MINNIE IN Arizona.

A correspondent Of Missouri Republican,
in letter from Tubac, A. T., furnishes
some interesting information regarding the
prospects Of the Different Minin. Companies.
The Fort Fillmore Company was working
the Stephenson mine in the Organ Noun
tains. II had expended much money in USE
less experiments, but is now doing better
than heretofore. The Cahuabi Company
was developing mines in the Papago coun-
try, eighty miles back Of the Tubac. IL
has reduced large quantity of silver, and
was prosecuting its work vigorously. The
St. Louis Company, according to the state
ment Of the correspondent, was not conduct
ing its affairs in the most judicious manner,
and had not made much progress. The ma
chinery of the Sonora Exploring and Mining
Company was still detained in Tubac,
awaiting the payment of $l3,5oo freight,
before i. could be forwarded. 1t would
cost one thousand dollars moro TO carry it
to the Arivacca, where it was to be erected.

A FREE PRESS.


This great model Republic boasts Of it's
freedom, its free speech, free press, &C.,
but the outside barbarian would get an oc-
casional illustration of what these high
sounding words means, in one-h half of this
Dragging Republic. Here is an example
For four years We have been sending copy
of our paper, ordered by Judge Harmed to
his brother, w. c. Harmed, in Texas, and
for which Judge Harmed received paper in
exchange from Texas. Last week a copy Of
our paper was returned by the postmaster,
with the following classic note written at
the top Of the pages
s'Thc P. NJ. at Huntsville, Texas, would
say to the editor of this Internal sheet, that
he delivers no such incendlnary documents,
and any man or set Of men that publishes
such sheet are negro thieves and Sound
rels Of the darkest dye. Keep your damned
sheet at home Huntsville, Texas
The humble, unpretending little sheet on
which this specimen of genuine Democracy
is written, is no more incendiary than a
thousand others, representing the views Of
a majority Of 100000 Of the freeman who
ought to control the government which feeds
the petty william who violates the laws
which he has sworn to obey, and commits
perjury that he may v;ndcate his subservi
ency to despotism. Without the money Of
the people whose rights he thus outrages,
he would be driven back to where the gov
eminent found him, aud compelled to make
bis living by petty thieving, or still more
Gishonorable means for it is safe to affirm
that such n lack Of honorable manhood will
never gain a livelihood by honest toll or
lauiable excrtion.
This most pitiful of all would be little
tyrauss does not know that the people over
whom he thus tyrannizes furnish his bread,
and pay, not only their own, but half the
