therefore take notice that they will be ex- peeted to perform the service awarded to them through the whole contract term.
 lo. Section 249 of the act of June 8. 1872. proViaes that contracts for the transperta- ton of the mail shaI be "awarded to tbe lowest bidder rendering sufficient guaran- tees for faithful performance, without other reference to the mode of such trapsporsa- ton than may be necessary to provide for the que celerlty, certainty, and security thereof" Under this law bids that nronos, to transport the mails with "ceIer;iv. co,- tainty, and security" having been decided to be the only legal bids, are eo..strued as providing for the entire mail, however large, and whatever may be the mode of conveyance necessary to insure it's "celerity. certainty, and security" and have the pref erence over all others, and no others are considered, except for steamboat routes.
 l9. modification of bid in any of it's essential terms is tantamOunt to a new bid, and cannot be received, so as to interfere with regular competition. Making a new bid, with guarantee and certificate, is the: only way to modify previous bid.
 ZO. Postmasters are to be careful not to certify to the suficiency of guarantors with. out knowing that they are persons of suffi- cient responsibility. (See section PAT, act of June 8, lS72.) They must not sign the certificate til the sum of the bid is insert ed, and the bid and guarantee are signed by the bidder and (two) guarantors a dis regard of this instruction oy postmasrers will subject them to immediate removal. and to severe penalties.
 POstmasters are also liable to dismissal from office for acting as agents of contract Ors or bidders, with or without compensa- tion, in any business, matter, or thing, re- lating 10 the mail service. They are the trusted agents of the Depar'men t, and can- not consistently act in both capacities.
 2l. All bidders, guarantors, and sureties are distinctly notified that on a, failure to enter into or perform the contracts for the service proposed for i'll the accepted bids. their legal liabilities will be enforced against them.
 P. Present contractors, and persons known at the Department, must, equally with others, procure guarantOrs and cer- tifcates of their suffciency substantially in the forms above prescribed. The certif- cate ofsuffieiency must be signed by post- master. .-- rE.e

1 having legally secured their water claim, are now opening their canal at or near Il point on the Gila river known as Pueblo Viejo, and are prepared to offer superior inducements to those desirOus of mOnied investments, or wishing to obtain interests in the company by labor. They also will contract to furnish water at low rates to those desiring to take up and cul- tivate the lands contiguous. Itis the most fertile valley in the Territory. The eli
 mate mild in winter and not too warm in summer. The mountains near by abound in valuable mineral resources, are well timbered, while the foothills are covered the year through with the most nutritive grasses. The Texas and Pacific Railroad will pass along the valley for miles. The new military post at Mt. Graham, short distance off, as well as the posts at Camp Apache, Camp Bowie and the Indian Reser- vutions adjacent, will afford ample markets and without competition for all the pro duce that can be rais ed in the valley, thus offering inducements unsurpassed Dy any point in Arizona to actual settlers. For full particulars, enquire Ut the 0ftlee 0f the company in Tucson. C. h. LOkD,
