A. T. HAYsBRoUGH has written us letter from Florence, dated Oct sth. in which he ayers that the doors of justice are closed against him; that there is no avenue open through which to vindcate himself except the columns of the MINER, and yet we fear to publish all he has written of county and precint officers, lest we get into a worse scrape than he is. We might stand off the "Mex- ican affidavit man," whom he says the officers hired to swear his horse away from him, but when it comes to accusing sheriffs, justices of the peace and all the town officers, whom the people have elected, with being in with a band of bummers and robbers who lie in wait to catch strangers and take their prop crty away from them, it is precarious busi- ness, and we shall not do it even to accom- modate the poor miner he represents him. self to be, notwithstanding our sympathies arc always with the oppressed.

MUTILATED CURRENCY. - Some of our merchants, and perhaps all, have adopted the plan of sending away all the torn and worn out bills to be exchanged for new ones. This is good move and ought to be more gcner- ally practiced. The impression has been that it was necessary to send them to Wash ington City for exchange, which is not the case. The Assistant Treasurer at San Fran cisco attends to such matters, and it can be done through him in much shorter time than by sending to Washington. This ragged cur rency business is quite a nuisance here, and If business men will, with one accord, gather up and send off all the worn bills they can get hold of and exchange them for new ones, which they can easily do with no loss except the use of the money while in tran- sit, it will be great accommodation both to their patrons and to themselves giving us circulating medium here that is not so rag ged as to be of doubtful value.
 Those doing business through San Fran cisco houses can easily, as some do, make their remittances in mutilated bills which their agents can easily get exchanged at the sub-treasury fer good ones. Let all the rag ged bills be sent away and new ones substi tuted.

TIE artesian we'll business is one that is at- tracting the attention of people all over the coast, and should be particularly interesting to the people of Arizona, since whoever gets the first flow of water will receive enough money from the public treasury to very near ly pay for it, besides owning it when it is made. Several persons in Prescott have sig nife1 willingness to subscribe $500 each provided the sum of sl0,000 can be raised as a working capital to sink such we'll in the centre of the plaza. It would be useless rerbage in us to set forth the advantages of such well, provided it should be success, everyone can see it without being told, and the cost to each would be so trifling that in case of failure it would not be severely felt gi.

PIMA ITEMS.

From the Tucson Citizen of October | 2d:
 MT. Levin has some fifteen eucalyptus trees as the result of this years experiment i He now believes he has mastered all difficult ties in growing them, and that next year he will successfully raise enough to supply this town and surrounding country. He has now over two hundred pepper trees of thrifty growth and will increase the number. He | intends to make the village council propo- sition to set double row of pepper trees around the courthouse plaza and guarantee their growth for stated period under his own cultivation.
 MT. Ochoa, who arrived lately from the Rio Grande valley, reports great foods over that way. He was in Las Cruces when that town was so badly damaged by water spout. He says the last he heard of the 5000 sheep purchased for account of Fully. Ochoa & Co.,, and for the Indians at San Carlos, they were at Rio Mimbres and he thought the river was so high as to delay their crossing.
 Several wagons with immigrants came into Tucson this week, and moro or less come and move out into the country every week. This section is filling up quite rapidly.
 Paymaster Col David Taylor and clerk re- turned early this week from a round of pay. ing troops at Bowie, Grant, San Carlos and Apache, which they made in twenty days
 This number ends the fifth year of the Arizona Citizen, and it has each year gained in strength and power

ANOTHER EVIDENCE OF THE CONSPIRACY
 It the public is not already surfeited with
 the evidences of a damnable conspiracy
 against our institutions, having its origin
 and seat in Rome, and that the Chief Jus
 tice of Arizona is not its originator or prin- cipal advocate, they win read the following utterances of foul-mouthed priest in Yuma, in this Territory, on the 26th of last month, and be convinced that there is a movement "all along the line," and that a Jesuitical Priesthood and such satellites as they can en- list in their unholy crusade against the pub lie schools of America, are, in obedience to orders issued directly from the Vatican. marching in solid column and bigoted, blind determination against the children of the United States. with the single purpose of making them slaves to their peculiar dogmas and keeping them in ignorance, the more easily to bend tbem to their own uses. On the day mentioned. the Rev. Father J. NJ. Chancctt, according to . report of his re- marks published in the Sentinel of Oct. 9th. used the following language in the church at Yuma: "The public school system origina- " ted with impure women. A mother who sends her daughter to the pub " schooas is no better than prostitute, and " the giris in these schools are educated for |" prostitutes" Can any friend of the race read this language and longer doubt the psr- poses of its author?

THE change of route between here and Hardyville, leaves Beale Springs out of the schedule. the postoffice having been discon- tinued there, and now goes from Frees Wash direct to Mineral Park, cutting of sev- eral miles travel. Were it not for the con- tract requiring the mail to be carried to Ger bat we are told still further saving would be made by going direct from the Park to Hardyville. Travellers having no business at the county seat can avail themselves of this advantage

THE Santa Barbara Press, of Sept. 10th notices the sale of thirteen tons of Peck ore, and says, "we learn, from the MINER, that it was sold to Ellis Bros. for Sl3.OOO." and remarks that by careful assay it is ascer. that they will double their money. etc.. This is all right enough except that it was sold to J. Rosenthal, and shipped to Asher d G., San Francisco, of which firm Mir. Ellis is member, and manager of the Arizona branch. The MINER said nothing about Ellis Bros, in connection with the transac ton.

Coop IDEA.-It is proposed in San Fran cisco to do away with "Collection Dsy., which now occurs there twice a month. and substitute instead thereof the Eastern prac- tice Of selling on thirty and sixty days cred 1t, and the seller taking note from the buy CT instead of keeping book account. It is argued that the proposed plan will not on- only prevent the hoarding of coin to meet the ex'gencies of "Col!ection Day." but that It will greatly facilitate business transactions by throwing negotiable paper upon the mar ket instead of unnegotiable bills.

A CURIOUS RELIC.-The San Bernardino
 Times thus describes recent "findn in that i vicinity:
 A teamster on the railroad, while bathing
 Tn Whitewater, some thirty miles east of San Bernardino, observed dark, circular object in the stream, which on being brought
 to the surface, proved to be a truly marvel | ous piece of workmanship. The article in
 question is composed of certain peculiar
 slatc-colored stone, similar to that usually
 employed by the Indians of British Columbia
 for the manufacture of pipes, and it is hot
 found anywhere in this State. In form it is
 circular, being somewhat shaped like large
 dlnner-plate; the bottom for about six inches
 Tn diameter is perfectly smooth. and has a
 circular orifice in ;he center about half an
 inch Tn diameter. Toward the rim it pre-
 sents singular convex appearance this rim on the outer surface Is surrounded with a
 wreath of grapevines, so faultlessly engraved that even the most minute fibers of the leaves are clearly outlined. On the upper surface of the rim is a peculiar border, composed first of two parallel lines extending around the entire rim, with an interval of about two inches between the lines, in the center of these lines running at right angles, at regular intervals, are smaller lines convergne from the inner line in the form of quarter circles. meeting in the center, where they pass through ovals, ending on the outer line Tn the center of crescent facing out ward; while traversing the whole is waving line extending around the center of the outer lines. The centre of this curious work, however, is tho most astonishing DOT ton. On it appears marvelously beautiful and faultlessly executed wreath of flowers. leaves, vines and scroll-work, every bud leaf and flower being perfectly natural and life like to the minutest details. The whole is polished in the highest manner, and is as smooth as glass. The entire workmans hip. in beauty of design and delicacy of finish ex- cels the choicest productions of modern ar- lists, and shows that the people by whom it was executed had reached an advanced stage of civilization. 1t is almost with feeling of | reverence that we gaze upon this relic of a | past race, of whom no history has yet been found other than the ruins scattered on the | plains, whose origin and history is enveloped in impenetrable obscurity, which probably never will be penetrated. The plate is in . remarkable state of preservation, owing no 1oubt to the indestructible quality of the 'tone of which it is composed.

FROM CAMP FINAL

OLD CAMP FINAL, Oct. :, 1875.
 EDITOR MINER Our party of four start
 out from Prescott due east; the objective point being Pinal creek We wished to pros- pect some extensive croppings near the east fork of that creek. Upon our arrival we found the croppings to be on the San Carlos reservation and an order out warning of prospectors. The copper lodes were simply immense and to all appearances very rich. l understand that party had, previous to the order, located some very rich silver lodes. Among this party were MT. Ranboz, Mir. Hope and MT. Reed, the assayer at Silver City, N NJ.
 visited the Silver King, 9 miles across the Pinal mountains from Pinal creek. This mine is bonanza, cropping above the sur rounding surface about 100 !eet, and about 100 feet square at the top, with an unknown depth, as the owners have sunk only about 45 feet. The lode matter is permeated in all directions with veins and streaks of silver ore of all grades fir m high to low. The for nation seems to puzzle the mining experts, yet it is on well defined mineral belt.
 l met many of our Prescott prospectors in the Pinal mountains; most of them were go- ing back to prospect in the Bradshaw moun- tains which they consider the richest district in the Territory. These are some of the Prescott prospectors that have met here: P. Reed, F. Phelps, W. Randall, W. Kent, R. Kent. J. McHenry, R. Ralston, D. Gray, W. c. Moore, J. Saunders, J. Harvey, Joe Puget, W. Gillespie, B. Finkler, J. Malcom, c. Bryson and many whose names have slip ped my memory at present. Some of the boys have made locations, but most of them return home to locations which they think are better than anything they have found here.
 As matter of interest to stock men, would state that on my route from Prescott to the east fork of the Verde found many fine ranges, especially for sheep. In all that distance saw only one flock of sheep, but their condition would excite the envy of any sheep owner in the country. Fine, level bottoms on the creeks of from 20 to 100 acres and thousands of acres of the finest of grasses on the hills around. Many of these were delightful camping places pure water from the mountains, beds of wild flowers. many of them rare and beautiful, groves of | oak and sycamore for shade, and deer ante lope and wild turkeys in abundance. In i these beautiful places, with all their magnifi- cent and charming surroundings, one wishes that 1t were possible to throw off the cares and anxieties incident to society and camp forever Fl. c.
