In your issue of Tuesday last, you say “Mr. Sylvester Mowry has published a long letter, stating that the mining States would rebel, secede, and smasb and nullify everything, If Congress attempted: to taxe possession of what belongs to the government in those regions.” Heratp has never treated anything I have written in Teference to Arizona or the Pacific slope unfairly, and I am sure it does not intend to misrepresent my letter te the World. But it appears to me quite clear that to your remarks quoted above you beg the question at . igsve: do the mines that have bees occupied and worked» for years, without ‘prohibition, and with the implied apsont of the government, and upon whith costly im- provements havo been made, belong to the government?
