Railroad Items.

The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe rail road is surveyed as far as Pueblo, Colorado The company claim to have completed l. lOf miles of road in the past year, a fact, they say, no other American company has ever done. That this road will be built as far ss Santa Fe is pretty certain. Whether if will stop there, or come on this way is as vet un. known to us.
 The people who live along the line of the Kansas Pacific are complaining of it's bi0b freight tariff, and are using ox-trains. as of yore.
 So profoundly secret are the workines q, the Atlantic & Pacific, the Texas Pacific and Southern California Railroad companies. we dare not venture an assertion regarding what any one of them are going to do. One thing Is certain, they will soon have to show their hands. If the Southern Pacific comnanv would go to work in earnest, a year need moi go ty before their trains would be unloading rich ireights on the banks of the Colorado
 As for the Texas and Pacific, those who formerly had most confidence in it's early completion are now losing that confidence Even San Diegans are commencing to see through Mir. Tom Scotts rusty armor and are accusing him of breaches of faith.
 But, there IS no telling what day. \ week or month may bring forth, and so, tn. MINER will continue to wait and hope for the fleet messengers of civilization.

We'll Deserved Praise.

General Orders No. 6, from Headquarters Department of Arizona, dated Prescott, Feb ruary 2C, 1873, read as follows:
 Captain M. P. Small, Commissary of Subslst. ence, having reported in compliance with para graph (, Special Orders No 26l Adjutant Gener- ais Ofice, series of 1872, Is hereby announced as Chief CoInmissary of Subsistence Of the Depart oient, relieving Major A. w. Evans, Third Cavalry.
 In parting with Major Evans, the Department Commander desires 10 express his appreciation Of the zeal, fidelity and ability with which he has full flied the duties Of his responsible office, rendered more difficult from the tact that during his sd- ministration an Indian war has existed, necessi- tating rapid and unexpected changes of troops, which, to provide for, required unremtting labor and care on the part of tue Chief COmmissary.
 The foregoing is by command of Brevet Major General Crook, and is countersigned by 4. II. Nickerson, Captain Twenty third Infantry, A. D. c. and A. A. General. It is far from being idle or falsome praise. Crook we kaOw-mcaDt every word of it, and Evans is justly entitled to it, for the hard, fsitbfu1 work he has performed.
