An Arizona Pioneer.


 Herman Ehrenberg was TO ordinary man He came to the United States at an earl, age and worked his way to New Orleans where he was located when the Texas wal summoned him with others to activity. ITe enlisted in the .New Orleans Grays,n and was present at the battle of Gollad and FanniDgs defeat, and was one of tho few who survived the barbarous massacre of prisoners who surrendered to the Mexican authorities. At tie close of the Texan struggle he returned to Germany, and wrote an account in his native language of that interesting period, giving much informa- tion of the new country, which has induced a large emigration of Germans to Texas. He afterward returned to the United States and, in fS40, at St. Louis, joined a party which crossed the continent to Ore. gon. Thence he went to the Sandwich Is- lands, and after wandering in Polynesia a few years returned to California in time to join Colonel Fremont in the effort to free California from Mexican rule. He remain ed in California until the Gadsden purchase attracted his restless nature Tn 1856 he settled near Tubac and engaged in working the silver mines in the Santa Rita noun tains, Arivica, Cerro Colorado and other parts of the Territory. He was a civil cn. gineer and scientist of more than ordinary reputation and ability. The town of Eli- renberg, Yuma county, was laid out by and named after him. He was killed at Palm Springs, on the California desert.--I Hin toms Hand Book

TYING, AS A scHEmER.

Tyng, of the Sentinel "gives himself away in an article referring to the Bank of Arizona Territorial Treasurer, etc, in his issue oi February 23d, and shows what he has in his head, and how the Territorial funds would be handled if he had the handling of them; but he seems to have been so dazzled by the briliiancy of the picture his iInagina- tscn has drawn, that he has utterly failed to recogonize somewhat notorious fact in connection with Territorial affairs, viz, that while sgreat sums of money have recently been paid into the Territorial Treasury, the last Legislature appropriated large sum of money to be paid for fighting Indians on the Southern border, and that while moneys have been coming in, they have been paid out just as fast.
 Here is what his bran has evolved while fncdifatjng on what ssmight have been" if Tyng, instead of Butler, had happened to be Treasurer.
 .sWe know that great sums of money have recently been paid into the Territorial Treas urv that tho Territorial Treasurer is also a pillar of the Bank of Arizona. Everybody knows these facts, while possibly not every body has the same blind confidence Tn that Treasurer's integrity that the Sentinel has. Under these circeAistances it becomes easy for weak minds to suspect the Bank of Ari- zona, in collision with the Treasurer, of fol- lowing an army precedent and of using Territorial money in the purchase of Tern torial vouchers. at discount ruiRous to Territorial creditors"
 While it is true that the Treasurer of Ari- zona is Director of the Bank of Arizona if is at the same time true that thus far in his career, as such Treasurer, he has found warrant holders standing ready, as fast as moneys hare been received into the general fund, to gobble itup so promptly that he has never. even 80 much as had occasion to deposit dollar of it in the Bank of Arizo- ma, for speculation, safe keeping or otherwise
 The suggestion that the above supposiiion is the enlination of "weal mind strikes us ss being quite forcible; and yet it is an actlve little thing.

THE MINES.

From every district and mining cam, within the County comes the same welcom, and cheering news-that of rich ore, new discoveries and general upward tendenc, in mining interests. Near Ash Creek < mammoth gold ledge has been found, and is being prospected. The developments thus far show the ledge to be of wonderful value.
 In the Black Hills and Cherry Creek country several mines are being worked with satisfactory results.
 The Kit Carson. in the Goodwin district is producing some excellent smelling ore which will soon be reduced at the Agua Fria smelfer
 The Black Warrior and Prince mines. in Peck District, continue to yield large quan. titles of high grade ere, and the great wealth of these important lodges requires but short time to demonstrate itself Al the Peck the usual number of men are kept employed in mine and mill, and apparenfiy things are working around into healthy and prosperous condition. The various mining properties in the Peck district which are bsing worked. all, without a sin gle exception, are producing ore that is worth hundreds of dollars to the ton.
 In Humbug district, just now, greater activity prevails than in any eff those surrounding it. Ore that pays into the thousands is common, and the discovery of new mines is of daily occurrence. The new mill is completed and running to charm on the abundance of high-grade ores bein 2 taken in from the Company's mines and those of other parties who own claims ad- jacent.
 In Turkey Creek, the Masterson mill is working away satisfactorily, and the mine owners are, as unit, receiving just re- ward for their una5ating exertions and hard work.
 The Bradshaw mines within the last eight days have developed heretofore unknown amount of valuable ores. On the Tiger, Mr. Helm has struck the ledge with a vein of ore 20 feet in thickness, some of the ore carrying s4,000 to the ton. The California is being prospectcd by Mir. Luther with very satisfactory results. Taking the mining out look, as a whole, throughout the entire county, it never looked so bright as at the present time.

DREAMINGs.-The dreamer thinks that playing go to law is about 'splayed out . The two Peck Companies have each sued each other. Each individual has sued some other member, and still they threaten to sue. The dreamer calls fer costs.-Pay the fiddler when you dance.
 The dreamer is troubled with men who can talk more, and say less than even q talk ing machine.-Never speak unless you have something to say.
 And now comes the dreamer's opinion of the "Old Folks Concert It was the best entertainment ever given in Arizona. Some of the singing was exceptionally good, es- pecially " The Dearest Spot on Earth to me, is Home, Sweet Home; and that other old time song Way down upon the Swanee River, far, far away The Last Rose of Summer " by Mrs. Parker was never better sung; her voice is the sweetest in these mountains.
 The dreamer cannot trust himself to speak of the beautiful and accomplished Miss P, of 'sYe Old folks" for he is smit- ten; suffice 1t to say that, he thinks of her as a bright particular Star" His prayer is God bless 'Ye Old Folks altogether for ye are all good.
 In conclusion, the dreamer leaves this thought with the thinkers. 1t is an his torical fact that the streets of Jerusalem were once kept very clean, and how? Every woman swept carefully in front of her ora door.

LETTER FROM LITTLE COLORADO.

But those things have all past away. we hope, never to return. to modest our now peaceful community; for we can now give each other the friendly hand, and wish each other happy new year, and look forward to the time not far distant when sur country will take its pace with other portions of Arizona in wealth and population. AL though the past troubles of this place may have cast d shadow over our character as a community, we offer homes to emigrants who may wish to cast their lots with us, and assure them protection from an honest class of men who rely only upon their industry for a living. There have been some men with us in the last two months looking for situations Should they be satisfied with this country, and wish 10 engage at once in manual labor, they can be supplied with all they can do. and at living wages, in fencing farms, building houses, etc. am sure any man can do we'll here, except desd beats: we have all we want of these, and If there is any section in want of this class of men, we could even spare some.

 The great distance from the county seat, and poor mail facilities. make very much against this section.

We hope soon to have mail lines established bringing us the news from all parts of the Territory and elsewhere. Respectfully, yours.

Santa Fe, New Mexico, was settled in f555. consequently it is the oldest city in tho United States. Next comes Tucson, in Arizona. which was settled in i50o. by Coronadas army. St. Augustin. Florida, was settled in f565. which ranks third on the list.

The Wealth of Job.

"This man was greatest of all the men ol the East.''-Job, i., 2.
 At this distance of time, supposed to bs 5000 years since he existed, it is difficult te estimate Jobs wealth; but as some items are given it may be attempted, although the relative value of money ut the extremes oi the 5000 years leaves us at loss to calculate the precise amount.
 1. The extent of land he owned may be found from the support his stock needed; 1000 sheep would require range of as many acres; 5000 camels would need five acres each: 1000 yoke of oxen an equal range of five acres with the eamels, 500 asses about two acres each; and his household, which was every great,n 5000; in all, S0, ,000 acres. The value of this amount, at s per acre, si50,000.
 2, The cost os Jobs cGttle--s, ,000 sheep at s each; 5000 camels atprobably $50; 1000 oxen at $l0 each. and 300 asses at the same price. This would equal about Sls5,000.
 g. To tend such vast herds according to the custom of the East, the number of la- borers must have been large, Abraham, contemporary with Job, could muster in his own family retinue SIS trained men at arms. As many more must have remained at home to attend the to his hocks etc, when the patriarch went in pursuit of the invaders of Lots territory. Job may have had 800 their pay and support $2,000.
 4. Tho necessary houses for living and shelter and the folds could not bs less than $s5.000.
 The whole value of the above wonld be $S70,0o0.
 All this wealth seems incredible, wefe It declared so by the of inspiration. At tho close of tins book NC arc told that even this sraount was duplicated, for $740,o0o.
 When we c6mpsEs this with the relative present value of money and that of Job s day. his wealth was enormous.
