MINING.

Messers. Pointer, Johnson, and Mellen, from Lynx Creek, were in town during the week, all bringing some dust There is suf- iicient water for rocking in the creek, and about dozen men are at work, averaging about $500 per day each.
 Messrs. Collier, iIatz and other owners in Goodwin mine arc getting out ore which they propose 10 send to San Francisco.
 Seyera! new quartz lodes have been re- gently discovered between town and Brad shaw, but, as they are no richer than hun dreds of others located years ago, the only point gained is that the finders will know where the veins are when the country comes out if they live so long.
 Tue latest news from Wickenburg is that the Nulture mining company has not begun Co sink an artesian well at the mine, nor to lay pipes tO carry water from the creek to the mine, nor to build a railroad to carry ore from the mine to the mill, though our cores pondent believes that all these improvements are contemplated and wilt eventually be completed, perhaps sooner, if not before.
 Messrs Linn, Cole, Sheckels, Roberts and few more, are rust stOedt)ing in Bradshaw
 The ore on the Tiger dump is slowly de- sulphurizlng, or de-oXidizing, or decayinq somehow, in the sun, and showing under thi, process more and more silver every day and water is still running out of the original ll0Ioot shaft on the Tiger. So Bradshaw i: safe.
 During Marion's absence his substitute ha. cheaned the sanctum of all the piles o | choice ores that were labeled, boxed, ant | lying around loose, and has notified severa enquirers after specimens that the MINEI cabinet has been disposed Of. Col. Edward Cany and w. Rice have beer to the Cornucopia lode, on the eastern slop, of the Black Hills, examining the vein witt a view to opening the same. Col.

Military News.

Captain Thomas McGregor, lst Cavalry, with a small escort, arrived Sunday last. Ills company, which Is in the field operating against hostile Indians, Apache Iumas) will be conducted to Fort Yuma, CaiiOnia, by Captain A. II. Nickerson, where it will await the arrival of Company "I 1st Cavalry, and then proceed by steamer Newborn to San Francisco. Company "I,n 1st Cavalry, Capt C. C. c. Carr, arrived at Fort Whipple on Tuesday last, and left for Camp Mvhave on Wednesday.
 Capt. McGregor, Lieut.. Wesendorff, and such men of Company A." list Cavalry, as were at Fort Whipple, left for Camp Mohave on Wednesday last
 Company "D," of the 1st Cavalry. left Camp Mcdowell on the 10th, for Fort Yuma, California Company "E," lst Cavalry, are under orders to proceed from Date Creek to Camp Lowell, has been ordered, temporarily, to Camp Mcdowell
 Hospital Steward, II. c. Schmide!. has been assigned to duty at Fort Whipple, re- lleying Steward Lyons, who has been ordered to Camp Hualpai.
 Companies IL, and M,n lst. Cavalry, were ordered to leave Camp Apache and march ria Fort Winga,e to the railroad. and arc probably now on the way.
 new road Is being constructed between Camps Grant and Verde, which, with the one iO be laid out between Verde and Apache will not only greatly facilitate ordinary travel but be of great assistance to the military.
 Heretofore, military movements towards the Tonto Basin and along the edge of Black Mesa have been greatly hampered by the lack of supplies; mule trains being the only means of transportation. When these roads are constructed, as they will be, directly through the Tonto country, they will afford facilities for active campaigning, superior to any which has yet existed.
 Capt. McGregor and family were serenadej by the 23d Infantry Band, prior to their de- parture from Fort Whipple.
 Captain Wilson, 5th Cavalry, has been or dercd with his company to duty at the new reservation near Peck's Lake, on the Verde
 Lieut.. Dodge, 23d Infantry, has been as- signed to duty with him.
 Captain Brown assumed command of Camp Grant May lst.
 Lieut.. R. II. POillon, 23d Infantry, and Lent. P. G. Wood, 18th Infantry, we under stand, have rendered their resignations.

stand, the company conteinplates building wharf for the purpose of landing its material, and am not aware that even the necessary timber for this purpose has been contracted for. However, that the work of building the road has been commenced is dead certainty, and that it will be continued without inter mission is equally true if the statements oi those first in authority go for aught, and to me, at least, they are satisfactory. The honor of turning the first sod was conferred upon A. F. Horton, who says this honor he deems greater than that conferred on the incumbent of the Executive chair of the state. One satisfactory feature vf the proceeding was that there was no idle expenditure of gas
 Real Estate.
 The real estate business has an upward ten dency. Real estate is foolish!y high in San Diego; you can hardly touch piece of prop eriy within half mile of the bay, and hence the influx of population, although by no means tardy, is much more so than 1t would otherwise be. Those who hold lands cxten- sively are always ready to sell, however; but when the party wishing to buy has learned his terms and finds that the agent or owner Is indeed inexorablc, he generally puts the ends of his fingers so far down into his pock- cts that they almost touch bis boots, and gracefully whistles himself across the street on kind ofa diagonal trot.
 Fishing
 Tue most thoroughly exciting amusement known to San Diegans Is encountered way l down on the sea" fishing with hook and line. l The fish chiefly sought is the barraconta. In ! general appearance 1t closely resembles the ! pike of the northern rivers although Agas- 1 sig ant other savans of pisiculture would 1 doubtless convince one ibat 1t bears just as strong an analogy to the turkey-buzzard, or | to the coyote At all events the time spent ] in taking the barraconta is pleasurably con sumed No bait necessary tO be used other than a piece of white rag, and frequently they will suffer themselves to be duped by the naked nook Two hundred and fifty of those fish were taken by a small party of excursion- ists in the space of two hours, last Monday
 Personal
 Among the familiar faces that nave met in San Diego, is your old friend Herman, the mining engineer. And would you believe 1t He is married, and has settled down in San Diego. He is engaged in mercantile business and Is largely interested in mines besides. have also met T. Bamun, on bis way back from the east. EVIL MERoDACH.
