 JOHN T. SMITH was in town this week from the BOsque ranch. He reports crops good, and every thing quiet on the upper Santa Cruz.
 THE Telegraph line has been out of order this week. We received dispatches from Prescott and that is all we have been able 10 obtain.

 ROSCOE L. BRYANT has taken the shop of Fred Bland in Tucson, and is ready to do painting, glazing, etc, to order and in the best manner. Those in want of such services should call on him.

Fish & Co. received very large lot of goods. SAMUEL HUGHES started out to the Sier- rita mines on Thursday with provisions, etc. These mines are prospecting remark ably well, and will in time richly reward the owners for their outlay.
 Two pair blankets made at the woolen mills in San Francisco for agent JeffOrdS and Cachise, were brought here by the bell train. We are not aware who the donor is. The blankets weigh twenty pounds to the pair.

 A. HAZARD returned this week from Pueblo Niejo and reports the MOntezuma ditch company at work widening their ditch, also that good many were coming in there to settle from New Mexico, and that large crop will be planted this year. IT is a treat to take walk and look in and through Levin'S garden and other inn provementS abOut the Park Brewery. The grounds are taStefully laid out and plant ed with shrubbery, and there is a very fine dancing and concert pavilion at the en- trance.
 TIE weather this week has been quite warm which gives evidence that Summer is fast approaching. The top of the old Santa Rita mountain is still white with snow, and presents 9 striking contrast with the valley, but few miles below clothed in perpetual green.
 THE building at Camp Lowell has nee
  The SZ5,G00 appropriation heretofore set apart to aid in building the post was with drawn by order of the Secretary Of War Most of the soldiers at the post are scout ing after ApacheS, but Gen. Carr : using the few he has to the best advantage fin iShing up the buildings already partially completed.
 EVERY one appears to be busy in Tucson, and the merchants have no complaints to make. Vast quantities of goods are con- San Francisco, and are soon disposed of. With the rapid increase of stock Tn south ern Arizona, and the development of the mines, Tucson must continue to grow in prosperity.
 GEN. CROOK has returned to Prescott. It was his intention to come by Tucson, but a pressure of business compelled him to take the shortest road home. With the diSaffection of the HualpaiS and San Car los Apaches, the General has had his hands full, but he has gone to work with his usual energy, and it is hoped that the trouble will be ended without much fur ther serious results.
