AMEn1cAK INTERVENTION,
A few months ago. before Grant began his
great march upon Richmond from the N ,rth
and Sherman lis into the heart OF the Soush
from Chattanooga, " Intervention " was cur
d. spots rnd their mercenary subjects. But
Of late change has come o'tr the spiri. Of
their Dire ame, and to-day " interyention'' IA
CUR threat and their terror. I have often
spoken in my letters Of the feeling "a Ills
coast against Na1i1nllllan and his cut-thro4t
allies and merceparies IN Mexico. That t:cl-
Ing groHs stronger every day. aud Just as
surely Us this csuel war Is over, you viii see
the thirst Of fAmerfcan intsveati N ia ths at.
fairs OF the Cheap John Empire to the s,uth
Of us carried into execution In practical
shape. The French transport steamer Ph1n.
which WAS dlsmasted and nearly wrecked of
MazatIan in storm months since, is now
here rtfltttng and repairing at the Govern
ment navy SaId ct Marc Ia1and, iu spl Z Of
tho indignant and just protests oi the Mexican
Consul, Benor Godoy. Admiral Mazcres
towed the Rhine up to this port With his dag
ship, the steam fr,gate La Vtc:otre,. and fas
spent nearly S2o0, ,000 here In the purchase Of
supplies and repairs. To-morrow be Iii
leave with La Vletoire for Muzatlan agaln,
and powder will be burned on all sides Is b
goes. He has heen respectfully treated bT
everybody, but teted BY none, during bis stay,
and be can hardly fal to cary back with dim
the st1ng conviction that nine-tenshs Of our
people would Ike to sec hts noble steamer
sunk befGre another shot has been fired from
her guns at our friends and allies tic Liberal
lists Of Mexico.
The Northern States OF Mexico will soon be
full OF Americans from both North and South,
Who will Join heartily in expelllpg the French
invaders from The soil ofonr sister Republic,
Parties titted out with view of taking
hand in the overturn Of Max's empire, arc al
ready nearly ready to leAye-1 will tell you
what point hefeafter-and q friend OF mine,
who may be engaged to write for the Tat
DuNE, will be among them. I shall take the
liberty Of engaging him rs Your correspond

not much longer be delayed Is ceriain, and
you shall know all about them as fast as they
arc made.
General Mason, commander OF the new
staff Tor that Territory and his troops, to
the humber Of over two thousand, are on the
way. Native Mextcans or Spanish Ameri-
cane, and Indians Of the Gila, Poppagoes,
Cocopahs. M1racopas and Plmos will BE-
added to this force to the number of one thou
eand Or more, and the Apaches must "get
up and get" low, for their day has come.
The mineral resources Of that Territory are
attracting great attention now. It Is almost
incredible the Developments which are being
made there. Tho country is the strangess
and most contradictory imaginable. There
Is nothing thcre which is like any thing To be
found anywhere else on earth. All the
known rules Of geology arc rcrersel or mil
1laed there, and the mircr must 70 to work
and learn anew the business at which he may
have spent haaf lifetime 10 Europe or any
other country. Many new mines are
epr ng up IN little valley. ns fer tile a. is to
bc fount on earth and as beautiful as Para
disc. but full nf snttlesnakcs, ta'ansulas aud
Al lachas. Withal, you find mineral wealth
hlHiLet eVcryN hele, aud The extent Of the
territory literally covered with veins OF ms:-
aliiernus rock is almost inca3culable. The
Superintendent Of the Grat Central Nine,
VIII, 10 one Of the most iDd0mitable workers
and adyentnrers have ever met. went up to
Williams' Fork, where 1t emptses into the
Colorado. Eome months nee, and they took
up d lead near the Planet mine, fiom which
immense quantities Of 1orty.two per cent cup
per orc arc now being shipped to Ibis city for
re'shirment to Europe. They decided the
lead toHhc Grent Central Company, and ii.
Thompson set 1wL men at work at once 10
do the work necessary to hold 1t fot the Com
Fany. At the end Of the first sixty days the
T4nstees were 0stontshcd to learn that these
two mtn lad taken out flfty tons Of ore,
worth, on an arerage, $lj5 per ton ii
Swansea. The cost OF ininin-, packing, ship
ping 10 San francisco, resnippIng to Europe,
duties an! all other fncidentats, ia less than
SCO per ton, leaving the company fully 800
per ton profit. II need NOT tell yo1 that
there Il no stock In the company for sale.
Capitalists who have never visited the coun-
u superlnteDd-nts or fooled away thousands
OF dollars through their Ignorance, but the
fact OF the immense wealth Of the territory
Is being proven BY practical results after all,
ard i've wears hence ''A.iz1na lnillionalrcs"
