DROUGHTS AND CYCLONES,

During a recent journey to Europe,
writes Thomas E. Hill in The National
Builder, the passage across the ocean
was especially unpleasant because OF
fogs, the only consolation in contem-
plating them being that they represent.
ed the work of nature in drawing
moisture from the water, which, waited
inland, fell upon the soil in refreshing
rain, gathered in the brooks and rivers
and Slowed to the sea, to be again thus
sent back to freshen and brighten the
parched earth. The speed of our
vessel was materially retarded by
winds from the west, q common occur
renee in the summer season. The fogs
and moisture through these winds are
driven upon the continent where
drought seldom prevails, and particu.
larly do they freshen the verdure Of
Ireland, and hence the brilliant green
Of the Emerald isle.
In refiecting upon this subject, ]
contemplated the drought then pre-
vailing in several of the western and
middle states of the union. What had
they to gather rains fromp Alas, what
have they9 For q generation our
farmers have been draining their lands
of moisture. They have run their
tiling through every slough; they have
drawn out the water from every
swamp; they have dried up the pond;
they have obliterated the beautiful
little lake. In doing this they have
made such easy and rapid cgress fol
rainfall from the soil as to endanger
the homes and farm lands of all the
settlers along the great rivers in the
southern regions of our country, al.
ready infiicting great distress, loss of
life and property equaling in value
many millions Of dollars = an evil
which is growing in magnitude every
year.
The result of this wholesale drain
ing of the upper country of water is
not only thus disastrous to life and
property along the larger streams
from frequent overflow, but there is
such absolute drainage of moisture
from the earth as to produce severe
drought, accompanied by such intense
heat and dryness of atmosphere as
results in the hurricane, the cyclone,
and innumerable village, prairie, and
forest fires.
In the early days when the process
Of evaporation of moisture won't for
ward from the swamps, the ponds, and
lakes of our western and middle states,
an extended drought, with extremely
intense heat, was Comparatively rare.
In those days sunstrokc was very un-
common, and the cyclone was compar-
atively unknown. This year we are
in the second season of drought in
various portions of the country, while
every year brings its devastation from
wind, the result of an excessively dry
and frequently disturbed condition Of
the atmosphere.
With the land thus denuded of
natural water supply, there is but one
course for our farmers to pursue to
save themselves from these evils.
They may drain their soil. but they

By trade he is maker of stained glass win
dows, but has dabbled somewhat in pamphlet
literature and ballads. He is also an in

warns the owners hand and furnishes light

Taxpayers complain of baing feeced upon the pretezt for money for goy- ernmoutal expenses, aud inyeigh against the Board of Supervisors, up. on the ground of extravagance, with. out taking into consideration that a county, couched in its little domain, like a bottls-belled spider stretches its web over its entire bailiwick, and necessarily becomes sponsor for the Territory in every petty quarrel or other infraction of law, and liable. as well, for all incidental expenses at tending "a well regulated communi- ty. Taxpayers have really nothing to complain of They wanted 8 coun- ty of their own, absolutely pined fer It, and having got il, they grumblo, and talk of economy, begrudge the nsces. sary expense attending it's civic life.
 As an eye-openor we refer 10 inc expense aiLsnGing the running ot our courts, and, without entering into da- tail, we will cite the cost attending change or venue, iu brei to the eases of Burns and Bleyins, which cost GiIa county $GO320, and that was but 8 moioty of the expense attending tho last April term of cs9rt. The admin istration of justice, in this Tenito, ry, is the dried mocE.orangs and great ostrich egg shsil, described as an or uameut suspended in the center of a roam in Sleepy Hollow, and while crime runs riot expenses arc not abated.

A gentleman of culture and refine ment. who followed tho star of empire westward, from Boston to tho twilight of civilization, and took root at Wild Rye, Arizona, away out in the woods, whore "the thistle mods to each pass ing breeze, and Che fox digs his hole unseared, and who now enjoys the grandeur and emoluments of coun- ty post office, besides the freedom of the thicket surrounding the office, where cottontails dwell, is nevertheless not happy in that circumscribcd will derneSS where health, freedom and nature abide. The music of his heart is disturbed hy the achon of the Sec ond Assistant Postmaster General in increasing service on route No. 40, l42 to tri-weekly, without even saying to the Rye postmaster, By your leave, slr!' Nor is that all that the Rye postmaster has to complain of. The Washington ofiiclal has ordained that pcstmasters between Globe and Verde must not be inactive, but skip around, open, distribute, close, and deliver the sack to carrier within seven minutes, Waterbury time, which Wild Rye says he will not do nor allow the dlal of time to hurry him.
 There IS valid objection to the or der including Rye. The mail arrives there about midnight and, therefore seven minutes IS an insufficient time for ,he carrier to view the picturesque situation of the Wild Rye office; nor is this all that is disappreyed by that postmaster. Bo had an idea of hls own how and in what direction the mail should be carried. We are told that he wanted it switched of, after leaving bis office, In the direction of Fort McDowall and it was for that reason be refused to sign a petition for an increased service to Globe, That official, however, has the eonso- lation of knowing tbat he Is not bound to De & postmaster. He has the priv. IIege of resigping, and can throw up the office without resorting to an  emetic, and thus rid himsclfof the an uoyance of the postmaa's knock.

The Wilcox stoekman speaks ap- proyingly of two yonng San Carlos Apache bucks, recently returned from the Carlisle, Pa, Ind,su school. The education of Indians for q term of years at schools established for that puteose in the East, is of doubtful ex- pediency in the opinion of most per sons who have had opportunities of observing its effect on the Indian character Indians, during two or three years attendance at tbese schools acquire moderately proficient knowl- edge of the English language, and many ideas, from the whites, not de- sirable. After their return to the reservation they almost invariably rctregrade to ther former habits, and are often discordant spirits in their tribe, stirring up strife and netting rebellion. The enly way to educate an Indian is to separate him from his tribe, when young, teach him to labor with bis hands, and when capable ot supporting himself, set him adnft in the East to earn living. To allow him to return 10 his tribe IS to destroy all that has been accomplished towards making him more intelligent and self supporting.
