WANTED-A MINISTER'S WIFE.


WANTED-A MINISTER'S WIFE.
Wanted, perfect lady,
Delicate gentle, refined.
With every beauty of person,
And every endowment of mind;
Fitted by early culture
To move in fashionable life
Please notice our advertisement:
WANTED, minister's wife,
Wanted, thoroughbred worker,
Who well to her household looks:
(Shall we see our money wasted
By extravagant Irish cooks?)
Who cuts the daily expenses
With economy sharp as a knife,
And washes and scrubs in kitchen:
ssWanted, minister's wife!''
A livery domestic person.
To scallers' she must not be ''Out,''
1t has such a bad appearance
For her to be gadding about:
Only to visit the parish
Every year Of her life,
And attend the funerals and weddings;
ssWanted, a minister's WIFE"
To conduct the sladieS' meeting"
The sewing circle" attend;
And when we "work for the soldiers
Her ready assistance to lend.
To clothe the destitute children
Where sorrow and want arefife,
And look up Sunday School scholars:
ggVMoofod ,ninjctar'c wifat,,
Careful to entertain strangers,
Travelling agents and ''such:''
OF this kind Of ''angel visit"
The deacons have had so much
AS to prove perfect nuisance,
And hope the plaques of their life
Can soon be sent to the parsons:
"Wanted a minister's wife"'
A perfect pattern Of prudence
Thansall others spending less,
But never disgracing the parish
By looking shabby in dress;
Playing the organ on Sunday
Would aid our laudable strife
To save the society money:
'..Wanted, minister's wife"
But when we have found the person,
We hope, by working the two,
To lift our debt and build new church,
Then we shall know what to do;
For they will be worn and weary,
Needing change of life,
And then We'll advertise: wanted,
A minister and his wife!'

The weekly Arizona miner., 1878-11-22

The Enterprise gives Hon. Coles Bash ford and Gov. Stafford the credit of beire the only two Federal officials who have ever invested in Arizona. It strikes us very forcibly that Secretary Gosper has about twice as much invested in Arizona as tho Enterprise man. For instance, the Salt River Herald property is worth double that of the Enterprise; then, his stock would sell to-day for more than twice as much a; the sheen herd of Marion. We have another Federal official, Marshal Dake, who is already largely interested in Arizona property, and IS anxious to possess real estate in Prescott. Governor Mccormick is another official who spent many thou sands of dollars in mining and other prop erty in Arizona. Suck to the truth Mr EnterDrise

Gold and Silver Production.

Two estimates are made annually of the production of gold and silver from the mines of the United States ana Territo1es that are generally accepted for statistical purposes. One is based upon compilation by John J. Valentine, General Superin- tenGent of Wells, Fargo & Co.'S Express, whose facilities for obtaining such infor- nation are probably unsurpassed. MT. Valentines estimate is for the calender year ending December 31st. The Director of the MinI, supplied with the requisite figures by Professor Raymond, issued an official report of the production for the fiscal year ending June 30th. For the year ending December 31, 1877, Mr Valentine placed the total for Gold at Si6, l29, ,547, and Silver at $47 ,206,- 957, or total of $93, ,33G, ,504 for the States and Territories West of the Missouri River" The estimate of the Director of the Mint for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1877, for all the mines in the United States, was $S4 ,050, ,000, of which amount Gold was set down at $45, 100000, and Silver at $3S, 05O,O0O. Mr. Valentine, however, includes Mexico and British Columbia in his reports, the total for those places being placed at s, 2,610,1S2, for 1871. As an offset to the last named the report of the Director of the Mint mentions various sources, which, in 1S76-5, were credited with a total of S500,- 000. We have observed that the two esti- mates, after making all due allowances, widely differ in the aggregate, MT. Vaien-
 tines beng considerably ahead.
 In his former report the Director re- marked: 1t IS impossible to state, with any degree of accuracy, how long this large rate of production will be maintained. A gradual increase may be expected in Mon tana and Arizona, and there is nothing to indicate decrease in any bullion producing State or Territory, except in the State of Nevada, and that depends upon contingencies which, 10 great extent, must be matter of conjecture only. Several mines in different localities in that State have. with ill the last year or two. been opened and are producing considerable bullion. but whether they, and others which Tn the meantime may be discovered, will yield sufficient to make up the decrease. which, unless other ore bodies on the Comstock shall be found must sooner or later take place, is some what doubtTul."

CORRESPONDENCE.

EDITOR MINER :-All your correspondent intended. when he criticised the action of tine Yuma priest, was to correct very prevalent idea, viz: tnat . Priest, as such. should not work in politics in the manner there exhibited; and secondly, that they had perfect right tn exercise, not only the right of franchise, if citizens, but to use their Legitfmats influence in any direction they saw fit. =.
 Now. the Enterprise gets on its high horse. or rather tree (good idea) to take an o,st-Iike view of affairs The Enterprise dubs the Sentiuel's article a sensational story" I shall leave that for the Sentinel itself to answer; and judging from its general tone, that paper needs no chaperon at my hands. But the gentleman up the tree, takes in the situation and there he- holds. or thinks he does, that liDe ought to be drawn '.somewhere,' and that that somewhere" might be dRylcheTe, providing if was on his side of the line. Then again on account of the lofty eminence, he uses an ergo. an unusual thing for editors on hls side of the political pool. That "sensa- tional" article certainly said that money "a certain sum of silver"-was paid these Mexlcans, under the supervision of the Priest, and so the "careful reader was right, and ergo the Enterprise was-"up a tree"
 Another logical exhibit was when that sheet doubted the "Yuma story and the report here" that Father Becker, of Pres colt, had worked actively" for A. E. Davis, intending to convey the impression that the latter was true. ergo the former was not true. Good logic. No wonder its readers voted straight.
 One word more The Enterprise, "up tree," probably to get out of that horrible ''pool" of politics as espOused by the gen tieman's speech at memorable Campbell meeting, where the gist of logic consisted in a concentrated flew of blasphemy, gets of rap over your fingers, in 'never to be right is nothing more or less than what might be expected from that elevated po- sition up tree" CONCLUDING. Prescott. Nov. IS, 1878.

Anything to beat Campbell" IS still the motto of many of those who worked and voted for Stevens, Davis and Woolsey. The Federal pensioners upon us keep up the din against Campbell; their sayings are echoed by theIr followers here, who forgetting that Campbell is in every respect an ancient and honorable Arizonan, follow in the wake of & few lazyFederal officials, and sigh that some cats paw, who could be used by the Rings, was not elected ia place ofCampbell, whom they cannot use for such purposes as Dele gates have been used.- Enterprise, 18th.
 Innuendoes Insinuations Who arc those lazy Federal officials ? Who are of the RingsG Yavapai County has some Federal office holders, and they are honest capable men, who are willing to see MT. Campbell or any other man take the scat in Congress as Delegate, so long as such person is honestly elected by the voice of the people. They will not be made cats paws of, however, to scat Jno. c. Campbell through any illegal or illegitimate means. Give names. and let's have no more insinu- stions.

''Federal officials, who are here not because they like the Territory or intend to make it their home, should not let their angry pas sions rise because the people who have re- deemed this Territory from barbarian have elected John G. Campbell to Congress. Played-out politicians, such as most of them are. ought to be satisfied with office and emol- uments, without endeavoring to rule or ruin the Territory. Let these civilians pattern after the miiitary,-attend to their own business and let residents of the Terri tory attend to theirs"
 The above from the Enterprise of the 18th inst, is another specimen of its inabil- ity 10 abide by the truth. Not single play st nut politician exists in this coun- ty mo holds office, and more than that, those who do hold office are gentlemen and have not taken any part to injure any gen. tleman who happened to be up for office. We will guarantee that those persons, whom the above illtimed and uncalled for article is intended to hit, care put little about the innuendos and insinuations cast by the immaculate conductor of the Arizona Enterprise, and will continue to breathe free and do their bonded duty without fear or favor from whatsoever source 1t may come. Why does not the illustrious bene- factor who has sawed the country from barbarism" mention names' The fault finder is a wolf in sheep's clothing and is afraid to come out boldly and mention names, for he knows he has DO foundation for the above assertions.

BY TELEGRAPH.

Washington, Nov. 19.-A report is clrcu- latad that the friends of General Grant will bring him forward for the United States sen atorship from Illinois, as the third candidate against Oglesby and Logan, in case or deadlock. It is not believed that either would stand against him. It is also doubted if Grant will allow his name to be used against either. This is thought by some to be a scheme for killing his Presidential nom ina;ien.
 The report of the Secretary of War Wa s read in the Cabinet to-day. He asks that Congress either repeal the posse comitatus clause in the las: appropriation bill and ai- low the President to use the army as author ized by the constitution, or to clearly inter- bret the clause so that the army may be used to suppress disturbances when called upon by the civil authorities. TheSecretary makes no recommendation relative to the transfer of the Indian management to the army. He asks Congress to legalize hls ac- ton in furnishing supplies to the yellow fever sufferers, and a pension 10 the widow of Lieut.. Benner.
 Memphis, Nov. 19.-A severe shock of an earthauake was felt in this city last night at Il:55 o'clock, running north and south.
 Mount Sterling, Kentucky, Nov ls.--A riot took place here to-day, in which from 2O to 30 shots were fired. Two men were in- stantly killed and three wounded.
 Cincinnati, Nov. 19.-The Grand Jury of Zanesville have found indictments against the grave robbers, Lyman Easton, Captain Hilliard and Dr. Hoyt. It is thought that HilIiard, who is much affected by his posi- ton, will make full confession.
 Florence, Italy, Nov. l9.-During the pass age of the procession in honor of King Hum- bert's escape bomb was thrown among the corps of veterans and exploded. Two men were killed and several slightly wounded.
 Erzeroum, Nov. l9.-The Russian army in the new Asiatic provinces has again been placed on war footing.
 San Francisco, Nov. 19.-Frank Oblston visited the Sierra Nevada mine for MT. Flood. this morning, telegraphs in effect as follows: ,' The face of the cross-cut on the 2lO0-foot level is running into ore of a better quality. The face of the 22O0-feet cross-cut IS three fourths in ore averaging over $500 per ton, and will be wholly in ore when further pro- gress is made" MT. Obiston takes most encouraging view of the mine.
