A TEST 0f Power.

In few daysa test of a novel character will
be made on the c., Fl. & d. Road, involving
the relations of cost to power in American
locomotive practice. Locomotive No. 3 has
been selected as he best engine on the road,
and with this engine, John w. Hill, NJ. Il. ;.
assisted by l.. M. Hosea, ESQ, and James
Eckfort, Master Mechanic, will make the
test
The objects in view are to determine ac-
cura ely the following points: /. Relation
of engine power to load. 2. Relation of
engine power to boiler power. g. Evapor-
alive capaci to boiler 4. Economy of
boiler. 8. Economy of engines. &. Trac-
tive power with dry rails. 7. Slip drivers
IRE alion of lineal travel to travel by speed
counter) s, Effect of exhaust used as blast.
g. Consumption of water in drawing given
load on level, curves of different radi and
up grades; and other important data from
which results can be calculated bearing
upon the question of economy in the pro-
duction and use of steam power on rail
ways.
The observation will cover the develop
ment of steam in the cylinders; character
is les of valve motion; revolution of drivers;
quality of steam delivered to the dry pipe;
quantity of wa er pumped in o the boiler;
temperature Of steam, feed water and at
mosphere; quantity of coal consumed and
rate of consumption; degree of draught i'll
smoke e-box-all measured with reference to
the speed at given time on known grade
or curve.

DEATH OF J. w. KELSEY.

Judge Jacob W. Kelsey died suddenly. at
 his residence in Kirkland Valley, yester.
 day afternoon, Monday, July 18th, 1878.
 J. W. Ke lsey was born Lyma, Living ston County, New York, on the 7th day of October, 1899, and was consequently in the fiftieth year of his age az the time of his death. His fai her, Dr. Robert Kelsey. was practicing F hysician at Lyma for many years.
 The subject of this notice emigrated to California in 1si49, but returned to his na- tive place withi year or two thereafter. and from thenc removed to Wisconsin and thence to Minn esota.
 In 1865 he .eturned to the Pacific coast and settled wi tn his family in Gold Hill. Nevada. In 1870 he, with his family, con sisting Of wife and daughter, came to Wickenburg, Arizona: and in 1871 settled in Kirkland Valley, where he continuously resided until his death on yesterday.
 Mir. K. was the father of Mrs. c. w. Beach, to whom he has ever heen much devoted. and upon whom tlie news of his sudden taking of falls with crushing effect.
 more kind and effectionate husband i and father, more obliging neighbor, or more punctual and honest, upright man in | ms dealings with his fellow men did not | live in Arizona or elsewhere He was generous, hospitable, kind, and, withal, gentleman of far more than ordinary intel igence.
 During the recent term of the District CoarI he has spent much of his time in Prescott, having business in Court, and seemed in his usual health and spirits, mani iesting no evidence of serious indisposition. Ee left here on Saturday, apparently in perfect health, and the first word received concerning him, after his departure, is that he has passed away from earth, from its cares and its trials as we'll as its transient pleasures, and has, as we firmly trust, already entered upon the enjoyment of purer existence in the "Far away home of the Soul.n
 The deceased leaves a wife and daughter here, brother in Sacramento City, Cal, md numerous relatives and friends in the Eastern States to mourn his untimely de- nise

Hoi FOR CONGRESS.

Now. that Hon. c. c. Bean, has seen fit to keep alocf from the political arena, and ss the general response from large num- Der of people of Northern Arizona, is for an other man, we are warranted in stating that Hon. Alonzo E. Davis, of Mohave county, wilt be candidate for the next Delegacy. Porter having felt of the political pulse in different sections, quietly, without blush, withdraws from the uncertainties of the struggle. MT. Davis, man better known, snd one who has greater claims on the peo- pie. stepi boldly, manly, and with fair chance, to the front, and fills the blank made oy Judge Perter's withdrawal. We now have four respectable candidates in the field from whom to choose. therefore we conclude that the voters of the territory, will have but little trouble at least, in find isg some one of the candidates that is not objectionable.

suRvEr1N ,. PUBLIC LANDS.

From 1871, the year in which Surveyo
 Generals office was opened in Arizona tf June 80, 1877, date of the last Annual Re
 port. there has been expended m public
 surveys in the southern land district S65,
 349; and in the northern district. $5s,349
 That is to say in the four counties of Yuma
 Maricopa, Pinal and Pima, and portion of Yavapai, there has been expended but
 sf2. 900 more than in Mohave and Yavapai counties.
 Again taking the townships surveyed and counting all, whether entire or frac- tional, sectionized or not, the following IS found to be true, and can be readily verifi ed by inspection of any late map showing ail the public urveys.
 In Mohave county there has been forty five townships surveyed, but most of them not sectionized. In Yavapai, eighty town ships, mostly sectionized. Iu Maricopa. thirty mine townships mostly sectionized. in Pinal, twenty-eight townships mostly sec tionized. Pima, fifty-three; Yuma, thirty.
 T-e Surveyor General is by law author ized to survey only certain classes of lands and at all times to give preference to the wants of actual settlers. The best way, to have land surveyed is for the settlers to notify the Suryeyor-General's of ice that they desire to procure titles, and their claims will be attended to as soon as appropriation and instructions will allow. It may not be uninteresting in this regard to know that during the last fiscal year while there were several applications filed Or surveys in the Gila District, there was iot single one received from settler in be northern district, and Deputy Surveyor Foster of Prescott, informed the authorities n Tucson that he did not know where sur Teys were needed Tn his section.
 Another thing, the Florence office was opened in 1874, and from that time until Tune 30, 1877, there had been entered there <, ,S9S acres of land of all classes, and dur ng the same time 22,535 acres were enter d at Prescott, and this notwithstanding hat the odd sections of land along the en- ire Gila valley, and for twenty miles on ither side are railroad lands not subject to ntry, but largely occupied. and that land rants are reputed to exist along the south m border.-[ Citizen.

TWO GALLANT YOUNG OFFICERS
 DROWNED.

Lieutenants Austin Henley and Jobn A. Fucker, were drowned on Thursday last, not far from Camp Supply, under the fol- lowing circumstances, as nearly as we can get them up to the time of this writing, tn ( telegraph line being occupied with offici al and commercial business, as follows:
 The officers appear to have been caught in water-spout, or cloud-burst, which raised an arroya to such night as to rem der it dangerous. Lieut.. Henley, rode into the stream, where his horse was unable to stand, and Lieut.. Fucker, seeing his friend in danger, went to his assistance when the stream took his horse down also and both men were drowned.
 The bodies were taken to Camp Grant, where they were buried on Friday. It is said that Lieutenant Henley was dashed against rock by the force of the current. which SO disabled him that he was unable to help himself, or it is probable he would have swan ashore, and that his friend would not have lost his life in trying to rescue him.

 several hundred thousand sheep grazing
 upon her plains and hill-sides, is entirely

Itl may be claimed that clothing can be made up much cheap CT in the East. This may be 70; stlii, 1t do $ not stand to reason that it should be SUI ficient to overbalauce the great cost of C srrying our wool so many housand miles to great metropolis where 'en's are high and everything expensive in ts manufactur e.

 An article Tn the Scientific American, de- oted to the woolt ,n industry tells us what single woolen m ill in Lawrence, Mass, is npsoie of doing. It produces million ards oI cloth every week. It disburses loO,O00 a week as wages. It employs D. 1o persons, pay ing them at an average rate 9o cents d iy 10 women and girls, and 40 day to men. It consumes 500 tons starcf, and expends $400,000 for printing ld dveing Iaterials every year. The wool

HINES AND MINING.

The Tptop company's mill at Gillett has
 been idle for the last four weeks on account
 of the failure of water in the creek with
 which to supply the mill. The company
 have caused large we'll to be dug and a
 drift made into the channel of the creek
 which will supply the necessary amount and forever do away with hindrance which has been of many thousand dollars damage. The mine (Tiptop) has been steadily worked en1 Che amount of ore now on the dumps at both mill asd mine is worth several hundred thousand dollars. The water is coming into the well and the mill will start up duriae the early part of the coming week. when will be turned out an average of over two thousand dollars daily. Other leads in the Iiptop district continue to yield largely in
 high grade ore and the mines are well thought of by all xho have examined them
 The Peck is and has been for some time yielding about 5000 daily, all of which is being shipped to California.
 At the Tiger work Is going on and plenty of very fine ore is being torn from its dark bed ] and raised to the light of day. At the Kit i Carson, Silver Flake, Silver Belt and Prince mines, many men are working in the shafts. l tunnels, drifts and cuts with sstifactory re. | suits. The Agua Fria Smelter is soon to | be started up by Nr.. c. B. Foster which {. VIII pc anofse '.er source from which to swell !ee .s.d of bullion from Yavapai. The Senator mine is now in competent hands and will also do its share in sending out gold bullion with which to help fill the | cofIers of the money purchasers in the large |
