Important to Newspaper Publishers.
A few days since a copy of the Indian
apolis Journal, in which a prospectus of
the paper hud beeu enclosed, was return
ed to the publishers, charged with lotter
postage. The person to whom it was di
rected having been in the habit of send
ing prospectuses in the paper, and know
ing that it was common to transmit
handbills, notices, &c., in newspapers,
could not see the justice of the punish
ment in this case, referred the matter to
the Postmaster General, through Mr. Cel
fnx. The Department sustains the Post
master, and decides the practice unlaw
ful, and that every offence subjects the
offender to a fine of five dollars.
Iu the year 1682, the General Court of
Plymouth Colony passed the following
law, which it is fair to suppose has be
come a nullity, in Massachusetts, at
least: “That whoever refuses the office of
Governor, shall pay twenty pounds ster
ling, unless he were chosen two years go
ing ; and whoever rofuses the office of
counsellor or magistrate, ten pounds ster
ling.”
There is no use for such a law in Geor
gia, and as for that matter, in Massachu
setts, either, now-a-days. The great diffi
culty is to keep the aspirants choked off,
to preserve the harmony and identity of
parties. If such a law was in force now,
we apprehend that the revenue of the
State would not be materially augmented
by the fines and forfeitures on that score.
Times have wonderfully changed sinoe
the days when that law was passed.
Arizona.
We make the following extract from
the correspondence of the San Francisco
Herald, in reference to Arizona. It will
be seen that it confirms our previous no
tices of the value of the new Territory,
and the necessity of its separate organi
zation :
“The great plague of the country is the
Apaches. They divide up into small
bands, and scour the country on every
side. This place (Tueson) is almost the
only frontier town in the Purchase which
has withstood their ravages, and even
here stock cannot range in safety a mile
from the town without a guard. In all
probability the Government, in a few
years, will forever settle theso pests.—
They are a hardy, crafty tribe, but not at
all brave. There is no longer any doubt
that this country is immensely rich in
mines of silver, gold, copper, iron and
lead. I have traveled all the mineral dis
tricts of North America, and I have seep
enough here to satisfy me that this is the
richest of them all. The people here
raise two crops a year, but have to irri
gate for one.
“Why do not some of your enterprising
San Francisco merchants open a trade
with Arizona ? Goods sell there at enor
mously high price, and much the largest
portion of them are brought by the ways
of Texas and Missouri. There are but
few who have anything like a correct idea
of the mineral wealth of the Gadsden
Purchase, or of its value as a stock grow
ing country; and, in fact, many places
are now lying idle, waiting for an occu
pant, combining all the advantages of
good grazing, good farming land, and
rich silver mines—all of which can be se
cured upon one pre-emption claim.
“There are large tracts of the finest
kind of farming land between this place
and Messilla, which will be taken up as
soon as the Apaches are quieted. At pre
sent, no one can do anything here with
out some capital. lam satisfied with my
adventure. The country has all the ele
ments which makes a great State, and
waits now but for the people. The ‘So
nora Mining Company,’ operating near
Tub&c, about seventy miles up the valley
from this place, have lately discovered a
veiu of silver ore of extraordinary extent
and richness. The Mexican miners re
gard it as worth millions. I will write
you more fully about this hereafter. Our
greatest want now is the territorial gov
ernment. There are too mauy men living
here without laws: and although thoy
have got along very well so far, it is not
safe to trust longer to the present state
of things. But I must bring this intole
rably long letter to a close. I will write
again by next mail.”
A petition, signed by about one thous
and residents of Arizona, has been re
ceived at the War Department, asking for
mounted troops to be stationed in the
territory, to protect the inhabitants
against the ravages of the Apache In
dians.
