4 Curloas Discovery.

Three proSpectors arrived in town early this week from the country bor- dering on the Little Colorado, 1jO miles north of Prescott, bringing with them considerable quantity of ore, which they clam as coming from a ledge in the Ava-Su-pai canyon, inc which they had 10 bc suspended by ropes. They were told Of wonderful cai bOnate deposit that existed in hat canyon by a MOqui chief, who poiier- rd his services ;O sh"w them the lead, and cid so. The 6ero-it iS capped over win nearly lj0 i5et ot limestone, and Nas exposed only blythe c;nyou whlci. cul il, showing a ledge $ feet wide ana horizontal in shape. line irdlca tinns and marks prove cOnclusiyely that ;he Indians have. as the Moqui chief stated, supplied themselves for a great many wears with leud for thel. bullets. The late di-tovcrcrs of thi, limestone capped ledge laid in a good supply of provisions and have return ed to examine more thOrCu@hly into this curious bonanza. Should the Both parallel railroad be built with the rap iditv we think it will, and the new find prove to be as rich as tie discOT erers think it is, we may look for an other Leadville in Arizona, within l5U miles of Prescott, and within 90 miles of the iron highway.-L Miner.

 meaningless now, As with weary eyes and careworn brow Still hoping her grief might be turned

From Gro 6Idnco.

NIT. J. NJ. Kirkpatrick, Superintend ent of the Orion Mining Company came up from the mines on Saturday and will now go over to the Santa Ritas to do some assessment work on property of his own. From Mir Kirk patrick we learn that the Orion Com pany are in possession of some of the best mines in Gro BlancO. On the Alaska the tunnel has been run in a distance of 375 feet and taps the vein at depth of about 400 feet from the croppings. The shaft is down 200 feet and a cut at the bottom has been run twelve feet in ore without reach ing the hanging wall.
 On the Warsaw mine the shaft is 40 feet deep and the bottom all in ore, which consists of gray copper and silver. Three assays made went $65, S925 and $2O0O per ton respectively. Mir. Kirkpatrick estimates about 1000 tons of firstclass ore on the dump, which averages $1l4. Of the second class ore there is about 450 tons, aver aging about SGO, and at least 5000 tons of ore in sight. This is magnificent mine.
 The ledge on the Montana is the largest of any owned by the company. It has a tunnel in on the ledge f0S feet, all in ore, and there is without doubt 10000 tons of ore now measure able on this claim.
 After doing his assessment work Mr. Kirkpatrick will return to Gro Blanco and push the prospecting of these mines to the limit desired by the company.

Aonorn Rnilroad Routes.

Mr ". R. Morley, the Engineer of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Company, left Fort Bowie for the East about a week ago. Or his trip through Sonora he was accompanied by McssrS. Schuyler and Symon, who showed him practicable routes and local resources to his hearts content. MT. Schuyler, who is xeil known as an efficient rail road engineer, informs us that there are feasible routes for railroads in all most any direction through Sonora and abundance of profitable local traffic. Mir. Morley, who speaks Spanish well, lost no opportunity for informing him self thoroughly on all matters of i'm portance to his company, and although his opinion was not asked direct Messrs. Schuyler and Symon believe the favorable conditions of the country were far beyond Mr. Morley's expecta- lions. As we understand the situation now, it only remains for the company to decide whether or not they 1esire Guaymas for terminus.
