LETTER FROM TUCSON.

EprroR MINER Tucson and the immc. dia1e vicinity was visited last evening by the most terrific tornado and haiI-storm ii has ever been my lot 10 witness. About o'clock in the afternoon the heavy black clouds that had been lowering over the valley for the past few days began conccn. traiing over the northwestern portion et the valley; at SiA, numerous showcrS were noticed al distance of some six or eight miles from town; at seven, the scene was oue of grandeur, the clouds assuming the most fantastic shapes, and floating rapidly from northwest to southeast, at an oleva- ton considerably lower than the summit oi the Santa Catarina mountains, the highest peaks of which were for moment touched hy brilliant and beautiful burst of sun shine, forming picture long to bc remem- bered aS one of Natures pIcttic>t. Soon the wind. hitherto almost dead, began blow ing. gradually increasing. Uutil at i.31 perfect gale was blowing from the north west. in which direction the sky was almost clear. and fears were entertained that the long promised rain would blow over; by some unacCountable chance, however, the wind suddenly shifted to the east with rc- newcd and, if possible, greater force than ever. driving the Storm-cloudS back. At \
 F. NJ. the tornado was al its height, and great clouds of dust were flying in every direction. when the clouds burst. For moment all was darkness, then by the sharp and rapidly succeeding flashes ot lightning. it was observed that the clouds had burst m
 reality; great sheets of water were descend
 ing, and now cane the hail. If the cNPres- sion "hail, fire and damnation' ever was applicable. il was in ;hiS case. The dam- ndii0a was complete. The hailstoucs were of an oblong shape, thrcc-fourths of an inch by an inch in diameter, resembling pigeon eggs. ANON.

\ Coop CoUNrRY-Thc farmers on Salt River have harvested about 2.0oO pounds of wheat and barley to the acre, this year. and 1t k worth 2is cents per pound on the farms where t was raised making an average of $ju to the acre. or 5000 worth of grain from 100 acres of easily tiled land. Still. we iind those amongst u> who dcnounce Salt River and try 10 turn emigration from that lovely garden spot of the Territory. In all places there are growlcrs who are afraid 10 face the music and put thcir shoulder to the work but live out d miserable existence, de nouucing every place where il has been the unfortunate lot of the place ar section to have been polluted by these worthless non workers with their hands. but ever industri- ous with an uutruthful, gossipping tongue. We would advise emigrants coming to Ari- zona for the purpose of making permanent homes for themselves and children to pay but little attention to the idle rumorS of blow-outS. who are al all times ready to talk for the purpose of hearing themselves spout, but go see for yourselves. There is but one Salt River valley in the world. and that you will find a little over 100 miles from Pres colt, in Maricopa county. owin" to the very late day that the rain came, and the small amount at that, crops in lavapai county will he necessarily quite short. Our neighbors in the Salt River valley will be gathers by our misfortune in having to con tend with and accept a year of drought, which gives us a short crop.

From Washington, Pa, Review.
\ lew days since 3 young man VINO
has resided at E!dersvIlle Tor a number of
year-, known rs John Cosgrove, but
whose real name is John Tar, perpe-
trated the following swindles:
He went to Steubenville and repre-
seuted to n merchant tailor OF that place
that he WAS in the employment
of Charles Hsnlin, of Hanlin
station, and that Mr. Hsnlin WIS
indebted 10 him TO q considerable
amount, thus inducing the tailor To make
him "a suit OF clcthing, 10 be sent to MIR.
Hanhn, and that Hsnlin, being indebted
t. him, would pay for the clothing and
hand them over to Cosgrove. The tailor
being acquainted with Mr. Hanlin, read
i'v agreed TO do this, and sent the cloth
Ing according 10 agreement. COsgrove
boarded the trsIn on It's arrival and rep
resented himself TO be Mr.. Hanlin, and
thus got the package. MIR HanIln
knew nothing of the transaction until he
received letter demanding payment
tor the clothing.
Emboldened by this success, COsgrOve
attempted another swindle on larger
scale MIR. Boies sold some few years
since to Lee Il Shepherd an extensive
cosi field A payment of $4,000 coming
due two years since, Mr.. Boies did not
collect it, but let the firm OF Lee Il Shep-
herd retain the money, they paying SIX
per cent. tor the use OF 1t. Co:grove
forging Al order, obtained from Lee "
shepherd check Tor S4,240 Not being
able to get any one to identity hun, he
could not get the money that day. The
firm, tearing that alI was not well, tele-
graphed to BoIes to know about 1t, and
receiving his reply that ali was not right
stopped the payment of the check. No
steps have been taxed for the arrest oi
this gsy young deceiver.

mated by Captain Howgste, of the Signal
Service, states that they had just weather
ed very violent storm of five days dura-
tion, and were then making satisfactory
progress towards their winter quarters in
Cumberland Sound. The captain states
that the crew are in excellent health and
spirits, and he feels encouraged to believe
that the results Will be most satisfactory
to science, as realizing the greatest
achievements that have yet been accom-
plished in the direction of Polar research.
The letter was placed on board OF a

of the soies OF MS feet. 1t rapidly spread
upward, and his legs sweled and
became like petrifcstious. 1t is be-
.icvcd that the legs at the calves

He died Saturday morning, at the age OF

none so serious So this. Generally the
