The purchase of the Sunset mine by Messrs Hall and Say was closed Thurs day morning. Mir. Say came from Oil City, Pa, for the purpose of making an examination of the property for parties who in connection with himself, propose 1o take considerable of interest in Arizona if he deems the outlook favorable.

(FroDa the AI'izonan.)

c. c. Bean has received from the Pres. cotl Mining Company, Of New York, the moaey to pay for the remaining two-thirds interest in the Eastern Slope mine, in Bradshaw district. One-third Of this mine Was purchased and paid for some time since by the Company.
 THE VERDICT IN THE HICKEY CAsE.- Both MT. Hickey and the Tiger Mining Company have made motions for iud.- Hent, respectively, upon the basis of the answers made by the jury to the 29 ques- tions propounded to them. The court has ordered all proceedings stayed in the case until these motions can be determined. As near as we can get at the points in dispnt', Hickey claimed that the ma hin cry Was defective, that the engineer was incompetent, and that the accident was the result both of defective machinery and want or competency on the part of tue engineer. The jury found that the machirc y was not defective, but perfect; that the engineer was not unskilful, but competent; and that the Tiger Company exercised due care m selecting the engi- neer. The jury found that the en. gineer although generally competent, was negligent on the occasion of the accident and that Hickey, by the accident, Was damaged in the sum of zen thusand dol lars.
 llickey's counsel clalmed that the engi- nerr was under the control of the Tiger Go. at time of acciaent, and c0uhScl for Tig r Company charmed that the engineer was under the control of McAul: fl IS Miller. Upon this issue the jury found that the engineer was uEdtr the control of the Tiger Company generally. but they also rpund that McAuiiff & Miller controlled the selection of the engineer and had the right to require the Tiger Company to discharge him and elap'oy such oth r person in his place as might be selected ny McAulitf & Miller.
 Upon the legal application of this last fact, (as we are inrormed) rests inc oues- tion whether any judgment c,,tl be entered
 against the Tiger Comp,ny for the sl0O0) damages which the jury foun,.r ickey had sustained, and the decision ofJ dge Silent thereon wIll be awaited with iu ;rest.

Railroad Slaves.

l Tn a very pleasant letter in the Baltimore "Sun," q currespOn- dent has this 70 say concerning our Railroad Kings (slaves) which it were well for our readers to carefully peru~e and think over; there are more serious. truths in the little paragraph than are seen generally grouped together:
 The Central Pacific RailrO 1d Company offers food for rt lection It Is owned by three men. Orig inaIly there were five; two died in the harness without realizing enjoyment. One built d twn- million palace, and before it wa, quite ready for occupancy he died. Two others are living in similar palaces. The three sur vivors are worth millions and have enormous revenues. they are not in any sense money wOr- shippers. There is not a niggard fibre in their compositions. Yet they are slaves. Their life is de- voted to labor of brain, and their ambition is to court and conquer more work. Not d dollar is at rest. Every dime they get and evey dollar they can borrow is devoted to expanding enterprises to enrich California. Never did capital so laviShly endnw d Staie and so little provide recOmpenSr for its own enjoyment. Rich on paper poor in variety. Theory infers that great must be the pub lie appreciation of such self-sacri- fees. Nay'tis all the other way The press, the merchants and the hoodlums. each and all are loud rnonthed in their denunciati6ifs of "the grasping monopoly" Every little regulation is oppreS- slve, and now, under the new constitution they seek to take the cOntrOll of the road from its own CTS and give it to political com mission $. The vitality of the State is derived from the railway
 Butts benefits are ignored and its little errors exaggerated, a. though republics are ungrateful'' always. Oh the 3d of September next the commissioner will bp elected and the railway will practically be under adverse con trol. Let it be understood that besides their great overland road and its many branches, these three men are making d parallel railway 400 miles south, through Arizona, of which 70 miles are now in use. Their chain of life is shortened greatly, and possibly overwOrk may cut is shorter, as all wolk and n play is apt to do. Good deeds, the prOverb says, bring their own reward. But these men of giant enterprise and benefaction have small prospect for remuneration this side their sarcophagi.

In the suit brought by Mrs. Phelps
against the Pacific Mail company's steam
er City of Panama, for damages for seri-
ons Injury received by falling through the
hatchway of that steamer, appealed from
the supreme court oil this territory, JUS
tice Clifford; IN the U. ). Supreme court,
has affirmed the prior decree tor plaintiff,
with costs and interest thereon until paid.
This case Is no doubt remembered by a
number Of our citizens. On the 18th oi
January. 1876, Mrs, Phelps, being on
board the city of Panama while lying at
Seattle, as a passenger on her way to
San Francisco, fell through a hatchway
into the lower hold OF the steamer, and
sustained very serious injuries. A suit
was brought before Judge Lewis in the
third district court tor damages against
the company, and tile SUN of $4,000 was
awarded to Mrs. Phelps. Against this de-
cision both parties appealed to the su-
preule court Of the tcrrtory--the lbellant
claiming That the damages wore too small
and the repondent on questions Of law.
The case came up before that tribunal IN
June, ls77, and Judge Greene delivered
the opinion OF the court awarding dama-
ges for SIS, 900. This decision, as will be
noticed above. has been sustained by the

TnE genera! conference of the NJ.
E. Church, just assembled, has voted
TO discontinue a subsidy to the Z. G..
"Advocate" of Portland. This &C

AT the mass meeting last evening
it was unanimously resolved that the
Fourth of July be celebrated this
wear in Port Townsend. A commit
tee, consisting OF Messrs. J. J. Hunt,
ID. G. II. Rorbschild, S. Waterman,
T. Hammond and w. Dodd, was az
pointed to solicit subscriptions--the
committee to report on Saturday
next, at 2, P. NJ. We hope to see IA
successful celebration.
THE presidential question is prob.
ably settled by the action OF Illinois
in pronouncing for Grant, giving him
an undoubtedly superior strength
over ali other candidates and posi-
bly, enough to nominate him trium
phantly in the convention on the
first ballot. Great excitement how
ever prevails already in Chicago.
Delegates from all parts Of the coun'
try are gathering at that point, and
grand demonstrations are being got
ten up by both the Grant and Blaine
men. The latter feel very hopeful,
it is said, and are quite active. While
Blaine is our choice, we confess tina,
the honor will most likely fall upon
Grants shoulders.
THE Portland "Bee" takes excep.
tions to our argument in favor of To-
eating the coming navy yard on Pu--
get Sound, and sarcastically asks:
"Why not locate it entirely under
British protection ?" lnasmuch as
the United States has, during The
last twenty years, extended her do
minions considerably north of Puge,
Sound, and inasmuch as she is likely
60 grow more in that direction, we
fail to see the point attempted to be
raised by limiting that the navy yard
would be too near in q corner If To-
Gated here. When our Oregon
neighbors can show stronger reasons
for locating at some point in their
State than can be produced in favor
of Puget Sound, we will raise the
white feather, but not before.
