NICK PALMER, who arrived on
 Wednesday from Globe district,
 and to whom we are indebted for many interesting facts concerning
 that really desirable mining coun-
 try, says that McMillan & Harris have sold their mine which they had previously bonded to a San
 Francisco gentleman for S120,00O,
 figure surprisingly low for such a mine and which fact, no doubt, the late proprietorS now respectfully admit, but cannot help themselves for the reason that that was the price nominated in the bond which was signed, sealed and delivered before the mine had developed such unparalleled richness. The instrument was given when the mine was sunk upon but fifty feet and M. & H. were authorized to continue the shaft until notice of acceptance or rejection of terms, within the time specified, were made known to M. & H. They continued to sink and now, at the depth of eighty feet. from the clause of the agreement they are made S90,OOO richer than if the bond had not contained it. The mine has been proved, in way known to mining experts, who say there is s5OO,OOO in sight. At the bottom of the shaft there is a vein of crude silver, almost pure,

There passed through our streets

There passed through our streets dnring the past week detach- ment of Navajo Indians, all of whom were enlisted men in the service of the United States, un- der the commaed of a United States Regular Army officer. We are informed that these Indians perform the service for which they have been enlisted in a very satisfactory manner. AS accounts and guides they have no equal 1; and as fighters-well the people of this Territory have had ample experience on that point. It is certainly much more satisfactory to have these Indians fighting for us than against us. It was a wise suggestion to so employ them.-

RObbinG fin Mining.

Even mines may be robbed, and when that takes place it is the owners who are the robbers. This term is applied to the removalof ore from pillars which have been left to carry the roof, or to the improper removal of the rich ore while the poor is left in the mine
 The former destroys the safety of the operations. and the latter is likely to shorten the life of the enterprise, for the sake of imme- diate large profits. A case of the former kind occurred lately in sweden. The old copper mine Of FaIun has been worked for many centuries. and seems to have a history rather unusually broad, of alternate good and bad manage inent. in the seventeenth century several caves occurred, the mine falling in as a consequence of the weakeningO Of the ore pillars. These had been cut away partially on account of the scarcity of the ore. The disasters which this temerity caused compelled the adoption of better system of working; hut after a time another change took place and vast reaches of the mine were removed without leaving adequate supports for the great wall of rock which was thus un- dermined. A short time ago this hanging wall, from point about thousand feet below the surface, gave way. The surface sank fifteen feet over an area of several acres, the mining buildings were injured and it is doubtful whether the mine can ever be worked again.

Out of Luck.

The Union Pacific railroad is out of luck this season. It seems as though the county, the city, the Missouri river, and the cyclones have formed a combination to wreck it generally. If the county
 gets $250, ,000, the river gets $200,- GOO, the cyclone gets $200,0O0, and
 the loss on business by the break the cyclone made in the bridge takes another S100,000, and the loss on through business still keeps up at $1OO,0O0 month over last year, as they say it does, it will require all the genuiS of Jay Gould to keep it out of the hands of a re- ceiver. That is where a good many railroads have gone in the lastyear, and more are on the same down grade under full head of steam; with the bell rope broken, the brakes out of order, the watchman asleep, and an upon switch ahead. -[Omaha Journal of Commerce.

MINERAL oil wells are being developed with pronounced suc- cess in Ventura county Cal. One firm of San Francisco has eNpend- ed a very large amount in the purchase of engines, boring tools etc., and are boring two wells, each of which is to be sunk 1900 feet, unless a flowing well be found at lesser depth. All the oil hith- erto found has to be pumped from the wells. as it consists only of the seepage which is forced up by the gas through the seams in the rock from the grand reservoir supposed to exist at greater depth.
 The chief oil belt in Ventura seems to lie under what is known as Sulphur Mountain, a ridge lying about ten miles north of Ventura, rising to the height of 1000 feet, and continuing for about thirteen miles in a direction nearly east and west. On the north aud south slopes of this range the principal work has been done, the higher wells or those nearest the summit, invaribIy yielding more and better oil than those lower down. The summit itself, lying between the EX-MissiOn and the Ojai ranches, is Government land, and a local company has contracted to have a road made and steam machinery placed on the very top of the ridge. From the well to be bored here ill the very centre of the belt great things are expected. This will make four steam outfits at work, the owners of each of which will sink their wells to the grand reservoir below, or until they are satisfied it does not exist. Mean while from the other wells, black and green, about 300 barrels per month, are being shipped-the former being used in many places in the manufacture of gas.- Min ing Record.

and so nearly so as to present a silver luster. The manner of min ing this is by removing the ore and country rock from either side and then slab it by blows from a sledge and prying of crowbars. Nick Palmer says so and we want no better proof of the truth of the statement than his simple word. Nick also says pay rock is twenty inches, which runs from $500 to $5000 per ton. 23O0 pounds of the richest pay streak, sent to San Francisco, netted the owners $1S,- 000.- Grant County Herald.

SAN FRANCISCO.-Geo. Evans, driver of stage running between Modesto and COulterville, has been arrested by the U. $. Marshal on a charge of abstracting a letter from mail bag on his coach and appropriating its contents. The arrest was made on tho complaint of Postal Superintendent McCu- sick. Evans is the man who is said to have received the gold notes from Postmaster Cody at Coulterville sent in a decey letter. Cody was recently held to answer before grand jury for robbing the U. s. mails. In default of $2000 bail Evans was lodged in in jail.

Denver and Rio Grande Railway.

The Denver & Rio Grande Rail- way company have just completed their road over the Sangre de Christo range of the Rocky mOun- tains, at an elevation of 9339 feet, to Fort Garland, in the San Luis valley, and now propose to offer inducements in the way of low freight rates to the people of Ari- zona to patronize them. The Kansas Pacific gives still another outlet and inlet to our trade.
 All that is needed is for some one of our merchants to break the way and the rest will be obliged 10 follow. Then we shall have goods laid down here at a price so little above San Francisco whole sale prices that we shall hear no more of the ruinOus rates people have to pay for the necessities of life.
 The present terminus at Fort Garland is in Colorado, but it is very near the line of New Mexico, and not a great ways from the northeast corner of Arizona. The distance is considerable yet, it is true, to transport freight by wag- ens, but a majority of the road Is excellent, and we'll adapted to oxen, which can find plenty of natural feed and plenty of water which, under the New Mexican system of freighting, will bring the price per pound down to about the rates that have to be paid for half the distance where teams have te be fed grain. Then again, when the owners of the railroad see that they have something to hope from Arizona they will, Ot course, keep extending their road in this direction, shortening the gap, quickening the time and cheapening the rate.
 This company seems to have but just walked up to the fact that there is d country south and west of Fort Garland that is worthy of their attention. and although they have no scientific data to go upon, ,never having sent their civil engineers to survey the route, they still seem to know the facts to be. and are determined to profit by such knowledge.
 All the surveys and projected routes, as delineated on the maps sent out by the Kansas Pacific show that they had no better con- ception of the lay of the country than 10 suppose the Rio Grande river to be about ali there was of New Mexico, and the only way to reach the waters of the Colorado of the West, or Of the Pacific ocean, was by way nf the San Domingo or San Pedro,and in order to strike the water of these streams have surveyed, as the red lines on the map snow, all around Robin Hoods barn, and lost themselves laundering back to the Colorado, after having nearly surrounded that outlet to the sea. They now evidently see their mistake, and are feeling their way westward from Fort Garland on more direct route and through as good coun- try to the very heart of Arizona, and thence on to tidewater al either one of half dozen good harborS.-lPrescOtt Miner.
