that Messrs. Goodwin & McKinnon were min ing and working richer and better ore from their claim on the War Eagle lode, than that worked by them in the late successful run. They will, MT. Cole thinks, clean up SlOO to the ton, perhaps more.
 Quite recently, Jesse Jackson concluded to | save the water, as it left the mill, and use it | over again. This plan has enabled him to | run his five stamp mill and arastras eight or nine hours each day, and his supply of water is not decreasing, the chances are that he will be able to do so until rain or snow falls. The orc he is crushing is good, and he is well satisfied with the results.
 In the past three months, Mir. Cole and one other man have sunk a siXty-f foot shaft and drove 1O-foot tunnel on the War Eagle. This shaft is well timbered. Foul air forced him to cease driving it farther in the ledge, and caused him to run the tunnel spoken of, all of which work was done without the aid of a single grain of powder or other blasting material This mine is pretty well prospected
 for distance of 4,000 feet, and good judges pronounce it the richest and best gold mine
 in the world. The quartz is abundant, and
 will pay from S20 to Sl00 per ton.
 The number of men in Bradshaw is not
 great, but all are doing something towards
 developing the country.
 Persons just arrived from Wickenburg tell
 us that Smiths l0-stamp mill was doing well
 with Vulture ore at the time they left. The
 proprietor was making moves towards erect
 ing furnace. Mir. Peter Taylor, Mir. Smiths
 assistant, was doing well amalgamating in an
 arastra. Having quite recently visited Scot
 land and satisfied himself of the utility of
 road steamers there employed, he told friend
 of ours that with one of them to haul
 ore from the Vuture mine, the poorest class
 of ore that comes out of that mine, or that
 ever has, could be hauled to the mill and
 worked with profit
 Walnut Grove continues the liyeliest min
 ing district in this part of Arizona. All the
 arastras are running; miners are taking out a
 great deal of rich gold and silver rock, while
 searchers after new lodes are almost every
 day rewarded with "fnd."
 The only gold dust known to have been
 brought to town this week came from the Hassayampa. It was taken in by c. P. Head & Co.,, in payment of goods, worth between S17 and SIS per ounce.
 Yuma County. Mir. A. Frank, who arrived here Monday
 last, from Ehrenberg, informs us the l0-stamp
 mill at the Constancia mine was running, un-
 der directien of the new superintendent, who was in good spirits. Mir. Frank thinks that : he (Mr. Burns) will make success. late Los Angeles Express has the fol- lowing
 , "A large, six-mule team was started from | this city yesterday, with stores and machin-
 cry, tn Castle nnme Di-,yiot in AYi.oa.- The
 supplies are for the Silver Cloud Company, who have three very promising lodges. A r shaft has been sunk on one over hundred
 feet, and the ore at that depth assays splen-
 didly. It is what is termed base ore a mix , ture of argentiferous galena, carrying high percentage of silver. The extensive pros pecting that has deen done, shows to the en- 3 tire satisfaction of MT. Morrill,, who is the , very experienced and reliable Superintendent , of the company, that the property very val
 uable, and very extensive in its pay ores. ! The principal owners of these mines are
 Messrs. F. Stanford, Henry Dockweiler and 1 John Golfer, all of this city.
 Maricopa and Pima counties contribute no . mining news for this issue.
 6 Mohave county people are hopeful as ever, and this hope leads them to work in their 9 mines and make an honest living by shipping a ore to San Francisco. Some of them arc, oi @ course, making little money by working rock in arastras and furnaces.
 It is pity that capital is so tardy about
 coming here and it is a shame that what R few foreign" capitalists have purchased g mines in our counties do not pretend to work Il them. But, we are used to "drawbacks" and $ vexatious acts, and can stand these. t Mir. Caldwell Wright, of Cerbat fovors us a with following:
