 WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. F, 1878. Hon. Joha J. Gosper, Secretary Ari
 zo7aa Territory:
 DEAR SIR-Your favor of the 1ttl instant at hand and contents have OUT immediate attention. We autho ize you to say to the people O Ari zona that we will do our utmost il. rhe way of furnishing good, comfort able and speedy facilities for stag, travelling to and from all points wher, our stages run.
 We have been at grcat expense and trouble getting the mails started on new routes awarded our firm al the last general mail letting, and generally buying the stock and ve hicles-from the former contractors we necessarily get large amount of worthless rolling stock and animals which prove a great detriment to Us
 In arranging our new mail service embracing, as it does, routes in every Western State and Territory, we could not tell what was really want ed to do tlIe business-what kind of rolling stock and amount for the diff fercnt localities. We intend putting the Arizona service in a little better shape than any we haze, as we think Arizona will justify Us in so doing, and have already ordered from Ab- bolt, Downing & Co.. Concord, \. H., coaches specially adapted for your country.
 In regard 10 the completion of the Southern Pacific Railroad 10 Marico- pa Wells. do you not think it the most desirable route for mail matter, etc, via PheniX and Wickcnhurgh, for Prescott and Northern Arizona, and would you please sign the in closed letter officially and return to us?
 If the people of Arizona will have a little patience with Us, they will be amply repaid. Yours, very respect fully, VI. SALISBURY.

The Los Angeles HeY1ld reports the following as the latest in well-boring in that county: We are informed that on Wednesday MT Putncy, who has been boricg for water on portion of the Verdugo or San Rafael rancho, belonging to A. Glassels, obtained. at depth of eighty feet, an inch and a half steady flow of water above the surface of seven-inch pipe. On ex- perimenting, the water readily rose eighteen feet above the level of the ground without any apparent diminu- ton in its value, flowing over at that height. The well is situated in q val. Icy among the hills, about one and one-half miles northerly from the Los Angeles river. The water from the well, together with the united water from number ofneighboring springs. flows into a natural reservoir which M-: Glassel had formed by throwing up a dam across a deep ravine. From this reservoir, which is tapped by a cast-iron water gate and pipe, the water IS conducted on lands below. or may be poured at will into the cast side ditch of the city. We understand that Mir. Glassell contemplates boring one or two more wells in the same neighborhood, where the prospects for water arc equally as good as at the site of the present well.
