 There Is to be spelling match at the school house, Miller Valley, on the 25th, and the teacher, Mir. Windes, invites the citizens of Prescott 10 be present. Also, on the same daJ. the examination of the school children who have been in attendance dur ing the term at that institution will come of. All are cordially invited dnring tbe dsy exercises and at the spelling match.
 An intelligent citizen, to-day, advanced the opinion that the flags and buntngs sus- pended from our several business houses, were in honor of the Democratic soiree this evening, but upon close inspection changed hIs mind. as he counted the g or 30 ban ners and that they were, in every instance, suspended from the doors and buildings of good, stauneh Republicans. Surely the goat is dead.
 Alfred Shupp of Skull Valley, than whom this county has DO better or more upright citizen, came up last evening from his home and was also accompanied by lady of the same valley. Both of these parties are single and it looks little suspicious to see our friend Shupp in broad cloth. How ever, we spprehend there is nothing serious in all this, if SO we will promise to furnish the music for the jubilee. Coop YfELD.-Mr. l.. Wollenburg pur- chaied i3 tons of copper ore from the mine of Messrs. Head & Richards, Black Hills, took the same to the Agua Fria shelter, had it reduced, when To and behold, it was found to yield over 50 per cent copper with $50 per tol in silver. This copper mat goes to Baltimore. With railroads to the doors Of mInes there is no possi sle way of caIcu- lsting at present, the future wealth of our mineral deposits.

Good News From Tonto Basin.

MT. s. Hill, who returned from TontC Basln on Thursday of this week, after closely examining the various mineral lodges in that section, reports to us es follows:
 The Zulu, promising property, Ina: received considerable attention, and has 6 shaft G feet deep, the mine showing 6 ledge well defined feet wide This prop erty ranks as frst-class, and will, no doubt pass into the hands of parties who will make it pay lively dividends.
 The "HOuse 6 Rouse mine has beer bonded to Eastern men, and more than or dinary activity is going on in consequence
 Dud Moreland, the veteran prospectGr, ir company with St. Johns, has found mel strata of gold quartz, which, it is believed will prove very valuable.
 The "Oseola," owned by Snow tS Bacon shows four feet of good ore, which tht owners are working in rastra.
 Boyd S DOngherty, who own severa promising mines, have arranged to sink 100 foot shafts on each, which will give fail idea of what they have.
 The "Golden Wonder" owned by NIT Nash, is yielding ore which pays, by tho rastra process, $l0O to the ton.
 Judge Porter has bonded and located several mines in the Basin, which he pro. poses putting on the New Yorket market with view of selling.
 Taking everything in conjunction, MT Hill thinks the future of Tonto Basin is flattering.

THE GROOM CREEK MINES.

Notwithstanding their close proximity to Prescott, the easy means of access, the i'm mense forests of timber in which they are situated. the abundant supply of running water in the immediate neigh5orhood, the immense number and extraordinary size and richness of the lodges, both in gold and silver, aad the very favorable location of the mines for advantageous working, the GroOms Creek mines are still comparatively unknown aLd unappreciated.
 A representative of the MINER who, though not an expert, has had some eSperi- ence in mining matters, visited Groom Creek yesterday, and was astonished to sec so much good ore, so near tho town, at traeting so little attention, while the re- mote and inaccessible fastnesses of barren, dry, and comparatively unproductive moun- tains are being minutely examined anu at- tracing the attention of capitalists.
 Distance is said to lena entertainment, and it seems to be especially true of pros- pecting. If the claims of Kelly, Hutchins, Behm, Vanderbilt, Keys, Curtis and other, on Groom's Creek, were situated in some far of, treeleSs, verdureless, moistureless, precipitous mountain canyon, surrounded by hundreds of miles of arid desert sand, they would no doubt attract capital and per- haps lure prospectOrs to starvation, or to famish in attempts to reach it. Groom ol.~ ,n;n possibilities is, at this season of the year, the flower garden of Arizona. The stream is lined with bright and beautiful blossoms of almost every hue, flanked by rich luxuri- ant grasses, and shaded by co.tonwoods. box elders, walnuts, naples, alders, wild lOcusts and other Towering undergrowth, while the adjacent hills and mountains are covered with stately pine, fir and spruce timber in such abundance as to be practically inex- haustable for all the purposes for which miners use timber These, Tn addition to their practical use, add to the beauty of the place, and render it still more attractive as place of residence for mining men. The water is cold, pure and sweet as ever ran from mountain springs, and is found Tn such abundance contiguous to a thousand vine. covered grottos, that there could be no pleasanter place found oL Gods green earth for picnic parties or pleasure seekers to camp during the warm weather in summer. The time is not far distant when Groom Creek will be the leading gold and silver mining camp in Arizona.
 Gov. Powers, recognizing the situation, has small force of men developing the Lone Star mine, and Messrs. Burmister < Smith are taking hold of other properties in the district. all of winch are showing splesdidly- We shall keep an eye on Groom Creek, and from time to time note its progress.

For Territorial Superintendent of Schools

We understand that the present incum bent, Prof. NJ. II. Sherman, has consented. at the earnest solicitation of friends in vari- ous parts of the Territory, to become can- didate for election 10 the office, which he DOW holds by appointment. Mir. Sherman, though decided Republican, has devoted his whole life 10 educational affairs rather than 10 partIzan politics, and in the administration of the important duties per taining to hIs office, or in the school room, as teacher, has never even been suspect ed of using his position for pSrtizan ends.
 School officers, next to the Judiciary, should 5e free from political or religious bigotry Ur prejudice, just men or women, as the case may be, with fine discriminating sense of right, entirely impartial in their decisions, thorough in their profession and at the same time persons of sufficient strength of mind to entertain decided opin- ions of their own on these and all other important questions.
 Such man is NJ. H. Sherman, and a recognition of these qualities has influenced a number of his friends, of both political parties, who are interested in educational affairs in the various counties of the Terri tory. to request him to allow his name to be used for the office in the coming election.

Decay of the Teeth.

Arises from various causes, but principally it may be attributed to early neglect or the pastes, which give momentary whiteness to the teeth while they corrode the enamel. The timely use of that delicate aromatic tooth wash. Fragrant SoZODOST, will speedily arrest the progress Of decay, harden the gums, and impsrt delightful fragrance to the breath. It removes those ravages W which people sustain in their teeth from the use of sweet and acid articles. m20
