for land in Los Angeles. What we must do is to pull together for Arizona, as a whole. Narrow, sectional prejudices must be buried out of sight. First make outsiders understand that we can raise many things here besides centipedes and scalps and then it will be early enough to discuss the varying advantages of diff ferent sections.
Daily Tombstone epitaph., 1886-01-27

Recent dull times in the territory have led many people to go to work chlorldlng and good deal of legitimate mining for mineral is being done, mostly with satis- factory results. This is as it should be and will inaugurate new era of solid prosperity for Arizona Custom reduc- tion works will go up, employing many men, who will consume our farmers pro- ducts. Then we shall begin to feel in a measure, independent of that ogre, the "outside capitalist" who seldom comes when we want him. "Heaven helps those who help themselves"
Daily Tombstone epitaph., 1886-01-27

In view of the large number of news papers that are started in Arizona every year, only to run for few months, it would seem good idea to have small printing outfit mounted on a covered wagon, such as is used by circuses. It could then be easily moved by the pro- pretor from place to place, as he heard of Hong felt want" that needed filling. Every owner ofa promising mineral indi- cation could have a number or two dated from his dump, whilst real estate specu- lators could send abroad glowing des. criptions of their paper towns, printed in journal published on the town site. We haven't patented this idea, but will make present oft to any budding journalist who would like to try an organ on wheels.
Daily Tombstone epitaph., 1886-01-27

We have received from Albert Will Hams, IT,, Chief of Division of Mining Statistics and Technology at Washing ton, a copy of the "Mineral Resources of the United States" for 1883 and 1884. We have also received circular from Mir. Williams, asking, as special favor, that marked copy of our issue, con- taining notice, if any, be mailed to that gentleman's address. This we shall do, with pleasure and our remarks are these; The volume in question contains I,oI6 pages, of which just ten pages are de- voted to the gold and silver mining in dustry.. This, although, according to statistics in the volume, gold and silver contribute one-ffth of the total annual mineral product of the United States.

would be the best way of deciding a mans fitness for the position of Indian agent. The President evidently felt the weakness of the department in respect to the appointment of Indian agents. He seemed much interested in the case of the mission agents, and asked Professor Painter to call the attention of the at management to the matter.

Mexico Wants n Conference

CITY OF MEXICO, Jan. 26.-It is prob able that the government will propose to the United States the holding of a special monetary conference, in relation to the legalized depreciations of Mexican dol- lars in the United States, as compared with the Bland dollars. It begins to be believed here that in England public opinion is against the gold standard. It hopes that the United States will not consent to the stoppage of silver coinage.

Cleveland is reported as having said that he would give Arizona peace, if it takes the whole army. As General Crook says there are not enough soldiers in the United States army to keep the hostiles in check, this promise is not so encouraging as it might appear.
