WE arc sorry to have to state that the ln- dians and smallpox continue to afflict our fellow-citizens of Pima county. Recent let ters from Tucson place the mortality, from smallpox, at five penons per day, which, in. a town of i,s size, is appalling. The deaths, it is said, occur, principally, among children, but the disease attacks people of all ages. Jas. E. McCafry and P. M. Hodges have been prostrated with 1t, but are now we'll of It. Its rayages in the Southern country, and the fact that |, is spreading and growing worse, should, we think, be sufficient warning for the people of Northern Arizona to prepare for it by getting yaccinnated It is also pre- valent to the west, in Southern California, and it will be miracle if 1t is not brough, here Get vsccinnated.

NoRE SuBscRIBLRs WASrED.-0ur auxi. ety to "beneht" tho public, and raise stake to be expended in celebrating the coming National Anniversary, prompts ms 10 offer great Inducements 10 persons, who do n't take the MINER, to have their names enrolled among our honored paying subscribers. and thus become happy in this world, and glo- tious in the next. These inducements are as follows: From and after date, every new subscriber who pays seven dollars down. for one years subscription, will receive . copy of the paper for one year, and be entitled to our support, should he see fit to run for Del egate. As there may be some old fogies who would prefer a farm, or feet in ledge of "psy y-stone," l" we have about made arrange menn =:th Jsdge Berry, Register of the Land otice, to give each man farm in Tonto Basin, or the valleys of the White Mountain streams, where they can have the pleasure Of living near neighbors to thousands of ami. able, tTaetable" Apacbes. Mineral men, or those whose hope of making piles are imbed. ded in the primary rocks, will receive 4 feet'' in lodges that have never paid cent, so tha, they msy rest assured of one thing; {. C, that if they ever contained "pay," it is there yet These are "brave" propositions, and should subscribers come forward in q toc headlOng manner, the carrying out of said propositions may ruin Us.

GRrESBAcKs are now almost as good as gold, the latest quotations being 90 and 9l. Several merchants and bankers at the East have commenced doing business on specie basis and t was thought there that Govern ment would soon inaugurate specie payments. We hope so, but fear not. There are too many inhAtionists" in Congress. Prices East were put down to tally with the up- ward tendency of paper, and, we hear that the merchants of Prescott are going to fol- low suit.

GREAT GOLD Exerrsxrsr IN sAs DrEoo.

GREAT GoLD ExcIrEsEsT is SAs DiEeo. Nearly all California is excited over some rich mineral discoveries said to have been recently made near the head of the San Diego river, in San Diego county, California, and people were rushing there us fast as steamers and stages could take them. One or two ledges of gold-bearing rock had, it Is said, been dis covered, which assay immensely. We know DO good reason why rich quartz should not exist in the mountains back of. San Diego, ss we'll As in other mountains, but it strikes us as something strange that the reputed large and iAbulously rich lodges were not discov- cred long ago.

The Best and Safest Route for Man and
 Beast.

l. pleases us 10 know that Texan emigrants and drcses are turning their attention to the 18th parallel route, and that many people with their herds, will pass over it next sum mer IL is as short if not shorter than the old southern route; the climate is milder; water, grass aud timber are plenty upon it, and there is lsss danger of attacks from ln- dians than on the other road therefore, with all these advantages in its favor, i. would be strange, indeed, if droyers and emigrants should not give it the preference. We know how hard it is to turn people from an old, Hell-knogn course, over which thousands have traveled before them, but, when it be- comes generally known, as it now is, that the soathern route is poorly provided with grass, water and fuel that the heat, in summer the season in which emigrants generally pass over that portion Of it between the Rio Grande snd the Gila-is intense; that Indi- ans are constantly watching ii, they will un- doubtedly abandon 1t and take the route of the 35th Parallel, through this Territory.
 Since writing the above, we have learned  that herds of cattle are now on the way here from. Southern Arizona, the object of their owners being to drive them to California, ria the Hardyyille road. Their reasons for this strange proceeding are good; There is but very little grass south and, AS the cattle are poor, their owners doubt very much whether they would stand 1t to be driyen across the deserts. By driving them up here and on to California, they will be in good condition by the time market Is reached.
 Knowing that we have made enemies by the advocacy of the 35th parallel route, and i having an idea that more will soon be added to the list, our only excuse or plea for so do- ing is that the opening of the route will be | of great benefit to the entire Territory Then, those who may travel it will see a country worth something, and not series Of deserts. They may take fancy toyt, settle ia it, and keep on doing 30 until ;he Central portion of the Territory is filed up with
 farmers, miners and stock raisers. For thC
 past ten or twelve years, thousands of peo pie have passed over the southern route, yet not over 5O0 of them have been induced tC
 settle in the Territory. Such will not be th'
 case should the travel be turned our way.

WHEAT AND BARLEY.-We are assured by farmers from every section of the county that the growing crops of wheat and barley are looking and doing splendidly. Through ca: ;he southern section ei ;ss eesE;y, these cereals will be ready for harvesting early next May. Here, the winter wheat and bar ley will not be ready for harvesting until about the first of July. Jus, now, it looks as though our Touring mills, of which there are some six or seven in the Territory, will have enough 10 do, the coming summer and fall, and VIC may reasonably expect that al most enough wheat will, this year be raised, to make sufficient breadstuf for home con sumption, and that the price of the article will decline to twelve or thirteen dollars per hundred. There IS no good reasou-eIeept the presence of the eonfounded Apaches-- why our rich Territory should not, in short time, become selfsustaining. But for the raEages of ths sayages she would have occu- pied that independent position long ago.

A PoISr WELL TAKES.-The New York HsTdld makes 4 sharp point in regard to the Southern States being required to ratify the Fifteenth Amendment as a condition of res. toration 10 the Unior. As they could not be trusted to come in and then ratify it. they rstihsd fipt and then came in. They werr. therefore, not in the Union. Either, then, says the Hsrald, all the reconstruction law, Of Congress are invalid, or these Southern notifications Of the Fifteenth Amendment are lnVahd. If the States were in the Union, there was no need to admit them, and if they
 were not in the Union they could not par tcipate in making laws for States that are in.
