ACCIDENT TO Mr.. NJ. w. WALLACE.-We are
sorry to learn from the Charlottes Vile Ctron-
icle that Mr.. NJ. W. Wallace, who recently re-
moved from Albemarle to take charge of the
Healing Springsin Bath county, had the mis-
iortune. week before last, to have his arm and
two ribs broken by a fall from ox-cart.-
Though Mr.. Wallace Is blind he is good and
successful business man. He has been mer-
chant for years and is good judge of goods
He was educated at the D. d. & B. Institution OF
this place. and, we believe, was pupil at the
irst session after its establishment. He is a
man of intelligence, enterprise. and good char
acter, and we hore that he will soon recover
from his injuries, and that he may be success
full in the management of the Healing Springs.

Encouraging news comes from the Silver District Yuma county.
 Rev. F. s. Crawford has been com missioned for the Presbyterian Church at Prescott.
 S1rer Belt: The Stonewall mill elthoug gh running but five hours ou- of the 24 in consequence of the scar city of water. IS turning out bullion the rate of S200 per huu-. We tAink it will not be long before full supply of water will be obtained and as the ore is abundant, the mill will then run on full tune
 ERtvprise: The different saw mil: Tn the vicinity of Prescott are ali running on full time G. ". Curtis mill yesterday forenoon turned out 1000 feet plumber. Messrs. Parker west of Prescott, have their saws al work. and Clark & Adams have re ceived a new shinglc machine which they will put in operation at .theiI mill
 Enterprise. The City Assessor IS about through with assessing the property in Prescott for tho present year. The roll will foot up about the same as last year, but the rates are lower and the levy will be. The town is out of debt with $2.000 cash on hand The income from licenses pays all running expenses.
 Nlner. Probably the largest and richest copper mine in the world. ex- ists in 9avapai couty. Bring your raiIroads in Mr Canitalist and we will load all your trains daily with ore that contains 70 per cent of the pure metal We know whereof VIC speak, and this same mine will, wht . properly opened astopish the world Just think of a solid wall IS feet wide a mile long. and reaching down as far as the roots of the grand cid mountains built of copper

It has been purchased by Barney F Conolley, acting for Eugene L. Sullivan & Co. San Fran cisco Mir Marshall states that the value oi this grant can scarcely be over estimated. Large bodies of tim Der are scattered over its surface. while streams of running water flowing from springs of living fresh ness traverse its valleys and plains It also contains several rich mines of gold and silver.

One of the greatest drawbacks to q new mining country, seeking devel- opment, is the manner by which own CTS try to control the mine and freeze out their co-partners. There arc q great many eases in which man has lost his all through the corri- vance of those who wish to get rid of him, but there are Courts estab- lisesd for re, flying these differences, and any other course is lawA ssresf. |. We are led to these remarks by the Peck troubles in Yavapai count
 This mine bears good reputation all over lthe country, as being a very rich one. Of its richness 1t cannot be doubted. Just at the time when its brightest hopes were about being realized, complication of troubles arise. the mine property taken and held by force of arms. even SD far as to prevent the legal officers of the county obeying the manda es of the law; the mine Is shut down, thereby, hinderiag its development. What Is the result of this taking possession of a mine by force of arms? It cas T dark shadow not only over the mine ID dispute. but over the Territory at large To develop mining property capital is required, and men of means and energy arc invited t" invest, brt when lawlessness takes precedence over judicial power, capitalists are timid about putting capital in such a country. those who contemplate visiting the Territory are reluctant about coming. and spirit of uncer- tainry prevails. The mine alluded to will in all probability be shut down for u1onths. it's development will lie dormant, its silvery stream of bullion will be stopped-all on account of differences that could be adjusted without this show of i'll gained owe. The resources of our Territc " are spoken of all over c--- broad land, machinery is now being brought to develop mines that have lain idle for years, new life has been infused in the miner and prospector. and a brighter look has been given the whole Territory Will not this re- vert back, if differences between own CTS cannot be settled by legal meas ures instead of force
