Concerning .hc route of his road he is very reticent and seems to be very careful in his statements.

N.lc. From Dps Cahtlas.

From MT. A F. Fay. It is learned that the Cincinnati and Pittsburgh company, ;t Dos C.beza-. have theiruew 2Lstamp mill u,sIlv re. dy for operations. While they own several promising mines in that district, they propose to do custom work, and thus offer inducements for poor miners to develop their own prop critics from the proceeds of the ore milled Mr. W. W. Flee is the superin- tCudeLt of rLis company.
 Nir. ". A. NevilIs, superintendent of the Commonwealth compauy's mines, is pushing work as rapidly as possible with the very bcs, prospects of rich re- turns. The Bear Cave mine, upon which Le is concentrating large force, shows large body of ore, and 1t k thought will prove equal to anything in Cuchise county. The outlook for Dos Cabczas is exceedingly bright, and We trust the results will be as satisfactory as the most sanIuine could desire.- .Epit-ph.

REMOVAL or FIFE DEPOSITORY.

One of she effects or the failure of the firm os Lord S Williams is the removal of the Unitel States Depository. An order has been issued for a transfer of the funds Of the Depository from this city to San Francisco, where the basi- ness will be done b. the snb-ireasUry. The U. s. Depository here Vas an anomaly. It was the only instance in the country where a depository vas in the hands of an indi,idual. In all other places it is in National Banks
 This change now is unfortunate, and is likely to produce some strinseney in currency in t5s Territory, until business can adjust itself to the new order of things. Many cheeks are ont on this Depository, which will have Co be sent 5a san Francisco for payment, and there will bc sse delay or transmission of dcaits and return or currency which theloeati3a as the Depository here obvi- atcd.

Ye-y few places CT the size of Tucson, but what have National Banks, and share is no reason why oar business men should not organize such a corporation at once.

\ MOST revoitiuE scene occurred iu the Court-room during the Gu.teau ,ral on Saturday. When tLe portion of the vertebr;a cr the martyred President was being examined, Gmteau became mush interested, and laid down his pape-s. Scoyille took the section of vertebre, and Guitcau immediately reached over, took it himself, and gave 1t a most searching examination. He then leaned over and pointed out the places injured by the ball to Scovile, and handing it back resumed his reading. The sight was au impressive one. The man who had murdered a President Of the United States coolly taking the backbone of his victim into his hand and noting the ef- feet of his deadly aim was a sight prob ably never witnessed before, and cer- tainly one never to be forgotten. 4 whisper ran through the audience. ac- companied by few suppressed yet we'll defined misses.
