Nir%hmhh--ThG First Battle or the Wilder
 ncss-Scene of StoncwalI Jackson's Death.
 Especial Correspondencel
 GUINEA STATION, Va, Aug. 6.--Haying crossed Spottsy1yania, tho champion battle county of America, in three directions, I was still not satisfied with my battlefield studies, for my locality" as Fowler calls the bump, is so poor that can form but a miserable conception of any place I have not seen. As to writing about q place I have not seen on all sides-well, I am wretchedly dependent on facts and inferior to the silkworm in that I cannot spin "good stuff" out of my own insides.
 So decided to start at Meade's winter quarters of 1864 and follow Grants move, ments milo by mile from Culpeper to Cold Harbor, and down to date I have been richly repaid, for the view alone of the first named place and county is well worth the journey. "Old Culpeper," by the way, is and long has been classic ground to the people of my native section, and the name was common in our mouths early in the forties, for it was the birth place of the first really great man devel- oped in the middle section of the Wabash valley-Colonel Richard W. Thompson. How many long winter evenings in tho sessions of tho old time courts did he en-
 
 how much he did to create tho general be- lief in antebellum times that all the chiv- airy and personal honor and high toned hospitality of all ages reached their perfect flower in Piedmont Virginia.
 A Picturesque Scene.
 And truly tho county is beautiful. Hay ing toiled up the slope eastward of the "cotehaouse," as they call tho county seat in Virginia, paused on the summit and could scarcely repress shout on feeling that delightful swelling of tho chest which often comes with the'first view of a grand prospect. For 20 miles or more in sight, northward, southward and westward, the country rises swell on swell with lovely wales between to the detached subranges of the Blue Ridge, while eastward it declines in successively lower, ridges and broader fertile slopes, thickset with dark green corn, now in its prettiest stage of growth, waving and sparkling in the August sum- shine. From this point nearly the whole county can bo seen, and the mountains to the west show hero and there in blue sections, which are only distinguished from the feather edged clouds by their regular and un-

Memorial Day Proclamation.
TERRITORY OF ARIZoNA)
 EXECUTJVE OFFJCE

For more than a quarter of century it has been the custom of our people to observe May S0th as Memorial Day, and in harmony there with national and territorial legislation has es- tablished this as public holiday, dedicated to the memory of those who wrought out through the wager of battle the principles that all men are born free; that the states are members of an indestructible union; and that this republic shall not perish from the earth. This should be day of patriotic sentiment and love of country, @ day which, will be the oil of gladness to the wounds caused by the terrible conflict, and if there be those who would keep alive acrimonies engendered by the war, let our invocation be "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do''
 May all minds be inspired and all hearts pull sate with sentiments of reconciliation and 1 love.
 'No more shall the war cry sever
 Or the winding rivers be red, l They banish our anger forever When they laurel the graves our dead,
 Under the sod and the dew, Waiting the Judgment day; Love and tears for the blue, | Tears and love for the gray"
 Now, therefore, I, Louis c. Hughes, Gov ernor of the Territory of Arizona, in view of the day and it's purposes, do hereby recom- mend that the people observe the same in beftting manner, joining with the surviving members of the Grand Army of the Republic in their memorial servlce, and in strewing flowers on the graves of their departed con- rades; thus encouraging reflection on the duties Of patriots in time of the country's peril, and animate the spirit of charity and reconciliation in time Of peace, that every section of our Republic may be 'one and in separabe.
 Done at Phonix, the Capital, this 18th day of May, in the year of our Lord, 1885,

DR.. Theo. b. Comstock, in his
capacity as director OF the bureau Of
mines and geologist, has made many
tests of Arizona gold ores. He finds,
as stated in his report to the board Of
regents of the University, that we
have three classes Of such ores:-Q)
those which are really "free" ores;
~ an intermediate class, partly "free"
and partly "sulphuret'; and l3) the
"Sulphuret" ores. Many miners, who
get colors in the pan or horn spoon,
and who afterward get good assays
from their ore, are disappointed at
the low percentage saved in the mill
ing process. This is usually because
they have overlooked fve-grained
black sulphide which forms Il consider
able portion Of the ore, although it
may not be visable in the rock. Dr.
Comstocb is satisfied from his inves-
LEGATIONS, that the working Of gold
ores in Arizona is yet in its initial
stages, for there are deposits enough,
rich enough and extensive enough to
tempt the Investment Of large capital,
guiced by thoughtful and economical
engineering talent, when once the
ores are understood.-Citizen.

Thrd-As to the repeal Of the ten
per cent TAI on state banks. That
tax cannot be well defended. 1t is an
undemocratic tax. Ostenslbly, it is
imposed for revenue, but it does not,
in fact, bring in any revenue, and was
never intended fer that purpose. From
a democratic standpoint, its impo-
sition is an abuse of the taxing power.
! should not like to 90 upon record in
favor Of such a tax, nor do desire to
refuse a repeal of it. / regard that
tax question as an independent one,
which has little bearing upon the main
great question OF free coinage of silver,
and they should be kept apart as much
as possible. While that tax cannot be
approved from a democratic stand
point, fear the consequences Of a re-
peal. AS 1 understand it, it has been
held that congress has not power, di-
rectly, to prohibit state banks from
issuing their notes, which circulate as
money, although they cannot be made
legal tender and are not nioney iu fact.
do not like such wildcat currency,
and never did. l do not think we
ought to become champions of it.
While, perhaps, we should take the
ground that the states should be at
liberty to issue such notes il they de-
sired to do so, yet such issue should
not be encouraged. We should not be
switched off from the gold and silver
issue upon any such side track. fear
the experiment of wildcat state bank
currency will not be "a success. 1t
may be temporary relief, but in the
end will be disasterous. The bank
notes of so many states will be so
worthless that while in New York or
Georgia they might be perfectly good
always, yet in go many other states
they would be so bad that,,thb whole
circulation would be diScredited. You
win observe from what l have stated
that l advise we should move cautious
ly in regard to the state bank tax and
not mix it up with the legal tender
currency question.
Fourth-As to tariff reform. l do
not apprehend any serious difficulty in
this matter. There will be a general
unanimity as TO the bills which passed
the last democratic house and which
were refused consideration in the SEN
ate Whatever bills the treasury de-
partment may recommend / think are
likely to be passed We must make a
little tariff reform go great way.
The condition of the treasury will not
admit of much reduction, except in
those cases where a reduction is likely
to produce more needed revenue. l
do not think we need lie awake nights
at all anticipating trouble from the
tariff question l doubt the policy of
restoring the sugar tax. Our people
have come to regard sugar as one of
the necessities and com forts of life,
and they want it us cheap as possible.
Let the tariff he retained on those
articles which come in competition
with our own workmen If it is neces-
sary to secure more revenue.
These are my views, hastily eX-
pressed, and, Of course, always subject
to modification after consultation with
Eparty friends. While like to adhere
to my own views as well as any one, in
party affairs l believe in the old doc
trine; I'm essentials unity, in non
essentials liberty, and in all things
charity" | Iremain, very truly yours,
