THE weather is still quite warm in Yuma, though the last few nights have been delightfully."- cool and pleasant for sleeping. A few weeks will let us out of the heated term. The dreaded hot weather only lasts four months at most, to- wit: June, July, August and September. Then we have eight months of the most delight ful and exhilerating weather that can be imagined. No person can understand or appreciate it with out experiencing it. Having eight months of Heaven to com pensate for four months of Pur- gatory, is tolerably satisfactory, and much better than we think some fellows about here will get hereafter,

ANDY TYNER has greatly inn proved the appearance ot. the Main street front of his saloon by having very handsome blinds at- tached to the doors. These blinds do not prevent the free Circula- ton of the air, but do obstruct the vision of inquisitive prying quid- nuncs, who would like to know who is in there, without entering themselves. These blinds are back action, forward action, per cussion. revolving, automaton and self-adjusting. They were made by some ingenious cuss in San Diego, and are ornamental as well as useful, to any house.

WE are in receipt of a letter from T. D. Lockwood, one of our most reliable and energetic mi ners, dated Picacho mine, Aug. 11th, in which he states that he had found one of the richest sil- yer lOdeS that he had ever seen. The location is on the top of the Picacho Mountain, about % miles north of Yuma, in San Diego O., ', Cal. He says the native silver is sticking out in the rock, and that there is rock enough in sight to load every steamer and barge on the Colorado. Mir. Lockwood also says that the PicachO mine is get ting along as we'll as the hot weather will permit, and that they are getting out as good rock as any one would wish to see. He says he thinks they will have it in good working order by the time the weather is cool enough to work and, that it will pay well. MT. Lockwood's opinion is entitled to a great deal of respect and at- tention, as he is known and re. garded as one of the most thorough and reliable miners in this district.

Silver-Paved Street.
Virginia (Ney.) Enterprise

Virginia (Ney. Enterprise.
 Our principal streets being ma- cadamiZed with refuse ore taken from the mines in early days and being coated with the rich ore that has been year after year sifted down upon them from the ore wa gons, are now everywhere more or less argentiferous. Indeed, there is not the sligh test stretch of the imagination in saying that we never take a step in the town but we are walking on silver-that our streets are literally paved with silver. While speaking of this fact a day or two since, a young man bet his friend the price of the as. saying and the cigars" that he would take lump of mud off of the wheel Ofa 'bus, then standing before them, and would get out of it precious metals to the value of over five dollars per ton. An ounce or two of mud was taken from the wheel of the vehicle and placed in the hands of an assayer, who was not told where the sam pie was obtained, and who no doubt supposed that he was deal ing with decomposed ore or vein matter from one of our mines. The assay was made, and the as- sayer's certificate showed that the sample contained: "Silyer, $7.54; gold, S232; total, S9.86. After this we may put on airs, even through our street are villainously muddy occasionally, for the very mud on our boots contains both silver and gold-it is not the vulgar mud of the "cOw county" towns.

Wheat Crop In Kansas.

The following, from the advance sheets
Of the report Of the Kansas State Board
of Agriculture for 1874, shows the total
area of winter Wheat, and increase, com.
pared with the crop harvested IN 1874:
Total acreage. 'V S5
Total increase, acreage....'....''.''.
The actual increase Of winter Wheat
in the State is 1922. Per cent Of in
crease 10.
The prospects for an excellent crop, OF
winter Wheat never were better IN this
State at this season of the year than at
the close of this report. Fall pasture has
been nutritious and abundant. Domes-
tic animals are free from any prevailing
disease, and 20 into winter in good
condition. Ample hay has been
secured, very small per cont OF which
has been destroyed by prairie fires, COM
pared with previous years. In most
counties where the corn crop has been
destroyed, Spring Wheat can be pur-
chased at 400 65c per bushel. Counties
reporting decrease in area OF Winter
Wheat, are Allen, Anderson, Bourbon,
Cotiey, Crawford, Franklin, Linn, Miami
and Woodson-all in ono body in the
Southeasterly part Of the State, where the
chinch bugs did the most damage to
small grains last spring. Total acreage
of Winter Wheat reported is 5l2,O92.
An ordinary yield another year, say lG
bushels per acre, would give S,l9S4 4O
bushels. Assuming that the yield of
Spring Wheat will equal that of the pres
emit year, 3,020,777 bushels, we have an
estimate of ll,2O4,2l7 bushels as the
Wheat harvest of the 1875, for the State.
At this time, January 8, live stock, es-
pecialy work animals, are in poor condi-
ton; cause want of corn.

THE State tobacco warehouses which
were DESTROYED by fire on Thursday
nirht contained on storage cOnsidera-
bic quantity of tobacco belonging to pro-
ducers. in addition to the stock stored in
them by tobacco dealers. In many in
stances the stock owned by producers
constituted the main portion of their re-
lance for subsistence, and the loss will
probably occasion much pecuniary dis
trcss to them. The disaster has caused
the question to be mooted whether the
state of MARYLAND is recuniarily respon-
sible TO owners Of the destroyed tobacco
1t is contended by some that the
policy of establishing the tobacco
warehouse does not show the State to be
in any sense n fiduciary IN assuming the
storage. inspection and outage of tobacco;
that The warehouses are necessary in
cident of the laws requiring tobacco to be
inspected: that the inspection has been
deemed protection and advantage TO
the producer as well as the buyer, and
that the State has not instituted the in
snection as a source Of revenue, the e1.
rcnscs attending it having been averagely
Greater than the receipts for storage,
outage, sc. 1t is held, therefore, that the
State never intended to assume any re-
,ponsibility for tobacco while stored fer
Inspection. or awaiting the owners option
to sell.
The laws of Maryland in relation to
the warehousing and inspection OF tobac-
co do not expressly or indirectly indicate
any responsibility for safe keeping or
against destruction by fire or otherwise,
and parallel instance of lack of fduci-
airy responsibility is adduced in the case
Of imported goods stored in United States
customs Storehouses to await inspection
and valuation by customs officers, and
which are frequently stored in bond for
long periods, awaiting the demands of
trade or necessities OF owners before they
ore Withdrawn for sale. The United
states government is no wise responsible
for loss or damage to such goods.
Similarly, in the case of the tobacco
DESTROYED Thursday night, it is commended
that the State of MARYLAND held in ths
burned warehouses tobacco which could
