WE extract the following news items from the Sentinel of June !:

The body of Jesus Alvarez was found by stage driver on the road to Tucson, near Fiibuster Camp. He got lost some time ago and wandered of on the road to SO- nora. Finding his mistake he came back, but travelling seventy miles over a desert with little or no water so exhausted him that he diel before reaching the station. The body of Samuel Otz, Swiss, was found near the Laguna station having been scalped. Taylor and Rowell intend to complete the Courthouse at Yuma by the 4lh of July. It will be credit to the place.

 Judge Hayden returned this week from trip up toward the head waters Of Salt river. He has been examining the cOun- try and river with view of floating saw logs down 70 his ferry in Salt river val ley, and has become satisfied that the pro- ject is feasible. A gentleman who has had large experience in the lumber bus- iness in Maine and who has examined Salt river with view to float logs down to make lumber is of the opinion that it has advantages for purposes of that kind su- perior to any of the rivers in Maine. If such should prove to be the case, it will materially reduce the price of lumber in the settlements of Arizona, and will prove of great advantage in the construc- tion of the Texas Pacific Railroad and the military telegraph.

brance for all time to come.

WE have been shown some stone brought here by MT. Ochoa that will make excellent grind-stones. He informs us that he found it near the San Carlos, and that there appears to be an inexhaust- ible supply there. The cost of transport ing grind-stones is so great that there has always been a scarcity in the market, and those that have been brought here for sale have necessarily commanded a high price. From the material shown us we should judge that stones of a superior quality could be made from it. All that is required now is to find some one who knows how to make them, and then a profitable business can be made for the mechanic and much needed and valua- ble industry be developed for the Terri tory.

THE Cabinet at Washington has had under consideration the subject of what Is to be done with the Mo- docs? It is thought that they will be turned over to the civil authorities of Oregon to be tried for their crimes. This is undoubtedly the practical and fair solution of the question. Give them fair trial and if found guilty, punish them as white men would be punished. As soon as savages find that they will be held accountabl and punished for these deeds o1 treachery, they will be less liable tc perpetrate them. But heretofore those who have committed the worst crimes have received the most favor.

R. M. ROBERTSON on Thursday evening invited all his friends, and that included nearly every one in town, to come to his residence at Under den Linden Grove and nearly every one responded to the invita- tion. Everything conspired to make it a pleasant affair The evening was delight ful, the cool breeze gently moved the leaves in the beautiful grove and the brook murmured it's satisfaction as it gently glided by; the grove was made light as day with lanterns and the assistance of the moon. The Tucson Band made excel lent music, and when we left toward the break of day the grove presented a fairy scene, as the immense throng was keep Ing step to the music in quadrilleS, lanc- CTS, polkas, waltZes and reels. Such social gatherings are credit to the town and i omnch to keep up harmonious feeling ! ln the community.
