MINES AND MINING.
YAYAPAI COUNTY.


 HAssAYAMPA DIsTRICT.-S. 0. Frederick's ten-stamp mill is about ready for operation. He has, within ready reach of it, over 1000 tons of quartz that will pay him at least $50000. His mine looks as if it would hold out forever, so, his chances for. becoming a quartz king are decidedly good.
 The other quartz miners of the district see and feel that they are about out of the will derness.
 WALKER DISTRICT, l2 miles southwest from Prescott, has population of about l5O miners, all of whom are arrastraing, taking out ore, placer mining, &c.
 Bic BUG DISTRICT, which adjoins Walker on the east, has population of about 3O Messrs Hitchcock and others are running ar rastras by means of waterwhee!. We hear that their rock pays about $l0O per ton, in free gold.---P.acer miners are doing well there--GeoIge Hogle < Co. are at work on their Silver Cord lode. They will shortly have q furnace in full blast.
 WICKENBURG DIsTRICr.-Biil Smiths ten stamp mill is giving good account of itself. The ore-lrom the Vulture-is said 10 be very rich.
 TAe owners of the Vessuyius mine, in Walnut Grove district. are crushing S200 ore, in their arrastra an Kirkland Creek We are without news from Black Canon, Bradshaw and other districts near Prescott.
 MCHAvE COUNTY.
 The San Francisco Call of recent date, publishes the following, which is sell-explan- atory:
 The Greenwood Gold Mining Company incor- pOTatcd yesterday Ia mine iD Greenwood mining district, Mohave county, Arizona Territory. The directors Jas 4. Pritchard, Robert Stecn, <. !. [ Raymond, W. f. Hall and Joseph McGiilivry. 1 The capita! stock is *2,c01OO0 The Cedar Valley Gold Mining Company also incorporated, 10 mine in the same district, with the same capital stock and same directors.
 All who have seen the Gen. Crook mine express surprise because there is not a mill on it. The owners are, however, satisfied with their ''mills of the gods'-arastras, which have never yet failed to furnish them with all the money they have had use for.
 Owners of the Davis mine. which is one of the richest and largest silver mines in this or any other country, think that mill will soon be erected 10 work it. Well, one mil! would be pretty good, but it would take dozen small mills to make much of hole in the Davis.
 Several placer miners, from this district, came to town Saturday last, with buchskin bags of good placer gold. This district is not to exceed 12 miles from Prescott, in the pine mountains.
 Since penninS the foregoing, we have met and converscd with Mir. Fredericks. who in formed Us that on account of tie coldness of the n.9!its up in Lis atmosphere, he will not attempt 10 do any crushing until his engine, which Is now on the way here, from Ehrcn berg, is set up, when he will have steam to aid in warming up his quicksilver, etc.
 1AvAPAI DISTRICT, few miles south of Prescott, has just sent in 3 great deal of gold and silver bullion, which is destined fer San Francisco.

Upon d criticism of the recently submitted Annual Report of Indian Commissioner Smith, the New York World has expended, perhaps the proper word to use in this connec- ton should be ''wasted," an undue portion of the Attic salt fiavoring ordinarily the terse and epigrammatic editorials of that able paper Virtue may be its own reward, but virtue will, we fear, derive little consolation and but slender recompense from assailing bubbles of gas, as Smith and his reports are generally considered; not Il greater waste of strength was the Knight of La Mancha's attack upon the wind-mills or the wine-bags, while quite as great renown adorned the escutcheon of the owner of Rosinante as will beam upon the sanctum of the Metropolitan journal for this last feat of criticism; which, it is no disparagment 10 the ability of the World and no depreciation of its valuable services, to say, is Q misdirected effort.
 Why attempt to expose the inconsistency of report that simply represents the most glaring inconsistency in cur National admin istration? Why dilate upon the ludicrous features of a system intended from the be- ginning as grand travesty upon the gen erosity and common sense of our taxpayers
 Rather leave no effort untried for tue ex- tirpation of soulless ring, mantled in hy- pocrisy, fattening upon the millions appro- priated for Indian maintenance, and reiard- ing more than any other cause the expansion of civilizations domain on the Western border

From the Lcavenworth Daily Commercial of Dec. 3l, We learn the narrowing particu- lars of the massacre, by Cheyenne Indians, of a German family of cmigrantS, on their way from Georgia to Colorado. The story Is narrated by two of the survivors, little girls, rescued in gallant charge upon the camp of red tienl>, made by detachment of the 9th |. s. cavalry. These little wails, aged respectively eight and five years, found in the camp alter the fight of the noble @ Chcyennes, presented a pitiable sight, being almost nude and covered wi;h sores and scars from head to foot. They say their family when attacked consisted of nine per sons-the father was shot dead, the mother and cldes; son brained with an axe, little baby killed by being thrown agains. a tree, and one of the daughters, an invalid, put out of the way by knock on tie head. This left four, the little girls rescued and two other daughters of mature age, still captiycs with the Cehycnnes who have used them for the basest purposes.
 General Miles and General Pore have rec commended that Government cause these little girls 10 be educated with portion oI the Cheyenne fund, to which We aAd the suggestion that, the remainder of tie fund be used to buy powder and lead to kill of the last man of that miserable, cowarlly nation found outside the limits of the rcser- vation set apart for them hy proper au- thority.

COMING TO ARIZONA.

Last mail brought Us letters from people asking for information about Arizona; its climate, soil, etc. The writers state their determination to come to Arizona. We have, already, answered great many such letters and shall cndcayor to answer those now on hand as well as those to come, hoping thereby, to benefit our Territory and the s<SlA who are thinking of making it their nens.s. .s.siscthe printed slips, containing condensed Nfffrormation for ''for- eigners,n which we have compiled and printed at our own expense are willingly sent to all enquirers after knowledge of Ari- zona (postage paid by us;) not alone this, we send them copies of the MINER, at our expense, too, and shall continue to do so as long as we can stand it. But, there may be limit to our standing, in this respect, so we have an idea that next Legislature ought to authorize some competent person or persons to compile, print and distribute pamphlets containing all sorts of information for in- quirers after homes in Arizona. California has invested largely in such "works" and is now reaping her reward by additions to her population. The tide of immigration is not always going stop in that State. It is, at present, moving in this direction and its speedy arrival here ought to be encouraged. The thousands who are now Hooking to Pan amint will feel the air of Arizona, as it is waited across the California desert; this air will impel them on, on, until they reach our glorious Territory, when the era of pros perity, for which we pioneers have so long waited will disclose itself and turn our quiet Territory into one grand, surging field of enterprise.
 Our climate, soil, mineral and other re- sources are attractions that cannot be re- sisted and the fact that all the good routes for through lines of railroads from the At- lantic to the Pacific pass through Arizona, is sure to have great weight with the moving world.

The hog killing season has commenced in Salt River Valley. \ recent letter from q friend at East Phoenix tells Us that Helings < Co. were killing and that their hogs were turning out well. The firm Lad just pur- chased roo head of hogs from ''Crit" Bryan, which, with their own, will surely make q great deal of bacon, hams, lard, etc. The tin-shop of Brooks < Frederick, of Prescott, is engaged in manufacturing lard cans forthis firm Bacon and lard-artcles which used 'o command high prices when we mined and lived principally upon such things-are now quite cheap and liable to be cheaper, as the farmers of cur great valleys have but made start in the business.

Removian Stains.

If voc have been picking or handling
any acid fruit, and have stained your
hands, wash them in clear water, wipe
them lightly, and while they are yet
moist strike match and shut your hands
around it SO as to catch the smoke, and
the stains will disappear. If you have
stained your muslin or bingham dress,
or your white pants, with berries, before
wetting with anything else pour boiling
water through the stains and they will
disappear. Before fruitjuice dries it
can often be removed by cold water,
using sponge and towel if necessary
Rubbing the fingers with the inside OF
the parings of apples will remove most
of the stains caused by pairing.
For removing rust stains from fabrics,
moisten the spot with solution of
EPSON salts in few drops of hot water
and after few minutes rub it in well
Next fill a tin vessel with boiling water
and set it on the stained place for few
minutes, and afterward wash out in soft
water. If the spot be old, and not easily
removed the operation must be re-
peated. 1t is advisable to have articles
thus treated washed at once. Another
way: Wet the spots with lemon juice,
cover with common table salt, and apply
hot 1ron-Wileeaukee Mogazsne.

From the Grave.

A WRITER, sketching several cases
where people have been buried alive
relates the following: Excellent ma
terial for sensation story is furnished
by the following well-established facts
Victorine Lafourcade, young, beautiful
and accomplished, had great number
of admirers. Among them w4s jour
nalist named Jules Bossopq, whose
chances of being the successful sutton
seemed to be the best, when suddenly
Victorine, contrary to all expectation,
accepted the hand of a rich banker
named Renelle. Bossouet was incon-
solable, and his honest heart ached all
the more when he learned that the
marriage of his lady-love was unhappy.
Renelle neglected his wife inevery posi-
BILE way, and finally began to maltreat
her. This state of things lasted two
years, when Victorine died-at least, SO
it was thought. She was entombed in q
vault Of the cemetery Of her native town.
