IT is stated that prominent capitalists
of the country have offered to advance to
the Government the 81, 900, 900 or 3d.
100000 without interest necessary to
pay the army from the LIST of July until
Congress meets in December, rather
than have an extra session of Congress
and its attendant interference with the
restoration of a quiet feeling in business
circles. President Hayes favors the ac-
ceptance Of this generous offer, provided
the leading Democrats in Congress will
give assurance OF their readiness to vote
for the refundipg of the money prompt
Iy upon the assembling of Congress.
Vice President Wheeler seems to favor
the Presidents views, but Secretary
Sherman and McCrary think an extra SEES

be called about the first of May.

a certain appointment, Mr.. Lincoln re
marked that the appointment would be

Blank would probably desire 10 name
the man. I'D like to know who is
President, you Or Blank" broke out
the Westerner, and Mr.. Lincoln in sadly
humorous way replied at once: BLANK
is President. 1t looks ROW IS if the

ARELIABLE Eastern paper says: "Busi
ness is improving for certain. The ho-
tells are full of merchants, and, thank
heaven they are buying. The big impor
tiers are rolling out balls and boxes in
the most cheerful way, and the heart of
the tguckman is made glad. Now, good
people IN the interior take little heart.
We are NOS gong to have war. We
have a President, and things are going
on smoothly and well. Build, buy, mar
ry, and give in marriage just as though
you never heard of hard times. There
was no occasion whatever for the howl,
and now that the shadow is gone, don t
stay frightened. Ii the people get back
their courage, the times viii be as good
in q month as they ever were. Courage
is what we want now.

Rich Showing from Arizona.

There has been open to public in- spection for the past few days a lot of remarkably rich ore, or rather, per haps, we should say, chunks of metal lie silver, lately brought from Arizona This lot, which consists of2230 pounds, is to be seen at the office of the Ger mania Life Insurance Company, 216 Sansome street. It comes from what is known as the Stonewall Jackson claim, in Globe District, and 1t is cal culated that it will yield at the rate of S20,000 per ton, most experts estimat- ing the yield somewhat higher.
 This lode carries a streak of similar stuff as far down as it has been opened, a depth of over 80 feet. This streak, which is not over half an inch wide on the surface, gradually expands un- til it reaches, at the depth of 45 feet, al width of four and one-half inches, which it holds on an average as far down as the lode has been opened On each side of this rich streak is al stratum of ore one foot thick that will average $1700 per ton. This mine isl owned wholly by Messrs. McMellon & Harris, who located it in February. 1876 They have 1900 feet on the ledge, which at many points shows this extremely rich ore in the crop pings. They have five-stamp mill on their mine. which is running on second grade ore. In asserting their ore they have to reject the richer pie ces, these being too near metallic sil- yer to admit of being milled. The foregoing facts we get from parties re- gently from the mine; the lot of ore. to be seen as above, speaking for itself. It is dirty-looking stuff, presenting al very different appearance from the highly crystalized, sparkling ores from the Silver King, also in Arizona. The Jackson lode can be traced, 1t IsI said, for long distance, as many as forty different company locations hay ing already been made upon it.-M. < M. Press, Aug. II.

ITEMS condensed from the Grant County Herald of August II:
 The Herald refers to the murder of J. P. Lewis on the 4th, and that the same day, several miles east of Stafford, Mariana Quiroga was stabbed in the heart with a knife by Jose de la Luz Zamora. ZamOra left immediately af- ter and has not been arrested On Sunday last, at Clifton, Demetrio Sala- gar killed Marcelo Chamara, the latter immediately after being killed by Pa bio Salsides.
 On the 4th instant, E. H. Cuddy was found dead in his house at Fort Bay ard, and Emil Forrer is strongly sus- pected of murdering hlm, and has been arrested On the same day in Silver City, Hugh Flynn was shot and killed by William Jordan It is thought Jordan was justified but he skipped '" and his whereabouts were not ascer- tained
 Potter's express arrived Thursday and reports that Doc. Hammond killed an American, at Globe City, who at tempted to whip him. Name of de ceased not given.

The Weather.

The weather is topic Of unusual inter est at this time all over the Pacific coast.
 and for that matter through the whole country at large. The weather-wise O. California have prophesied and drawn upon the records tO strengthen their pre- dictions. One fellow seemed. to himself at least, to have shown that dry years run In pairs, and that the next year would be
 no wetter than this. The $. F. Bulletin has thus disposed Of this fellows prophe- ey in two ways: First, 1876 can be classed as below the average in the matter Of rain fall, and therefore, if the pair" theory be true, next year or season must have more than the average of rain, and, second, that the records do not sustain the "palr" the. ory. The Bulletin concludes, judging by the most reasonable data on the subject, that the ensuing season and year there will be abundance of rain. We or South ern Arizona have at least month of the summer rainy season yet, and as we write (Friday afternoon) the sky to the east and south is overcast by heavy raIn clouds
 During the week, heavy rains have fallen
 here and there to the west and southwest and in some of the mountains northward, and only mere sprinkle in town. Thurs day morning a bright rainbow appeared and another in the evening. The sun has
 been hot but the breezes, owing to rains on almost every side during the week, have been quite cool. The nights have
 
 out blankets have been needed.
 4 signal service officer at Denver, says the planets are badly mixed up and are making trouble with the weather. He
 says:
 There probably will be the heaviest storm Of the season at or near the 18th, as the planets appear to be terribly mixed up on that day, and it would be well to look out for heavy trough or disagreeable) weather somewhere between the 2Uth and 3th. The principal disturbing positions Of the planets for August appear Co be To- cated about the 5th, the Sth and from the Fist and Jo the 18th.
 The 5th and Sth having gone by without any considerable storm in this section although Denver had d terrific one between those dates-we may prepare for an ele- mental disturbance from the 2Oth 10 the 27th. We consulted Capt. Gay yesterday, {, and while he adheres to his resolution to no longer play weather prophet, he is of opinion that we have a good chance for a lively storm about Feast days. For some unexplained reason, the Captain is of opinion that Us the rain generally has driven the Feasters from their booths to their houses, il will do so again, and if anybody has faith in prayer bringing raIn, they had better ask that 1T it cannot come down before, letit come lively during the Feast. We would by no means have MT. John H. Hovey make a losing on the Feast, but Capt. Gays hint may put him on his guard and he be prepared for 1t. Let the rain come anyhow.
