Tie Fifteenth Legislative Assembly

On ihe third Monday in January next, at Prescott, the capitol of Ari- zona, the fifteenth legislative assem- ply will convene. The legislative assembly consists of twenty-four nIelfsbbfs of the house of reprcsen- tatiyes and twelve members of the council. Thel revised statutes of Arizona pTovidGsbffJB mqmbcrs ol the legislative assembly, -o6.the ter ritory shall be elected bgrudvaaties, and at the general election 10 be holden on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, 1888, and every two years thereafter, and until a different apportionment be made, agreeable to law, the county of Apache shall elect one member of the council and two members of the house of representatives. The present apportionmcnt was made in 1883 by what is commonly known as the Bolan bill, which gives a member of the council to every county, and divides the territory into two council districts, composed of five counties each, from which a joint member of the council is to be elected.
 The next legislative assembly will probably be the most important held in the territory. Matters of grave importance will be the sub icct of legislative consideration.
 The revised statutes of Arizona, sometimes called the Texas Code" is full of errors and inconsistencies and should be revised. Every law yer and layman, who has examined it, can point out gIaring inconsis- tencies, and show wherein 1t should be amended.

The Correct Time.

There are very few men who do not
pride themselves ON always having the
correct time; and wonderful and delicate
mechanisms are devised to enable them
to do so. But the more delicate a chrou-
ometer is made. the more subject it be-
comes to arrangement, and unless it be
kept always perfectly clean, it soon loses
its usefulness. What wonder, then, that
the human machine-so much more deli
cate and intricate than any work of Man
should require to be kept thoroughly
cleansed. The liver is the handspring
of this complex structure, and on the
impurities left in the blood by disor-
dered liver, depend most of the ills that
flesh is heir to. Even consumption (Which
is luug scrofula, } is traceable to the i'm.
perfect action of this organ. Kidney dis
eases, skin diseases, sick headache, heart
disease, dropsy, and long catalogue OF
grave maladies have their origin in a
torpid, or sluggish liver. DR.. P,erce's

by more distinguished people than any
remedy extant, for all kinds of Pain and
Inflammation, letters were sent TO the

Ponds Extract. They knew of the excel.
lence of Ponds Extract, and nearly all
used it and recommended it. With their
permission, we will publish, from time to
