 PRESCOTT, July 7.-Arrived here by Grants stage in the middle of last night-about 20 hours and 90 miles Good road, but fearfully crooked even for mountains. The line has quite good stock between these towns, and good meals can be had. The line will soon be replenished with new stock clear through to San Bernardino--25 fresh horses were expected at Wicken- burg yesterday, and MT. Grant wrote that he would leave San Bernardino with as many more the same day. The semi-weekly mail has already started from here to Tucson and Cali fornia It will be fortnight or more ere the new stage arrangement will be completely effected. A full load of passengers came in from the west, and didn't rend the air with complaints of slow coaches, poor fare, etc., hence 1 think the line is doing as well as the country will justify as yet.

 l spent a very pleasant Fourth of July in visit to the Vulture mine some particulars of which 1 have taken notes for. It is not good to jump at conclusions even with regard to the best regulated families-hence little reflection even over the Vulture works will do no harm. This change of scenery and air favors digestion, and 1 may run off column or so on the subject in question at an early day not for the sake of that mine, but as it suggests much of importance re- specting the future of the whole Ter ritory.

 Speaking of climate, the Fourth was rendered quite pleasant by show CTS that have streaked this north sec tion with mud, generally laid the dust, and cooled the air as we'll as purified it. perhaps, The drive over the Vulture divide was specially blessed. They say Wickenburg is somewhat sickly, but no good reason is given why. My view of the case is, that 1t IS a sort of entrepot and point of departure from the main set dement's of this part of the Territory; that more or less newcomers reach there busted or wait round for work in a miserable sort of way, and then get sick to create sympathy. Blast them, anyhow! There's old man Wicken- burg, who discovered the Vulture, iv- ing on the Hassayampa yet, and un- less he does like ComStock (blow his head off) he will finger for years hence. Great stream that Hassayampa to be called river-not water enough in its bed in front of town for years to swim a pismire.

DR.. LennoX, in late communica-
ton upon the very prevalent epidemic


of scarlet fever through England and


Wales, calls attention to certain COM
mon sense views in regard to its treat
ment, VIII. ch commend themselves to
all thoughtful persons. He remarks
that although we may not always be
able to control the appearance or the
disease, yet when it has been devel-
oped, its further progress is or should
be entirely under our control, since it
is a contagious disease, and, as such,
capable of being antagonized. In
this case, as in many other diseases,
the poison is evidently propagated in
the form of germs, whatever be their
character, which, thrown into the air
and falling upon or entering the body
give rise to renewed cases. In scarlet
lever these germs appear to retain
their vitality for an unusual length of
time, one case being mentioned where
a piece of flannel, worn around the
neck of a scarlet fever patient, was
picked up and used two years after,
and developed fresh case of the dis
ease. In a certain instance of an out
break of scarlet fever over wide
neighborhood it was ascertaiDed that
in every instance this took place in
families that had been supplied with
milk by the same milkman. On in
quiry it was found that persons con-
nected with the farm from which milk
was supplied had been infected with
scarlet fever. The precautions to be
taken, according to Mr.. Lennox, after
the disease has made its appearance,
are in the first place, to isolate the
patient at whatever trouble or expense
preventing the approach of any one
excepting the nurse and physician.
With this, disinfectapts must be used
with the utmost freedom, whether
they be carbolic acid, permangranates
of soda and potash, chloride of zinc,
chloride of aluminium, chlorinated
lime. or soda, sulphate of iron, &c.
These should be employed in and
around the patient. All his discharges
and ,excretions should be Immediately
disintected, and all bed clothing and
linen worn by the patient treated with
the same care. Nurses in attendance
and physicians touching the patient in
any way should also wash their hands
in disinfecting solution before leav-
ing the room. Wooden clothing that
cannot be washed should be exposed
to heat of at least 212 degrees, this
temperature having the property OF
destroying the poisonous germs. Even
after the patient has apparently re-
covered, the precautions should be
maintained until the peeling off of
the cuticle, or the scales, has been en-
tirely accomplished, as in many cases
the disease has been traced to the par
ticles of this character. N'

In her "Pink and White Tyranny


Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe gives this
calm and logical refutation of the $50.
called refOrmers :"


Well, then, it has been very surpris-
ing to US to see in these our times, that
some people, who really have at heart
the interest of women, have been SO
shOrt-sighted and reckless as to olamor
for an easy dissolution of the marriage
contract, as a means of righting their
wrongs. Is it possible that they do not
see that this is a liberty which, once
granted, would always tell against the
weaker sex? If the woman who finds
she has made a mistake, and married an
unkind or uncongenial man, may, on
the discovery of it, leave him, and seek
her fortune with another, so also may a
man. And what will become of women
like Lille, when the first gliding be-
gins to wear off, if the men who have
taken them shall be at liberty to cast
them off and seek others? Have we
not enough now of miserable, broken
winged butterflies, that sink down in
the mud of the street? But are women
reformers going to cIamor for having
every woman turned out helpless when
the man who has married her and
made her a mother, discovers that she
has not the power to interest him and
help his higher spiritual development ?
1t was because woman is helpless and
weak, and because Christ was her Pro-
tector, that he made the law of mar
riage irrevocable; "Whosoever putteth
away his wife, causeth her to commit
adultery" If the sacredness of the
marriage contract did not hold, if the
church, and all good men, and all good
women did not uphold it with their
might and main, it is easy to see where
the career of a woman like Lille would
end. Men have the power to reflect be-
fore the choice is made, and that is the
only proper time for reflection. But,
when once marriage is made and con-
summated, it should be as fixed fact
as the laws of nature. And they who
suffer under its stringency should suf-
fer as those who endure for the public
good. "He that swsareth to his own
hurt, and changeth not, he shall enter
into the tabernacle of the Lord"
