HOW PosTMASTEE KEY STANDS.

Postmaster Key. on his Southern tour with
 the President, made several explanations with reference to the phrase "crring brcih- ren m his Bennington speech, for which he has been severely criticised by some oi the Southern papers but he took nothing back. He cited, in proof. that the rebellion was an error, the facts of the cause being lost; that slavery was abolished. and thatthe Confederate States were saddled hy the war with enormous debts.
 At a banquet given 10 the Presidential par " ln l.ynchhurg. Va, Mr. Key spoke in the same vein as at Chattanooga, In cloSinghis remarks he said that whether he was called a Democrat or not; he desired to bo consid- cred friend of President Hayes adminis- tration. He had probably attended more Cabinet meetings than any other member. and 10 secrets Of the administration were kept hack from him. AtnoHc of these meet ing had he heard an unhind word spoken about the south Some occurrences in the south had given 8 good deal of trouble There Was the ktmpr, massacre in Mississippi and the resistance Co ihe revenue officers in various localities but these were looked upon as local disturbances. and not indicating any diSpositSon on the part of the Southern pco- pie 10 fail in the respect andobcdicncc they owed t0 the general government.

TEf MINES.

Mining enterprises in the various districts have assumed formidable shape, and work ot telling character is being prosecuted on many of the lodcs.
 The Tip-top Company have some fifty men, sll told, making developments as running tunnels, sinking shafts, etc, and their brightest hopes have been more than realized, during the last few days, in the rich strike at the bottom of l25 foot shaft from which they have taken out solid chunks of pure silver. It will not be long before the shrill whistle of an engine that is to propell batteries, pans anI all the various ma chinery, appcriaining 10 aquartz mill will be heard Tn the valley of lhe Black Canyon. mining district fast coming into prominence as one of the richest in Arizona.
 The Peck Company are, with their poor facilities of working their ore, taking out S40.000 per month. We consider lheir f.t- cilitics poor from the fact that all the ore has to be packed out on mules 10 their At Ian quartz mill. thirty mics from the lead, and over rough country. This however will soon be done away with as they have opened wagon road to their mine and have succeeded in landing theIr new mill directly on the ground where 1t k to be erected, and in very short time the rumbling sound Of fhe busy stamps ia their work of reducing ' the ores from the celebrated Peck to a state 1 of purity will greet the ear of the miner. ' pro>pector or others who may chance that ! Way.
 The Turkey Creek mines are receiving their share of attention: work of a character that indicates business Is going on steadily, the ores being packed away awaiting the advent of machinery wherewith to reduce it. The NaSier>on mil k already here and no delay will take place in it's erection when all the rich chlorides will in turn be reduced.
 The Black Warrior is one of the brightest in the way of mines in the and is being developed by home capital. ana inc gentlemen who so nobly stepped forward and lent their means for this worthy object are realizing handsome thing. as they certainly ought.
 In Bradshaw the same glowing accounts '' come in to uS from the numerous miners employed h the work of examining natures vaults ot minerals in fact from every sec Y; lion of the county the reports gre most ia ' .orsble New discoveries are reported daily {; and some 0f a very high and valuable na- ( iure. all ot which has a tendency to make l Dur future outlook bright and encouraging.

FROM THE PECK.

NIT. Robert Archer came in to-day from the Peck. and from him We glean the foi- lowing in regard to the movements in that camp:
 The frame work for the new mill, under thc direction of Mr Nee, is progressing rapidly and will soon be completed. The machinery k all loaded on the wagons al Agua Fria, and in few days will be laad- cd at the mill-site.
 Water has been struck at depth of 20 feet to supply all tine demands for running the mill, which we consider the most i'm important object. aS many of our mills are idle for want of this necessary article. with out which machinery cannot run.
 Brick-kilgs are being burned, and more men are being employed than al any other time since the discovery of this mountain of silver hy Mr F. c. Peek, in 1875. The Company have recently 1Ut siy or eight men to prospecting their ground south of thc discovery clain and entertain hopes of finding the lead equally rich on the exten- sion as that located and called de discovery claim.
 MT Archer informs Us that Mr. McCUskcr is taking orc from ihe Doyle which is hard to beat. and also speaks in the highest terms of the Black Warrior, under Mr. Rains management.
 Never since i.e advent of the pioneer to the lonely hills of our county, which are filled with the precious treasures. has min ins matters looked so bright. Idle men in inc mcuGtans are scarce. and only thought of as something of the past by-gOne days.

SURRENDER OF THE SEz rERCEs.

Our dispatches dated Fort Benton sth and Chicago 10th show that Joseph has at las' surrendered to General Miles near Bear $ Paw Mountain Montana. with his entire command. This of course closes the cam paign agamst the renegade Nez Forces, ant leaves the soldiers of General Crook an'l Terryes departments free to give ther eniife attention 10 the Sioux. What will be done with Joseph becomes question that 'he Interior Department will probably have 10 deal with az they did in the case of the Mo- docs. These were seEt East and placed on a reservation in Indian Territory. where they have behaved themselves admirably and we think Joseph and his non-tFeaiy al lies should be disposed of in the same way The great body of the Nez Perces are peace able and we'll disposed towards the whites, and if these malcontents can be removed from them there is not likely to be any more trouble in that quarter.

 MT Editor, these calculations are true to cent, ana true Co a second, and now a few words 10 show the mighty power of numbers to enumeratc. One per cent interest of the above named sum for one second is over three hundred dccllions of dollars.

NEW ROAD TO THE COLORADO.

The Miller Brothers have just completed an excellent, easy grade, wagon road from Gilson's ranch to Scat:ervile OF ;hc Big Sandy, in Mohavc county, and the residents of the McCackin country are opening the intervening space. on to the Great Colorado, which brings Prescott within l35 miles of nav igation. 1.-the merchants and others of North ern Arizona will consider the importance of this new thornughtnrc, and consign their freight to Miller Brothers. who are in cores pOndcnce with the Railroad Company, ar ranging for the establishment of a new town above Aubrey and the landing of Prescott freight thereat, we believe goods can be laid down from San Francisco to this place for six cents per pound, whereas it now costs from eight to twelve. One thing is quite evideat that merchandise can be freightcd over this new route from the Colorado for three cents per pound for wagon trausporta- tion.
 This route will also benefit this section in giving our lumber merchants an excellent market for large amount of lumber which can be frcightcd Co that sec ton, as back freight, al reasonable ratcs and sold at a figure tEat no other channel can compete with. It is the duty of all to try and encourage this new move.

RAILROADS !N1HEUNIrEp STATES.

From an article in the September number
 oi Harper's Magazine We gather the follow ing interesting facts concerning the rail
 road history of the United States:
 The first iron railway. built in the United
 States and the only one insoperation in lS2 :,
 were the road ai Quincy, Massachusetts. to transport granite from QuarreS to tide water, and Mauch Chunk road to carry coal from the Summit mines in Pennsylvania to the landing on the Lchigh river. Both were short and operated hy horsepower. The Baltimore X Ohio railroad was in pro- cess Of construction at that time. but noth- ing was contemplated beyond horse power railroad.
 The first railroad built in the United States to be operated by steam, was that from Charleston to Hamburg. in South Carolina, which Was chartered January 30th 1898.
 The first locomotive engine ever construct ed.ln the United States was the Best Friend built at West Point foundry. New York, under the direction of F. l.. Miller. for the Charleston & Hamburg road. and turned out December 9th 1890. l. did excellent and regular work for one year. when it was exploded by an ignorant negro fireman, who sat on the lever Of the satty-valvc to stop the noise caused by the escaping steam.
 In January. 1892, nintccn railroads had been constructed in the United States, with an aggregate length ofl.401 miles. In lS40, the yearly average of railroad construction was 800 miles. In 1850 it Ind increased To l,100 miles, and in ls6O, it was nearly 10000 miles h 1870, il was 2O.000 miles, and involved an expenditure of SS000O0. poo. In lS12, the aggregate capital invested in railroads in the United States, was S3.- !59,+23,O5' whose gross revenue amounted Lo Si1394lni5

MILITARY TELEGRAPH. ETC.

 for the purpose of giving those who feel themselves aggrioVcd, q chance 10 file their complaints. As the Lieutenant is in quite a
 remote corner We presume lac will hardly be troubled with complaints from this section.
 He l. undoubtedly cognizant of the fact that thc military telegraph k a great expense to ,he general government and entirely dead weight. when in reality. under iud'cious, careful and proper management II ought to foe >elf-SustainiBg and yield surplus for the Treasury.
