PICKET POSI-.
Milling Matters From this Mining
 Town.

lCORREsPONDENCE OF THE HERALD l
 PICKET PosT, May II, 1S79
 We have been anxiouslv glancinc over your columns to sec communi- cations from some of the knowing ones of the post, but without being z grsiified. 1t is not necessary to state to you that the Pinal mill hurne d and it's ashes scattere ed to the four winds by the gentle zcphers which occasionally visit this locality Now comes the news from the Globe that the Miami mill has been re duccd tO ashes. The '76 mill has been standing idle for about two months, and Mir FOrman has re moved his family to California; he is now on his way to Picket Post again. Having purchased the above property he is bringing with him pans, and etc, and proposes to re sume operations. We are not advis- ed as to whether he will work King ore or depend upon the surrounding {. prospects for material to work upon
 The Little mill'' has also been idle for several weeks, and Mr Stone Gone of the proprietors) has gone soutl,ward on a prospecting tour Whether or not said mill will be set in motion in it's present locality we are unable to say. You will see from the foregoing that our recently flour isLiog camp now depends upon the ten stamps engaged in crushing King ore
 Our chief circulating medium is King orders" We notice a slight decline in some lines of goods as the iron-horse advances; but old prices die hard. While the American pop Hlation at the post has recently been or tie decrease, there has been no ticable increase of Mcxicans. Solon Mason has gone east. Arnett, Wiley < Gray have gone to Globe to devel- op their mine- Work has recently | been suspended on the Eureka Guindana & Co. are fitting up feed and livery stable
 Now, Mir Editor believe 1 have given you all the news of .Aoment, and as we still have confidence in the future of this camp, we hope, in o,Tr next to record great advancement, ill Silswcr 10 great expectations"
