It has been reported that the government intends placing a tax on the importation of machinery from the United States, in retaliation for Secretary Window's lead ore order. Such a tax would be discriminatory, and, in our opinion, unsound policy. The country to day requires the ut most encouragement to be given to the introduction of cheap and good machinery, in order to increase agri cultural and mineral production. The luxury of revenge would cost the country too much. The wisest policy is to gradually increase the wealth of the country, stimulate im migration, and thus demonstrate to the enemies of Mexico that she can thrive despite them. Nor should the fact be lost to view that in the United States the friend of this j country are in the majority, and that narrow-minded politicians of the j stamp of Windoin will soon be swept j into oblivion, Mexican Financier. lilt) Sixty years ago railroads wore unknown in this country, and the population of the United States coir isted of 12,000,000 people. To day we operate 165,000 miles of -dilroad and our population has increased to 60,000,000. Sixty years ago the aggregate wealth of the United States was less than 51,000,000,000 at present it is estimated at 56, 000,000,000 Sinty years ago there were but , three or four millionaires ia theehtire Union. Now there ;fC several thousand. Forty two vCai-s ago there was but one m;.n in the United States who was worth 5, 00,000, now there are not less than 1600 persons, each of whom is worth as much or more. Careful estimate: show that there are at least 31,000 parsons, each of whom is worth over 500,000, and all of whom possess an a?oreS',lte of wealth amounting to (5,250,000,000, leaving to all the other inhabitants of the country an as'Tesite of wealth of onlv S23.750. 00 000 worf two.tilir(h . , . of our national wealth has been gathered into tlie possession of only t ,l , . , . one two-tnousauatn part ot our nc- pulation.

When a horse is used for the sad dle no one thinks of meddling with his eyes, and we allow the annimal to use them freely, as nature has directed. But no sooner do we put the same animal in harness than we think ourselves bound to fasten a black leather flap over each of his eyes, so as to prevent him from see. ing objects at his sides, und to limit his view to those who are in his im mediate front. This is done with GENTS' FURNISHING Mr. DERR. tia verr-ussTrintentioiis. the obiect being to save him from-being fright . o ened by staitling and unwanted sights am. only to leave a sufficient of vision wherewith to guide hi steps. Herein as in feeding and stabling the ho-sej mm judi.es tire animal by hira-elf, for&eting or rather having failed to notice, that the eyes of the horse are exceedingly unlike his own. Our eyes are set in the front of our heads.so that it blinkers were fastened to our temples oar range of vision would be but slightly limited. But the eyes of the horse are placed on the side of the head and are rather prominent, so that the animal cannot o.ily.see on either side, but by rolling his eyes back wards, as wo see in a vicious horse, can see objects almost in his immed iate rear. The effect of the blinker is both physic? ily and mentally in jurious to the horse. In the first place, especially when large and beought near the eyes"t has the ef- tect of heating and hindering the free passage of the air over them., In the next place, it causes the eye to be always directed forward, and thus produces a most injurious strain on the delicate muscle. We know how painful a sensation is felt' when we are obliged to strain our eyes either backwark or upward any ' length of time, and the horso suffers no less inconvenience when it is forced to keep its eyes continually strained forward.

Pleu ropneumonia in a most virulent form is raging in several Eugl.'sh counties. and it seems to be spreading at a rate which threatens most serioj consequences. Under the circum stances the United States would be clearly justifiable in temporarily closiug our ports absolutely against everything of the bovine kind from "the ti'ht little island."

On the 31st of October a car load of wool left this city over the Santa Fe, consigned by Gross, Blackwell ik Co,, to a house in Philadelphia. In due season the car .which was proper" ly locked and sealed, reached the consignees and was opened soon after. To the horror of the persons engaged in the work, they discovered the dead body of a negro, lying among the wool sacks, who had evidently died of destitution and ex posure, and with no papers upon him to indicate his name or residence. He had undoubtedly bid himself in the car in this city before it was j jOcked, for the purpose of stealing a ' GOODS. you can save money be buying your Goods at home, and Tl-RTSSSTVT Aimfftt T.T?.P AT?TMT?.?ffT is manao-erl rido, and being unable to get out in his long ride across the continent! died a terrible death. The facts in the caso being telegraphed to O. II. Brown, assistant freight manager of the Santa Fe, at Topeka, that gentle man to day sent a long telegram to Agent Moore in this city, ask in what he knew about the strange freight, and with a touch of grim humor- wanted to know if that kind tif wool was classified the same as the wool taken from the backs of sheep. Mr. Moore is unable to furnish any facts in the case and leaves Mr. Brown to classify the wool as he pleoses. Las Vegas Optic. Epoch, The transition from long, lingei- ing and painful sickness to robust health marks an epoch in the life of the individual. Such a remark able event is ireasured in the mem ory, and the agency whereby the good health has been attained is gratefully blessed. Hence it is that so much is heard in praise of blectnc li ters.

There were two men writing at the dek in the corridor of the post omce tne otner oay, ana two or three more people waiting to use the pens, when a "small woman pushed her way in, took a pen from one of the men, shoved the other back for elbow room, and stid: 'Excuse me, but I have got to get this postal card off by the noon mail." "That's pretty chbekyl" replied one of tho astonished men. "Yes," she said as she began ad ressing the card, "but this is a special case. I've no meat in the house, and must hear from my old man, who is in Buffalo, but mtends umping out to Philadelphia to mor row, fctand hack and give me room to swing my arm and tell him that it's either 5 before Saturday or I'll ship with a Pittsburg bill-poster."

Kk says: Meat inspectors have been ap pointed in each county under the recent act of the legislature. They charge fifty cents a head for inspec tion of beef, yet we don't know whether the inspectors in any county in the Territory personally examines the beef either when on the hoof or afterwards. The operation of the law is simply a tax on each butcher of from S25 to 850 per month for the benefit of the men who happen to be inspectors If this law cannot be employed for the benefit of the people, it should be repealed.
