Telegraph to Camp Lowell.

As stated last Saturday, the telegraph was completed to Camp lowell at that time. Just after THE CITIZEN went to press,we received this:
 CAMP LOWELL, March 6.-JOhn WaSSon, Esq: You have been receiving news from the east via west. am now able to com municate with you and give you eastern news. w. B. ROYALL.
 To which this reply was sent:
 TUCSON, March 6.-Col. W. B. ROyall, commanding Camp Lowell: Good news is welcome from any direction, and per lection of means for instant communion tiOn with Camp Lowell, is good news. AS our facilities for transaction of business by teiegraphS are enlarged, so are useful en- terprlSeS suggested and vitalized, and also electrified in their operations.
 JOHN WASSON.
 Thus are our advantages enlarged by gpvernment-which is not sufficiently ap- preciated. Now that our Territory is be- coming checkered with telegraph wires, the accommodations they afford are mere commonplace affairs; but a moments thought of our isolated and almost peril Ous condition two and one-half years ago, will cause most people to realize the ad- vances we are making in the possession of public and private advantages, and fairly encourages us to expect more rapid in- crease of Improvements in the future.

Fish & Co.'S store, and we are entire ly safe in saying that no better articles of hams and bacon were ever offered in any market. They have put the bacon up in a shape particularly convenient for min CTS, or any persons who have to camp out. and yet in entirely acceptable form. for household uses. Mir. w. B. Hellings has satisfied himself that the Salt river valley climate cannot be eXcelled for the curing of hams and hacOn-in fact he is of Opn- ion Ulat it is superior to any other, and he stands ready to guarantee that all that his firm makes will keep perfectly one year, and we really believe he is surely safe in the offer.

THE report last week that the Indians had left White mountain reservation, is substantially untrue. There was difficult ty in connection with some Apache pris- oners brought in by Col.

But the trouble among the Apa- ches is confined to a very few, including agent Roberts, and will not amount to anything serious,

IN obedience to the terms of the con tract entered into at the City ot Mexico by and between the President of the Re- pubic and D. B. Blair of the Guaymas and Arizona railway, the Federal Judge of Sonora has stopped all claims being made to public lands embraced within the scope of said contract. This indicates a belief in Sonora, that the Mexican Con- gress willneXt month approve the contract and thus perfect it.

SEVERAL members of the late grand jury have remarked to us that Briggs Goodrich, Esq, district attorney, has shown himself to he very industrious, conscientious and valuable officer. Twelve indictments were found, and upon ar raignment of the indicted parties, the court overruled all demurrers offered by counsel, thereby showing the indictments to have been correctly drawn. Consider ering this is the first experience Of MT. Goodrich in this line, it surely speaks wet for him, and we hope he may continue as successful as he has begun.

WE understand that our merchants have on hand an inc9nvCniently large amount of silver dollars Of Mexican coinage. We hear that some merchants have refused 10 take the coin in payment of debts in cer- tain cases.

Coin is the prop CT basis for currency, but it's cOmmOD and exclusive use always has been, is now, and ever will be practicable, and more because of its inconvenience than from lack of quantity.
