Gossip.

Messrs. Wm. Leet and Chas. Bell left here for Tucson on Monday. MT. Leet has become interested in the famous old Ca babi mine and we hope his arrangements are all made for starting it up again. For many years it was the most extensively worked mine in the Territory. Some ten years ago the miners were driven out of large ore bodies by water, which at that time they had no means of removing. MT. Bell is interested ill the Sacramento mine, near Tubac A couple of months ago he was down there and shipped few tons Of ore to San Francisco. These shipments cave average returns of 5000 per ton, which has encouraged his company to complete all arrangements for vigorous development of the property.
 I. Goldberg, Esq, of Tucson, is here on business. He is one of Arizona's pioneer business men. There is scarcely an enter prise or part of the Territory that he has not been into

"Structure No. II" arrived from the mouth of the river last Saturday, bringing up everything that the c. s. N. Co. pro- poses to remove from the old shipyard, and barge that was down there for re- pairs. Structure No. II was the name given to the steamer Mohave while she was being built and until name for her was finally decided upon. The Cocopah arrived Thursday from up river, making the trip from Aubrey in four days. She is advertised to sail to-day for Mohave.
 The Gila left yesterday for Ehrenberg with a number of passengers and the fol- lowing freight list:
 For Prescott: F GS II, 3 packages; c II & Co, 73S; L B & Co, 2SS; W M B, 4; J G c, 49; K & S,9; ES,7; re B, 5; F W ", 1:RC,2;EG, 1; A & R, SS; Diamond c, 24; HBW, u;IKA, l; Al NJ, 6; J R, 1; s A 1;GSPS Co, 3; G x Bro, 5; Roden- berg Il; W & II, S5; G NJ, 3; F w B, 1; Farrihgto s.
 Wickenburg: NJ LIP, 172; WS, 75; A HP,1.
 Ehrenberg: w P, 5; R E F, s; J M B, q; Bryan, ,; II G, J G & Bro, 259; L G, 25; Sncad 8; and few other packages on eX- pense bills.
 Right here we will explain to readers of the SENTINEL that it is almost impossible to secure absolute accuracy in all the de- tails of a freight list; though we do the best we can. The list cannot be made up until the freight is all loaded. Then the bills are handed to the purser and the boat goes off with them. We have to slip in at the last and exact moment to get the | items at all. All the clerks and employees of the c. s. N. Co. are very obliging and willing to give proper information; but none of them knows, until boat is loaded just what her freight list will be; they are overworked and hurried; they begin work before seven o'clock a. m. and rarely stoI work before nine p. m. Freight lists pub lshed in the Prescott papers are usually telegraphed from SENTINEL copy, thus re beating any unavoidable errors we may have made. This occurred in the Enter prise of February 9. With the assurance that no pains will be spared to give list: as correctly as possible, we feel that nc further explanation is required
 There were two more boats and barge: here after the Gila left, and more thar freight enough to load them. Beside. goods in warehouse there were thirty load ed box cars and two flats standing on th' tracks and what river freight came in b, rail yesterday and this morning.
 The Colorado was working oyer grave bar about mile above Aubrey on tn 10th, on her way to Mohaye. She left her January r. and has had hard trip. Sh

Small pox got among tEe Indians on the other side of the river. The poor wretches have suffered terribly for want of food and clothing and presumably some deaths have occurred among them. For obvious reasohs we have not investi- gated the matter closely. The Indian me- dicine men must have had rough time of it. Each of them is allowed to have six patients die under his treatment, but when the seventh dies, the corpse's friends club the ,octOr to death. Last week, by per mission of chief Pascual, a medicine man shot two babies, placing them so that one bullet killed both. They had small poN and were pronounced past the doctors skill when he was called in. Therefore their deaths do not count on his limit o six Nice people.

Small pox is still on the decrease here. Two of the doctors tell us they think there can not now be more than b cases. Pas cual, chief of the Yumas, says there are now no cases among his tribe, all having got well that did not die So few of the Indians have painted their faces black that there could not have been many deaths among them. Black paint is their regula tion mourning.

The Colorado river has been rising con- siderably of late, to the increased comfort of steamboat men. Just now it looks as if there will not be much of an overflow this year. But little snow has fallen in the mountains at the head of our river: no blockade has yet occurred on the Central Pacific railroad and, at this season, little more snow can be looked for.

Two eight-mule teams are now employ ed in hauling lead ore from the Castle Dome mines to the landing, but they do not begin to keep up with the output. Starkweather alone has over 75 tons ready to haul, and as soon as he begins stoping in the Arkansaw, will turn out four or hVe tons day from that claim. He was here this week, looking for another team, but we failed 10 learn what success he met.

Another Awful Peril.

According 10 the Science Of
Health, q medical journal, the ensu-
ing seven years will be a period Of
war, famine and pestilence upon the
face of the earth, superinduced by
celestial causes. It Is noted that
the period of woe unto mankind
has already set in, as witness the
recent famines in China and India,
the phenomenal tidal waves and
marine earthquakes in the South
Pacific, the Ominous mutterings Of
wars and rumors Of wars in Europe
and Asia, the yellow fever epidemic
in our own country, and the skeie-
ton foot prints Of cholera adyanc
ing westward across the North Al
rican deserts. The cause Of these
alarming disturbances in the physi-
cal world is stated by the Science OF
Health 70 be the approaching sim
ultaneous perihelion Of the -four
largest planets of our solar system
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Nep-
tune. During the terrestrial year
OF ISS0-Sl, these four planets will
make their nearest approach 70 the
sun all az once. and il is predicted
that the result will be a serious
modification OF the atmospheric
and organic conditions of ouI
