 the House.
 1 Wm, Gilsen of Date Creek, who started
 out for home on Tuesday last with lumber

 wagon wheels which compelled him to re-
 turn to town for repairs.
 S. c. Rees, of Chino Valley, purchased rom Dr. Thibodo, this morning. two pair of fne horses together with a new wagon and harness, paying for the same $500. The horses alone are worth the price paid for all.
 MT. Crow and family will depart for the States on Monday next MT. D. c. Leon. arc, who has been employed in the MINER once for year past, will accompany them as far as New Mexico, on his way to Wis consin.
 We learn that tine new owners of the Vul ture mine are surveying and making prepa- ratlons to work tine same on grand scale. It IS the opinion of experts that the Vul- ture mine hPs not even been scratched over and that 1t IS the biggest thing in America.
 THREE TIMES FLooDED-We are in formed that during the heavy rains of last month, the farm of Wales Arnold, situate on the hesdwaters of Beaver Creek, was flooded three times from the bursting of water spouts immediately above the ranch. At one time the water stood at least IS inches around their dwelling, drowning many of their fowls and dcstroyIng con siderable of their farm products.
 Yavapai and Mohave counties shipped during tine month of August, to San Fran cisco, in silver bullion, S16O,000 The San Francisco papers don't make much of a blow about the increased bullion shipments from Arizona to their city We don't need any notice however from the press of that city, as our mines talk for themselves and are bound 10 take the front rank among all other mining properties on the Pacific Coast.
 Wm. Price, of Walnut Grove, who was arrested and brought to town on charge of obtaining calf under false pretences, was, after hearing the testimony of the pros ecuting witness, discharged by Justice Moves on motion of acting District Attorney Morgan, there being no foundation for the accusation and arrest
 We regret to learn that the defendant, not satisfied with the ample ratification of This character afforded in court, subse- quenty built head upon the prosecuting witness, MT. CullemDer.
 Cor. WoOLsEY-The next Delegate to Congress, and the working masses friend, Col. WoOlsey, arrived in town this after noon. He is now out for the purpose of in- terviewing and being interviewed. Mir. Woolsey stands well all over the Territory perhaps with the single exception of the town of Tucson where he engendered the hatred of the people of that place by giving his vote in favor of placing the Capital at Prescott. He knew that Prescott was the proper place for it, and his vote on that question was purely one of right. The Col. will visit every mining camp and town in Yavapai and Mohave counties before return ing home.
 Jerry Sullivan returned from trip to county, yesterday, and from him we gather the following items in regard to business in that section and other places which he visited on his trip: At Phenix he found times rather dull on account of the high stage of the river which had almost en- tirely suspended travel. Some forty teams were camped on either side of Salt River, waiting for the waters to recede, so that they could cross. Quite a number of brick buildings are going up at Phenix. NJ. l.. Pcralta has just opened up fine stock Of goods there and is putting up large new brick front into which he will remove after completion. The grain harvest throughout the valley this season has been large and everything seems bright | for the farmers. The Golden Star mill, near Cave Creek. will be ready 10 start up in about thirty days. MT. Hellings the Super | intendent, is pushing work vigorously both | at mine and mill. At Tiptop no men are kept emploped taking out ore and pros | pecting the mine. At Gillett the mill is | steadily on rich ore, and the yield | daily comes up to about $l,S00' At Brad i shaw the mines arc yielding splendid ore and the people of that section feel jubilant ever the prospect of soon having two or three quartz mills in full blast.
