One time there was a monarch:
Dull was his eye, gray was his hair;
This poor old tottering monarch
He married a lady fair.

A page his court was serving;
Blonde was his hair gay was his mien;
The silken train he carried
OF his enchanting queen.

So sweet. yet oh SO sad to tell
They had to die so early
For loving far too well.

4 Chinese Riot.

From the Japan Gazette comes
 an account of a big riot between
 two factions of Chinese coolies in
 Bangkok. The first outbreak oc-
 cured on the 18th ultimo, when
 the two bodies, known respectively
 as Mo- 1 Society and No. ? Society.
 had an encounter without much damage However, on the follow ing morning, says the Japan Gag ette, "the occupants of 150 cargo boats that were lying by the side of the English steamer Hecate at q given signal rose en masse and clam bered on the Hecate's decks. Each coolie was armed with some sort of a weapon, either spear, trident, fire arm or sword, and their peremptory storming of the Hecate, to the no small consternation of the Captain and officers, was with the object of annihilating their opponents, whom they thought were working on board. On being informed to the contrary they left for the shore, and getting behind their Notifications on the main road, opened the attack upon No. 2 Society with a volley from the firearms and shower of stones and other missiles.
 Several times during the day the belligerents, numbering altogether about five thousand, came to close quarters, when the spears and tri- l dents were used with terrible effect | numbers being killed on the spot, while the many wounded managed | to escape and get their injuries at tended to. The coolies fought more ike demons than human beings /; hey were more or less under the influence of drink, their barbarity being simply hideous to behold.

Why Surprised.

Certain newspapers are pleased to affect surprise at the simple fact
 (simple because of the guileless- ness of the Captain of the United States revenue cutter Rush ], that the Black Diamond recently cap, tured in the act of illicit seal-catch- ing in Behring Sea, instead of duti- fully sailing into an American port, as per orders of the Rush's Captain, the commander ot the Black Dia- mond, being master of self and ship, naturally sailed into British port, as any one would have done under like circumstances.
 The action of the Black Diamond is the more surprising to the afore- said newspapers, from the astonish- ing circumstance, that after her cap, ture, the Captain of the Rush ac- tually, but inoonsiderately, weak ened the naval force of our great republic, by placing on board the captured vessel, a great part of the United States navy, for the purpose of taking the prize into an Ameri- can port. We are willing to admit of mild surprise on our part. But our surprise, at the aspect of this whole matter, mainly consists in this fact, that the British Captain of the Black Diamond did not pitch the American navy CD overheard, and go on about his business in this, and nothing else, is our only surprise. Had the blarsted Johnny Bull wantonly sacrificed our naval fighting force, which he so consid erately refrained from doing, it would have devolved upon Secre tary Tracy to at once issue an or der, directing the immediate enlist ment of another able-bodied sea man. What direful calamities are so simply, and, perhaps, thought lessly averted

they held the body aloft on their spear points, demoniacally grinning the while, showing the fearful lot that might befall others who fell into their clutches. Although these fearful crimes were being commit ted, 1t must be said that the con- hict was confined to the members of the two societies, no European being attacked.
 Next day a thousand native Sia- mese troops and some mounted men charged the mob and ,after bay oneting numbers of the coolies, brought the rioters to terms. Nine hundred of them were captured. As they were caught, each man s arms were tied behind his back with his own pigtail, such a posture be- ing simply torture for the poor wretches. Coolies were even found in the troughs Of pigstyes in the vicinity, their bodies, with the ex- ception of their nasal organs, being completly submerged in the foul smelling pigwash.

boom or Statehood by the passage
 of a law providing for a Convention
 to frame State Constitution for
 Arizona, the scheme has fallen fat. and the few newspapers which favor 1t are talking to empty
 benches. The people of the Terri tory do not look upon the move
 ment with any degree of favor, re- cognizing that it is premature and that nothing is to be gained by framing State Constitution and electing officers under it. Such weak expedients will not accelerate the admission of Arizona into the Union. The fact that Arizona elected Democrat delegate to Congress by a majority of 3,S34, out of a total vote of only 11,538, will not recommend her to a Re- publican Congress.

Through the PecOS to Fl PaSO.

For some time it has been the aim of a number of trunk lines to reach El Paso, Tex, by shorter route than any yet traversed, and the Santa Fe, Rock Island and Fort Worth lines some time ago made surveys and commenced the construction of lines across the Staked Plains of Texas, all headed in an air line for El Paso. The Santa Fe completed its line as far as Panhandle City, when its funds ran out and the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe constructed as far as San Angelo, about the center of Texas, when it stopped for lack of funds. All of these uncompleted lines are practically worthless until com- pleted and recently the old project of reaching El Paso through the fer tile Valley of the Pecos, which is becoming rapidly settled up, has been revived. The Fort Worth line while not having any dead line on their hands, had completed a sur vey and is also in the deal.
 
 The plan is for the Santa Fe to complete their line to Washburn on the Fort Worth from Panhandle City, only a short distance, and for the Rock Island to extend their line from Liberal to the same point and the three lines to then unite in build ing joint track to Fl Paso. The proposed line will take in the set tied portions of the Pecos Valley, and this, with the through business from the connections at Fl Paso, will make it paying line from the start, while there would perhaps not be enough business for three independent lines.
 The preliminary details for car rying this scheme into effect have already been completed, and 1t is expected that the line will be con- Structed this coming winter. En- yineers are in the field now making he final surveys. This will give Denver another connection with and will open up a large amount of undeveloped territory. An independent company is also planning a line down the Pecos rom a point on the Santa Fe near Las Vegas--Denver News.

THE Journal-Miner makes quite
 flourish of trumpets over part of the proceedings of our last term of court, and part of a term held some two years ago. That paper has not the manliness to publish all the facts, however, in these cases. It shows its vindictiveness, because the Court allowed three youths, at the earnest solicitation and entreaty of the parties aggrieved, and on motion of the District Attorney in open court, to plead guilty to a less offence than was charged in the in- dictment. We think the Court and its officers only exhibited the hu- manity that every individual should possess in their action in these cases. This is by no means the first instance in which such d course has been pursued. The same ac- ton has been had in hundreds of cases before. The Journal-M Miner knows this but thinks 1t can make

IT IS reported that Joseph H. Kibbey has been appointed Asso- cIate Justice of Arizona. There have been numerous inquiries as to who Mir. Kibbey is, and where from. The Tombstone Epitaph says he is from Indiana, and has resided in the Territory for 15 long months. The gentleman was sent out by a few capitalists of that State to look after the legal interests of the Flor ence Land and Canal Company, the majority of the stock of that cor poration being owned in Indiana. This will account for his appoint ment. He is from Indiana, was the legal adviser in this Territory of Indiana capitalists, and, as a mat ter of course, could serve their in- terests better on the bench than at the bar.
