MT Zepeta, an enterprizing merchant of AL tar, Sonora, has lately opened wagon road from Altar to Port Lobos, on the Gulf, and erected a warehouse there. He is now occu- pied in connecting Altar by wagon road with the settled portion of Arizona. Should the Mexican government permit the opening Of this port and allow free transit through the country, Lobos will become the seaport of Ari- xona, being distant from Tubac and Tucson about 200 miles We have no doubt but the port would be opened and free transit guaran- tied, were proper steps taken by our govern ment The greater portion of the new road to Port Iobos is over a level country, with good pasturage

 The great advantages which this movement will confer upon this portion of Arizona are apparent Freight can be brought from Lobos for cents per pound in all, 6 cents from San Francisco; very essential difference between that rate and the l5 or IS cents now paid via the plains and Fort Yuma. Besdest the saving on freight the time saved is another important consideration, for instead of waiting months to procure goods and machinery overland from the eastern States, they could be brought from California in 30 days and sold Is or 20 per cent. lower than the present rates In ev- cry respect this enterprise so we'll commenced by our friends in Sonora deserves the hearty cooperation of our people, as it will afford them cheap provisions and cheap goods.

 This isa movement, also, which should in terest the United States Government, especial y the military Department, which is just now trying to economise in the item of transporta- ton. Troops and military stores could be thrown into Arizona at about one-half the ex- pense now liable to be incurred Our new minister to Mexico ought to be instructed to demand or negotiate the right of transit across Sonora, or what would be more polite for our government, to purchase the upper portion of the State, so as to give us port on the Gulf, without which this vast mineral region never can be properly developed.

Leave me, dear ones, to my slumber,
Daylight's faded glow is gone;
In the red light of the morning
must rise and journey on.
l am weary, oh, how weary!
And would rest d little while;
Let your kind looks be my blessing,
And your last "Good night" smile.
We have journeyed up together,
Through the pleasant daytime flown
Now my feet have pressed life's summit
And my pathway lies alone.
And, my dear ones, do not call me,
Should you haply be awake,
When across the eastern hill-tops
Presently the day shall break.
For, while yet the stars are lying
In the gray lap of the dawn,
On my long and solemn journey
shall be awake and gone,
Far from mortal pain and sorrow,
And from PASSIONS stormy swell,
Knocks at the golden gateway


of the eternal citadel.
There fore, dear ones, let me slumber--
Faded is the day and gone;
And with mornings early splendor,
must rise and journey on.

Each scene of sorrow and darkness,

And speak like the gentle waters.

Already it has gilded the hill.ops,

We learn, per telegraph that Judge Danger
field was re-nominated for Judge of the Ninth
Judicial District, by the Judicial District Con-
vention which assembled at Trinity Centre on
yesterday, the lst inst.


1t is unnecessary for us to state that, in our
opinion, this is nomination emininently fit to
have been made. Judge Daingerfeld fills TO the
brim the measure of official fitness named by
Jefferson. He is both honest and capable 1t
would be preposterous to doubt his election


In this connection we will take occasion to
correct one falsehood which has been used with
great industry against him. 1t is this that an
unusual number of the cases appealed from his
Court have been reversed by the Supreme Court
This is a falsehood so easily established that we
are surprised at its being used by any man
That many honorable men believe it, however.
Is very true. That the man who originated it,
and many who continue to repeat it, know that
It is false we have not doubt


The truth is, and every lawyer in town knows
it, or may know it if he will examine the Su-
preme Court Reports, that of the .ffty:tow cases
appealed from Judge Daingerfelds Court, every
one has been confirmed, if we mistake not, save
SIX or eight And yet men have said upon our
streets aud throughout the county, that as ma
ny as seventeen of his cases have been reversed
at one term of the Supreme Courtl


The fact is, that Daingerfeld has had less
number of his decisions reversed in proportion
!" the number appealed, than almost any Judge
who ever sat upon the Bench in California

FooLsH.-The Alta and various of the oppo-

Mr.. Buchanan for removing Judge Cradlebaugh
from the position OF United States District Judge
for the Territory of Utah They say the Presi-
dent was induced to remove him because he
sought to bring the Mormons to justice for the
Mountain Meadow and other murders Now,
the question here arises, can the President re-
move United States District Judge from officei
We think not. We think such removal can only
be effected by impeachment If so, then the

had their political sensibilities wounded ty the
supposed removal of Judge C.adlebaugI, will

saE@ By the semi-annqal apportionment Of
the school Fund for 1859, Shasta gets the sum
ofS44S-one dollar for each child reported. We
think It perfectly absurd to use the School Fund
at present. What good can result FROM this
half-yearly appropriation Of Il dollar per child ?
Why this is not enough to pay for a month 5
schooling of "abcr scholars. 1t would be
wiser for the State to nurse this Fund for some
years, until it reaches sufficient size to do
some good. Under the present plan it is being
foolishly wasted.

which we speak, thnt his plows were run only

ltss. It Is true that 90 acres were plowed in
50 minutes running time but it is also true
that all the hours between o'clock in

result by no mears flattcring, unless the
nero demonstration that plows can be driven
by steam power without regard to economy Of

We hope 10 hear that tile inventor will prove
that his machine is capable Of other aud moro
valuable Service: but we confess that his ma
chine grows more aad more problcmalical.

CAUSE OF THE AURORA BoRRALIs.-M. de Ia
Rive, the celebrated French astronomer, explains
the production Of the Aurora Boreas in the follow
ing manner When the sun, having passed into the
southern hemisphere, no longer heats our hemis-
phere, the aqueous vapors which have accumulated
during the summer in this part Of the atmosphere
begin to condense, the kind ofhumid cap enyelopng
the polar regions extends more and more, and
facilitates the passage Of electricity accumulated
in the upper portion of the air. But in these
elevated regions, and especially at this season
Of the year, the aqueous vapors must most fire.
quently pass into the state Of minute particles Of
ice or snow floating in the air, similar to those which
give rise to the halos; they form, as IL were, kind
Of transparent mist. These half-frozen fogs con-
duct the electricity TO the surface Of the earth,
the pole, and are at the same time illuminated by
these currents or electric discharges. In fact, all
observers agree in asserting that the aurora boreais
is constantly preceded by mist, which rises from
the POLE and the margins Of which, less dense than
the remainder, are coored the first and indeed it is
very frequent near the pole in the winter months,
and especially in those where there is abundance OF
vapor in the air.

 WHAT GREAT HEARr-I saw Great Heart one day in railroad train. He was well dres ed and appeared to be reading, through his spectacles, the morning paper. A poor woman sat opposite with six little children, the eldest scarcely dozen years old The husband was stupid hard-hearted wretch, and administered blows unsparinsly to wea- ried little thing who expressed it's discomfort by crying and iretthg as the hot, dusty air swept over his flushed face. The mothers countenance wefe look of patient despair and continuaY anxiety, as the little reatts ss company sat crowded together in the loaded car. Not one of them looked shabby or until dy, though very plainly dressed. When the engine stopped for fuel, the poor woman took out from basket some bread and cheese, which she distributed sparingly among the lit tie group. Great Heart watched their move- ments all the morning, and as boy approach ed the carriage with basket full of berries, he bought up boxes enough to go around, and gave them to the hungry children whose eyes gilstened as they saw such rare dessert spread before them. One little girl perhaps five years old, was nearly sick, aud tried to rest in her mothers lap; but the tired infant dispu- ted vigorously her right, and she was obliged to yield the claim. Great Heart had been gravely considering the company, and he did not hesitate to take the poor child tenderly in his arms, lay her carefully down in the seat beside him, with her head in his lap, and then gently fan her with his paper until she sank lnto deep, peaceful slumbcr.

 When we stopped for our dinner, we saw them all seated by beautiful table, loaded with luxuries to which they seemed almost strangers, yet which they knew very well how to appreciate We knew it was Great Hearts and we mentally blessed the kind, generous nature that had thus shed sunshine on the hard pathway of the humble strangers | Christian reader, ill caring for the souls of the poor, do not forget their bodies.
