 PICKET POsT, November 6, '7S.
 The weather here is warm and pleasant. There has been no rains since the floods in August, but indi cations are strong for showers soon No frost has appeared up to this date.
 \ commOdious saloon building, with sundry departments, is being built. Picket Post, in this line, will soon be able to please the most las tidious.
 A popular ball was indulged in last Saturday night. The net proceeds we learn are to be devoted toward the erection of a school house. The at tendance at Sabbath school next day was correspondingly small. Mining interests are steadily, if not rapidly, advancing. We hope in our next to give the HERALD some special items of mining interests. Mean. while the Old King dump is send. ing out ores as rich as ever, and with. out any appearance of exhausting tle store. Many others are accommodating ores for reduction.
 The number of strangers here is in creasing daily.
 The HERALD is gaining friends here, and We think your subscription, will rapidly increase. We are informed that a laborers union has been organized here, and the Chinese question is receiving some attention.
 Our numerous rcd brethren ar, scattering and seeking their variou. agencies. AS consequence hay i. : getting scarce.

TWICE within the past month the Prescott Enterprise has contained lengthy articles advocating the advan- tage of locating the coming railroad town at Gila Bend instead of Mari copa Wells. With the town at Mari copa the travel and freight for North ern Arizona would pass through Phe- nix, and add largely to our import ance. But with the town at Gila Bend this travel would follow a road thirty miles west of Phenix. The natural point for the railroad town is Mari copa, and in all probability will be built there, but the Enterprise, for any in consideration of the love and friendship it bears this town, would prefer to see the travel turned in an- other direction.

Mining Matters.

Arrangements have been perfected which will ensure two fine mills on the Sonoita, one for the Aztec and one for the Toltcc mine.
 Great activity prevails at the Ari vaca mill, near Tucson, the company working all the hands that can be used to advantage, and making great exertIons to forward the work.
 The Miner also says that the Ham, mond and Riggs claim, on the Tiger, is about to change hands, when ma chinery will be put up for prospecting it thoroughly. Mining men gener- ally concede this particular claim, on the Tiger lode, next to the Comstock, so far as surface indications are con- cerned.
 Says the Star: Colonel Stanford, of the law firm of Stanford < Hughes, has returned from the Tombstone dis trict He has made two more pur- chases, the Lioness and Pectoral. i These mines are rich. He has also put a number of men at work on four mines, which will tell shortly of their { probable value. The colonel says the district is still looming up richer every day. New prospectors are ar- irving in the district in large num- bcrs.
 lSdger Bet: The Miami mine, as seen by the passer-by, is an open vol umn, telling in plain and terse Ian. guage the history of it's mismanage- ment. Although it was expected to supply sixty thousand dollar mill with all the ore it could work, the en. tire developemcnt consisted of a crooked hole in the ground" the deepest portion of which was 90 feet The foreman was compelled 10 grub around in the grass roots for ore, and if he had been trying to dig out the remains of an imbeded whale, so feet long, the surface would have been Jeff just about as it is now. And yet, this is truly great nine, only wrequiring iudicious development to make it q source of large profit to its owners Ore that assaycd $13,000 per ton was taken out a few months ago and considerable bodies ofhigh grade ore have been taken out at different points; but it will be something like a miricle if the Miami company evel do any good with it.

 TTPToP, November 1st, 1878.
 "Lively" is the term to use in ref. erence to our camp now. The mine is producing about double the amount of ore that has appeared for the last six months, and is constantly grow. ing richer. The company are em. ploying more men and constantly in. creasing their facilities.
 Two fine business buildings arc nearly completed, and three more are to be commenced soon.
 Several arsstras have been built near here, and the boys are looking for good times and plenty of It.
 There is no mistake that the camp will be livlier than ever this winter.
 We have couple of sensational criminal cases before our justices court. The first is a cutting aifray between two Irishmen, one an Orange. man and the other Catholic. It is supposed that the old religious feud was at the bottom of the affray. That, combined with plenty of poor whis. ky, brought out their bad passions and it nearly come to tragic end. The trial occupied whole day, and resulted in placing the defendant un- der bonds in the sum of $2O0 to an- swer the action of the grand jury The other was a case of wife beating The evidence showed the matter to be what the boys call stand-ofI, '' and the parties were placed under bonds to keep the peace and are now living lovingly together.
 We are very much interested in having our mail nuisance corrected, and hope you will continue to i'm press upon our delegate, whoever he may be, the necessity of acting e-er- getically in the matter. WILKES.

TEe Baldwin.

In an other column will be found an advertisement of this wonderful hotel. We have visited many of the grandest hotels in this country, but none of them will compare in style, finish, and design with the Baldwin Hotel of San Francisco. Mir. Bald win, the builder and owner has spar ed neither tune TOT money In the ef- fort to make his hotel in every partic ular the superior of all others; and he has succeeded beyond doubt. With ten millions of dollars at his command there could be no limit of means The entire cost of the building, ,furn ished and ready for occupancy was three and one-half millions Ofdollars, an enormous sum. IfMr. Baldwin.had instead of putting the amount into q hotel, loaned it out at Arizona rates of interest it would have brought him at the rate of ST0,000 per month. We recommend our patrons to put up at the Baldwin when in the "Golden City" for we know the accomcdations to be first class.

tiles in the South. 1t bursts forth in
the midst of the most fertile country
in the State. 1t bubbles mp in a basin
nearly one hundred feet deep and
about an acre in extent, and sending
from it deep stream, sixty to one
hundred feet wide, and extending six
to eight miles to the OclaWaha River.
In the spring itself sixty boats may lie
at anchor-Quite fleet. The spring
thus forms Il natural inland port, to
which three steamers run regularly
from the st. Johns, making close con-
nections with the ocean steamers at
Palatka. The cleaTneSs OF the water
is truly wonderful. 1t seems even more

Hard Fare in College.

In Scotland a college education is
highly esteemed, and the number of
graduates. in proportion TO the popul-
alton, is larger than in any other coun-
try of Europe, or than III the United
States. But the majority Of students
practice a more rigid economy than is
known in our country, and many spend
less III their entire course than the ave
age expenses of a single year in Ameri-
can colleges. DR.. Guthrie, in his auto
biography, tells several touching anec-
dotes of the hardships cheerfully en-
dured by some of his fellOw-students.
A stout country lad came to the Uni
versity of Edinburgh, bringing with
him a large chest. For three months
he took no meal at any hotel or res
taurant, and asked nothing from his
landlady except hot water. 1t turned
out that his chest was filled with oat-
meal, brought from his country home,
and he himself cooked it with the hot
water received from the landlady, ad-
ding as a relish little butter and salt
\ student who is willing to submit to
such priyations, in order to obtain an
education, is likely to make the most of
his opportunities at college

We should always bear in mind that
it is as bad policy to starve our soil as
it is our livestock; it is quite as much
as we can expect in the one case as in
the other for them to make Salaable pro-
duce out Of raw materials: but to ex-
pect them TO do so out of nothing, or
with insufficient materials, is almost
as absurd as it would be to expect a
bricklayer to make good progress with
his work, at the same time keeping him
short Of brick; get this is what many
farmers seem to be always trying to do.
We may depend upon it that the full
benefit to be derived from the soil, and
from our livestock also, can only be
realized when its productive power is
allowed full play by the plentiful and
judicious supply of food.
