The emperors arrnt vast sums of money for this purpoic. It la recorded that Julius Crcsor gavo a thow of S20 fight. InH cou Its. Tltut arranged an exhibi tion of gladlalort, wild beasts and naval battles that lasted for one hun dred dtyt. Trnjsn gave a show In which two thousand men fought with each other or with wild Units. This was witnessed by 70,00(1 silatort of all clours, Including many arlitocratla ladles of Home. Ho numerous wtro the slaves ket and trained for this barbarout urpose that they ware finally considered a menac ing danger to the nommonwealth. When the perarcutlous et the Chris tlsus wero commenced, many of thim wcro sculcncid to fight In the arena, but they erilntently re futed olther to fight or defend them telvet, preferring to die without blood stains on their hauJs. The sped, ators wero not entirely satli fled with this kind of exhibition. Tho Chris tians v. ire, therefore, uiuslly thrown lefore the wild beasts, which, as a general rule, ended their sufferings In a short time. Constantino was tho first imperor who prohibited prise fights In his em pire. He taw ilearly that this kind of amuuinent wat anla gonlttlo to the principles of tho Christians, who formed a majority of hit subjects. This em peror, although not much of a Christian hiniielf, was anxious to gsln the affections of the Chrlsllsn Jiortlon of the icoj'lo and did nil he could to sustain them. He legnllztd their custom of celebrating the Lords da), extended their privileges as citizens and even tried to act as arbitrator In acme of their doctrinal disputes. Out of n gard for their sentiment., the'liar barout gladiatorial fights wi re rohltlt id. It took a long tlmo though, before the iiitlon as a whole had been edu cated to detest this kind of amuse ment. Hut this feeling aim gradu ally. In the rilgn of Honorlua history states .that onu Tvlemachut lioldly entered thenronato stop a fight, but tho spectators stoned him. The emperor heodorlo In tho sixth century of our era, finally, abolished the barbar uus exhibitions. A question which confronts this country now Is, When will the Ameri can people bo sufllolently Chtlstlau Ued to abolish tho brutal prize fights that aro a blot iin our civilization; They constitute one of the lowest relics of barbarism. Thu fact thit1hcy are Intensely popular and roado occaalona of abtorblug publlo Interest Indicates that In some resfects wo are not fsr r moved from the condition of the people of the third and fourth ccuturlis of the Christian era. Instead of throwing off tho barbarism exhibited by them, we simply manifest tho same lnstlncta In a modified degree. JllUi 1 1 M!

The men composing thoso roglmentt were taken from their duties as clerks, mtrchantt. warehousemen, eto. After tho strlko was settled, and tho regi ments disbanded, several memben wero denied their former situations. Two of tho soldiers were employes of the Union riionograih Com) any, of New York. On presenting themselves for employment after their return from IluUulo, they wero told that their places wero filled. In tho case of time two men tho railroad officials gave them rinfilojment, but thcro are a dozen others who have forfeited their positions. One employer said that he would not take any man lack who went from his work to j rolect roperty for the Htate. "let tho Btale find Its own irotectors, or procure emplo mi nt for Its toldlers." A development of this kind forebodes n new obitrucUon to tho ttUctlveness of mllltla corps. MMMMl'LltS 1 I'HWIl.

I have Just returned homo from n visit te the northeaitirn part of the Btate of Bonora, Mex!co,whcre 1 visited many placet of Interest end met many Icraona who nre now or have been prominent In thu affairs of that Htate, Arriving at Ilensou on the Houthern 1'aclfio railroad,! thcro boarded a tralu on the Kogales A Honora railroad, passing our brethren located on tho stream Han Pedro, where can bo seen comfortable, dwellings surrounded with alfalfa, corn and other products, bt, David coul I scarcely be icon, to com lelelyoocred lilt with a foliage of trees. Wo soon reached the lunctlon of tho railroad, the left branch turning east ward to a raiulug town named llisby. Thence wo continued our Journey southwest, passing continuous claims of ranchmen, w (rare thoutanda of cat tle aro seen from tho car window. We arrived at Nogilea at 2 p.m. Here are the best built and molt comfortable houses (after tho Mexican style) that I havu yet seen. Nogales hasapopu latlou ol S,000 Inhabitants, of whom I pioiume about two thirds aro Mexi cans. Hero the eustom houses of each rtpubllo Join, or rattier the cilices of the railroads. Thu bridge that crosses tho main wash through tho center of tro town Is also loliied, one half be longing to each government. Here Mexican silver It accepted at(ar the ouly place I have ever been in the United BUtts that they did not dis count Mexican money. I visited tho noted Mexican lady from Honora Hlnto who claims divine toner to heal thu sick. A Mrilloothe, uhosu acquaintance! had forme-dwblle nn the cars, Introduced llrother Isaac Iloblnsau, of Hele Illver (lately re leased from n mission among the l'a agoea),and myself. Wu entered by tho first door. On our left eat the July's socretary.- Wo were registered as visi tors, while around lho entire circle of tho wall sat people elbow to elbow, an tarenlly lu deep conversation. We stood 111 the center of the room await ing tho lady'i arrival. Within a few itiomeuts there entered a tall, rather slender, light comleoted young lady. Mr. lloothu presented us as vlslton. Hhu In re cordial way requested us tu follow her Into an adjoining room. I tils offer we accepted. The next room wusaUosurroundenl with Jeopie with their backs to the wall. Here were men and women slctt from vsrlous causes. We passed through to the third room, where to our sur rise we found thoplaco filled. The next room ojn ned Into an open space, and I confess I felt relieved, and hoped that we would ha to this privilege of a prlvatn conver sation. About twenty steps furttier we entered another room, and you can better Imagine my feelings than I can desorlbu tlicm when I tell )ou that heru the lady was compelled to request tho halt, lame and blind to give us passage. Hhe couducted us Into a fifth room, where she evidently performed uk)ii those who had come from all (arts of Mexico, and tho United Btatit also, for on tho tvue tralu with us onie a gentleman, about fifty j ears of aire, from Mluueatolls, who had ro- ceiviu asiroae or nervous prostration. I conversed with him and he told me the object of his long and tedious Jour lie . lie had already vlstted thtsnoted ladynnd had returned to the hotel claiming that ho could realize a marked difference in Ills feelings, nnd that she had Instructed him to remain In the town a few days, thus giving her other opportunities to relieve him. Hut let us return to tha room lost mentioned. Near the centre was a bod uKin n hand.raude bcdiltrad. On It sat die ladles of a higher tyetban I had hitherto observed, liy the side of thu he'd was a good-looktug gentleman, to whom wo were Introduced as tbe father of the young lady. Here, as before, tnt men and women around the room, tome with bandaged heads, othen apparently bllud, while others wero polutea out touj as bsluwexR inliidid. , Afte r we were ecuted and Mr, jlooth had explained that llrother Robinson and myself were "Mormons" I in quired If I could ask tho lady a few quittloiis. Yes, wu the reply, and the following stiort comersatlon en sued! "Howoldareyou?" "Twinty. three )eara next birthday." "How old were ou when you discovered this divine power, as you call It?" Klghteen yearn old " "How did you recelvelt,or Vihatwrm pour lmirea slotis, or by what authority do )ou lit nl tho sick?" "1 don't know;ltIust enmu uon me." I had up to this answer used Mr. llooth as nn Inter preter, but It was quite plain that ha could notilo ullco to the Interpreta tion and I told him that I could speak Hpaiilth, and that ho could men tion this to the father. He did so, and eomuieiiud the conversation. I aiked agalu how the la ly come to obtain her commission, "for surely this is no per tonul power, it his come from tome suiemttural source.' "let, sir, I now uuderstanil what you deslro, an I will tell you that my first Impressions were that there was a something for me to do, hut I could not understand what." '-When this feeling was upon you, did )cu know what was going nn around or wero you unconscious?" "Most of tha tlmo I was unconscious, tho remainder cf the time I could dis cern vverythlng around me, but I had no control of my body or tongue." "How did jcu feel coming out ol this stupor.

"Under what condition or Intluenco aro you when you put our hands upon an aflllctrj ierson?" "When I place mv hands and It gin to rub the part aflllctcd I become unconscious, or at least I have no control of in) self except to perform my duty, but this Is only in coses that I can cure." "1)3 you Imagine that you see anything when unconscious, ordo jou hear anything?" "I cto.uot hear an thing: but thcro nruperwii agea apparently Hosting In the air, traversing to and fro, and they are trying to Instruct me, but I cannot understand them." Here I ceased my questioning. I have only given you the main points or outline of one of lho Interesting visit. of my life. Wu shook hands, lhaiiV. Ing tho Isdy for her courtesy end, retired. At .1 pm. 1 left llrother Itoblnson and passed Into Mexico. Altera few moment's delay (durlug which the custom olllcers examined our pact ages) wu hurled aloug down grade, piuslng many slstlons till within about twenty miles of the City of Maiallna, where on either side, except In tome few cases, could bo seen poorly tilled farms, orchards sxtundlng for many miles along the tide of the rallroaj. At the Stallone It was amusing to see the swarm of veudort of fruit almcsl given away, Madnllnt la said to contain from seven to eight thousand luhabltaull. The heat only reaches 80, At 12 midnight we halted at I'osa ttallou, my railroad destination, and at I waJ walking the platform a gentle man (l.gnaclA Halatar) hailed mo In lirokon l.tiglUh. 1 of course knew that tics was a Mexican and responded In Ills own language. Ho seemed a Hills surprised and offered ruu his hand, ask ing my rardou lortalutlnguteln Ln llsli. He invited mo to his house. I Ills, however, was alter I had ex. plained the object of my Journey and that Captain 1j. W.

Hut to return; we found that tho prort did not embrace nearly as many aires as had been tuppoeel, and after three da) s' visit 1 was furnished with an excellent horso and a guide to return by the dllltrent places to learn more of the couutry. My course from tbu railroad to the Dollcla was easterly. I now turn directly north, following the Hjnora river most of the tlmo. This tuns south and toulhwcet. mm night we were favored Willi a visit from J.gnnclo Tcs oelra. I think lie Is Ilia oldest eon of tbuUoueral. feextday wulefl tho river and keit ntarly north, passing small farms all day until about 1 t-m. We then opened out oh toa higher plateau. Thus far thu couutry outside of the cul tivated fields was utt rly worthiest, though thu entire surface, hillside and all was covered with an underbrush, which is notlhe caso hero where our IoploUelI, as our mountains around us lu Dlsi nre entirely bare. At lho foot of this higher plateau was an ex cellent farm and well tended, beautiful com, very large and tatty melons.wllli plenty of grass and (Imlvr along tho narrow vulle, which extends six mllet to the Haicleuda headquarters, as It Is called here. Along this valley grows Umber of an Immense height, Cot tonwood trees nru grown hero 100 feet high, the trunk measuring sixty feet without a limb; n-h In abundance, 100 feet. The mulociry and tach can also bu found aloes thla stream. Otai are plentiful, and other timbers I mu not acquainted with. Wu now reach tho Hac!endo, where the widow of the Itto Uovernor Tescelra resides. Hhe owns 180,0110 acres and 10,000 bead of cattle and 10i)0 head or horses, with houses along thu stream for miles; but these are not Inhabitable, owing to their ago.
