parties, in the mineral resources of the terri tory y.--resourccs which, we believe. to be as great and extensive as those of any State or Territory on the Pacific slope, or any other section of the globe. Of course, no big sales have recently been made, but men--intelli- gent, solid men, have recently sent good judges to examine the mines, and they have examined, and pronounced many of them good so, the chances arc that wealthy com panics will soon take hold here, and help themselves and the country. We earnestly hope so, for the belief is firm in the minds of sli our people that when men of intelligence, and means, take hold of good mines here, they will get results that will please and as tonish them. For proof of these assertions, we have only to refer the reader to results already obtained in nearly every mining dis trict of the Territory. If we go down to the Colorado, we will there find, ncnr the edge of the waters of that navigablc stream, scores of rich mines, some of which are now being worked with profit. And, not only in one spot, or place, for such nises are plenty upon each sIde of said river, from its mouth to and above Fl Dorado Canyon. The same is true of tue lower Gils, of the regions adjoining Wiekenburg, PhpniX, Florence, Tucson, anl dozen other settled points of tic Territory. Time and space will not now permit us to speak of any other results than those had in our own county, SO VIC win commence with
 NtRTTNrZ DISTRICT
 It is reported in town, that the cleanup of the ten-stamp mill at wickenburg, running on Mayfower rock, yicled over $loo per ton of fine gold worth 500 per ounce. The mill was running on surface rock, not selected, and the yield surprises many old miners, as there is much white quartz which is usually found to be barren. The success of this run will probably cause the Mayiower owners 10 put up twenty stamp mill al or near the mine The rock already crushed was hauled eighteen miles, and was to test it's quality. We hear tha, the May flower grows better as it goes down, the rCck changing to disoolored, rotten quartz comparatively free from sul- phnrets.
 AfkESEtHG DISTRICT.
 But one lode is, at present, being operated upon in this district-the "Vul,urc lode, ,'-- and that is yielding plenty of rich rock, more than enough tokeep the fine forty stamp mill of the Yulture Mining Company running day and night, AS it has run for years past, with but few Interruptions Indeed tue best thing we can say for this mine, is that it supports not less than five hundred persons.
 WALNUT GROVE DISTRICT.
 Lies little to the northeast of Wicken- burg, and contains many very promising lodc-, some of which have paid as high as sl50 Co the ton, by arastra process. Parties are now at work there upon ore that pays Sf0o to the ton. The district is well sup piled with water, and wood is quite plenty. We know of no Letter opening for a mill, unless it Ne the
 BRADSHAW DISTRICT,
 through which runs belt of the richest god hearing quartz ledges ever seen by mortal man, and which is in the midst of finely timbered, wel-watcred region, about B. miles from Prescott, and 35 or 80 from Wick enburg. Among the recent discoveries in this district, we have heard of and seen rock from the following named lodges Hidden Treasure, 5O inches in width: Star, ,sout 2 feet; Blandua, 10 feet; Occanica, Belfast and New Era. We do not know the width of the three last named lodges The Star is famous for carrying pieces of wire gold, as long as pin, some cf which are quite thick The other iedges are rich in large and small particles of gold whole sides of some speei- mems of ore which we have seen from all Of them, being literally covered with tue prcdou. metals. of course, severn. other lcd-cs have recently been found, the names of which we do not know, and, consequently, cannot give. The Dei Prsco, the first lode opened and worked in the district, still keeps up it's high reputation, and feet tn it cannot be bought for so per foot, although it has not been opened to & greater depth than 2J feet Should cold weather not prevent its owners from working it, this winter, in their arsa- tras, thousands of dollars will be taken out of it.
 The placers recently found, arc said to be rich. Parties are fitting out for winters stay in the district, and we hope they will do well.
