to-day the morning session was of the
dullest possible description. News
fountains seemed 10 have suddenly
gone dry, and in the absence OF infor-
nation Of some kind traders generally
proceeded to do nothing. A large in /
crease was expected on passage, but it
only showed up little over 100000
bushels. This tended to open May a
little easy az S4sc, but after half an
hour the talk of the pit was that over
twenty boat lHG9s had been taken
early for export. This sent MAY ~
10 safe quits rapidly, but the reports
we're uncon6rmed on later kilograms !

Synopsis of the Argument Of Counsel In
 the Motion for a New Trial

Synopsis of the Argument of Counsel In
 the Motion for a New Trial,
 Promptly at o'clock Thursday after noon the attorneys of the respective par ties came into court with 8 formidable array of authorities. After some pre- limilary skirmishes the attorneys for MT Paul proceeded to argue that there could be no new trial granted in the case. Judge Haynes opened an srgu- ment. The following is summary of his remarks. He first called attention to the grounds upon which an election may be contested, and read the law of this Territory upon the subject. He further stated that a party wishing to test the right of any person 10 hold an office might pursue either of two meth Ods. first by the common law writ of quo wsrrsnto; second by the special proceeding provided for by the territor- lal law. If the party wished to pursue the former method, the contestant must wait till the other party received his certificate of election and tried to e1- tuc lllc IT tue contestant wished to test the right of his opponent by the latter method, he must avail himself of the statutory spec ial proceeding. The speaker then argued that his latter method was only authorized by Ia special statute prescribing a summary remedy and the rule is well settled that wherever the law provides 6 summary remedy the remedy must be strictly pursued, d. though the rules governing the trial of the case were the same as those govern ing the conduct of ordinary civil cases. The statute of Arizona on this subject being taken from that of California that the court must accept the construction and interpretation given to that statsute by the highest court of that state. Tue original statutet of California and sthe law of Arizona were then compared. AnditO maintain the proposition, that the jurisdiction of the court ended with the ending of the special term counsel read number of California cases. These cases embraced many arising under special proceedings in contested election cases, proceedings for condemnation of rights of way, and many others arising under statutes providing for special proceedings granting summary reme- dies. Counsel then proceeded to illus trate and strengthen his legal proposi- tions by numerous citations of suthori- ties from the highest judicial tribunals of New York and other states.

Its Annlicntion Is GeneraI.

Some of our new corners complain very bitterly of the gab and gossip stuffed into the ears of their wives and daughters, about town, by women who ought to have enough respect for them selves at least to keep their tongues 10 themselves. This matter of misrepre- senting and stretching facts and endesv- bring to poison the minds of new cou- CTS and settlers against us by matters that they are strangers to, and prefer to he strangers to, simply stamps the re- tailers of such stuf as coarse, uncultur- ed, brsinless takers who disgrace the community by living ID 1t. No one can blame our new settlers for the disgust they express at such 8 course ot pro cedure by people who are introduced to them as respectable, but who prove themselves the most shallow and vicious. People of intelligence as a general thing do no care to be stuffed with even scan dalous facts, let alone scaDdalous lies, and recoil in disgust, despising, very properly, the retailers of the stuf-Phe- nix Herald.

 Ian, of Graham, who sad he was ditto, and wan ed the party to organize thor oughly and prepare for the coming struggle. He dId not repeat his famous oratIOn made at the Chicago National Convention.
 The Hon. Samuel Purdy was also thoroughbred democrat, and was always to be found ID the harness. He thought the party ought to organize and bring out some good-lOOking material for their political corpse this fall
 Gov. c. Meyer Zulick followed with an exhortstion to lay aside personal griev- ances and dissppOintments n their of- fice-seeking and join hands in securing peace snl harmony. He said he did not believe Tn corrupt election methods and buying votes. Here Mir. Oury spoke up aud said there had been no corrup- ton in the Territory for the past six years lndiscribsole grins all around MT. ZulIck resumed and said that the democracy was party of progress "as immovBble as these mountains" He said the Territory i3 democratic fe, tie, Governor and It was therefore misrep- resented III Congress by a republican.

 To please the whim of the Star for proofs of its offer to throw the Demo cratic party for gold, the following affi- davit IS given to the public:
 TERRITORY OF ARIZONA.
 County of Pima.
 At the election held Tn November, loS2, l was a candidate for Sheriff and c. K. Drake was candidate for Recorder on the Republican, ticket, and E. O. Shaw and W. 5. Read were the candi- dates on the Democratic ticket for the same positions of Sheriff and Recorder, respectively. Some time in the month of October, about three weeks before the election, L. O. Hughes approached MT. Drake and myself and wanted to meet us privately at any hour or place we would suggest. 1 told Mir. Hughes that ws would meet him at ' o'clock that eveping at my office in the Court House. At the hour designated we met and all three going into my private office locked the door. MT. Hughes then offered to support Drake and my self for the respective positions of Recorder and Sheriff in lieu of Read and Shaw, the regular Democratic nominees, for $500 each. After talking awhile we offered hIm $500 each. He said it was not enough; that his being a Democratic newspaper tbe sum would not remuner- ate him for the losses he would sustain by the withdrawal of Democratic pat roDage. We told him We would give no more, and he finally said he would take tbs offer under consideration and then left. The negotiations were not resumed. k. Fl. PAUL.
