 Ye candidates are blowing their trum- pets furiously in these parts. Last week during the session of court, politics usurp- ed the functions of law; the court sue cumb bed on the third day and took skiff for Yuma. No business Of importance transacted. Joseph P. Hargrave, John A. Rush and MT. McDaniels of the Prescott bar, were in attendance.
 A new find" near mineral Park has made some local excitement. Thomas J. Christie is the original locator. lam in- formed that he can sack Sl000 worth of ore per week, and that he has already in sacks several thousand dollars worth.
 The KrOm COncentratOr at the Park is running very satisfactorily. The furnace at Cerbat has run out 105 bars of bullion, averaging about S5 pounds to the bar, and worth about S200 per ton. Buel'S mill at Wallapai mountain is now in full opera tion, and every available team is employ ed hauling ore to 1t. We expect good but not grand results from this little mill.
 c. P. Head was here last week. So far as I can learn, he visited no promising mine except one found few weeks ago by Jackson McCracken. He pronounced it a big thing, but says there is not ore enough taken out in this county to load squaw. Now considering that he never saw the Arnold, the Hope, Grant and McGeary, Hibernia, "63," Keystone, Lone Star, Elm pire, and a dozen more mines which have been worked, 1consider his opinion hasty and unwarranted. Like many others who go To inspect mines, he goes away with the same opinion he came with, and with out Investigating. We all hope he will come again and VISIT THE MINES.
 A heavy rain fell here on the 17th and 18th. It was accompanied with the sharp est lightning and heaviest thunder that can be struck off by the latest improved power press of the upper regions.
 I almost forgot to mention that Richard 6ird has lately been testing an improved wet concentrating process. It is Of his own invention, and on small scale is a con- plete success. No doubt he will furnish you with a description as soon as he has taken proper steps for securing a patent.
 Judge S. w. Wood of Mineral Park, in a letter of October 12, to Gov Stafford says:
 Mining matters are very encouraging. some very fine ore. The day you left MT. Christee discovered ledge about mile north of here, which promises to be the biggest thing'' in the country. In five days, he has taken out and sacked about two tons of ore that assays from S7O0 to SlO,OOO per ton. It resembles the ore from the Eberhardt of White Pine, but the country rock is granite and it has every appearance of being regular vein.
 The KrOm COncentrator is doing well, I, anu GIlS peOplc are UeBlnulllS IO lcGI COIL fident that it is just what we want. The furnace at Cerbat has been running three days on its concentrations and at last ac- counts the bullion was still running and no symptoms of freezing"
 Mir. Gross of the Ridenour party, return ed yesterday from the Diamond creek country. He reports finding gold in many places, but too "thin y to pay. They found valley of about F 900 acres covered with red top and blue grass, and well watered Bordering on this is forest of yellow pine and white oak about ten by fifteen miles in extent. This paradise is situated about sixty miles due north of Fort Rock on the Prescott road. They found an abundance of game, such as deer, bear, antelope and wild turkey, and no Indians but plenty of fresh sign.''
