SoYoRA.-Accordirg to a correspondent of
the Bulletin, several leaders of the late revo-
luton in Sonora were at last accounts at
Tucson, Arizona, negotiating for arms, am
munition and money, their purpose being to
again attempt the overthrow of the Govern
meut of Sonora. They have says the CORES
pondent adopted Constitution for new
Government Sonora is to be free and indie
pendent of Mexico The Constitution guar
antees freedom of the press and religious
toleration. Don Remijo Rivera has declared
for the Provisional Government. Sonorians
are bitterly opposed to Pesquiera. Arizona
sympathizes with the new party. Several
prominent Americans of military experience
are in consultation with Rivera to carry out
the plan of the new Government. The rev.
olutionists, of course, count on the support of
! the Yaqui Indians 1t is said that an Ameri-
can will arrive in San Francisco shortly, for
the purpose of purchasing arms for the pro-
posed expedition. Aid in arms and money is
also expected to be obtained in New York.
LATER PROM ARIzoNA.-A correspondent
of the San Francisco Herald writing from
Mesilla, under date of November 22d says
"Ned McGowan has been elected a Delegate
to Congress from Arizona Territory, but it is
not supposed, now, that Lincoln is elected,
that he can effect any thing as his constitu-
ents are chiefly Southern, and will notbe will

| is il structed to attend the Southern Conven-
tion and pledge the Territory to the South
ern Confederacy, and. to ask for Territorial
organization under that Confederacy.
We have about 1000 American, or white
population in Arizona, and nine-tenths of that
number favor a disruption of the Union, since
the disastrous election news that has reached
US from the Northern States. A few of the
people here think that there will not be
separation, as the South themselves have neu-
tralized that question, 10y four or five of the
Southern States having voted for Bell, the
Union candidate
The miners of the 'Pino Alto are a rest
less, rowing, bold and chivalrous set of fel
lows, aud many ofthem have an eye to Sono
ra; and should not be surprised if descent
was made upon that country in the spring.
The gold prospecting party have been
heard from J. W. Hager, Esq, and four
others of the company returned to the Pine
Alto on the 18th inst, direct from the Rio
San Francisco. having been absent twenty
days The expedition proved unsuc-
cessfu fer, though color was found all
! along the river gold does not exist in suff-
cient quantities to pay for working The
hills prospected very well, but being mac
cessible TO water the gold cannot be obtained
The rest Of the party remained at work, but
were nearly discouraged, and will probably
return in few days
When the Express left Pine Alto, snow
and rain were falling. If iteontinucd any
great length of time, mining operations will
be greatly facilitated.
Several arastas are in successful operation"
OREGON MISEs-The Oregon City Argus
has some information in regard to the gold
mines on the head waters of Clear River, be-
yond the Reservation, 10 miles E. n E. Of
Fort Walla WalIa. Mr. Bassett, who visited
the country, says: "The gold is fond in
dry diggings as well as on creeks There is
also an abundance of gold quartz in that
country. There is room for thousands of peo-
pie TO work, and there are paying diggngs
all over that section" Mr.. Bassett's company
prospected, says the Argus, near two months,
and the average yield was about seven cents
to thepan, ranging from two to fifteen cents.

those men who will work faithfully for five
