WE have this week interviewed Prof. ". T. Rickard, of London, now on his way to the mines of the Aztec district, in
 the Santa Rita mountains of Southern Arizona, where he will take charge of the reduction works of the Aztec Syndicate, about to be erected under his supervision. Prof R. takes with him a complete labora- tory and assaying outfit, which are being forwarded by Wells, Fargo & Co.'S Ex- press. Upon his arrival at the mines, he will at once begin to put up one of his patent roasting furnaces on scale to TO st and chlorid;ze twenty tons of ore d.y- this for starter. We learn that the Syndicate has raised all the money it needs for setting up reduction works and putting on a dividend paying basis their mines, now being developed by John E. Magee, gentleman of varied experience in the mining fields of Arizona. Plum. belly, Ross Browne, Ehrenberg, Kustel, Wrightson (the Apaches killed poor Wrightson) and other we'll known experts have all spoken so highly nf the mining ground south of Tucson, that it is gratify- ing to find it occupied, so soon after The Indians have been cleaned out of 1t, by . concern with enterprise and cash enough to thoroughly develop it. ProSpectors have always brought in big reports from the Santa RItas, but Indians have hitherto made work there impossible for small

THE Prescott papers say that Governor Hoyt has gone to Wash. ington. Perhaps he went to help Gen. Kautz keep his command. When Crook went off to get mea- sured for his new Brigadier uni
 form, Kautz> happened to be here and fell heir to this Department; when Stafford resigned, HOyt was secretary and inherited the gub- ernatorial cushion of Arizona. The similar, accidental nature of their preferment may easily make them chums.

Divorce Seekers Paradise.

Here it is. right here in Arizona. The seventh clauSe Ot Section 5 of an ActcOnrerning divorces, passed by our legislature and approved Feb. l6, 1871. reads as follows:
 And whereas. in the developments of future events, cases may be presented be- fore the courts falling substantially within the limits of the law, as herein before stated, yet not within its terms, it is enacted, that whenever the judge who hears cause for divorce deems the case to be within the reason of the law, within the general mis- chief the law is intended to remedy, or within what it may be presumed would have been provided against by the legis- lature establishing the foregoing causes of divorce had it foreseen the specific ease and found language to meet it without including cases not within the same reason he shall grant the divorce.
 Stripped of its verbiage this law really mans, that any jul ge car grant a divorce when he feels like it. This beats Utah or Indiana Yet our last legislature was kept running almost entirely on divor ces, when it was not subsidizinl the "monster railroad monopoly or moving the capital. Ped ! frigidi'y or stertorous respiration would doubtless have been consi dered ground for divorce, had thu legislature of 1871 "found Ian guage to meet it" or ~hould tn Judge "presume it would hay been provided against.

parties. Another trouble with the Santa Rita country Is the rebellious character of it's ores, even of the richest =

parties. Another trouble with the Santa Rita country is the rebellious character of it's ores, even of the richest. =
 Santa Rita is La patrona de To Ymposi- ble"-the patron Saint of the Impos- sible. So the name was well given by the old Spanish discoverers, whose. greed of silver was bafIled by the intractable nature of the ores, even when they were not driven off by Apaches. But in employing irsf Rickard the Aztec Syndicate gets on the outside of rebellious ores. He is a fellow of the Chemical Society of London and former partner of the late John Mi.ci ell, author of several standard works on assaying. He is the inventor of Richards Furnace, an apparatus which
 we have lately seen described in number of scientific periodicals. In this furnace the charge is kept stirred by powerful blast of hot air, thus fastening oxidization and dispensing with considerable human labor. With one of these furnaces Rick.lrd proftably worked ores in Servia, that only carried 215 per cent of copper. He has examined quantities of the Aztec ore in
 San Francisco and has decided to adopt
 the lix viation, or teaching in preference
 to the Washoe or amalgamatiOn process
 This coincides with the experience o!
 Ha-shaw and other miners on the Alta
 and other mines down th way. Lixivia
 ton has proved success down there y when other processes have Jailed. The , ore does not have to be crashed as fire a: , for pans, and can be worked up to 95 pel ing would be necessary for either process
 A large force uf men is now at work on tn,
 mines, taking out ore for supplying th
 reduction works and making openings fo g still larger force. Ample water powe . has been secured on the Sonoita River ? which will be utilized by powerful ? turbine wheel, now on the way out. Go
 Boyle has been pushing the enterpris
 along and has now considerable machiner

THE San Francisco stock market i3 beginning to get interesting again. The drouth in California has made every one hard up and holders of mining stocks have been compelled 10 sell their shares to such an extent that the market has sunk almost out of sight. Now, rains are freshening up the coun- try and making every body easier in pocket: the Comstock is on the eve of new and big developments; the Sutro tunnel will in a few months reduce expenses of min- ing it one half. During the year 1878 we look for such spurt in the stock market as has not been seen in four years. D. 4. Bonnet, whom we all know in Arizona and 8 gentleman named Harris have op.ned an office for the purchase and sale of stocks. as per their card in this paper. They are mak- ing their place headquarters for Arizona mining men and are rro- noting all legitimate Arizona en. terprizes. If this Territory has any business in their line, they are entitled to it.

OUR lucubrat ols on the rich mines of of the Santa Rita mountains have brought out our poetic contributor in the following hymn to the patron saint of fellows who worship girls they can't get.
 SANTA RITA. THE PATRON SAINT OF THE IMPOSSIBLE. Have you heard uf Santa Rita?
 Patron of the hopeless, she; Fleeting dreams of pleasure ieeter
 Under her protection be. Idle wish and aspiration,
 Fruitless hope and gray despair Crave alike her med ation-
 Santa Rita hear my prayer. Long have I, with ardor leal,
 Sought the maiden of my dreams, Chasing still my bright ideal,
 Like marsh-lighl's tempting gleams. Candles sweet and incense s@eeter
 Do VOW thee, week by week Give me, lovely Santa Rita!
 The elusive girl l seek. Rich, fair eyes, like summer twilight. Ere the stars glint through the blue, Beaming with soft and shy light,
 Hiding summer l;ghtuings, too; Rich. brown hair, in wayward cluster,
 Ripping down in heavy fold, Giving, in the sunsets luster,
 Here and there gleam of gold. Fair, sweet face whose quick expression Mirrors well the thoughts that f1iJ- Soft now with lOve's coy confession, Frightened now by fire of wit; Fair, sweet creature-were l bolder. To dispel the doubts that spring, would touch her angel shoulder Just to feel the budding wing. | Silver voice to charm and fill me With an ecstacy of sound; S.)ringing, buuyalt step to thrill me In the waltz's daZing round; l Mind as bright as rainbow's prism, Wit as keen as archer's dart, And to work the mechanism, Just little mite of heart. This is my longing, Santa Rita!
 This the girl for whom wait. Tell me, tell me, shall meet her
 Ere die discunsolate? Are my dreams but idle fancy?
 Lives there such a maiden rare? invoke thy necrOmancy-
 Santa Rita! hear my prayer!
