 GENEROSITY AND sELF-sACHIFiCE.
 The magnanimity of your crowd here is what catches me. DuGield is their pet now They have as with one voice petitioued the P. 0. Dent to relieve him from his arduous and dangerous duties as Postal Agent in Ari- zona. They say he served his country long enough and ought to be allowed to retire. They insist upon it, nay, they carry their spirit of salf-abnegation so far as to declare 10 the P NJ. General that they are willing he should send even John Allen he wickedest man in N. York. to fill the place sooner than compel Dufiield to longer continue his lsbors. Their Iieved!" Commend me to Arizona henceforth for real, true kindness of heart.
 PERSONAL.
 Governor Stafford has rooms adjoining those of Gov. Mccormick, and by his usnal popular and winning manners combined with that restless and resistless energy for which he is so distinguished, is securing for Arizona an att mt on in public circles, which though long merited, has rarely been attained The GoVa ernor has many old friends in the Senate, and they listen with interest to his account of the needs of Arizona. He has received particu- lar encouragement and assistence from Sen ators Stewart and Nye, who, from their long experien ce in Nevada are we'll acquainted with the wants and pains of Territorial life.
 Gov Mccormick enterlains splendidly. | His Iarge and e!sgnnt parlors are thrown open in the most hosEi!able manner to all Arizn- zaus ard to all their friends and to their friends, friends, so that it Is noted as one of the pleasantest place a Pacific coast lounger can find to drop in upon, as he seeks to hear the ne1s or pass an hour away.

NO MORE ANARCHY.

The election to Congress of R. c. McCor-
 mick as Delegate from Arizona has proven
 the greatest triumph which the people of this
 Territory have ever achieved. He was chosen
 O represent this people at time when their
 wants and necessi ties were almost unlimited
 and, with clear perception of those wants, while animated with feeling of responsibility he took his seat in the 4lst Congress, and throwing the whole energy of his soul into the task before him, set about the work of recon struction. While Delegate elect, and still ex- ercising executive authority he-eJ the most immaculate humbug that ever disgraced a judges bench, tie Hon. Mr, Backus, concluded to upset all the laws of the Territory, and having accomplished this to hiS entire satis- faction, then fled to the States to gloat in triumph over the wreck which he had occa- stoned. Meanwhile, Mccormick looked on composedly, and this being a matter in which the executive had no authority 10 inter fere, wisely kept his own counsel. He saw, however. among the many abuses to be cor rected, that the early correction of this one were paramount as people to prosper must be governed, and without law of course there can be no government Having been gwen to understand that no attention could be given to this affair during the short session of Congress, he was obliged to let the matter stand until the present. when he introduced his bill to legalze the former Legislatures of Arizona, and obtained for 1t that support which procured its passage. It is now law. The acts of our former legislatures have been doubly legalized, for scarcely had the echo of Judge Titus decisions, condemnatory of those of Backus, reached the confines of Arizona when another voice from Washington pro clans that law now prevails with us The wheels of our Territorial government are again in genuine motion and so distinct is he system as explained in the bill, so thorough the absence of anything approaching discord or confusion, that Judge Bacchus even though | he were under the influence of whatever the | god ofthat name has been said to represent, sh ould find himself unable 10 disturb peb- ble from its foundation

THE MINING EXCITEMENT.

A first class sensation has been set on foot by tbe Chronicle, with regard to silver mine in Arizona. Aparty of armed men have start ed for a mountain of pure silver. away down in Apachedom We suppose this Is Il revival of the scheme which was on foot some two years ago; then, it was gold mine, and the rock exhibited was stolen from the Vultlre mine The scheme appears 10 have number of believers-L A. Star.
 O, no, Mir. Star This time you are mis- taken. The present mining sensation is anything but groundless. True, the mine situated away down in Apachedom,' but being very extensive and, perhaps, the rich- est deposit of ore in the whole world-blocks of solid silver having been dug from it-the A oa- ches will soon be oblired to flee before the hundreds of people focking thither. The mine is in low range 0? hills which crosses the Rio Grande road, about four miles west of what is known as "Barney's station" and be- tween that road and the one by LeidendorF s Wells. This is in New Mexico, about fifteen east from Camp Bowie.
 From present indications this is likely to prove very great mining season for Arizona, and the attention of me of capital and enter prise is being turned this may from all parts of the world. Simultaneous ly with the discovery of the great mineral deposit in the vicinity of Apache Pass an English Company sends out an able and experienced agent to purchase the Cerro Colorado mine and promises to work on large scale at an early day,
 From reliable statistics we learn that quartz mining has been rendered ramunsrative ir Australia from yield of g per ton; this being the case what night not be realized from eur gigantic lodes that yield not less than S4O and from that up to S3,OOO to the ton. We are already in the grey mists of morning which has at length dawnsd upon cur long neglected Territory, and but few years more must witt ness the fall fruitioa of that glorious day in store fer us

The most attractive feature of all of the present operations Is the fact that the Atlantic and pacific people and 35th men are engaged ill preparing wildly written pamphlets in behelf O. their two roads, (all the same thing), while the Kansas Pacific, one of the best organized corporations in the country, has this week determined to find its way to Fulton Texas, Chich iS 0n ths 32d parallel 1 take great pleasure in informing you that the difference of opinion (and which at one time threatened q disruption) between the leading Texas men and Gen.
