The death of Mrs. Pierce Butler, nee Fanny Kemble, at the age of eighty four, is announced. After marrying Butler she abandoned the stage and consequently her charming presence was lost to the theater-going public As an actress she was special favor ite of Andrew Jackson, and during her wonderfully attractive performances, in Washington, he seldom failed to at tend as spectator After becoming the wife of Butler, in 1884, she pub lished her memoirs in which she pre- dicted that the United States twill be a monarchy before am skeleton. !" She was English you Enow,n and that prediction may be attributed So her bias in favor of her native land. She criticized what she had seen in America with a free hand, and no one thought the less of her, and excused her on the ground that twas Fanny's way.

THE SILVER sIruArIox.

The improved tone of the silver market s,due to the heavy exports of bullion to Europe, which for the first two weeks of January amounted to over &, 900, 900, and for the year 1892 to S23, ,29s ,e16. An officer of the san sas City Smelling and Refining Com pany attributes she movement to nat ural demands of the trade and prediets that it will ultimately reach China and India. The fact that foreign nations are steadily buying our silver in such large quantities when it is so little thought of at home, leads to the as- sumption that it's opponents in this country are rather overdoing the mat ter in their anti-silyer literature. In consumptive circles there has not ar peared to be that same dreaded dis trust which financial writers are almost universally piotuting. Some very good judges believe that the si6uason has been discounted in the price of the metal, and, consequently, that the bot tom has been reached.

Briefs in an interesting and impor- tant case were suOrnibted last Saturday in the supreme court at Phenix. It is that of Emma J. Gonzales, appellant, Ys. E, w. French and J. E, Jones as trustees for the inhabitants of Flag staff. The action ersw out of claim by the plaintiff to the land covered by about half the town of Flagstaff
 There seems to be no doubt, says the Republican, that the plaintiff s case is utterly without foundation yet the lit. igation is decidedly annoying to prop erty owners holding lands in he dis puted territory.

 i has been rapidly coi.-...
 until, at one time, if seemed 10 ue on
 the point of becoming completely de
 morahzed. The reason of this disas- trous decline, sSys an Eastern ex-
 change, can hardly be determined
 with any great degree of confidence, but it may possibly be the consump-
 tion of invisible stocks that were dis | persed after the failure of the French syndicate. How far this source may
 be looked to as partial explanation
 of the persistent sluggishness of cop per, mJ y be in god from the fact Il at
 the metal is beginning to show
 strength concurrently with the gener-
 ally accepted belief that the invisible
 stocks of copper in France have
 bee one entirely exhausted. This
 is further proved by the fact that notwithstanding the rapidly increasing consumption of corper in Europe there has been scarcely any impression made
 upon the visible stocks until the past few months; indeed they were .oersis- tently increasing, and after a tempo rary standstiu they havt lately shown g tendency towards decline. There are other reasons for assuming with confidence that the position of copper is likely to become pronounced and permanent in it's character, especially in view of the considerable extension of electrical installations in the con- struction of which copper so largely enters. With such vast field open to the consumption of copper as is repre- sented by the progress of electrical science, it seems difficult to conceive of any other future for copper than one of steady prosperity. tn the past the metal has had to meet with serious competition from certain alloys, which have entirely superseded it in some branches of industry, and the partial substitution of iron for copper in ship building also deprived it of valuable opening for profitable consumption. But as copper has found it's use re stricted in many Of its old spheres. there is every reason to believe that new openings, net less important are
 .estined to recoup mine owners for the losses which some of them have undoubtedly sustained, and while electrical engineering continues to make such phenomenal progress, it is mainly in this direction that owners of copper mines must look for prosperity in the future. Another phase of in dustry which they can not but regard 1 with satisfaction is the considerable quantity of sulphate which is finding employment in agriculture As pro. lection to vines and other pro1ncts ! liable to destruction from blight, sul- 1 phate or copper has amply demon strated it's efficiency; and it's increas. ing use as an insecticide will afford a 1 means of profit to copper producers that can not fail to exercise a healthy | influence upon the industry.

The announcement of tbs death oi Tx President Of the United States, Rutherford B. Hayes, on the I7th. was a great surprise as it had not been pre- ceded by information of his serious ill- ness. His right to the highest office in the land was strenuously disprted, yet his administration, while exhibiting none of the clements of greatness or briliianey, is nevertheless conceded to have been conservative and tended to relieve the strained relations caused by his elevation to the presidency, and to paeify the South.

w w. Horton, of New York, pro- moter of the great irrigation scheme in the southern part of Mojave coun- ty, was in Kingman this week. It is the intention of the syndicate to dam Bill Williams Fork in Striped canyon, below the confluence of the Santa Maria. From the reservoir thus made fifteen miles of steel pipe three feet in diameter will be taken. Thousands of of acres of rich lands will be re- claimed and planted in orchards, vine- yards, etc, and then all surplus water will be carried on to the placer fields east of the old town of Ehrenberg. This is one of the latest irrigation

 Then came the end and sad one. It began with news from Louisiana. Ii was tale of despair, disaster and death.

 The United States is more fortunate. Her notable schemes flor turning aa honest penny, were not so great as to entitie them to an abiding place in his tory. The Credit MobIher, is however net soon to bo forgotten, inasmuch as it engaged tho attention of Congress. and became part of its history. Blaine, then Speaker of the House, in 1872, called attention to the charges made hy Democratic orators and news. papers during the Presidential cam paigns, respecting alleged bribery of  number of members of that body by Oakes Ames, who by acceptance of a quantity of stock presented to them by a corporation known as the Credit Mobilier, to influence their legislative action for the benefit of the Union Pacific Railroad Company.
 The Salary grab at the Congressional session of 1S7l-3 caused no little agi- tation, but like the Credit Mobelier was whitswsshsd by Congress, but never thelsss Presidential timbsr was sadly damaged.

 - notes to coin aAd they com handed premium.
 At the time Law was running his bank there existed several French trading companies, to-wit The East India Company, the Guinea Company and the Chinese Trading Company. Law then organized the Western Com pany with a capital of O0,0O0, GOO francs. State notes were at discount of 70 per cent, but Law agreed to take them at par in payment for stock. Law bought the control of Louisiana and all the basin of the Mississippi and it's tribu- ta4ies, 'ss boundaries cf which were vague. Law also issued shares of the Indian Company to the amount of 0,00o,000 francs payable in specie. The Western shares were above par aRd were called mothers" and tho In- dian shares, daughters. In 1719 Law bought tobacco monopoly and rented the salt mines of Alsaee, and undertook to collect all State taxes and paid 50, GOO, 900 livrss for nine years right to coin money for the Kirg and manage the mint.
 The shares of the companies treblsd in value, and printing presses were kept working day and night printing nsw (vstered) stock On the plea that 50,000, GOO livres were needed to pay the State for the coinrRg privilege, Sae Council authorized the company to issue 90, GOO more shares. These new shares were called granddaughter, and the mad scramble to gst them -nshed sp the price of the "mothsrs" ana daughters.
 Itsasmsd a golden age for France. All kinds2 State paper was at par, and the ,5o of prosperity seemed to 1 shine all ey I the land. Law was the master bei,,, tho leading spirit, in nll ! these sr@at enterprises. He was the .ol of t4s people and was hailed as the savior of FraEee. Money came from the lasants' petty hoard to buy his shares. and ancient family plate was melted ,d carried to be exchanged for hls sscu ities. He offered to raise l,5O0, 00Q, 900 livres and lend it to the Government at per cent to pay of | the national debt This offer was ac. ceptsd, for Law claimed that by his plan the State would save annually oyer 30,000, 900 in interest. To raise the money the company issued shares, the proceeds of which, with premiums, reached the enormous amount of 800. 900, 900 livres. All this came from the people and practically passed through the hands of John Law, gambler and sx-convict.
 All France went mad in a wild de- iirium of speculation when the new shares for the State loan were issued. The shares were sold by auction in the Rue Quihcanpoiz, narrow street only 15O fss5 in length. Men fought like wild beasts in their efforts to reach the place where the shares were sold aad some were trsmpled to death by the frSRzisd mob.
 When the company had sold all the shares there were fifty wonld-be pur- chasers to every lucky oAs who had been able to buy. Then began such Gn insaAe buying and selling as the world he'd never seen. The streets in the commercial center of the city were full of men, yelling their offers to buy, and otAer men shouting their offers to :. Many women were there also,
