we saw at thc store of C. r. Head & Co. the incest bar that Arizona has ever produced from quartz gold, so far as We have any knowledge. This was the result of 93 tons and 500 pounds of rock from the Salvador, or Bullwhacker, lead, worked in the .tM- Ian mill, by Mr. Pie.z. There were 337. 2222 ounces of gold .9i5 fine in the bar, worth S6,37S. II coin, besides some S22 in silver. (. F. Head tS Co. bought the bar for some thing over S7,000 currency. Such results ought 10 encourage those owning gold lodes to renewed industry.

FIGHT EXrRAORDINARY.-J as the sun began 10 gild the summit of Thumb Butte with his golden rays, on "Wednesday morn ing, and ma jority of the peaceable inha bi- tantS of Prescott were wrapped ill quiet slum- Der, two irate individuals who had spent the night in bachanalian revelry, might have been seen with their seconds, bottle holders and referees vending their way out Of the Village limits, in order to settle d difficulty which had arisen between them over a game peace and dignity of the people, Constable Knott, who had during the long watches of the night kept his vigilant eye constantly upon the beligcrents, had gone to feed his official restraint, one had covenanted with the other to remunerate him in the sum of ten dollars, currency, for the privilege of working on his corporate frame for the space of q few minutes. Arriving at a sliita- ble spot near the new school-house, both men prepared for action, and before the off cer, who had got wind of their movements, could reach the battle-ground the fight was over. The party who paid the money won the fight, and his adversary has spent a large percentage of the amount in buying beef-steaks for his eyes. II was clear case of catching gudgeon:" but like the wood choppcrwho caught shorty Hayes, he need ed some one to help him Tel him go.

WIS. Clayborn arrived here, on Monday, from Baker City, Oregon. He informs us that he brought through l6 families, about so per sons in all, by way of Winnemucca, Austin, Smoky Valley, Muddy and St. Thomas to Stone's Ferry on the Colorado; and that they are now recruiting their stock near Bill Williams Mountain, preparatory to going to the upper Gila. On the route they came, he says, 2 miles is the longest stretch without water, and grass is good all the way. On wednesday afternoon he called upon us &a second time, and said some one had stolen mule from him, and that he had followed he track a mile and a-half when he came Fpon man with blue shirt, white hat, and
 ants in his boots, riding his mule; he fired, he man jumped off and ran into some rocks where he fell, and MT. c. thinks he killed nm. He broughtihe mule back to his camp and notified the Sheriff of what he had done. We have not heard of any one's being found oead, though we believe no one went to look, nor seemed to care if he had killed dozen horse-thieves.

To while away dull times in Tucson the people have been indulging series of light plays in the nature of comedy founded on the Arizona census report of 1876, and as playwrights usually do in such cases, the author chooses to base his comedy on the action of the Census Marshal of the county of which he knows the least, and of the number of whose inhabitants he cannot pos sibly know anything. As a literary produc- ton the string of whereases and resolutions is amusing and cannot have proceeded from the brain of the Chief Bellyacher of Pima, as there is q vein of humor running through them entirely foreign to his nature. The author seems to have gone back in imagina- ton to the year 1776, when the Prehistoric race that then occupied the land now known as Yavapai. had dwindled down to the num- Der of COOS, and were fast fading from the earth. Suddenly, and without the least preparation, or warning, he awakes from the dream of a century and brings his audience face to face with wide awake stern reality The effect is electrical and astounding, and the play closes with tableu in which the cabalistic figures s7,735" are seen quivering under a strong red light, and changing as the light fades to the ominous words ''Pi- mas doom"

LUSCIOUS PEACHEs.-Thomas Potter, of Salt River Valley, brought a wagon load of excellent peaches to Prescott, on Tuesday morning. and in an hour and a-half had sold them all at fifty cents pound, and might just as well have had dollar.

Morgan & Doughertv showed us this week two diamond rings'o of their own manufac- ture. One with Cross setting. containing six diamonds, is exqnisitely beautiful. The other, with a cluster of five diamonds in the shape of star, is equally pretty, but not quite so valuable. They were both made tO ordcr-one for S200, and the other Sl25. the gold being IS carats fine. Better judges of such things than we pretend to be, declare that no better work can be done in London, Paris, New York, or Berlin.
 We notice the arrival of A. D. Morrison of San Francisco, one of the Directors and Gene ral Superintendent of the Pinal c, X S. M. O.. From him WIG learn that it is the intcn- ton of the Company to immediately erect their smelling works at Walnut Grove-the place selected by Mir. <. NJ. WcSSels-and if nothing unforeseen interrupts, will have the works in running order in thirty days. The Company have purchased the CreScen; mine, which is a valuable argentiferous lead mine, carrying from 40 to 50 per cent lead, and $50 10 $500 in silver. The capacity of the pres ent works will be about 9 to 30 tons per day. IL is the intention of the Company to pur- chase some ten or more tons of silver ores per day from the Peck and Bradshaw mining dis tricts, to smelt with the Crescent ores. The production of bullion will be from to 10 tons per day. When in full operation, this Company will give employment to upwards of one hundred men, as well as large team ing force to transport the bullion. We trust that the people of Prescott will realize the importance of this enterprise to the Terri tory, and give the Company all the facilities possible.
