From The Miner of August 27:
 On the 22d of this month Andrew Curtin discovered a lode of silver bearing ore within half mile of the Peck mine. A chunk weighing fifty pounds was submitted to Wm. Cole and E. $. Junior, who pronounced 1t worth $5 per pound. MT. Jewell made three careful assays of the diff ferent ores with the following results, beginning with the lowest grade: No. l went $4O6.21; No. 2, $422.34 4; No. 3, $2,959.2O.
 The grist mill, in the Canyon below Nathan Bowers ranch, Is being fixed up and will soon be grinding corn. This is water-power mill with all the appliances for making first-class flour, but the grain Is not in the coun- ty to grind, consequently it will be confined to corn.
 Johnson & Co.'S mill started up on Crook ore on Monday morning and has been running steadily and very satisfactorily all week, crushing about seven tons and half per day with five stamps.
 Ed. w. Wells and T. J. Butler have been appointed examiners, and, to- gether with the county superintendent, now form the board of school ex- aminers ill and for Yavapai county.
 Reindeer is the name of newly discovered ledge, seven miles from the Peck ill the Bradshaw range by J. $. Nelson and Charley Rice. The vein Is from six to eight feet wide with a 3-inch pay streak on the surface.
 Gen. Kautz has gone again into the Bradshaw range, to rusticate and take another look at the mines in that region.
 A fearful hail storm visited Clough's ranch, at Point of Rocks, again the other day, as if to finish up the work of desolation, in whatever may have been left ill the way of vegetation on the place.
 The Miner gives detailed accounts of many new buildings in Prescott.
