cotton picking, which is now being energetically;

DEATH OF COL. T. J HENLEY OF
 CALIFORNIA

Among our earliest recollections of any.
 thing pertaining to politics is one that, al.
 though so many eventful years have gone by
 on the wings of light and shadow since its
 occurrence, is still as fresh and vivid in mem. ory as If 1t had been an event of last year
 We allude to political debate that occur- red when we were little more than child with Colonel T. J. Henley and Robert Dale owen on the Democratic side, and R. w. Thompson-Black Dick-and George G. Dunn, champions of the Nhig cause. IL was considered contest between giants. for "there were giants in those days" and we venture to b, heve that it is still remembered by all the old residents of Bedford, Indiana. as "feast of reason" and, perhaps, often alluded to as model debate in the "earlier and better days"
 Col Henley was then in the vigor of early manhood, and, although not so scholarly as Owen, so brilliant as Thompson, or so pro- found as Dunn, his manners were more pop- ular than either. He made friends wherever he went, and as consequence was elected to Congress from Whig district.
 On the plains, Tn 1S49, it was our fortune to travel with Col. Henley, and We have been personal friends ever since. For some wears | past, time has been telling visibly upon him. his once erect form had begun to give way to the infirmities of ages and his hearing had partially deserted him, yet, less than a year ago, when we saw him last, his mind appear cd clear and memory almost perfect. One by one the "Arganauts of '49" are dropping away, until there are but few of the more prominent ones left.
 Col. T. J. Henley was born in Clark coun- ty, Indiana, in 1897, and died at his farm in Mendocino county, California, May 1, 1875. aged 6s years, after an illness of about six months, which terminated in softening of the brain. He leaves four sons, all we'll estab- shed in business, one of whom, Barclay. is prominent lawyer in Santa Rosa, Senoma county, California.

BRADSHAW DISTRICT.

5. A. Shut, practical expert, from th mines of Nevada and California, Dr. Hous ton of Kansas and Mir. P. Richardson, th, millwrght, and miner, made trip to Brad shaw last week and returned on Tuesday O this week.
 From Mir. Shut, whom we have inter viewed on the subject, We gather the follow. ing information relative to the excursion.
 They left Prescott May l2th, on horseback and rode that day to Chas Taylor's ranch where they were hospitably entertained for the night, and ill the morning started out to see the
 GRAY EAGLE MINE
 About 10 a. m., after hard climb. they reached Mir. Rchardson's house, where they partook of some refreshments and rested a short time to prepare themselves for the arduous duties of days prospecting.
 On the dump of the Gray Eagle they found large quantity of excellent pay ore. of which Mir. Shut made numerous tests with satisfactory results in every case. Mir. Richardson, he says, is working the mine in earnest and deserves to succeed.
 Their next move, with Mir Richardson as guide, was to examine the
 TIMBER BELT Near by, which they found abundant in all kinds of timber necessary for mining, mill ing, building and fuel. Continuing their re- searches they then visited the
 ECLIPSE AND COUGAR MINES. These contain the richest ores they have seen in the Territory, and if development shall prove them extensive they are cer- tainly very desirable properties. The night of the second day brought them to the
 WAR EAGLE MINE And the house of McKnnon & Goodwin where they were kindly received and gener- ously provided for.
 The War Eagle, Mr. Shut regards as a well-defined lead with an abundance of good looking ore in the mine and on the dunn. The m'ne IS in good shape and gives evidence 'f the skill of Messrs. NJ. 4 G. as practical miners.
 MT. :. horned out samples of all the mines 'isited by him and has the results with him which he will thoroughly test by fire assay order to satisfy himself of their real value. We have not pretended to classify the ores the different mines and specify the chem cal condition of each as he describes them, ut merely speak of them in general way we feel competent to do, and leave scier. fife description to those who understand if

ECONOMY is beautiful virtue with Gov ernments as we'll as individuals, and if tho War Department will apply the same rule to officials, contractors and ring thieves, who plunder the treasury by wholesale, that i. has adopted in our case, and cut down their services to less than half what they are actu- ally worth. we can soon afford to keen A standing army of ten millions of men, and not feel the burden. Why we should be singled out, however, to inaugurate the re- form in advance of any general movement in that direction Is not apparent to the naked eye.

The more it is de. veloped the more flattering the prospects ap, pear. Col. D. H. Fogus was there and would return to San Francisco to report on some of the mines he came to examine, after which it is his purpose to visit this and Bradshaw dis tricts.
 A note from Governor Stafford says the McCrackin bids fair to rival the Comstock and the Blackberry is but little, if any, infe- per e the McCrackis.

The Cat and the Fox.

One day fox met wildcat in the mids,
of wood. All how do you do, puss p
said the fox. am glad TO see you.
hope you are we'll"
You are kind, sir, said the cat. al am
quite well, and hope you are the same"
Yes, puss, am in good health, but own
that feel i'll at ease. | fear that you, my
friend, will not long be free from harm. ]
wish that could see my way clear TO help
you. But in these times"
Sir, what do you mean Z" said the poor
cat in great fright. "What great harm to
me do You dread 2"
"Well, as TO that" said the fox, :" il might
be harm TO me too. The plain truth u.s. there
is pack of hounds not far from this wood
Now have ten or twelve tricks-nay, may
count on at least score OF tricks by which
| can get out of the reach of the hounds
whilst you, poor puss-oh what can you do
that you may be out of their wayY What
tricks do you know ?"
al know no tricks at ALL" said the cat
81 have but one plan, and If that fails me, |
shall be lost"
Poor puss poor puss !" said the fox.
"One does not like TO see friend in such
a strait. | might teach you few of nv
tricks, but these are hard times, and one
must not trust too much. II is but right to
think of self-hark The hounds in full
cry You are a lost cat | have no time 10
spare TO tell you what to dol must be of
at once"
These words were scarcely out of his
mouth when he and the cat saw the hounds
The cat at once ran up tree-that was her
one plan.
The fox could not climb n trea aud ba
