HE GOT OUT OF IT

X colored preacher in Florida thus held forth: My brudring, the fsraelites went over the Red Sea on the ice. They got over all right, and dar's de reason why Mo ses sung ob praise. In de morning, when de sun was up hot. Pharaoh and de 'Gyp- tians come wid deir great numbering chari- ois ob iron Dey broke through de ice, and dey all went to de bottom ob de sea.'
 "Stop dere!" exclaimed q nearer. "I want to ask question. I've read geogra phy, and Egypt's hot country. It's un der de tropics. It's near de 'quAtor, a dere ain't no ice dar. How could dey go over on the ice. and dar's no ice darl'
 To which the preacher responded
 I'm glad you asked that question; now can 'splain. That comes of reading g'og- Iaphy instead oO de bible.

HOW TO ACT AND BEHAVE.

Always offer ladies the right arm.
 Ladies do not talk across the street.
 Walk around lady's train; do not step across 1t.
 Much undrrscoring in letter is meaning less and vulgar.
 In lowing the inclination of the head is alone necessary.
 The well bred are free from pretence or su- -perciliousness.
 Nothing IS more vulgar than hnery and jewelry our of place.
 More than three in one family shonld nev- CT accept general invitation.
 A hostess should command silence among her guests during the performance of Music A Gentleman walking with lady returns bow made to her.
 It is the place of the one introduced to make the first remark.
 The custom of sending flowers to funerals is growing in disfavor.
 Don't keep flowers for your friends coffins Give them now.

A UTAH MAN AT MARIcoPA.

A NIT. Savage, of Salt Lake City. who &C., companied the excursionists to Maricops on the I2th inst, writes to the Deseret News as follows:
 Life in Arizona is about as rough as 1t Is possible to imagine The Indians go around nearly naked. The hardy miner IS about as rough as q man can be and live, yet under lying the exterior arc hearts as kind and generous as ever teat in a human breast Some say they have the richest minesi in the world down here, and no one will be sorry if man has a good mine who IS willing to live in such country. The very names that abound here are unique and ndd, if not funny. Iappend few: CanteeD, Bumb.e bee. Horsetank, Centennial, Desert, Tomb stone. Deesirict, Fillibuster, R4whide, Pc catch Caiskin, Picket Pest, etc.
 Ore sees sights here that will be hard to foryet. I witnessed an outfit bound for Tombstone that should be mentioned as one of the original scenes in this delightful piace. Having occasion to spend day at Gila City. Jan old stage station) l saw emerging from a cloud of dust two men oi sinister appearance; they were armed with revolver and bowie knives, slung around them, ana breach-loading rifles, their team consisting of a solitary donkey, hitched to a broken down buggy filled with an assort- tnent of novelties that would be difficult to describe. Hanging by the neck 10 the end of the "yehicle." were three or four empty bottles covered with rags-but alas, fhey were empty, four days ago they held whisky, but in that brief time it had been transferred to their throais, and they had, by inc help of said frewater made fifteen miles in four days. Nothing like whiskey for getting over ground.
 TRe Southern Pacific is now completed and in ranning order to Maricops, 155R miles east of Colorado River. from that paint to Tucson by the nearest survey It IS ss miles and if it does not get too hot 10 handle the rails no doubt the road will go forward to that point.

THE CUMBERLAND.

George NJ. Ciprico, principal owner of the Cumberland mine, Arizona, has bond ed 90 100 to parties representing English capitalists for the sum of $i50,O00, to be paid within sixty days after examiuation of the mine by English experts. The remain ing shares are to be inaccessible, and mean while money obtained from sale of stock IS being devoted to the sinking Shaft No. 2, which IS in rich ore of the highest grade. IL is expected that the mine will be able tn pay dividends by the beginning oi the com ing year. The Cumberland Mining Com pany is consolidation of the Original May flower aud Martinez Mines, a relocation by Henry Wickenburg, the discOverer and fer mer owner of the now famous "Vulture' Mime. The property has recently been ex- perted by Mr Crsib, the mining expert. ~ho furnishes very interesting report, winch is too lengthy for reproduction in these columns, but from which We taxa an extract, as follows:
 The Cumberland Mine is situated in Martlncz inning dis,ricr, Yavapai county, Arizena Territory. The Cumberland is a relocation of the famous Mayfiower and Martinez lode, which caused quite an ex- citernent in the years 1869 aud TO. The vein is gold-bearing quartz lode about eight feet wide, well defined. with walls and gangue, ana is situated in the loot hills on the south side of large granite mountain of the Date Creek range. south and wes. from the mine as far as the eye eau reach is beautiful level country, coy- cred with dense growth of Mesquit and Palo Verde timber and lgrass. East from ,hr mine and distant about one and one half miles is Martinez Creek, and east from said creek about six miles IS the rich placer geld country of Weaver district. where the Great deposit of placer gold was found in 5s63 and where tEe Leyiathan gold mine ;.--supposed to be the largest geld mine ID the Territory, and possibly the largest on inc Coast. There are still sDout fifty min CTS working the piaccIs of the district North of the Cumberland about three miles is the abandoned military post oi Date Creek. South from the mine about eighteen miles distant is the town of Wick enburg. and near 10 it ls the great Vulture mine. portion of which has been sold for a quarter of a million of dollars. The rail road is completed to MarIcopa Wells-a pIace within fifty-f miles of the Cumbcr- land mine. The Military Telegraph line masses within ten miles of this property, and the stages carrying the U. S. mails daily to Prescott pass Camp Date Greek aboat three miles distant. The Cum berland mine trends nearly east and west and dips or pitches 10 the north. The walls and gauge or gangne are well defined, wlti siqAf feef ofsOlm ore iR ths ttia,-Stock he port.

LETTER FROM GEO. W. TYLER.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 23d. 1879
 EDITOR MTNER:-I have just been shown an article in your pap r of Aprl 4th, 1878. headed |" Tom. Fitch canes Tyler" which contains some inaccuracies would like to correct The first are these: The counsel for Smith called the attention of the Court to a paper being circulated in the court room, Of his speech made in the case of the People rs Laura D. Far, with certain edi torial comments upon the difference in the principles enunciated by tho counsel in the two cases. Smiths counsel asked the Court to inquire as to who had done 1t, and to punish the party for contempt. Mir. Neil sou said if contempts were to be inquired into, he wanted the Court to inquire into the action of Mrs. Fitch, who had been to two of the witnesses summoned for the people, and tued to induce them not to give evidence against Smith. Mr. Fitch, who sat ss a spectator, arnse, and said in a loud voice, "that is a lie." l then said to the Court that two of our witnesses had in- formed us that Mrs. Fitch had been to them after they had been subpeaaed, and wanted them not to come and give evidence against Smith. NIr. Fitch again arose, and said athat is lie.n then turned to him, Fitch. and said Do you mean to say that lie when I say two of our witnesses have SO informed usi" He replied, "yes. that Is a lie then said to him "you are liar If you say so." Mr. Fitch then raisen his cane and attempted to strike me, but was too quick for him; took lis cane from hlm, and we had little sousfie. in which was not injured, and as to Mr. Fitch, he can speak for himself
