The weekly Arizona miner., 1872-10-05

Araeas. sf the frequent inquiries of par ties wishing ts settle here and of the fact tkat with all the Indian troubles and other difficulties the country. was steadily i'm proving in substantial progress.
 The new post routes and post offices, land districts and other matters were re. ferred to and some account was given of the way in which public business is con- ducted in Washington and the pressure there.
 MT. Mccormick said the people of Arizona had Eonored him and he had studied to do his whole duty to them and to give the Territory the best possible standing at the East, and he be- lieved he had obtained for it as much of attention and aid as had ever been given any Territory of. equal population. Of course, he had not pleased every one of his constituents-no man could do that: but he thought his present reception and the fact that after two elections to Con- gross he was supported for third term, which he had not asked, with little. if any opposition, indicated that he had pleased as many as any man could expect to. If reelected he would be stimulated to try to do more for the Territory than he had yet done aud he had now an ex- perience and acquaintance at Washington, which must give him many advantages as @ representative.
 He referred to the organization of Del. cgates (of which he is the chairman) as having enabled them to concentrate their efforts and obtain better hearing in Con- gross than ever before, and in conclusion, he hoped the people of Arizona would have patience and tenacity to hold fast. for the era of peace, prosperity and railroads, could not now be far distant.
 The talk of which we give but a synop- sis, occupied an hour and a quarter, and was frequently applauded, particularly the allusion made by Mir. Mccormick to General Crook and his policy of dealing with Indians.

MINING ITEMS.

We kAis week received call from Mfr. G. IT. F. Curtis, miner of our county, who has just returned from visit to California, and who, we believe, has made arrangements with wealthy San Francisco capitalists, which will soon lead said capitalists to aid in the devel- opment of mining and agricultural resources here. MT. Curtis visited Grass Valley and other mining districts of California, and is emphatic in saying that there is, within circle of 90 miles around Prescott, more rich gold and silver quartz than can be found in- s,de the same space in California, Nevada or any other mining state.
 He thinks that Messrs. Bowers and Cook will reach this place soon, prepared to put up . mill to work the Tiger Lode.
 A great deal of high grade ore has recent ly been shipped to San Francisco from Mo have and Yuma counties, and late news from Wallapai, Castle Dome and and other leading districts in said counties, attest the fact that more is being raised from over dozen mines.
 "Let us have peace," and Arizonans will soon prove to the world that they are not braggarts, as we'll as! they have proven that they are not towards.
 But for the Indian war that has thinned their ranks, crippled and impoverished them, they would to-day be in good circumstances, ! and the Territory would be second to none lin the Union.

FROM MoHAvE COUNTY.
Mining Matters--Death of Bad Indis

Mining Matters--Death of Had Indian
 By the arrival of John Potts (firm of Cory & Potts), and Dr. Joseph Lesesne, of Cerbat, Mohave County, we arc placed in possession of the following facts:
 Not long since, as friendly Wallapai Ind ian was hunting for game, he met an Apache Mohave Indian of his acquaintance; a con- versation followed their first greeting, which led to a personal encounter, which ended in victory for the Wallapai, who, soon after, strutted into Camp Beale Springs with the arms, etc., of the foe. he had killed.
 The Apache -Mohave accused the Wallapais of treachery to their race, for having joined the whites, and said that himself and all oth- CT Apache. Mohaves would thereafter, look upon the Waliapais as foes, to be killed when ever opportunity offered. The Wallapai re- turned the compliments" at it they went, with the result above stated, upon learning which, Shurum, Chief of the WalIapais, said he meant to go on the trail of the Apache Mohaves and kill several of them.
 Mining Matters
 Were very encouraging, both in Wallapai and Wauba- Yuma districts. Dr. Lesesne, who has recently arrived from the Cerro Cor do mining region of California, says that Wal lapai beatsi Cerros Gordo. He brought in some very; rich and beautiful specimens of sil- yer ore which may be seen at this office
 Both gentlemen started back on Wednes- day morning:

POLITICAL.

The Court house was packed with ladies and gentleman on the evening of Thursday last, who listened attentively to remarks by ex- Governor Mccormick, which remarks ap- peared to satisfy all present of the fact that Mir. Mccormick had done all that'a Delegate to Congress could have done for his eonstita: ents. '~ f' *'''f = : ..' 's-' -@' The choice of the citizens of Arizona, for President, can be made known at our generaf election, if voters will go to the trouble of writing the name of the candidate of their choice for that position. Of course, as -citi7 zens of Territories have no voice in the cleo tion of President and Vice-P President, our voting could have no other effect than to show which of the G's Arizona prefers.
 It is almost impossible to get good, compea tent men to serve the counties as supervisors, owing, principally, to the insignificant per diem allowed supervisors by the Code, which is only S3 per day in county script. Next Legislature ought to raise it to $5Eor SC per day. >,. .'
 NIL. Peralta and c. H. Veil say they can not leave their business to attend next ses- sion of the Legislature, in consequence of which, the Democratic County Central Com mittee will have to nominate other men to fill their places on tue ticket. We regret, exceedingly, that Messrs. Veil and Peralta have declined to run, for the reason that they are exceedingly popular citizens, as. we'll as able and practical business men. Their sup port will, of course, be givento the Demo- cratic ticket.
 Citizens will please bear in mind that, while the MINER is neutral as regards politi- cal issues in the counties, its columns are open to all parties and candidates who may wish to use them for legitimate purposes But, it must not be forgotten that the la borer is worthy of his hire, and that it costs money to set type, &c.
 We arc glad to be able to inform our home readers that Captain J. P. Hargrave, of this town and county, hss at last consented to al- low his name to go before the people, as an independent candidate for the Legislative Council. See his announcement, under head of new advertisements.
 Two tickets-Democratic and Peoples are in the field in Maricopa County.
 The Democrats have nominated Colonel K. S. Woolsey for joint Councilman.
 Ex-Governor Mccormick will leave here early next week, and expects to be able to speak at wickenburg on next Thursday evening.

Those Diamonds.

The diamond field is not yet located to the satisfaction of the public, nor is it settled that the diamonds exhibited in California were natives of the United States, since the London nms and other English authorities say they were purchased in London. But, no matter, the exhibitors who may have burosd their 6ngenin the diapond blaze are yet karping upon the "fields."

Donation to the Public School

Just before leaving Prescott for the river coustios, Governor SafFoed informed us that ex-Governor McC Cormick had given him (Gov' SafFord.) sloo with Instructions to divide it among the school districts of the several counties, duty which Governor 'Safford will be pleased to perform.
 Our Public School system is just now, we nay ssy in it's infancy, and every donation of money that may be made, will be thank.
 While upon this subject, iia Ss may a. well state that the educational .tBill," upon which Mir. Mccormick made sensible speech, at last session of Congress, has passed the House and will, no doubt, become law next session

Colonel NJ. o. Davidson died suddenly at bis house in Fordham, Westcbester county, New York, quite recently. He was the only surviving brother of Lucretia and Mar garet Davidson, who, thirty years ago, were celebrated for their poetic talents.

He was wellknown in Southern Arizona, at one time, as the Su- perintendent of the Heintzeimann, or Oerro Colorado mine. He was about 55 yearseold.
