The Special Election.

The election to decide upon the con tinued incorporation or disincOrporation Of Tucson, took place last Monday, and resulted in a victory for incorporation the vote standing l4O to 49. There was but little subsequent exultation manifested for while it Is a result over which we all rejoice, it is very evident that large DOT ton of those who earlier favored dlsincor- poratlon, permitted their second and bet ter thoughts to withdraw them from a measure that wouldn't be satisfactory to themselves, in the end, if successful. And 1t was felt that those who raised the issue and stuck clear through to disincorpOra. ton, didn't do any more than all the rest of us would do,-after starting thing, tC see 1t through. We don't believe these lat. ter were very badly disappointed at the result. They made a fight and were in al the close, and we still have town and a corporate organization, and the best thing now is to make up, and if there are evils to be corrected, correct them, and make it our first endeavor to keep Tucson as IL is, one of the best governed places on the Pacific slope.

SATURDAY, MARCH 25, 1876
LOCAL MA TIERS.
A FIutter.

Tucson was thrown into a fiutter Of ex. icitement about noon last Saturday from I the receipt, by MT. C. o. Brown, Of a tele-
 gram from Florence, signed by M, Barnes.
 which read as follows: "Placer mines found near White Mountains; one man
 10 days, loo pounds" About the same time
 Mir. Chas. Poppe at :. N. Fish & Co.'S, re- Iceived a letter from Mir. D. A. Bennett, at Florence, iu which 1t was stated that re- | ports has just reached Florence, that two
 men were on their way, coming in there,
 who had discovered placer deposits in the White mountains, from which, after ten days washing, they had taken IeO pounds, mot ounces, but pounds,) of clean gold.
 ! It Is scarcely necessary to say that a
 thrill Of excitement commenced at the itopmost hair and flashed to the end of the
 longest toe, Of the average resident Of Tue son, on receipt ofthis stirring news. There was sort Of supercilious. sardonic smile ! Of findependence,.w (which seemed to, at once, l light up the features of every other man one met. Hands were showed Into pockets
 with such fierce impulses of suddenly &C., cumulated wealth, dn prospect,) that
 many pockets gave way. As-the veteran
 war horse scents the battle from afar, so
 did the old veteran ofmining excitements,
 here solourning. hft his head and snuff
 the breeze Of a coming successor to Wash oe, White Pine, ct al. It has been a long time since the last great mining excite
 ment on this coast, but if one were started to-day 1t would run as easily and iercely
 as in other days, even with the veterans. 4 rumor Of rich discoveries will send the
 slow blood leaplng through the veins of the confirmed gold seeker, though the frost of years cover his head, and the fur
 rows Of time and disappointment lay deep
 on his face. Experience and crushing failure of hopes, and long acquaintance
 with the wreck strewn pathway of gold hunting, can never entirely surfeit the con firmed, or cure him Of his longing. Has he not seen brilliant successes in others
 and may his chance not be in the futures
 store? And so he hopes while life lasts. We have heard nothing in confirmation
 Of the above reported gold discovery. Pro
 lessor A. L. Pinart, who returned to Tue son on the 22d, from the eastern part of the
 Territory, reports considerable excitement
 at San Carlos over the rumOred gold fields,
 and a general belief in the truth Of the re-
 port. It may be true and 1t may be a weak land foolish attempt at texcitement. Tit be true, as we sincerely hope it Is, that there Is anything as rich as this in Arizona, the wiped out.

AFTER several days Of high winds, the clouds reuctantlly let go their hold on the surrounding mountains, on We'd nesday afternoon, and sailing out over the valley Of the Santa Cruz, gave Tue son its first thunder shower of the season. After little pleasant grumbling and rum- bling, and a short shower Of rain, the clouds retired, and the winds went back 10 their caves, and as the sun set behind the Sierras the valley slept damp and growing beneath clear, cloudleSs sky. But under cover Of the night the clouds broke away again, from their mountain magnets, and at the dawn on Thursday morning. the very heavens seemed open, and the blessed rain fell upon the just and unjust in a steady fall. This lasted for several hours, when the clouds broke, and thereafter the order Of the day was a series of the very lightest kind Of April showers, until evening, when all was clear and serene once more. It has in the meantime been raining quite heavily on the Santa Rita's, which is just what Is wanted.

ON the 18th, the oriental population ol Tucson was increased by an addition oi three Chinamen from Los Angeles. They come 10 stay and work. Hop Kee took them Tn, and has allotted each his task and each has settled down to hls busy
 fate. These people may be bad. They
 may sprinkle our linen through their teeth, knead dough with their feet, las they do
 without dOubt,l and smuggle an occasion
 al eat Into the soup, but if they will wash
 our clothes without tearing them tO pieces, .Or give us better, cleaner looking and
 sweeter food, and lfthey will suppIant our
 late coming, stringy, miserable, disgrace ful, exhorbitant vegetables with the kind other people are blest with, and ifthey will work for us without feeling insulted. iand take our money without cursing us,
 we shall continue, as now, to highly ap- preciate them.
