DISTRICT CoURT.-The Third Judicial District Court, for this county, met to-day at 10 o'clock a m.-Judge DeForest Porter presiding.
 The calendar of the United States and Ter ritorial cases were called.
 Peter B. Brannen was admitted to become a citizen of the United States.
 The parties litigant not being prepared to proceed with their cases, court adjourned till tomorrow morning at 10 a. m.
 Mir Jas E. McCaffry, U. S. District Attor- ney, made Prescott this forenoon, after a rapid drive from Tucson. Mac came via the new road from Phoenix. MT Miller, who came with him from New river, says there is vet considerable water in New river and the Agua Fria.
 Having recently visited Chino valley, in company with Miss Sarah Osborn, her broth CT Neri and last but not least, our better half, we are prepared to prove that the road to Chino is better than that to Big Bug, and that Chino has more and better attractions than any other locality in this section of Ari- zona that is when Chino's Attractions are at home While visiting at the house of NIT and Mrs Geo Banghart, we had the pleasure of meeting MT Douglass and his daughter, Miss Addie, of Williamson valley, who, like ourself, were paying respects to friends.
 At another time. we will say something of crops, stock, etc of Chino.

FROM kANsAs.-Mr Waterman and three other gentlemen arrived here yesterday, di- rect from Kansas. They brought two teams. Mir w., who has been here before, and has two sons engaged in mining on Lynx creek, appeared pleased at reaching Prescott From him we learned the following facts : The road over the mountains was very mud dy, owing to the melting of snow,-Indians were met with in the mountains east of Camp Verde, and, we believe, tried to shoot some of the party. Of this fact, the militia " are informed and will very soon 'corral' said Indians. One man, with his family, is coming in, escorted by soldiers sent out by Capt Coppinger. The man and his family ran short of provisions, hence this just act of Capt Coppinger.
 RECENT ARRIvALs.-Hon J. T. Alsap, probate judge of our sister county of | Maricopa, and one of the most useful citi- zens of said county, arrived by Grants stage | this morning, to attend to some cases before the U. $. and Territorial district courts Judge Alsap having resided here for many years has met with hearty welcome from his old froiends.
 While on the Little Colorado river, Col C. P. Head purchased 2,0O0 head of beef cat tie, which will soon be driver to his stock ranch, 30 miles east of Prescott, where ht has now about 1000 head of cattle and ; great many sheep.
 Wm B. Hellings and A. Barnett, leading business men of Phoenix, Maricopa county reached Prescott yesterday evening, from Phoenix and Camp Verde.
 Bishop Whitaker and MT c. w. Beacl are expected in town this evening.
 MT NJ. Goldwater, contractor for supplyinl government at Fort Yuma and Yuma depo with hay, has received the contract paper from Col Chandler, chief quartermastor o the department
Arizona weekly miner., 1874-06-05

To defray the actual necessary expenses of witnesses who recently appeared in court, at Phoenix, in the case of the Territory of Ari zona vs. w. B. Hellings, Associate Justice Tweed had orders, (attached to which was the seal of the courD drawn upon the treasurer of this (Yavapai) county, commanding him to pay said orders out of the county general fund. The treasurer of this county being present as witness, suggested to the Judge that, in his opinion, the better and fairer way would be to draw the orders on the board of supervisors, but His Honor did not coincide with this idea and immediately read from the law, which, according to his inter pretation, gave him undsputed right to order that said orders take precedence of all other demands on the county general fund, and lit was so ordered.n The clause from which the Judge derives this power will be found on page l54, and Is as follows:
 Sec. 525. When person shall attend before a magistrate, grand jury, or court, as witness on behalf of the Territory, upon q subpoena or by virtue of recognizance, and it shall appear that he has come from any place out of the county, or that he is poor the court if the attendance of the witness be upon trial, by an order upon its min utes, in any other case, the district judge, by an order subscribed by him may direct the treas urer of the county to pay the witness reason able sum, to be specified in the order, for his ex- penseS.
 We now learn that some of the supervi- sors of this county are of the opinion that the county treasury upon which the Judge should have drawn is Maricopa, the authori- ties of which should have sent in "the bil'' to our board of supervisors. Others, again, say that the law governing boards of supervisors, one clause of W hich reads as fol- lows: '2d. To examine, settle, and allow all accounts, legally chargeable against the coun- ty, and to levy, for the purpose prescribed by law, such amount of taxes on the assessed value of real and personal property in the county as may be authorized by law, ,"vir- tually repeals the statute upon which the court bases its action. So the matter stands, at present. Meantime, the treasurer has paid two of said orders, but will pay no more of them until such time as the board of supervisors order him to do so.
 Should they order him not to pay the or ders, Judge Tweed will then issue man. damus; and the question at issue will sooner or later be settled.
 It is trying to mems souls to have to dc the square thing, according to such conflict. ing flaws" as find places in that fearful and wonderful book, The Howell Code.
 Messrs Compton and Sine, of Fort Whip pie have been to Bradshaw, looking at some mines in which they are interested.

From Mondav'sDa

John Evans from the lower Agua Fria in forms us that the crops down there are splen- did. Barley Is ready for cutting, wheat is almost ripe and corn Is about one foot in night. All this on the farms of MT Vickers and Mrs Townsend.
 Messrs Thomas Sheridan, Stephen Breon, c. Hopkins and other citizens of Williamson valley are in town, all appearing well pleased with their prospects for raising a great deal of grain, hay and marketable articles.
 No MAIL--At this writing, half past D. m., the mail wagon which was due here ear ly this morning, has not arrived Rumor has it that the delay is caused by high water in the Colorado river
 In sending after telegraphic news, this forenoon, we prompted the messenger con cerning the necessity of getting some def nite news about the cause of delay, and the truth of report that ferry-boat had cap sized in the Colorado, but not a word did we receive from Wickenburg, the nearest telegraph station.
 Mir Smith, of Lynx creek, left for his homo this forenoon, with wagon-load of stor, goods, which goes to show that he has, al least made water count.
 The treasurer of the village of Prescott ha funds for the redemption of certain village warrants. See his notice to this effect
 Miss Hitchcock, who has been visiting MT Gen Crook, returned to her home at Big BuI to-day, accompanied by General Crook.
 There is money in the county treasury fo the redemption of warrants and orders c court, as per notice in advertising columns.

Washingtonians do not take kindly to Gen Sherman, since he preached the idea of making St. Louis headquarters of the Army. Nevertheless, the idea is good one. St Louis is near the center of the country, con- venent to the troops who have work to per form, and we hope the General will be per mitted to remove We go farther, and say that St. Louis ought to be the capital of the entire country.

CROP PROSPECTS. We regret to hear that
the corn crop in the adj AGENT country Is iikely
to suffer damage from the ravagcs of the bud
worm. From several neighborhoods, aud
through the best farmers comes the report
that the crop will be greatly reduced by the ra-
wages of this uuwecomc intruder. The worms
are said to be found on every description OF
land; sometimes poor and somct mes rich land
is spared from invasion. But the general lm-
preston is that the wetness OF the early season
produced the plauge We know otno proved
remedy but an old farmer says that. where the
work of destruction has not reached too far Into
the stalk, handful of dry crumhled EARTH or
a teaspoonful OF lime will destroy the bug, and
save the plant.
