LOCAL MATTERS.

LOCAL MA l ! As4A~SSs
 FULLY & OCuoA sent a portion of their train to Bowie this week loaded with gov ernment stores,
 ATTENTION is directed to the advertise ment this week of s. II. Draohman, who has opened a new stock of goods in Le- sinsky's old corner, and proposes to sell them cheap for cash.
 MR. GOLDBERG furnished the office this week with Q bo,tIo of sweet Mu5catel Wine. It is harmless and good to ta6e, and it certainly possesses the virtue of being free from drugs. Goldberg has plenty ofthe same kind for sale at his store.
 MOORE 6s CARR have put or four-horse coaches between hereand MarCope Wells. which shows that business on this line is improving. The mails and passengers arrive on the evenings previous to the mornings on which they have heretofore arrived.
 MosE, the Apache that Lie1t. Bourke taught to initiate the Jew iu ze'ling old clothes. has been here 'lls week plying his profession in the Hebrew art. He de- ciares each suit he sells was made for the Prince of Wales, and at the same time calls the Prince hard names, which indi cates that he is not loyal BriEon-
 JAMES LEE is putting a new engine and boiler into the Tucson Flour Mill and is also attaching a saw mill to the same machinery. He has about 50, GOO feet of logs cut at the new pincrv and in tends to commence drawing them soon, and will after the mill starts 0e able to keep the Tucson market supplied with lumber at reduced prices.
 THE weather has been quite war1n this week, the thermometer at times rising as high as 105 degrees. Previous to this the weather has been remarkably cool, and.we were beginning to think that the near approach of teiegraphs and railroads had induced the clerk of the weather to send Us cooler breezes for our summer com fort; but we expect that poor soldier will still have tO return for his blanket.
 THE smelling furnace near Tucson has been completed and ores are now being smelted. We understand that 1t works well and that considerable copper and silver is being run into bars. This is the right kind of an enterprise. We have plenty of rich ores that with a small out lay of money would yield copper, silver and lead sufficient to load every team with back freight that brings goods here, which would be great advantage to the teamsters as we'll as every one doing busi- ness in the country.
 AprHv McTNrosE with ten Arvaipa Apac1es arrived iu Tucson from Prescott OD Monday and IeiJ Wednesday for Grant s aT r... airy horses and were as fine a looking set Of gentlemen as ever cut g. throat OI sCut- tied a ship, but Archy understands h. dian character to perfection and under his management these children Ct the for est are made Of great service in the cause Of peace Mcintosh has been gEI ioriur the country from the San Carlos to Pres colt with view of opening a wagon road between these localities, and says that there will be no difficulty in making a good road
 N THE work of building the post at Lowell is still going on slowly. There seems to be some hitch about the amount, (Sl7, ,OOO, ] that was set apart to build the post. On account of some order it is doubtful whether it can be used. The amount was very insignificant tc build a four company post with, and without 1t very little head way can be made. It does seem as though Gen. Crook is expected to do more and is given less to do it with than any person we ever knew, but he is too good a soldier to complain, and as the troops at Lowell have lived about ten years without Quar- ters, we suppose that they can do so q few years longer.
 THE Papago Indians have nearly all left Tucson and are now harvesting their own fields near San Xavier and assisting other farmers in the different portions of the Territory, while the women follow after the reapers and gather what would other wise be wasted. The women make all the ollas that are used in this section of the country. They are made during the win ter months. From November to April they supply the larger portion of the hay used in Tucson. The women go from three tu a'l u.' D. E5-'lUG it anu t-el sell 1t about town as they ind purcLd- CTS They have considerable stock and man age to live very Wel. A good many of the men like liquor GLu VII. drink iJ and get drunk as white gentlemen do, when they can get it. but we nave seen less drunkeEnesS among them than usual this year, and presume the recent act Of the Legislatur3 las md q restraining etLcc-.
 MAGILL ALDEooA was arrested and lodged in jail this week on suspicion of Delng one of the party who murdered R. smith over two years ago. He bears a pad reputation and for number of days previous to the murder of Smith he had been seen with band of supected cut !hroats in the vicinity of Tucson, and the oay previous to Smiths murder this party was seen going in the direction of his
