QUICK SrLvER-E. O. Grant, Esq. the Wickenbdrg merchant, is interested in a cinnabar location in Globe District, Pinal county, with Vim. YerkeS, Uncle Jimmy Coughran and a man named Howard. Ed informs us that Yerkes and Howard, who are practical quicksilver miners, are positive as to the valuable character of the ore and are satisfied that it is abundant. The samples he has seen are pronounced by men of eN- perience in that line 10 be almost pure sul- phurets of mercury. He says, when rubbed up just as it comes from the mine it makes fair article of vermillion paint. They have each a location of fifteen hundred feet.

Concert Last Friday Night.

The pcopIc of Prescott seldom have an oppor,unity of enjoying so rare treat as that afforded them last night al the City Hall. Mrs. \. '. kautz and Mrs. \. B Bower. were the bright particular stars m the brilliant constellation, and, aS they all ways do, charmed tine audience with thelr perfect rendering of the several ballads TOT which thev were cast by the management
 The Sth Infantry Band. under the dlre'- ton af Band Master De Bella. did excellent service and deserves the thanks ot the au- dience.
 The auartettc sang ''Come where my Love lies Dreaming" with melting effect, and iei' the young beneIiicts ot the audience Tn a auandrv as to whether it were better to let her lie and ''dream the happy, happy hours away" and do without breakfast, or insist on her getting up and rpsiling with the pots.
 The tableaux 'Flower of the Family and Little Red Riding Hood" had to be sue cess, being represented by two cNquisltely beautiful little girls who really did not need the assistance of rcd nor white lights 10 ren- der them altogether lovely.
 Prof. De Bella exhibited wonderful wind capacity in filling the cornet during the somewhat protracted rendering of that de hghtful harmony, melody or by whsteveT technical name ii should be known, "Swcet Spirit hear my Prayer" The Professor IS perhaps as perfectly at home with & musical instrument as musicians ever get to he.
 Mir Tamaselli performed very difficult solo on the violin to the evident delight oi those whose ears had been cultivated to ap- preciate it, and for Us, we could not sup nress a sort of inward wish that he would change from performing to fiddling, and give Us q tune that We could try 10 whistle.
 .'The Regular Army. O." by "thc Irish Brigade" created more merriment than any thinn placed upon the stage during the even ing. and established the reputation ot the gentlemen engaged in ii as commedians of no mean order.
 Three scenes from Perrault's story f"Blue Beard were vividly represented m tabieaux. The first shows Blue Beard giving his young wife the keys to his princely mansion, when he k enloinins upon her not to open & cer- tain apartment Then comes the scene where through curiosity she has opened the inter slicted room and discovers the remains of his former wives. the victims of his lust and cruelty. These were rather healthy looking corpscs. as their heads hung in a row on the wall and seemed to smile al the folly of the intruder in thus unwittingly submitting her own fair self io the same sad fate that had overtaken them The last scene in this ser ies of tableaux shows the tyrant in the act of preparing to kill her and add another head ts the ghastly array of his dupes in con sequence of her disobediencc, which he dis covers by an indellible stain upon the key but before he has time to carry his nefsri- ous purpose into execution her friend rushes in and dispatches the monsterwith his sword.
 The entertainment was under the imme- diate supervision of NIT. W. (. Foster, to whose superior knowledge ot all matters pertaining to the stage much Is due in mak' ing it 8 complete success.
