This was not sim ply because it might gratfy her, but also, because her presence was a necessity to his happiness, and so she was witE him in iar Oregon when the last stroke fell upon him. Such love wins love Recognizing the wealth of both his power and his love, and that the last was equal to the first she gave him in return the richest love she knew. During his long, and for the most part, ago nizing illness, she has devoted herself to him with an abandon of selfforgetting and tire less service which would be an insoluble mystery, only that the world knows some thing of the might of love. go strong was her affection that her immense service seemed to her no service at all. friend said to her the other day, as she came from her husbands side for a moment You are doing too much" She replied with sort of a dazed, bewildercd gaze, as though such proposition was incomprehensible, and then said, Doing too much am doing nothing. would gladly die for him."

SS~-- LETTER FROM CHINO VALLEY.

IThe following letter was picked mp near l.. A. Stevens ranch, yesterday, where it had evidently been lost, which will account for the difference between its date and pub- lication.-En.l
 EDITOR MINER As We, the good people of Chino Valley, are law abiding people, I think it no more than right that We should be heard from. As I am no professional ink singer, do not know as l will do jus tice to this, one of Arizona's garden spots. have made up my mind to say something, and 1 am going to say it; and that is, peace and qmetudc rcigns supreme with Us. The health of the Valley is good, and pill dri- yer would find it ground-hog case, as he would find no one tO take his nasty com pounds. The farmers, as general thing, will make an average crop, winch can be attributed to irrigation, as there was not enough rainfall here during the summer season to lay the dust. Corn-husking time has come and is nearly over. MT. D. W. Shivers will make some fifteen tons of corn. his being the finest corn crop raised in the Valley.
 The fence law has come at last, generally speaking, to the satisfaction of all farmers. Stock now roam at large without any cow boy in attendance. All the farms in this Valley, except few, are under good fence Mir <. C. Recs is going ahead fencing bis farm. building it four boards high, and when finished will be the best in the Valley
 The school here is doing well, there being some ten or twelve scholars ia attendance, over which the accomplished and highly esteemed Miss Annie Kethro presides, and teachas the young ideas their b-abs. On Friday evening the young people (yes, and the old ones, tco,) gathered in at the abode | of Messrs Campbell X Bockman, to help George to celebrate his birth-uay. At an | early hour dancing commenced, Messrs ! Campbell and Tony as musicians When l Chino does turn out for a dance, they ! dance. no foolishness about it. Everything ! went of as merry as a marriage bell. Every | body danced, and at a late hour the dance . closed, all wishing Georges birth-day would 1 come often. May you live long, and may you always be as happy as your birthday party was pleasant, is the wish of the

THE ROUTE FROM THE EAST.

Gradually the railroad is stretching out it's iron rails Westward, and before the peo- pie of the far West realize the fact, the iron monster will have passed the Sierra Madre and gained admittance through the gates now barred with rods of silver and gold, and wlIl be firmly planted on Arizona soii' We do not for moment m7g'he thas great enterprise like this, that Is approach- ing us surely and steadily, will pause iiefe, but imagine that their destination VIII eha only when they have arrived at the waters of the coming in and going out ttde, Ie' that be where it will.

Directions have been received from Washington to draw all supplies for the Department of Arizona from the East on account of cheaper prices aud iransporta- ton. and mercantile firms will follow in inc wake of the action of the military. Nearly all the post traders, and several firms m Tucson, are preparing to deal with the East via Fort Garland, Fl Moro and Mogollon road.

SALT RIVER.

We learn that the industrious inhabitants of the Salt River Valley are busily engaged in planting their extensive farms to wheat and barley, and otherwise improving their homes. The town of Phoenix k one of the most thrifty in the Territory, and holds out inducements to persons who may wish to enter into almost any enterprise. The rail read has already found resting place on Arizona soil, and the advent of the iron horse will not be delayed long until il will tap the granary of Arizona, and bring with 1t hundreds of enterprising immigrants, who are watching with close eve the great in ducementS offered in the extended valley of the Salinas, where formerly lived busy people. as evidenced from the great mound cities that dot inc country through length and breadth, and the many leagues of irri- gating canals that traverse the whole face of the country. Changes are taking place annually in this Eden of Arizona, end we predict that within the next decade will there be seen lovely gardens, grand groves and orchards Magnificent plantations stretching away as far as the eye can reach will take the place of mcsquit forests and the wealth of the tropics will be found in this grand dvalley of the Aztccs. Here will be found the orange, lemon, pomegranate and the olive. and that which is now an oasis will be turned into extensive vine yards laden with precious fruit, and the whole Valley will bloom like the lilly. and the tourist or passcr-by will look upon the mammoth garden-spot with awe, wonder and admiration. The alluvial lands are ca pablo of producing almost every species of cereals raised ei,hcr in the Northern, Mid dle or Western States, and, certainly, when railroad communications are opened up with the outside world, our advantages will be great and have a tendency to make the land equally valuable with that of any other section of the United States, while our homes will not be classed as those of the frontier, but as among those of civiliza- ton and comfort

Feeling little uneasy 1 ordered a two-horSe wagon and started with the prisoners for the mili- tary camp fifteen miles down the river, and after going about three miles we were sur rounded by a large body of masked men, the prisoners taken from me and l was or dered to leave there, about that time they commenced shooting and 1 left without waiting to ask what they were shooting at

He immediately put me under arrest, and, next morning, he and Captain Cramer brought me before them and asked me if thought there was any further dan ger of violence; I said there might be l; they told me 10 20 home and if there
 were any further disturbances, to let them know immediately. They appear ed to be anxious to proceed to St Johns to investigate the troubles there. As 1 return ed saw the prisoners, dead, near where they were taken from me. When l got to Springerville l summoned posse of men to bring in the bodies and bury them.
 Those who have been killed are, Pete Godfrey, who killed a German, near Horse head Crossing, Oct. 9th; Sam Godfrey, kill led by a horse throwing him against house, while drunk; Frank Owen, killed by Pete; WillTSheppard, killed by Overstrcet, who stabbed him seven times, about a woman.

THE FALL OF KARs.

As will be seen by our dispatches, the Russian Bear has walked away with the "Sick Man said walk being through rivers of blood which flowed from the dead and wounded 0ttomans. who seemed better will ling to yield up their arms in death, than tc succumb to the invading foe. Fifty thou sand in killed and wounded, with ten thou sand prisoners, constitute the causaldes on the part of the brave Turks. The loss in killed, on the part of the Russians, was 2,700- The 0ttomans have shown stub- born disposition, and have contended every foot of territory gained by the Russians, with determination that cannot but be admired by even those whose sympathies are with the Russians. With the fall of kars, VIC predict that Pevna must soon partake of a similar fate, when. undoubt- edly, Peace Congress will step in and set tic the religious dispute or otherwise.
