 EDITOR CITIZEN: For public iufor maiion please note tae following, and Tn so doin: please allow me to correct an error made in last number of THE CITIZEN, in regard 10 the Duryae mill. It Is a tw bstamp instead of ten, as re- ported. and unlike our e mmDn quartz mills, the stamps are raised by piston directly from the engine, and at the rate of 200 6rnps per minute and will. they claim. '9f1si twenty tnns of ore in tweniy.foug hours. It was started running last week and we will sOon know what it can do. The Townsend mill is 4 len-stImp, and the latest i'm. proved machinery direct from the fnun. dry, and Is, 1 understand, 10 be ready to run in forty day, the machinery be- ing about all on the ground, will, il properly managed, be a great help tn our camp.
 The weather is cool and some little showers of rain. The health of the camp very 2 'od the miners seem cheer ful. and the mining outlook IS better than ever.
 Work Is being pushed on a large number Of mines with good results. The principal ones are as follows Champion by J. D. Wilson & Co, which is yielding some very high grade ore also the Rescue, by the same cam pany, Is turning out some fine ore The Miami, by Chapman & Co. is also lorking we'll; they have on the dump about forty tlns of very fine ore, ready for the mill when it is started. D.. D. J. Wilson and J. II. Gibbons are still dJ- ing work On the Centennial, and have some very tiae ore which will run in to the thousands. At the Richmond Basin they are working the Hellen, with good results. It is owned by Messrs. Alvany and Dickey, the origin al discovererS of the Richmond mine The CromO. by MT. David Beardsley and Capt. J. A. Moore, of MaricOpa Wells, which IS no doubt valuable property. The Imperial, by Charle' Mason & Brothers, which is a most excellent prospect; Is worth one hun dred thousand dollars to-day, there be- ing very near that amount In sight. But the Siuncwall Jackson looms up the grandest nf all This k being work ed vigorously by the company who bought il. And speaking frhm an i'm partial point of view. not being inter- ested only indirectly, pronounce it
 THE RICHEST THING ON THE GLOBE. If l was given to exaggeraiiOl, 1 could not exaggerate its fabulous richness. They took out one piece st week that wei ighed 5j9 pounds, that is eighty per cent. silver. I counted fifteen boxes Of ore, or l might say bullion, ready to ship, weighing from 100 to 50J pounds. aud quite d number of sacks i; and the same company has struck a rich body of ore on the Lii tie Mac. My congenial old friend Thom Riley conducted ms through the mine; he is fUremin ani experimenting, as the superintendent Mr. Terney is in Cali furnia now The vein Is about four teen inches wiG' ald very near pure silver. Mir Riley informed me that they would make the largest shipment in a few days ever made yei, winch will surely cause sensation in San Fran else ,, and will certainly remove ali doubts as tO the mineral wealth of Ari. zona. It is wonderful tp see tons of silver in it's naive state, just as it was dug from the earth, nol oaly from one mine but from several.
 The Democrat, owned by MeSsrs King & Dickens, is the first northeast extension on the Little Mac, and IS d tine prospect indeed; one man took out of it in two days 1900 ounces of silver. Tue R. E. Lee, which was sold by Tumpkins and others 10 Tourney S Scott. Is also an excellent mine, and many others are very promising. The TiIwell mill is doing excellent work. It made q run on ore from the Little Mac and cleaned up over ninety per cent. of ihe fire assays sOmeIhing rarely ever done.
 The camp is quile Ii ely and every une scems to have some money. One thing needed here very much is in creased mail service We should have d lri weekly m&tl. The increase of business and population demands IL, aad peliuon has Jeen circulated here and numerou>ly signed and sent 10 the proper authorities '.t Washington for action.
 MT. II. L. Hart, ageLt at San Carlos, accompanied by ex-agent J. r. Cum paid Globe a visit few days ago. Peace and good ortei prevails al San Carlos, and good feelings exist between the miners and Indians.
