The long heraIded sparring match between Joe McAnlife, California s pride, and the Australian champion, Peter Jackson. cOlered, was decided at the rooms Of the California Athletic Club, in San Francisco, on the even ing of December 18th, and greatly to the surprlse and chagrin of the Pacific coast sports, Jackson proved the win ner. In fact the fighting from start to finish was all in the Australian s favor. He played fierce tattoo on McAulihe's s head and body, putting in heavy blows seemingly when and where he pleased.and McAulife' great Slze and strength was all that saved him from repeated knock-downs. The Californian proved game and lasted through twenty-four rounds before receiving the coup de grace. Not withstanding bjssSvantage in height eff two inches, NcAuliffe's blows nearly all fell short, and a slight abrasion under one eye was the only punish ment winch Jackson showed after the fight. There is no question of his prowess and science as fighter, and he is undoubtedly fit to meet either Sul- livan or Kilrain. If the latter makes good his offer to fight the winner of the late contest. a rattling mill may be expected.

The Engineering and Mining Jsur- nal, just to hand, says: Ths sensation of he week, which still continues to absorb the attention Of everybody in the trade, are the pending negoti2- tions between the French Syndicate and the principal copper producers in this country, with the object Of super seding the present contracts by new contracts for an extended term, of 10 to 12 years, at a guaranteed fixed price of 14c. per pound. The propo- sition appears ts be rather favorahly received by the principal producers, and we are informed that an arrange ment in accordance there with has al- most been concluded. Should these new contracts be actually signed, it seems very likely that the price of copper will see further advance in this country.

TEE HAYTEES AFEA72.

The naval engagement, December 21st, between the United States of North America and the Haytien Re public was remarkable fer the miserly economy of powder, shot and shell. Not dollars worth was expendsd on either side. The eloctrlc wire has this to say ln reference to the bloodless affair:
 The Galena and Yaatlc steamed Tn the harbor of Pert-au-Prince Decem- Der 20th with shetted guns and ter pedo bombs. The shlps cleared for action and the crews standing at quar- ters to demand the instant release of the steamer Haytien Republic. On their arrival in the outer harbor Rear Admiral Luce transferred his flag te the Yautic which was then run slowly into the inner harber to within hun dred feet of the docks where the Hay tien Republic was at anchor Aneher was dropped and the stern line at once attached to the Haytien Republic. The guns Of the Yantic belng trained on the city the Galena remained in the outer harbor with breadside and pIvot guns tsainsd on the Haytien man-of- war Dessalines, and prepared to fire at the first hostile demonstration of the Dessahnes. The crew also steed at the gnls1 Lieut.. Griffin went ashore with Contamination from the State Department and Admlral Luce de- manding the release, within 4 hours. of the detained steamer. President Legitlme, thoroughbred coon, find ing no delay would bo tolerated, un- der formal protest and appeal for future arbitration, commanded one of his gun boats to tow the Haytien Re rubhc to a position in the outer bar Dor. A formal return was net made until the next day. The release was most opportune, from the fact that Legitime had contracted to sell the Haytien Republic to the Atlas line.
 And thus was tie necessity obYla- ted for the ferocious Yankees, aboard of tue Galena, te blaze away at Port au-Prince and its intrepid and vigilant defenders There has been an expense incurred. Hayti should, anl doubt less will, be called upon to pay the piper. She is amply able to dc so. Her productions are coffee, tobacco, cotton, sugar, cocea, wax, gingar, ma hogany and haywood. The island is 400 miles long and 160 miles wide. The soil IS productive to a fabulous degree.

Are We to zzn7e Anat,.er war2

Some political prophets aver that we shall. Be that as it may, the battle waged by medical science against disease will never cease until We arrive at that utopian epoch when the human family shall cease t3 be afflicted with bodily ail- ments. One of the most potent wearons which the armory of medicine furnishes, is Hostetter's Stomach Bitte.s, which is of special utility as family remedy, as 1t is adapted to the iinmediate relief and ultimate cure cf those disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels which are of commonest occurrence. Indigestion, bil iousness and Constipation are ,nseparabie companions, aud these ailments are com plctely eradicated by the Bitteis. But the remedial scope of this superlativelY wholesome and genial medicine takes in also nervous ailments, rheumatism and kidney troubles; its action in these, as in the other complaints, being characterized by unequaled thoroughness.

The legislature of New Mexico, says the Gallup Register, will be asked to pass law requiring all fresh meat sold or used in the Territory to be in- spected on the hoof before it is slaugh- tered. A similar movement is form ing in Arizona, we understand, the object being to prevent the sale of Eastern dressed beef In our markets. No doubt some such measure will pass the legislature, but we would suggest that towns isolated from a railroad be exempted, since in such cases local butchers need fear no com petition from the outside, and to re- quire the inspection of beef cattle un- der such conditions would be entirely unnecessary, and a useless expense and annoyance.

LET Us WAIT,

Some of our Territorial exchanges are making all sorts of ridiculous es- inmates of the present population of Ar1zona and speculating on what it will be four or five years hence, one paper asserting that within a period of five years we will have 100000 pep ulatisn. Certainly there is nothing in the past record of the Territory te make such an increase probable. No sensible person will make such wild conjecture plea for inaugurating a movement looking to Arlzena's ad- mission as State few years hence.
 We believe an era of activity m mlnlng and agriculture is about to 5egln with us, and we look for large aceessions to our population, but it will be time enough to agitate State- hood after the beem has fairly started and we can predict the future of Ari- zona with mora confidence than at present. If we have the requisite population Q51 1,912) to entitle us to fnll rssresentatien in Congress five years -nsnee, it will have been the measure of as great prosperity as we can reasonably hope for.
 Of course there will be a new appor- tienmsnt af.er the census et 1890, and the population limit entitling a Terri tory to become a State will be raised. but Congress has never shown any disposition to be exacting in respect to the mum Der of inhabitants Terri tory applying for admission has, pro- vided it can show an approximate number to that required by law, and a satisfactory degree of prosperity, and we have no doubt that when Arizona reaches that condition there will be no difficulty found in securing the recsg nitien of her claims by Congress.

The Prescott Journal Miner. com menting on the increased inquiry for mining investments in that section, gives seme excellent advice to mine owners. It urges the necessity eff working their clalms with all the en- ergy possible, as the better a claim is developed the greater the probability eff its sale. In fact, unless a mine is pretty well exploited and has a per ceptibls value, the chances of its sale are peer indeed. There are tee many claims held from year to year without goed, honest assessment work being dene upon them, and it is the custom with some to not even pretend to do the annual work required by law, but to relocate thelr claims at the begin ming et each year. The Stewart bill, If it becomes a law, will put stop to this discreditable practice. There is another class of mine owners that de-, serve censure. namely, those owning properties knewn to bs valuable, and who, nevertheless, will neither sell at fair price, nor work the mines themselves. We have them in Globe District, CT more correctly speaking, such msn own valuable properties here winch miners competent to judge believe could be worked with profit to the owners and great benefit to the district.

The Star shoull study copper sta tlstics. It claims that Arizona pre- duces more copper than any State CT Territory in the Union, which is very wide of the truth. The Calumet & Hecla mine produced before the re- cent fire 2500 tons per month, and its output is greater now than that of all Arizena's mines combined. The Ana conda's production exceeds that of the Calumet & Hecla.
