Items from Yuma Sentinel.

\ settlement was made this week of Samter's loss by the late fire. The stock was insured for 5000, and the build. ing for 5000. An agent of the In surance Companies came down and settled the matter by arbitration, Col. Barney, Mr. Lyons and the two parties interested appraising the loss at 5000 on the stock and at $500 on the build- ing. NIT. Samter has gone to San Francisco tO receive his money and to lay in a new stock of goods. All thIs shows the benefit of insuring. One of the safest companies on the coast. the Home Mutual has local agent here and will take proper risks at fair rates. Apply to George Tyng for full informa- ton.
 Baldwin and others are to put up a ive-stamp mIll, and concentrators on Queen Creek, about a mile above Pick et Post. Twenty tons of the machinery, etc, are due here next week.

He leaves here for Florence to day. if well enough. While coming down from San Francisco, and while the train was running some thirty-fiYe miles an hour he accidently stepped of the hlnd car, receiving severe bruises, but breaking no bones. He was soon missed and the train was run back few miles 10 pick him up. We learn that Aaron Mason left Florence last Sunday with money for paying the Silver King employees in full Messrs. Silverberg and Power arrived here yesterday afternoon, but we have not space this week for all we learned from them.

Rig Strikes, Chispas and Nuggets.

A writer in the Mining and ,Scientif ! ic Press in a review of the inning oper ations on the Pacific Coast during 1871 says:
 The era of big strikes, chispas and nuggets, does not seem to have wholly passed away Constantly, these rich finds are occurring, reminding ns of the old time luck, when miners realized fortunes m a week, and sometimes in d day. And it is probable that these strikes happen oftener that is popular ly supposed, miners being more chary now than they used Co be about pub fishing them 10 the world. The Chi nese, who on account of their plOdding habits, and peculiar method of purSu- ing the business, are remarkably lucky in this respect, but never let their good fortune be known if they can help ii, the reasons for this being many and obvious. X Chinaman working a pla- cer claim at Columbia, TuOlumne cOun- tv. picked up last summer, a piece Oi gold worth nearly $500. X company of these people working a river-Oed claim, on the Middle fork of Feather river, took out, not long since, a num- Der of chispas weighing from one to fourteen pounds each, the total value of their find having been estimated at no less that S15,00O tO S20,000. For a considerable length of time the Chi .nese were in the habit of selling to the bankers in Placer county chunks of gold weighing from two to ten ounces each that had evidently been chtseleI from a large mass, the entire quantity SO disposed of amounting tO several thousand dollars. While the Chinese seem to have had more than their share of this good fortune, the latter has by no means been confined to this race. All over the coast we hear of big strikes, valuable ore finds and nuggets being unearthed or picked up in slui- ces and from dump-plles by the whites, these instances being too numerous to be mentioned other than in d general way. From Arizona several small lots of remarkably rich ores have been re- ceived during ihe year, the most of them taken from the Silver King and the Stonewall Jackson mine. These parcels of ore varied from 300 Co 600 pounds tO a ton or more in welght, be- ing independent of much larger ship ments of very rich but lower grade ores received from that quarter.

broae drive, graveled grass plots, and in fact, such tasteful combination of the beauties of art and nature, as to render it a most delightful and en- chanting spot. This, by the way, was the arena of a very interesting but mod est ceremony on Sunday last, it being the twenty-ffth anniversary of the mar riage of the occupants of the White House-the first silver wedding ever celebrated in the mansion. May they enjoy peace, prosperity and happiness through another quarter of a century.
 The New State and War Depart ments, situated immediately west of the White House, was commenced in 1870 and is now about half completed. It is a structuEt so magnificent that il will require a more skilled pen than mine to do it justice. I may however say more about this some other time. The Treasury building situated be- tween the White House and Fifteenth street is constructed in massive Ionic architecture, and is occupied by the numerous offices of thIs Department.
 The Patent Office, located in about the center of the city, is a fine marble building, occupying two whole squares, thls contains the office of the Secre- tary of the Interior, also of the Con- missioner of Indian Affairs, the Con- missioner of the General Land Office. with apartments for their assistants. deputies and clerks, also all models and patents are deposited in this build ing.
 The General Postoffice is south of F street directly opposite the Patent or fee, occupies whole block and con- tains tie chief offices of the Postofiice Department. All money orders for the District of Columbia are paid here. and I find it a very attractive place these hard times. DON.

What Is Patience?
BY M. F. DANIELS.

Round the teacher stood the children,
 Earnest listeners to each word, And their eyes grow wide with wonder
 at the story which they heard. Of saint whose steadfast patience.
 Stronger than all loss and pain, Made her cell holy dwelling
 Christs dear presence to contain, So that when she died, halo
 shone about her happy face, And the tender hands of angels
 Bore her from the prison place. The rare beauty of the story,
 Told in loving, reverent tone, Swayed anu thrilled the little listeners
 With a power all its own: But the teacher, greatly fearing
 Lest the meaning were too high. Asked the question, What is patience?''
 Hardly hoping for reply. With two blue eyes lower dropping,
 Red lips embling-half afraid, ' Wait a wee and dinna weary"
 Said a little Scottish maid.
