ANOTHER RICH DISCOVERY Frank Shultz has discovered rock that assays from Sl2,0O0 to sl5,00O to the ton, in silver, short distance from the Peck mine, say halt mile South and q mile East. "Eveniug Star" is the name chosen for this new discovery. We shall probably hear nore about it in time for our next. Parties who have visited that section say the parallel lodges at regular intervals resemble the trails in buff falo country when viewed from distance. The whole country is full of quartz, and much of it is believed to be rich. Capitalists who are spend ing millions prospecting in barren countries and teglecting Yavapai arc simply giving them selves away"

SKELETON FoUSD.--Sam Wier informs us that W. C. Collier lately found human skeleton in an old brush shanty not far from Bradshaw There were TO evidences tending to fix the iden- tity of the person whose remains must have lain there for several years from appearances. The probabilities are that it was lone prospector killed by Indians, inasmuch as there was not a vestage of any kind of clothing to be found about the place, in fact, nothing but the bones, which would indicate that the body had been stripped by Indians.

FALSE 'ALARM-THR ALARMIsT IN JAL-On Tuesday morning last man giving his name Charles Bradshaw, but who has sometimes gone by the name Of David Hume, and at other times known Buck, came calloping up to Headquar- ters at Fort Whippie, and afterwards into town, and told a story about the Indians having broken out between Stonemans Lake and Tonto Basin, and killed Samuel Miller, John Rusher and Mir Carpenter, of this place. The man was per fecty sober, told so straight story and seem- ed so candid about it. that people began to think 1t must be so, notwithstanding the silence of the telegraph. He even went so far as to say that he had seen the scalps of these men at Camp Verde, which the soldiers had recovered from the In. dians after killing 30 of them. We questioned him as 10 description of the scalps, and he said they were but recently taken as they had not dried particle, etc. Of course the families of these men were frightened nearly to death, and Ihe utmost consternation prevailed until some parties went to the Post and telegrapbed to Al Seiber at Verde, and ascertained that i. all a bumbug. This bit of news was satisfactory that everybody was in good humor and inclined to let the fellow enjoy his sensation, until he be- gan to make himself offensive by ayowing that he did not care who was dead, that he had received S50 for bringing tue news from Verde, and that was good enough for him. Charley Beach, who was not in the best of temper, told him that he had not received a cent for bringing the report, tbat le had made it up, and that he was liar. This seemed to exasperate him and he rushed of, armed himself and threatened to kill any man that would dispute his word. The Sheriff took him in hand, and on being brought before Justice Cartier, that officer decided that he might take bis choice between paying sl0O and costs, or abiding 90 days in Yavapai county jail. Not be- ing able to produce the cash Ee still languishes. It may hare been fun while it lasted, and now he will have time to concoct some other scheme by which to divert himself. The horse, saddle and brldle with which he came to town are advertised for sale by the Sheriff to apply on the costs.

RICH SPECIMENs.-Ed. Peck has placed us un- der obligations for half dozen beautiful speci- mens from tbe Peck mine. The character of the ore has already been pretty thoroughly described in these columns, and it is useless 10 add any thing by way of assuring the public of its rich ness. Everybody is satisfied on that point. The question still is, how much is there of it? So far as they have gone down on it, only four or five feet, there is no indication of weakening, and all agree that the well-defned iedges and walls indicate permanence. We hope, if it is not the backbone of the world, that it is at least one of tue main ribs. They have out seven or eight tons and are sacking it for shipment.
