I1OrIri on Influence.

There is something wrong in Inc man
 ner Tn which the Government deals with the Mormon question, and something strange in the great influence the Nor
 mons seem to bear on the Administration Utah is only Q Territory, represented by one delegate in Congress--George o Cannon, Mormon-and that one dcletate has always been able to exercise more in.
 iuerce at Washington in behalf of his Church than many Congressmen are able to bring to bear to secure the establish. ment of postoffice in country village A notorious polygamlst, like Cannon, who Slories in the practice, should not be allowed to hold seat in Congress to be. gin with; but when we find him, on be. half Of polygsmy, interfering with the execution of the laws and securing elem. ency for Mormon polygamists that would not be shown to Gentle bigamists, the thing begins to look suspicious.
 Reynolds, convicted polygamist was sentenced to the Nebraska penitentiary, 1t being the custom of tue Government to couine United States convicts in the different State penitentiaries. He was removed to that institution. aRd now through the efforts of Cannon he Is returned to Utah and given little prison all to himself. He is to be con- fined ia an adobe. building about four mics from Salt Lake, where he is to be accorded ample opportunities at frequent intervals to see his wives and families. This proceeding is simply ridiculous and is only calculated to bring the Govern ment still further in contempt of the Mormons, who will believe that Cannon can coax or frighten it into doing any thing tie MormOns want. The imprison- meht contemplated for Reynolds is no imprisonment at all; it is a mere iaree aud trifing with justice i@s"ek Heporf

The Gazette" takes pleasure in announcing that about noon J lily 1st. the track laying on the New Mexico 6 Southern Pacific Railroad was completed to Las Vegas and the locmotive ran into the ground setapart for the depot.
 The contractors had been rush. ing the road forward rapidly fer some weeks past, but still there were many who proph esled that they would not reach town by July 4th. The contractors said they would and buckled down 10 work. The men were to be d0- mated 5000 extra if the track WAS laid to town by July 3d.
 Last Friday the engine made it's appearance on the top of the nine mile hill and orept slowly down the Arroyo Pecos towards town. Sunday, rails were handled red hot, and Monday work was run into night with three more miles added 10 the extension. Tuesday at 1 o'clock, tke steam horse careered along the fiat op- posite town. That settles it, we have 8 railroad and bread gauge connection with all the world.

A Little Dear.

 The above fossil was once at San Car los as ''chief of scouts," or some such title. The first time he started for Ari- zona his orders directed him to take steamer at Yuma to within 90 miles of the agency, where he would find a stage line to carry him through, and because such transportation was not found st Yuma, be fell back on Los Angeles, and made the trip to the agency Seeing the Gge to which this fossil be- longed and its uselessness with live Tndi- ans, agent Hart refused, according to report, to put it on the payroll, but was compelled to do it by an or der from superior authority. Agent Hart could stand good deal, but after q com paratively brief endurance of said fossil, l he gave il ! 5ummafy ticket of leave and !

Silver Mining in Chihuahua,

 ous causes, until very recently
 the energies of Americans have
 not been directed to that rich
 region.
 But thanks to American enter.
 prise, that land is destined soor 1 to pour into the United States
 the wealth which Q century ago
 glutted the ayarice of the naughty ! Spaniard.
 There are Tow in the State 0t Chihuahua at work, and organized for work, no less than six Ameri- can companies, owning and con- trolling the richest and best of the mining property ill the State. A brief mention of these is all that will be attempted at this time. The Santa Eulalil Mining Company owns the mines of San ta Eulaiia, sixteen miles from the city of Chihuahua.
 Under the rule of Spain, these mines paid to the Catholic church tax on 1I1,O00,0OO.
 They are, without doubt, the most extensive deposit mines in the world. But for want of capi- tai, they are still being worked by the ancient methods of the Mex jeans. The company propose to tunnel the mountain, build rail road twelve miles to the forks of ' the Sacramento and Chihuahua rivers, and there establish large works for the reduction of the ores by modern methods. The Cusiquiriachic mines were pur- chased last fall by company from Sau Francisco for the com parativeIy uiflingsum of $500, 900. These mines are ninety miles south west from the city of Chi huahua. The records do not show their former wealth, but it is known to have been great The veins are true Assures, con- taining at the depth Of 600 feet solid metal, in some places fifteen feet wide, averaging nearly $lOO per ton. The ores are now being reduced hy the liXiviation process with excellent results. The Bat Opilas mines, in the southwest part of the State, owned and 0pe- rated by Wells, Fargo & Co., con- tain large deposits Of native sil- yer, and are enriching their own CTS. The records show that un- der Spanish rule the~e mines produced s40O,OC0,0O0. The con- solidated mines of ParraI, owned by the Knotts Company of Chi cago, are situated in the city of Hidalgo or Parral. The records show that these mines have pro- duced $60.000, GOO. They are true Assure veins, ,aggregatingin length ihree-fouIths Of a mile, with 2 width of from six to thirty feet The last six years working by the Mezicans yielded over 59O0,C00, the ore averaging S8l per ton.
 These tnines have only been worked to depth of little more than 400 feet.
 They OWE, in connection with these mines, at least 500,00O tons of cast.away ores, which avera- ge S2O per ton, much of it yield ing S70 per ton.
 For want of capital, these mines are still worked by the an- cient methods of the MeXicans. But the company now has at the n <,f rt1r r,.Irl

A Lost Child.
 HOLLY BEND TowNsHIP,l


 On the 12th inst, our neighborhood was called to assemble at the house of Mir. R. O. Morton for the purpose of searching tor his little child about two years of age, who in company with a little shepherd dog had rambled into the woods. The north, east and west was almost an entire wilderness for miles. The child had been missing about one hour when the hunt was commenced. The roads, branches, and every imaginary spot was closely in- spected, to see if a track or trace could be found, but in vain. He had chosen course leading him through dense forest, and had he not been checked would have been on the bank of a large lake where he might have hid forever. After search of four hours, the little wanderers were found about Ila miles from home. They appeared to be as well satisfied with their condi- ton, as if they had been at home. The child was placed on horse, in his fathers arms, soon once more to be embraced by his mother. Oh, how the heart of that mother must have leaped for joy when the signal gun was fired .
