More beautiful weather never has been OK, perienced in this section of Arizona since its occupation by the white brethren, than that which has spread its mantle during the last month. and we doubt very much whether any of our neighboring States or Territories can boast of a climate which equals that of the mountain town of Pres colt, surrounded by forest of pine, cedar and oak, and guarded over by the grand old mountains, that are opening up from their vast caverRs the sparkling treasures of gold and silver.

BLACK WARRIoR.-The Black Warrior Company has let contract to Frank Kuhn, to sink a shaft fifty feet, commencing in the tunnel little south of the main shaft, and to run level 150 feet south from the shaft, commencing at point fifty feet below the present level. The next level will be started fifty feet below this one, and will run south also, but the third level still fifty feet fur ther down, will run north from the shaft. The development, thus far, in this mine is very encouraging, and there can be but very little doubt of its proving to bo first-class mining property.
