Sentinel Things.

(Yums) Sentinel, of September 20th;
 Correspondence Of the editor, MT. C. L. Minor, dated Cerbat, September %, is full and interesting. Arriving ra, Camp Beale Springs, he met and compIimented Captain Thos. Byrne, commanding that post, Lieut.. Hurst and other citizens.
 Visiting Cerbat, the new county seat of Mohave county, he observed about l25 bous- es and cabins. Some of the houses he inti- mates, are superior to the average house of hi, own town, Yuma. Population of the place between $50 and 400. Mercantile houses were doing fair business for the cap ital invested.
 The smaller towns of Stockton Mineral Park and Chloride were also visited by our brother quill, who expresses himself pleased with their people and the wealth (mineral) surrounding them. Several arastras were running and paying.
 Coming to Prescott, by Webster & Whites stage, be found the road rough, on account of recent rains, but was we'll pleased on arriving here and meeting his friends, Capt. J. P. IIargrave, Dr. J. N. McCsndless and Judge Howard. Calling at the MINER office, dur ing our absence at Chino Valley, Col. Bige- low and Mir. Weaver greeted him. Calling again, shortly after our return to the sanc- tum, he was, we take it, astonished at not finding us all that his fancy painted us, and straightway proceeded to write down some very pleasing words about ourseif and better half, closing with kind wishes for things that are good, for all of which we feel duly grate- ful. Indeed, our only sadness comes of the fact that we were not at liberty to devote more time and attention to the comfort of brother Minor, who, nevertheless, left our village with . very good opinion of it, its people and business.
 MT. J. c. Bacon, acting editor, has another "Arizons and Sonora paper," Tn this issue, she wording of which is suggestive of good dictionary head.
 For news. we have an account of the hang ing (lynching) of Manuel Subiate, a Gila monster, who assisted in the murder of the late Mir Lumley. Subiate met bis just fate at Kenyon station. When caught, he was in custody of the sheriff, who tried several lodges to save bis prisoners neck, but all to no purpose.
 Capt. Pool, of the Colorado Navigation Company, had informed the editor that trips would be made every twenty days, between San Francisco and the mouth of the Colorado, by either the Montana or Newborn.
 Col. Martin, of the Pay Department, U. S. A.. had arrived, paid soldiers at Yuma, and started for interior posts. Capt Burns, 9th cavalry, Capt. Geo. F. Price, of same regi- ment, and K. II. Haines, of the telegraph line, had also arrived.
 Commenting upon what the San Diego World recently said,- ,--in effect that Mexico was about to sell Lower Cahfornia to Ger many, t is set forth that 1t would take a great many German troops to take and hold the section, as our Government would not be likely to stick its finger in its mouth during the fermentation of such sauer-krout bar gain.
 Sunday, September l4, boy named wm. Le Roy was crushed to death by a heavy box falling upon him, which box contained printing material for the Sentinel. The boys father was accidentally killed, IA month. ago.
 The Mexicans of Yuma celebrated the an niversary of that countrys divorce from Spain, by singing, shooting of anvils and guns. A certain house was decorated with Prussian, Mexican and American flags, raised above each other in the order in which we print them, which display would not last long here or elsewhere in the Territory, as the place for our glorious stars and bars is above all other flags.
