READ AND PONDER.

There is a deeper interest in
 American politics among the Eng.
 fish people than was ever known
 before. The reader will naturally
 form the opinion that all of this
 interest in the success of the Dem
 ocratic parry is attributable to the
 trading spirit of the English, who
 want free markets for the pauper.
 ized goods manufactured in the
 British Isles, and it is a fact. The
 London Times of July 18th ex- plains very freely and candidly the reason for the intense British interest in American politics, and also their great desire and hope that Cleveland and Thurman may be elected. Here is what the Times says: "The electioneering campaign in America ought to be most interesting to the English people for historical, political, philosophical and economic req sons. The main question at issue is English free trade against the continental system of protection. The republic is on trial. Good, conservative government, under Cleveland, is opposed by the rule and ruin party, under Blaine, whose friends nominated Harrison, and who would be Secretary of State under a Harrison admins. tration. Thus the English people are directly involved in the con- test through their pockets, which will be affected by the tariff, and their future, which would be ser iously influenced by the restoration 10 power of such fire brand as Blaine with his home rule and anti Chinese policy. The Amefi. can election is infinitely more i'm. portant to Englishmen than their own internal politics just at this juncture, and they should observe every phase of the campaign close. ly and understandingly. The re- suit of the American election will help to decide many important issues in Great Britain. ."

 WE are informed by the Demo, cratic delegates of this place, that on thoroughly interviewing the different delegates, who met in Prescott at the last convention, that It is self-evident fact, beyond anyreasonable grounds for dispute, that large majority of the Demo. cratic taxpayers and citizens of this county are not in favor of a eoany Aiuston at the present time, nor do they incline in that direc- ton for some time to come. There seems to be general harmony in ranks of the Democrats on this point, consequently the bandana fraternity of our village acquiesce fully in this opinion, not, holding forth as invincible creatures, they naturally stand by the majority, believing, as in ,he days of old, Gin union there is strs ngth," and that the majority should continue to rule.

FROM what the Democratic dele gates and the two nominees of the ticket seem to think, it looks as though the hope of a new county being created next year is not feas- ible. If what our Democratic brethren believe be true, why it looks as though the new county proposition for this year will have to lay over at least another two wears.

CoLoNEL 20 CAMERON H. KING, one of the "chiv," who was ap. pointed by the grace of the Mikado C.. Meyer Zulick, to the position of Commissioner of Immigration, during the reign of the I4th, at a salary of s4.soo and trimmings, which is claimed amounts to about Ss,ooo more year, it is said, by some of our Democratic exchanges, has gone to reside at San Diego. Who could not live at a watering place on S6,5oo year, and then, perhaps, the exhilarting effect of the sea breeze may cause him to write one little article, during his term of office, in the interest of immigration. This is only one of the many economic acts of the Governor, saciioned and approved by the last legislature.

THE pith of Cleveland's message to Congress, on the rejection of the fisheries treaty by the Senate seems to be simply praise of Bay ards fabby treaty, a desire to retaliate on Canada, and trying to make for himself a little political ranital

IT has been ascertained, to the delight of the Democrats, that once upon a time MT. Morton em ployed a foreign gardener. But he didn't let the man go to the poor house, which is more than can be said of MT. Cleveland's treatment of the substitute whom he employ ed to do service for him in the Union army.

THE Mikado, who rules the peo. pie of this Territory, by the grace of G. Cleveland, appears to have got his work in when the selection of delegates to the Democratic Territorial Convention. to be held at Tucson, were elected, although one of his henchmen, who was a candidate, got left in the schuffle. When such old wheel horses of the party as Rush, Thorne, Cornell and Goldwater get left there must

Fatal Panami.

A gentleman recently of Panama
 gives the Nogales Record dread
 ful description of that country. He
 says there are seven months of dry
 weather, the remainder of the year
 the water coming down as if from
 cloudbursts. Details of soldiers are
 kept busy in burying the dying
 workmen on the De Lesseps canal.
 Many diseases are prevalent.
 The vomitanegro and the phagsis
 are fatal levers, and smallpox is continuous. There is an indigen- ous leprosy; it is an animalcule
 which gets into the joints, its con-
 tinuous gnawing rottirg the limbs until they fall off. Another dis ease is an enlargement of the feet,
 known as the elephantesis; it is prevalent among the lower classes, and the feet swell and the skin becomes like that of an elephant. A disease which has the appear ance of myriads of worms affects one from head to foot, the victim becoming entirely destitute of hair.
 The canal is progressing as we'll as could be expected under the circumstances, as the hardest part of a gigantic undertaking like that is in making the start. The em. ployes are paid in Central Ameri. can money. Those who wish to save or retain their money buy Ameri. can money, which commands the highest prlce-4o per cent. The only class paid by the day are coolies, who receive Go cents per day, which is large pay for them. The laborers are mostly from la. malca, but their principal occupa. ton is begging. A good man can make from SIo 10 SI2 per day at piece work.
 From one side of the isthmus to the other is perfect jungle of the tosatree, a very large class of cane. It is almost impossible to pass through them without cutting your way. The jungles are full of the most venemous reptiles and insects in the world, among which are the tomagos, the Cobra American. and the anaconda, specimens of which have been seen 36 feet long. Among the carniverous animals are the jaguar, tiger, wild cat and panther. Of the graminiverous are the armadillo, javilena or wild hog and the sloth. The sloth is the lazlest animal in the world, taking about two hours to climb a tree, where it sits on limb and exudes from its mouth strong substance which attracts flies, and when its mouth is full 1t closes the trap and tries it again. The ant.eater also uses it's mouth | IS a trap for the purpose of gaining l living, by running ou, its tongue and letting the ants come on until t becomes covered with them and hen draws 1t Tn.
 There IS plenty of game, such as leer, turkey, several kinds of squir- 'el and birds of the finest plumage n the world; also a species of .agle which are much finer eating han turkey; monkeys in proius- on, all kinds and sizes.
 There are flowers of all colors, put, like all tropical flowers, hav- ng little perfume.
 The principal products of the are bananas, plantains, coffee ard cocoa. However, agri ,ulture is not carried on to any ex- ent and all the food is imported rom Jamaica or the United States, principally from the latter.

FISHERIES TREATY REJECTED.

After a long and exhaustive dis cussion the Senate has rejected the fisheries treaty. This conclu. sion was inevitable from the first. The treaty bargained for such pri- vilsges in Canadian ports as are due to friendly nations from com mon usage. The Canadian author. ities made unreasonable exactions and offered to retreat from their position if the United States would give them an equivalent. From the day the treaty was published it has been clear that it would not pass, and it was simply rejected on its own merits or rather lack of merits.

By taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, which, by the remarkable cures 1t has accomplished, often when other medicines have failed, has proven itself to be potent and pecul- lar medicine for this disease. Some of these cures are really wonderful. If you suffer from scrofula or impure blood, be sure to try Hoods Sarsaparilla.
 "Every spring my wife and children have been troubled with scrofula, sores break ing out on them in various places. My little boy, three years old, has been a terrible sufferer. Last spring he was one mass of sores from head to feet. was advised to use Hoods Sarsaparilla, and we have all takenlt.
