The weekly Arizona miner., 1871-10-07

radcs have fallen victims to Apache cunning and brutality, while others again grew tired oi the dangers and vcisstudes of life here, and rctraccd their steps to regions where savage ycls never heard.
 But we have wandered from our mining tral which leads us to the WOOD LODE, Upon which we found a fourteen feet shaft, sunk by Cunayan X Co, who started in on very small stratum and followed t until when we were l there, 1t had developed into pretty fair sized l ledge
 ! Next came the PHILADELPHIA LODE In which Petermau tS Co. had driven shat, tweuty-one feet in depth, developing apretty lode | of rich quartz, and striking water. ! THE CEDAR LODE Showed two and n half feet of paying ore, q, | depth of thirty feet, which pleased it's owners, ! Bradley X O., who had started in on stratum 1 of about two and a half inches.
 '7l AND '5G We next visited two lodes named as above, by their discoycrer, Dr. Niles, formerly of Prescott, l and, ailcr having viewed them to our satisfaction l the conviction that Doc was in possession of two prizes forced itself upon Us and we started of to l take d look at the
 Ku KLUX, Not the bug bear Ku Klux conjured up by Radi. cal Night mares, but hneooking ledge, Of that name, containing silver and gold in paving quan- titcs and into which Messrs. Williams, Ridge. l way & Co. had picked and blasted shaft. THE uERPisoN LODE ! Was next viewed ft Is owned by Herbison * O., who had on the dump, about thirty tons of good milling ore.
 This ended our travels among the mines, and for the following facts regarding mines near Par kerville, al Inc Northern end of the mountain, l we are indebted to Wm. J. Fee and Capt. C. l.. 1 Welburn who related them to us, after we had rested ourself and partakcn of the best the Cap. tain had in the house.
 First comes the
 PORTER LODE, Which our informants assured us was A, No l. | lt belongs Co Messrs. Porter x Parker, who had gone down on 1t to depth Of twenty-five feet aud had taken out huge pile of free milling ore some of which they had sent 10 San Francisco. | Thtn
 THE DEFIANCE With shaft twenty feet deep, was, they said, good to gaze at. And
 THE ROSEBUD, A very nco lode belonging to the same parties.
 THE PANAwA, A very large galena lode WAS being prospectcd by an open cut. It is owned by Adams, Doollttle X Co.,
 THE WAR HORSE, Another galena lode--two feet thick owned by Sewers & Co.
 THE RIFI.KNAN, Four feet thick-free milling ore. Welburn X Co, owners. |. THE ASriETAM With thirty feet shaft, and two feet or more of silyercOpper glance ore.
 TUE ORIENTAL, large Galcna lode, aHea wE!ca :..ssc .s {. sh...- low shaft.
 THE PRIDE OF ARIZONA Into which an open cut had been run, revealing a spCndid-looking mass ot ore, some of which had yielded well in gold, silver and lead So we'll in- deed that the owners, Atchson te Co, were highly pleased with their prospects
 THE sUNFLowER A three feet vein, in a twenty feet shaft-contaln. ing carbonates and argentiierous galena in paying quantities. This lode belongs 10 CroIier x Co. THE CoNNoR LODE, or four feet-contans carbonate and free milling ores worth from slOO to S7O0 per ton. Canayaa & O., ProprictOrs. | THE DANIEL WEBSTER" AND DANDY" LopEs Belonging to San Francisco Company, had UT. dergone some picking, and both looked well.
 THE SILVER HILL LODE, Of painful memory, had a shaft l25 feet in depth. showing . three feet ledge of galGna and sulphu- ret orc, whica Frank Kemp and others were talk. ing out.
 In and abou, this shan, in 1866. Ira Wood. worth, Messrs. Judson, Baker and Benjamin were murdered by Wa!sapai Indians, and sam Noodle was badly wounded.

 Near by Is the Katy, another carbonate lode, whleh s M Atchlson X Co, were developing.
 THE EMPIRE, A large carbonate ledge belonging to Reed. Ian bert X O., has assayed from slOO to $500 10 the ton in silver. Considerable work has been done on this lode, and 1t bears very good reputation
 THE STARR KING Had a shait, yielding free milling ore Owners Sewers, Cuum x Co.,
 THE INDEPENDENCE Belonging 10 Hatch < Co, showed well on top but little work had been done upon 1t.
 THE TEcuNsEH Lode, belonging to Beatty tS Co.,, was very highly spoken oL In places on the surface, the crop ings, we were told, measured eleven feet and pieces of top rock had assayed high as $500 to the ton
 The aforementioned quartz odes, with several others not mentioned at all, are all in one short mountain range, which, as yet, IS no more than haf prospected This mountain range runs from north to south is not 10 exceed thirty miles in length by from three to six miles in width The formation of the entire range Is granite, and the lodges are mainly encased in tacose slate The range has long been known as the "Cerbat" In . ls63, Wallapai Indians carried specimens of quartz 10 Fort Mohaye, on the Colorado river ldistant about forty mlles), exhibited it to Cali. , lorna volunteers belonging to Captain Atchison's Company vho, soon after seeing the ore started s out, found and located several edges soon af. ter this, the Wallapais became hostile killed many miners aud prospcctors, robbed others, and pre-. vented the development of the mines until about , year ago, when Wm. ]. Fee and others located m Inc District, changed its name from "Sacramen. to to "Wallapai," relocated abandoned ground, , and set to work with will. From that day to this, progression has been the order of the day l haliaDal f0-1nV itg hus tfs,,,
