MARY DIXON.

A letter received yesterday at TuE Bull
LETlN office, says Miss Dixon will be here
aud give an entertainment as soon as ar
rangements can be made She has just re-
turned from successful tour of the west
ern states. Below we give notice from
the Atchison Champion, one Of the many
that has come under our eyes;
Miss Mary Dixon read last night for a
fourth time before an Atchison audience
and before much the largest one that has
greeted her. All the selections, grave. gay,
Lively and severe were received with favor,
and il was difficult to tell which was best
received The humorous rendltions of
course were greeted with the most
evident tokens Of appreciation, but
the serious produced an effect not the least
real because more quiet. Miss Dixon has
read during the past winter in various
parts Of Kansas in all soyts of weathers,
and before all sorts of audiences, without
the aid Of powerful friends and lavish add
vertising, making her way by her talent.
In the aggregate many Kansas people have
heard her, and all such will testify when
ever or wherever called for, as to the power,
spirit and truth Of her impersDnations. and
will look forward with interest to her future
labors, anu doubtless, success in the east. 60

The Next Apportionment.

A careful study Of the figures of population from the large towns and cities of New York, Pennsylvania, and Illinois warrants the opinion that those States will gain in representa- lion al least three members each, and Illinois probably four, which will place her In advance of Ohio, and third In the list of States. Kansas Is likely to gain four members, and Nebraska two and possibly three. Colorado will gain one member, Texas probably two, and Minnesota two. No South ern State but Texas and Maryland will gain a member, save Missouri, if that can be called a Southern State. Missouri will probably gain two mem brrs, and Iowa one. Michigan will gain al least one member, and Indiana one, with a chance of one for Ohio. New Jersey will also gain two mem bcrs, owing 10 the extraordinary growth of some of her larger towns as Jersey City, Newark, and Camden. The very large increase of population in Prov idence and some other towns of Rhode Island may add another member to the delegation from that State, and Massachusetts may also gain one member, owing to acceSsIons in Boston, Lowell, and a few others of her larger manufacturing towns. No other New England Slale has any prospect ot gain. Vermont will lose one member.
 Of the Pacific States, California is the only one that will gain in repre- seniatiou. She has BOW four mem bers, and will gain at least two, with A chance for q third on a large fraction. San Francisco, now entitled 70 one member, will. in connection with San Mateo and Santa Clara, be entitled to two after 1882. By that time ihe now Territory of Washington will have been admitted as a State, and possibly Arizona also: so that the Pacific States will, under the new apportiUnmcnt, gain probably five members in the House and four in the Senate.-Chron- icie

An Nn,licur Miner

Dr. Schliemann, in d letter to the St. Petersburg Golos, says: II have just returned from Asia Minor, where have at last finished that digging out of Troy which I began in 1870" We had hoped that before he left Troy the Doctor would meet Colonel Fair. If sJ, no doubt the Colonel gave him some valuable advice and information. We have not kept tine run Of Superin- tendent Settlements prospecting Op- eraliOnS, but have our opinion Oi them from bis latest letter Co the head office m which he makes the remark that he found it necessary 10 dig up the ground for more than sixteen yards below the surface Forty eight feet, What a dizzy distancei A COmstOck miner often falls more thar that dis tance on the top of his head and never mentions the circumstance afterward. But ScLliemann Is not too old to learn. He is only little over fifty VIC be- lieve; and Eastern men even older than that often come out to this coast utterly ignorant of mines and return in a week knowing all about them and able 10 give even Mackay hImSeli points. Hence we have hopes for Schliemann, and exp. ct to soon see change in the character of his cores pOL.lence. He will open station at the 4S foot level and drift in four diff ferent directions, nnd will also go deeper. He will eagerly pursue any indications of water SO as tO have some interesting and business like trouble with It. order pumps, spend tive weeks getting in bob, break n pump rod every two days, gain on and lose on the flood alternate months and keep approximation and furn3ce fires up tn the highest point.

Tombstone Mil and Mining Co.

We are in receipt of the " Extra Mining Nnmber of the Daily Graph ic, which contains illustrations 0 mines and mills in California, North Carolina, Nevada, Colorado, Montana, Dakota and Arizona. The Corbin and Gird mills are pictured cut very nearly as they appear, and are fully described, together with q statement of the week y yield of ore, taken from THE CITI- ZEN, and for which the Graphic has given due credit. The property be- longing to the Tombstone and Corbin companies having passed into the hands Ol Eastern capitalists, it was de termined to re organIze under the laws of the State of Connecticut. This was affected at q meeting held at Hart ford, May goth, when the original company WAS merged into the Tomb stone Mill and Mining Company, of Hartford, Connecticut, and board of directors chosen, consisting of George Burnham, Hamilton Disston, B. F. Hart, Charles T. Parry, stephen P. M. Tasker and Thomas Cochran, of Phil adelphia; Marcus Huling, and Willis S. nuling, of Oil City, Pennsylvania ; Phillip Corbin and George 5. Corbin, of New Britain, Connecticut; and Richard Gird, of Arizona, who was also appointed Superintendent and Business Agent of the company. Sub sequently the board elected George Burnham, President; George s. Cor bin, Treasurer; c. s. Durham, Secre- tary; W. J Cheyney, Associate Secre- tary."
 In closing, the Graphic says that |" in view of all that we have learned regarding the Tombstone Mill and Mining Company, and of the fact that their two mills are yielding from S9O,OOO 10 Sl00,000 each month, and that they now have over, and above the $50, QUO which will be paid on the 18th of this month, a very handsome balance in the treasury, we can see no reason why they may not easily make good their promise to pay s50,OOO monthly regularly for an indefinite period"

Tombstone Items. TEro,r ths Enffaph I

Development ou the Contentment mine is most tiattering Tn the west cross-cut on the lO0-foot level, about 5O feet from the shaft, the ore body WAS struck yesterday morning.
 Another important sale of mines WAS cOnS1malcd on Wednesday. The group includes the Buleigh, Terrible, Miners Dream, Reliable and Burfeigh mIll-site, were s"ld by Messrs. $. l.. Stone, James Percy and Hugh Percy to Martin l.. Keith, of Boston, for $30,0OO.
 The Big Blue, belonging to A W. Stowe, r. Morse, Theo. F. White and John Wasson, the shaft, which was started on a stringer, is down twenty eigth feel, and the wOrkmen have just encountered the main ledge in the northwest corner Of the shalt, the orc body being yet undefned ir extent. The ore, which is carbonate, chloride and horn silver, is in porphyry fOrma- lion, and assays SlG9.
 Every step of progress iu the de- velnpment of the Grand Central gives additional evidence of it's richness. During the past week cross-cuI has been driven Sj feet north of the main shaft, showing the ore body to be l3 feet through, the average assay of winch Is Sll3 to the ton. At the 300 foot level a station is being cut out and croSs-cutting is nuw going OF to strike the vein.
 We are informed by Superintendent SFnrVn nf hn Er, h.,e ksa 2O0tOOt level down 10 the bottom of the shaft, the ore has gradually in- creased in quantity and richness, many of th" l--ays made the past week going as gh as Si0O, $500 and $GOO per ton. They are also taking a high grade ore from the north level, some $50 feet north of their working shaft, and at depth of 200 feet.
 This week RamSey's Canyon has had its round with the pistol, result ing in the serious wOunding of Wm. Davis by T. D. George. As nearly as we can learn the particulars, it seems that Davis and George were playing q game of cards for A pistol, which was won by George. Davis conceived the idea that George had cheated in the game, and struck George, whcreupon George seized pistol and fired, the ball striking Davis on the top of the left shoulder and lodging in his neck. The wound on the shoulder is slight, but the shot in the neck is very danger Ous, though it is thought Davis will live. George at once surrendered him- self and was brought to Charleston, where he was put under bonds to await the result of Davis wounds.

Void Isa1di Entries


 Commissioner Williamson, of the General Land Office, has issued a ser { ies of detailed instructions to all Reg isters and Receivers, which prescribe the regulations necessarily for carrying ! into effect the law enacted at the last session of Congress for rcfunding GiI excess payments, ordinary purchase money, fees and commissions on void entries of ! ublic lands The act affects thousands of settlers throughout the Western States and Territories. The first section authorizes the payment tU innocent psriIes of the fees and com
 missions paid by them on entries of fraudulent soldier and sailors afdi
 tinnal homestead scrip, of which very large GuanjiiIes were forged and set ahuat in the Western States some years ago. Commissioner Williamson's inl s,ruciions require thorough proof of the innocence of the ap, licants for relic. under this section. The securd section provides for the repayment of the purchase money and ot fees. com missions and excess payments in all cases where entries Of public lands have been cancelled for conflict" or where for any cause, the entry had
 been enormously allowed by the local land offices and cannot be confirmed; also, for refunding the eytra $l.25 per acre paid by presumption settlers for lands supposed 10 be " double mini mum Hands, with railroad limits. but afterwards discovered tc be outside of such limits, and therefore purchAsable at the ordinary minimum price of $i i25 per acre All these repay ments may be made 10 the party who made the original entry, or to his heirs, executors, or admin. .sirafOrs, or tO the assignee specially authOrlzed Co receive such repayment, but mere conveyance of the land will not be deemed tn carry with it the right tO repayment, unless expressly SD stated in the assignment. Where there has been d conveyance of the land. anu the orIgiaal purchaser applies for repay ment, he must COnclusIyely show that he has Indemnifed his assignee, or per fcC'ed the title in him through another service. Assignces of the title tO the land must show by affidavit or other wise, that they hare not been indcmni- fed by their grhnIurS for the failure of such tile, and that such title has not ben perfected in them by theIr grdnto-s through ano;h saurce. When there is a specific assignment Of the purchase money, evidence of the non-lndemuifcutiOn by the grdntor k not required. In case of desert land entrees, asSignces of the purchase money are the only assigneos recOg- niZed. All applications for repay meRt are tO bc transmitted, together with all papers in the case, to the Commissioner of the General Land Office, through the Registers and Re ceivers of the proper distucIs, who are required 10 make iue report upon each case transmitted, and the money finally found due will be paid out of the 1 treasury upon the warrant of the Sec ! re,ary Uf the Interior.

THE Rev. Sumner Latham was en- gagged al $500 year as pastor of the Baptlst church at East Ware, \. H., but majority of the members were not willing to pay him even that mea- gre salary, and it was voted 10 dismiss him. He intends to sue for the $500 at inc end of the year, and therefore prepares every week two sermons which he carries to the church on Sunday 10 deliver, but always finds the door locked against him.
 TIE gap between the pulpit and the stage is narrowing. Some of the leading clergymen in the hecountry were nresent at the farewell dinner to Edwin Booth in New York, and, recently Ada Monk, the actress, joined the Unitarian church in that city. The pastor, Rev. Robert Collyer, used the occasion to say that there should be no antagonism betwixt church and stage. Miss Monk will remain on the stage.

From Tucson to four miles beyond inc American Flag, and within fif- teen miles of the heavy growth of lumber timber, there is a good freight ing road, beyond which in order to gain access to the timber belt, con- struction would be necessary, the expense ofwhich is vsriously estimated at from STOOD 10 sl3.000 But as the supply is estimated by lumber men who have visited these pineries at from 10.
