Those Tax Cases.

The tax cases which have occupied the
attention OF the Supreme Court during
this session involve questions which seri-
ously affect the northern counties, and
indicate that there is absolute want OF
valid assessment against the Atlantic q
Pacific Railroad Company. The main
questions seem to be the power to tax the
company's franchise, it's right OF way and
rolling stock the power to enter Judg-
nent for taxes at special term OF court
prior TO the next ensuing term, provided
by statute, after the tax becomes delin-
auent and various actions Of the Terri
torial and County Boards OF Equalization,
concerning and affecting the validity Oh
the assessment, are questioned. The tax
case of Apache county for 1856 was de-
cided. Three other cases were taken
under adyisement. In the case decided
this court expressed grave doubts IS to
the validity Of portion OF the tax, brt a.
the Judgment would be taken TO the
Supreme Court ON other matters, the
Judgment Of the court below was affirmed.
The court indicated that it was the duty
Of the company TO appeal the case so
that the grave and doubtful questions IN
volved might be settled. An appeal was
allowed, the bond fixed and time allowed
TO perfect the appeal.
Attorney-General Rush was assisted by
Harris Baldwin, and the interests Of the
railroad company are being looked after
by Hon. William G. Hazledine, the com
pany's slicitor, and f. VI. Sanford, the
conpany's counsel at Prescott.

cases. az we'll as their yezed and un-
settled condition, in this Territory, sug'
pested TO the court a suspension of the
rules Of one hour to each side, and the

the court for three days, thus giving 70

A bill has been introduced in the Ter
ritorial Council to amend the Insurance.
laws by taxing the premium received on
policies issued by the insurance compa-
nies doing business in the Territory.
Rates OF insurance are very high all over
the Territory, and even at these high
rates the companies reject many risks,
and they care but little for the business
of insurance in Arizona. The bill refer
red to will have the effect to increase the
cost OF insurance, as the companies VIII
add the tax TO the premium. Gentlemen
of the Legislature, don't enact any legis-
lation that will keep insurance companies
from doing business in the Territory or
that will tend to increase the already
high rates, but rather repeal all acts OBJ
jectionable to the companies.

BrOtherly Love and Law.

Count Leo Tolstoi, the Russian poet,
has almost entirely given up literature,
and for several years has devoted himself
to manual occupations and the preaching
to the gospel of temperance, patience
and industry. The following charac-
teristic lately occurred to him in Mos

One day as he was driving through
the streets he saw a constable unmerci-
fully dragging along a peasant for some
offence against the city bylaws. The
Count stopped his carriage, got out, and
walked up to the constable, saying: "Can
you read?" ''Certainly." ''Have you
read the Scripturesz' eyes" Then
don't forget that We are commanded to
love our neighbor as oursef." The
policeman stared at the Count in aston
ishment, and addressed TO him string

SUNSHINE IN THE HEART.

Let US carry our sunshine with us
Wherever our footsteps tend,
Though dark be the clouds above US,
And gloomy the path before.
Let the joys that we once have TREASURED
A joy to the present lend,
And the hope of gladder future
Console till our griefs are DER.
What matter then if skies be dun,
If in our hearts still shines the sun?
Let US carry our sunshine with us!
4 wounded heart it will cheer,
That forgets that the skies are glowing,
So long has their light been yelled;
And a word, if in kindness spoken,
While smiles on the face appear,
May strike the full chords Of sympathy
When all other efforts have failed.
What matter then if skies be dun,
If in our hearts still shines the sun?
George Birdseye.

WISE WORDS.

Economy Is the easy chair of old age.
Though creeds are narrow, know that
truth is wide
No man can fall into contempt but
those who deserve it.
Tie darkest cloud often contains the
most fruitful showers.
That an open enemy is to be respected,
a secret one to be suspected.
He that labors may be tempted by one
devil; but he that is idle is tempted by
a thousand.
Run if you like, but try to keep your
breath Work like man, but don't be
worked to death.
There is some excuse for the man who
has no conscience; it is said that con
science only makes a man cowardly.
Calumny differs from most other in
iuries in this dreadful circumstance; he
who commits it can never repair it.
Why should we open our hearts to the
world? 1t laughs at our weaknesses, it
does not believe in our virtues, it does
not pity our SORROWS.
Sin never ruins but where It rcigns.
1t is not destroying where it is disturb

the less evil it docs US.
think the first virtue is to restrain
the tongue. He approaches nearest to
the gods who knows how to be silent,
even though he is in the right.
The use of the leaves is ended when
they drop from the Dough. They 60 to
make new wood mold, but not until they
have helped the children of the wood to
weather the cold season.
I never had any faith in luck at all,
except that [ believe good luck will carry
man over ditch if he jumps well, and
will put bit of bacon into his pot, if
be looks after his garden and keeps a
pig. Luck generally comes to those who
look after it; and my notion is, it taps
once in lifetime at everybOdy's door,
but if industry does not open it away it
goes.

''There's a genuine Mexican scrapc,"
and the tawny -mustached cX-COngress
man from the Rio Grande shook out, rs
he spoke, the crimson and blue and gold
embroidered folds of one of those unique
frontier blankets of which nearly every
body has read and which so few New
Workers ever saw. 1t was present to
Colonel Ochiltree from a Mexican lady
who had spent three years in identifying
the glowing cXpanse Of finely woven wool
and silk with her own needle. A serape
such as that is about four feet wide and
seven feet long, the delicate threads of
gold and stripes OF royal purple and Grim
son which run through its scarlet expansc
meeting in the centre and at regular in
tervals in picturesque designs of quaint
configuration and tasteful arrangement.
The stuff itself, as it leaves the Mexican
loom, is not as soft as silk nor as light,
but it is thing of beauty and a delight
both to the sight and the touch. The
materials and the dyes are all native Mexi-
can products. Worn over her head, the
senorita peeps through the folds of the
scrape in a bewitching way and finds
them enhancing her good looks, while
the senior, with his swarthy face and neck
half buried in the same folds, and wear
