Eas Veas Daily Gazette, s J. H. KOOCLER. Editor. Sui'i'ORTKU by orne of the largest wholesale houses of St. Louis a ship builder has constructed, launched ami placed in successful operation a boat for the exclusive use of the commerc ial travelers of the nouses represented in their work of scllina: goods on the Mississippi river. Each travcliug man has his own quarters where his sain pies are displayed to the best adran tage. The owner and manager a long ago as twenty years conceived the idea of building such a boat ; b meeting with no encouragement from the merchants, and not having suffic ient means of his own then, he could not carry the plan into execution, When he submitted his plan a few months ago, while few, if any, of the wholesale houses were willing to pu money into the enterprise, cuougl agreed to engage rooms to warrau the building of the boat. The littl vessel is 98 feet iu length and 25 feet iu width. The stern wheel is 16 lect long,'12 inches face with' 8 icet arm Tlie boiler is sunk in the deck floo and the supply of coal is kent in the hull of the boat. On the upper lecl the sample rooms are located, six on each side, with shelves and tables fo the display of the samples, and a be( for the occupant. Such & manner o doing business is certainly pleasan but if the boat strikes Memphis next August and takes the yellow fever on board we predict the commercial men will abandon her quick enough. Tiie Mesilla News is in earnest and has the following head lines in the last issue over the news from the Indian war: attention, Hatch, POPE, SHERIDAN, SHERMAN, RAMSEY, SIIURZ, HAYES. THE INDIAN WAR.

The New Mexicansays: "For some weeks past it has been rumored that our contemporary, the Era Southwestern, was on the point of being sold but the matter was kept quiet so that nothing definite in re. gard to the matter could be ascertain ed. Now, however, the sale has been eil'ected the purchaser being Mr. Al bright of Kansas, and it is sate to an nounce that the Era Southwestern will after this week be numbered among the defunct journals of the T'-rritory. In its place, however will be established a democratic paper sailing under different colors and with a new title. What this litlc will be has not buen announced, but it is known that the new paper will bo an evening journal about the feize of the Las Vegas Optic, and published daily and weekly. The firnt issue of the paper, will probably be sent to the public next Monday, when a more de finite idea of what the new comer will be may be gained." IMW- Ouk esteemed contemporary daily over at the capítol is extremely mod est. This is the way they talk: "San ta Fe is certainly the most prominent point readied by the road, affording as it does more freight and a greater number of passengers than any other point on it, and the railroad company will probably continuo to extend to the city as great accommodations and favors as to the stations along the linn." That will bo all right in the spring, brothers. A crack-brained editor is strug gling with poverty and a last cause in Denver by publishing a Greenback paper called the Financial Era. We bet it is a fiuaucial era with him when he can count five dollars of assets. The fact is he is hallucinated with a Financial Error, and he had better take water 'cre-a sheriff gets hold of him.
