TortnRfa the Banker.

y striking instance of the elevation
of q person from humble to exalted
circumstances is found in the life of
fortonia. celebrated banker of Rome,
whose father was nothing more than a
9alet De place, or guide. who showed
about strangers for hire. Tortonia,
who was an active, intelligent young
man. at first entered into business in a
small way as jeweler. In course of
time he became a sort of banker; and
an unexpected circumstance brought
him in contact with Cardinal Chiara-
monti. On the death of Pope Plus VI,
u conclave was to be held at Venice for
the election of a new Pope. Chiara-
uonti had expectations of being elect
"a to the vacant office, but he was un-
able to attend the conclave for the
want of money. In this emergency he
was supplied with a few hundred
crowns by Tortonia. The cardinal now
repaired to Venice, where, in the
Church of st. George, he was electsd
Pope. under the title of Plus VII. In
gratitude for this act of service the
sovereign pontiff on his return to Rome
appointed TOrtonia banker to the court.
He was created a Marquis and after
wards Duke, and became one of the
richest capitalists in Europe.-N. Y.

TRANS-MISSISSIPPI CONNER
CIAL CONGRESS.

During the Trades Display held at Gal
weston, Texas, from February 7th to l0tt
exclusive, a meeting of the represent
atives of seventeen States and Terrjtor
les west of the Mississippi was led, al
which arrangements were made for
holding Trans Mississippi Commercial
Congress, to be composed OF delegates
from al the States and Territories west
of the Mississippi. Several cities com
peted for the hunor of entertaining the
Convention, among the members being
Wichita, Kansas City and Denver. A mai
ority having voted for Denver. The Cham
Der of Commerce Of this city mas under
taken to do all things necessary to make
the Congress a success. The outlook for
a very large and general attendance is
extremely fatteriug. The meeting at
Galveston provided for the basis of
representation by the adoption of the
following:
Reso we'd. That the basis for repre-
sentatlon for future sessions of this Con-
gress shall be: Thirty delegates at
large from each State and Territory, to
be appointed by the Governor thereof;
one delegate from each County to be
appointed by tho County Commissioners
ther of; enc delegate from each City,
and one additional delegate for each TO-
600 or fraction thereof in excess ct 10000
of the population thereof, to be appoint
ed by the Mayor thereof; ten delegates
from each Board of Trade Chamber of
Commerce or other commercial organi
zatior, to be selected by sucn bodies as
they may elect; that all railroad compan
les operating west of the Mississippi
River shall be entitled to two delegates
each, and that they be earnestly urged
to be represented, to the end that just
may be reached between
the people and the great transportation
lines OF the West and Southwest.
This subject should be carefully con-
sidered by the Tucson Board of Trade,
and if its advantages warrant attendance
measures should be taken look
ing towards fitting representation be-
ing present in Denver to represent the
interests not only of Tucson
AT Of all Southern Arizona. Perhaps
a better proposition yet would oe to
have concerted aud united action be-
tween the several boards of the Terri
tory and thus have Arizona represented
as a whole.

Strange Revolution in Wo-

cans Dare Adopt 1t?

Some predict that great change in
the fashioning of the clothes which are
to be worn by woman this coming season
is the most wonderful victory of the
nineteenth century-if fashion leaders
can be induced to adopt it, and appear
just once in public so arrayeu.
Men will hold their breath in wonder
at the marvellous change 1t makes in
lovely woman. "Few of the, fair sex can
help being beautiful in these glove-fit-
ting customs" says writer in recent
number of the New York and Paris
Young Ladies' Fashion Bazaar. This
magazine is the only one IN Europe or
America which makes a speciality Of
giving those inclined to stoutness an
unrivalled appearance of sculptured slim
ness" said Her Royal Hlghness the
Princess of Wales. Madame Patti has
ordered from the Parls house four mag
nificent costumes, the designs OF which
appear I'D the April number of this
Fashion Bazar-and in this magazine
only.
Mrs. Harrison is greatly fascinated
with the exquisite gem, costume No. 4,
in the April number. 1t is expected she
will give an order for an exact counter
part of it, the whole front of which will
be incrusted with pin ahead diamonds
This gown alone will be worth kings

Fos more than one hundred Years
this country has offered extraordinary
inducements for foreign immigrants TO
come over, aud has given them the same
rights and privileges as though they
were born in this country. In many in
stances these rights have been abused.
II is a well-known fact that nearly all
the riots that have taken place n this
country haze been lnaugurated by men
OF foreign birth. We invite foreigners
10 this country to work, TO help us build
up our country, settle up our waste
lands, and become self-supporting and
useful citizens. But a great many OF
them are hardly warmed in their seats
before they want TO be Mayor of the
town, Chief of Police, or to hold some
other important or lucrative Office, that
will furnish good salary, with chance
Tor plenty of pickings. In some cities
in tie East they have become SO power
ful that they have gained full control
of affairs. Still worse is this influence,
when it is remembered that large per-
centage of these arrivals are men who
have left their country for the ldtter's
good. And vet America is called upon
to apologize, aye, and reimbuse foreign
power when it's criminals meet with an
accident at the hands Of an exasperated
populace. Foreigners, of the better class
will find America a desirable county to
live in. but the criminal element will
find it the reverse.

The Supreme Court of Missouri has
given decision that is of more than'pas-
sing interest to mining men, IN that II
holds that the claim originally monu-
mented holds rrecedeucy over a correct
I'd survey. In the case in point the
plaintiff and defendant owned adjoining
mining lots. Defendant mined guam
tity of ore on the side Of his lot next tn
plaintiff; a corrected survey OF tLe
whole tract showed that the land from
which this ore was taken was within
the true lines of plaintiffs :lot, and he
brought forcible entry and detalner
against defendant. The evidence snow
ed that VIII ~ the parties went iuto pos
session the lots were marked by stakes,
and thai defendants operations had
been confined to his own lot as originally
staked off. These stakes were as a mat
ter of law, monuments, which must pre-
vail over the courses and distances of
ohe subsequently corrected survey.
