 "A dozen years or 80 ago brawls, often attended with fatal results, were an almost invariable accom- pan;ment of every twenty four hours. Bands of hilarious people, flown with wine, would mount their horses, put spurs to their steeds and almost rival Q desper- ate African when he runs his muck near the source of the Al bert Nyanza. It was their pleas ure to dash over the sidewalks in preference to taking the open roadway, and woe to any one who disputed their passage. When some excited individual would pull out his pistol and blaze away at somebody else, he would be approached by the officials of the law and gently remonstrated with. Instead Of being marched ofto jail, his angry passions would be sOOthed by the myrmidOns of the law, just about as mother would hush the petulant murmur- ings of her child. This was pa triarchal government with ven- geance. The contrast is indeed striking. We doubt whether there is now in the United States a place of the size of Los Angeles in which a quicker or more will. ing respect is paid to law and or. der"

LETTER FROM FINAL MINES.

FINAL MINES, Dec. 17th, 1875. Editor ArizOnc Sentinel :-
 DEAR SIR :-Since l wrote Ste- vens' letters for your paper during the election campaign this fall 8 year ago, I have written scarcely any for the papers: But some friend sent me a SENTINEL the other day, and the thought at once came up in my mind that I should like to see another of my letters published in it's columns. So I will write one, and if you can't find anything of more inter- est you may publish it. But don't crowd out anything good to make room for it, for l am not at ali ambitious to appear in print. What l shall write about may seem rather a dry subject to the readers of the SENTINEL but. nevertheless, it is one of the ut most moment and should deeply interest every true citizen and lover ofhis country.
 First, I will state that l have been here at the mines since the first of April, last, and discovered and own an interest in three or four very good mines myself, sit- uated within two or three miles of the famous SSiver King. All the mines in this district that are being worked meet and even sur pass, in richness, their owners most saEguine expectations. We have, as yet, realized no money from them (with the exception of the Kjng), but everybody is very hopeful of the immediate future. The new mill of Ninnan, Nash & Co.,, started up the other day for the first time-merely as trial, and done it's work very satisfac- tory, crushing a ton of very in- ferior Athens ore which assayed $40 per ton, and extracting there from nearly $100. This is 8 new invention entirely ; crushing the ore between cast iron rollers that revOlve at the rate of about 60 re- volutions per minute-and diffus- ing the quick silver through the amalgann by means of steam. There was doubt in the minds of many-even the proprietors themselves, whether this new process of amalgamating would be 8 success, but last Saturdays run dispelled all doubts and to- morrow the mill will start up for good and run right along. The prOprietors claim that they can work 15 tons of ore every 24 hours. At that rate, mine-owners here will soon be able to show a little money. Nobody questions the mineral wealth of the district or the richness of the ore, and the only thing that puzzled us was what to do with our ore, and how to get it worked. This question is now about to be satisfactorily solved-hope so at least. G. R.

FRYEBURG, Nov 1, 1876.
AT the commencement of the afternoon
meeting of yesterday, Mr. j. Barker of Houl-
ton, presented comprehensive and somewhat
satirical paper upon "The Resources of
Aroostook." A hattering account of the crops
of the present year was given, although the
average seasons are hardly long enough for the
successful raising of Indian COMMAND not
much trial has been made of sweet corn which
might, perhaps, if introduced, lead to the es-
Enlistment of packing and canning factories.
Barley was considered by the writer as the
most profitable crop. Grass seed is a vau-
able prodnct-it may be separated from the
hull by the fail. or running through a thresh-
ing machine. 1t is a profitable crop even when
hay is worth ten dollars per ton Large crops
of potatoes are raised. Many are sent off to
market, but they are mainly consumed by
starch factories at home, where they bring
from 25 to So cents per bushel. The Early
Rose is generally raised. Several cheese fac
tories are established in the county. On &C
count of their nearness to New Brunswick
many farmers prove the opportunity to pro
cure stock from the imported thoroughbreds OIL
