PICKET POST.
Cor. Prescott, cArizoaal Miner.


 About thirty miles northeast from the town of Florence. is a fiourishing village which is called Picket Post. Some years ago, in Indian times, when General Stoncman was in com mand of the military forces in this section of Arizona, he had his head quarters at Pinal Ranch and cs- tiblished an outpost on Queens Gre k where is located the mill of the famous Silver King mine. It Was not known in those tim $ what q vast mine ot mineral wealth slum- bsrcd bcne,th the ground for which the military au.ho.ities and the h. disns u 'splted, and only few year have pasSel since prospect)rl d CIV attention to the fact tLat the Pinal mountains Were ial.cl a IF a>rl-c hous'.

About fnccl t)is of ore, per day, is conc .n.ra.el ia inc mil at this plac'. which has five stamps aul rum1r Jys that the Company clear S50.00O per mont'i. No W TX has been don. on ihs mine for some time as there is sufficient ores on the dump to supply the mill for a year. The capacity of the mill will be d)uLlel. \ reliable Sln Francisco corporation has machinery on the ground near Picket Post, for q custom stamp mill and are delayed i'll their operations on account of the difficulty of procuring lumber from Prescott. The corporation is known as the Pnal Mill and Mining O.. but is in no manner rcllt,d to or connected with the Smelling outfit of that name. waich victimized some of the Iavapli peopleand l,ftan endur- ing moumen: ofits folly. Hundreds of locations have been made in this pioneer district. and rich discoveries are constantly reported, but the de velopment of mines is by no means rapid, owing u slow, unce. tlin and expensive transportation; the expense of living and lumber at one hundred and fifty dollars per thousand. The miners in these mountains are hopeful, genial, cheerful sat of men, haviag neither pov rty nor riches, but an abnnd nee of faith, pat.en.ly waiting for a turn of the tide. They talk of the B lcher, Crown Point, Savage, Eureka, Surprise, etc, with as much confidence as if the.r locations were on thc Comstock, and they. themselves, the future bonanza kings of A.izona.

TIE CROP OF 1sfs.

The principal crops of this season were corn aud beans. Jack Swilling. John Larson, Jacob Denslinger and Tom McGoldrick were the chief farmers. There was much rain dur ing the season and the corn crop Was specially good. One who slw it says that Swilling had about l5 acres of as fine corn as might be see, in any of the Western states Ina are celebrated for the production of this grain. In no season since that year have our farmers been able to raise so good a crop of corn.
 NEW ARRIVALS.
 Some additions to the settlement were made this season. Among them we note that of Hon. J. T. Alsap, who became Secretary of the Swiliing Ditch Company, position which he has continued to hold and fill acceptably through all the com pany's changes up to the present time. During his term of office full and complete records of all the pro- ceedings of the company have bcea recorded and preserved. Much Of the good that has been accomplished for this valley may be justly atirib- uted to the efficiency of its Secretary.
 DITCH MAD.
 Under the laws of the United States and those of the Territory great facilities are given for water claims for irrigltiug, milling, mining and manufacturing purposes. The glorious crop raised so surely here, wherever tie ir.iratilg st-eams c,ul1 be brought t1 l level with the susia-e, ,ti;lulatyd our farmers won- Ge. fully. aud NC find them perfectly ditch ma,. judging f:om their re corled l3:a:irns. The records of iar.co;.a co1m.y show an acre gat" of 365. $50 inches of water so claimed rem Sit river ani it. af- aCe"ts. Aside from this amount there are sever dilchos claiain- ir-a qu .nt'tics of water from Sa'.. .ircr that were ,"cJ.ie il Yay!pli co"nty lri z to th;s co:ntyS orsu.i- zaiion. Mmy of these ditc,.es were U mY-Ovel.

IMPROVEMENTS.

Steadily and surely the county was improved. New settlers con tiuued to arrive; irriglting ditchcs were extended and new ranches were brought into cultivation. Sure ty of crops was found certain as the water failed not. Barley super seded com as the staple crop. Im- mense profits, in proporIion to amount of labor required ill the production of crops, were realized. All kinds of garden vegetables were produced In such crispness of growth, excellence of quality and immense ness of yield that they became drug without q market, and lhc old bach elors, who were principally the bulk of lhe settlement, b.camc careless about their planting. gardening therefor played out and almost the entire attention of the rIncheros was iirected to the production of barley.

reported to be 10000 strong-the

of serious character. Ii the advance
force of invasion should meet with
disaster, greater forces will be hasten

and his power destroyed.
But the British press has all along
asserted that Russia was secretly sus-
tanning the Amer 10 his opposition to
british demands, aud the apprehen-
inns have been expressed that the con

has been forced upon Us by Russian

There Is. therefore, a possibility of
complications involving tremendous
