DELEGATE MCCORMICK.

After unexpected delays upon public
 matters appertaining to Arizona, Dele
 gate Mccormick left Washington
 August 13. It was his purpose tc
 have proceeded directly to Los An
 geles, thence to Ehrenberg, Mohave,
 Wallapai mines, Prescott and other
 places to Tucson; but upon his ar
 rival at San Francisco, he found the
 Texas and Pacific Railroad party en
 route to San Diego, the members of
 which insisted that he should join them and be one of them during their
 important business visit to San Diego,
 and incidentally to Santa Barbara
 and Los Angeles. This railroad en- terprise is of such vital interest to Ari-
 zona; the President and Directors thereof are such prominent and in- huential men, and their recent mis- sion of national as we'll as local i'm portance, 1t was Governor McCor- mick's judgment, and correctly so, that he could not serve the interests of his constituents better than by an ac- ceptance of the cordial invitation ex- tended him; and any one who will take the pains to read up the reports of the movements of the railway party can but be convinced of not only the passing but future advan- tages of this ten or more days social and business intercourse. The press is unanimous in praises of his high standing and ability. The Alta Cali fornia of August 23, had these re- marks:
 At the conclusion of the speeches at the meeting of the citizens at Union Hall last evening, an invitation was extended to Senator Sherman, Colonel Forney, Gov ernor R. c. Mccormick and others, to at tend a reception rendered in hOno of their visit to San Francisco at the residence of Senator Cole. An hour was passed in a delightful way. Governor Mccormick, who was present, is now en route for Ari zona, and will accompany the Texas Pa cifc Railroad party to-day on the San Diego steamer. He will be again before the people of the Territory, which he has so well and honestly served, for reelection to the office of Territorial Representative to Congress. There is no doubt whatever of the result. The people of Arizona have always been noted for their warm appre- citation of those who have done them good service, and in Govern or Mccormick they their greatest and most devoted friend, and one who has accomplished all that any man could have done to aid the people in their strenuous efforts to settle aud tranquilize the country.
 At the same date, The Evening Bull letin said:
 Honorable R. C.. Mccormick, Congress sional Delegate from Arizona for the last four years, and formerly Governor of the Territory, is stopping at the Grand Hotel in this city. He starts for San Diego to- 1 en route for Arizona, wher he has been renominated for Congres without op position, and is supported by men of all parties in recognition of able and faithful service hitherto.
 The San Diego and Los Angeles pa pers are equally complimentary, and their compliments are we'll founded.
 Governor Mccormick was due at Ehrenberg yesterday. From thence he will go to Wallapai mines, thence to Prescott and on down this way as fast as he can consistently with his health and public duties.
 WE are informed that General Howard is soon expected at the Grant
