TIoN.-We are told number OF addition
al relics of a by-gone civilization have
been found between here and Bullion
vile. We have in our possession a
piece OF the pottery, which is said to be
exactly like similar fragments found in
Arizona and New Mexico 1t is different
from anything in that line we ever saw,
but looks more like old-fashioned stone
ware than anything else we can think
OF. The coloring must be of metallic
origin, for it is a deep black, and has not
faded in the slightest degree through the
probable centuries that the fragment has
been exposed to storm and sun.
The ARIZONA Precious SToNls.-We
were to-day shown some specimens of
the precious stones concerning the dis
eovery of which dispatch recently ap-
peared in our columns from st. George,
Utah. Those examined by us are gar
nets, and not remarkable either for size
or brilliancy. We know a place up in
Montana where such can be gathered by
the peck. If there is nothing more
precious than the samples we examined
where they came from we see no cause
of anybody getting excited.
The PROPOSED ST. GEORGE MAu..-Mr.
Lund, of the Deseret Telegraph line,
just in from st. George, Utah, says he is
confident 5000 signatures could be OBJ
tanned in that place. and in the settle

or trl-weekly mail communication be-
tween Phoebe and st. George. A route
Is advertised between st. George and
Prescott, arizona, which should be ex-
tended on through to Phoebe. Who will
draft the necessary petitions, we again
ask?
The PACIFIC TuNNEL.-The Pacific
tunnel promises to more than realize the
expectations of the holders of stock in
the enterprise. A fine ledge of ore is
now being followed, and day and night
shifts are engaged. This is one Of the
mining enterprises of Southeastern Ne
vada which will bear scrutiny, Superin-
tendent Nichols ever taking pleasure in
exhibiting the developments to visitors.
Some ore is being extracted, and it can
be run out in immense quantities when
ever it is thought advisable to commence
milling,
GOLD QUARTz.-l here is something in
the report published in the RECORD, a
few days ago, of the discovery of rich
gold veins in the country north of us
Considerable excitement exists in South
Tintic (Utah) over recent discoveries OF
gold quartz in that city, and prepare.
tons were being made by large num-
Der OF miners in adjoining districts to
start for the digginss. A great rush is
anticipated as soon as spring fairly
opens, but we advise parties in this sec.
ton to remain at home and await further
developments before packing up.
CHANGE OF AGENcY.-T. +. Lawler
formerly railroad agent at Palisade, will
hereafter have charge of Pritchard'
fast freight business in Phoebe. Mr.
Lawler takes the place of George w
Dwight. 1t is line of business in which

there is no doubt our business men viii
be satisfied with his management.

ly of st. George, is now in Phoebe with
the intention of taking the management
of the Deseret Telegraph Company,
business at this place. Mr.. Lund hat

left there for Phoebe.
