Condensed from the Sentinel of No vember 10:
 The Sentinel prospers. Last week and today not type in it but has been bought since April first. The editor has come out in such new clothes that he daresn't sit down. Increased circu lation has done it. Now we want a steam press and new pair of boots. Send in your names.
 Jenks got in last Friday night brought grain for stage company as far as Mohawk. Bowley got in Monday with eight tons Silver King concentra- tions. Jenks left here Tuesday with 16,OOO for Tucson. BaldopadO left on Monday with 12,OOO for the Silver King mine. Bowley & Go. left on Thursday with 41,OO0 for Tucson. Barney ship ped S7,O00 pounds up river thIs week.
 Rich ground is found on the bed rock all along the bank of the Gila. where it cuts through the old placer diggings near Gila City. Right at the stage sta ton, MT. A. Lange got nine dollars from the bottom of his we'll, and Mrs. Lange has ring made of it. The Wa ter came in so fast that it did not pay to work the ground for gold by bailing out the water with windlaSs. With a steam pump to drain the ground, i'm mense amounts of gold could be obtain ed. Several attempts have been made to work the gravel next the bed rock under the fits. Four and five dollars to the bucket nave been boisted from a number of prospect shafts, but the flow of water has been too copious for mere

New Office for The Citizen.

l We don't like to speak Of ouTself too
 much. We desire, at least, the appear ance Of mOdesty, but We must notice among other improvements in Florence, the new building just erected by us and
 now appropriated to THE CITIZEN. The
 building is forty feet long by twenty-two
 feet wide and built Of the best material Rnd by superior workmen. It's appoint
 mentS are well adapted to the require ments Of printing office and its location Il is an advantageous one and will continue so for at Iesst 6 year tO come. We are on the east side Of Main street, just opposite the new Courthouse. and only one block from the Elliot House, Florence Hotel, Telegraph office and MT. CGllingwood's $ block. We gre convenient to the business community and easy to be found by visit ors and strangers.
 That We have great faith in tue future of Florence is evinced from the fact that we have already invested several hundred dollars here in improvements-and we have no idea of quitting just yet-for we feel that a fesE hundred dollars invested in real estate and improvements in Flor ence now will, in a few years, represent as many thousand. That good time Is sure To come and we have not long 10 wait

Fruit On the GiIa.

The question of fruit culture in this section of the Gila valley has been test ed sufficiently to warrent us in saying that we can claim an equality with the best fruit growing districts of the Pa cific slope. Already a considerable supply of grapes and peaches with some apples form part of our local produce. Several young orchards have been planted and the trees are in an excel lent thrifty condition. We know of other parties that have ordered trees from California, and we believe consid- erable interest will be manifested in this department of agriculture during the coming year.
 This is a step Tn the right direction. A large amount of apples, peaches, ap- pricots, grapes, &c., would be consum- ed at home, and other portions of the Territory could be supplied at reaSona- ble rates. The enterprise must prove a financial success and a great conve- nience and luxury to the people here and elsewhere. During the last six years We have wandered about in vari- ous sections of New MexIco and Ari- zona and we have heard many com plain bitterly of the want of fresh fruits. There is no excuse for such complaint here, we have the water, land and eli. mate, aad olly lack of energy will prevent in a few years, fruit harvest in this section, equal ,C the demands of southern Arizona, and mora. We shall notice with great interest ana pleasure any developments in this line thas may come under our observation, and w;ll publish from time to time such matter as may encourage or instruct fruit-grow- CTS.

Tucson Items.

A few wagon loads of good irish DO tatoes recently came into Tucson from the upper Santa Cruz, and are retail Ing at ten cents per pound.
 Mining news comes in very 6 fast '' and encouraging also from the south ward w II. II. Fellows and Chas Bell, both from Sacramento, Cal, have just come in from a few weeks of ex- animation of the Sacramento and iedg. es east of the Santa Cruz near Gala basas They have with them two and one-half tons of ore which by repeated assays by MT. Bell, is held to be worth $20,000 Ter ton, and as much more will be here in couple of days. The five tons will be sent to California. They say they have some thirty tons of the ore out and the poorest will readily mill $500 per ton, Mir. Eel lows is so much encouraged, that he says he will have ten-stamp mill out there early next year on a site already secured. As cautious men as James H. Toole and George Cooler, as well as others, are much excited and talk Of investing some of their surplus capi- tai in the vein of which the Sacramen- to is a part. A MT Jones being offer ed 5000 for an extension, said thank you" but $3G,OO0 will be required to buy my claim.
 Manager Mageo is in from the Az tee and reports everything prosperous and healthy.
 Kirkpatrick, Flood & O., in the Orc Blanco District have thelr first new furnace done and smelling is go- ing on satisfactorily. It is also report ed that last week this company clean ed up four bars of bullion weighing eighty-twO pounds each, the assay of value of which is eighty per cent. sil- yer
 Col. Fred Drew is quietly working away on the Pima mine, and seems fully contented with the developments.
 Angus Hopkins is sinking on the Ne quilia just west of Tucson, for San Francisco corporation which recently purchased It for $20,000.

 Ex-Governor Woods, of Oregon, and
 Messrs. Reagan and Pettigrew, all heavy stockholders in the Gila City placer company, came down on Wednesday to look at their property and pass on to Pinal county, where Hamilton's case against Reagan comes off pretty soon. They have engaged Professor Price, of San Francisco, to examine their placers and report the proper way to work at them.
 c. D. v. Lovejoy, accused of embez- clement of United States postoffice funds, committed at Tucson, plead guilty to indictment No. 8, and has been sentenced to one year imprison- ment in the Territorial prison. A nolle prosequi was entered on indictment No II.
 White & Allen, mill builders, have been doing a regular land office busi. ness out here thIs season. They put up the Signal mill, one of the finest on the coast; they are putting up the new 20 stamp mill of the McCrackin company ;I they had $45,00 contract on Towns end < Co.'S new mill near Globe, and now they are going to put up TO- stamp mill for the Tip-Top company for $52,000. This kind of business does a country more good than army contracts. Every quartz mill is worth more to Arizona than full regiment of cavalry.
 The engineering and surveying force of the Southern Pacific railroad com pany is now out of the field in Arizona. Their work was carried forward to al point just beyond the Picacho and within forty miles of Tucson. All hands have now reached Yuma, and most of them gone on to California. The only surveying work now on hand is for finishing necessary improvements around Yuma, and for locating side tracks, along which may be accumu- lated such surplus material and rolling stock as it may be desirable to place beyond the reach of California tax grabbers.
 Orders have been given tU prepare a place here to store 300, 900 railroad ties It will take at least two miles of track to stow them, corded up on each side. These are ties enough for over 150I miles of road. Railroad employees tell us that fully 200 miles of steel rails are already landed at San Francisco and around Oakland. The railroad company has raised twenty millions of dollars on bonds marketed in Germany at four per cent. per annum interest. Michael Reese made the trade for them last spring. Of this money they have ten millions loaned out in California on gilt edged Collaterals, at eight per cent. per annum, which pays interest on the whole amount. They thus have ten millions which costs no interest, tOI invest in railroad material. The last Arizona legislature exempted all their property from taxation for six years. They have a pretty good show for ac- cumulating material here for a spurt across the continent when the time for it comes
