The stage Robbers.

4 dispatch from Tombstone yester- day gives the following information regarding the pursuit of the stage rob bers by Detective Paul and party:
 Sheriff John Behan and Williams left Paul, with four others, ct Red fields ranch, about fifty miles down the San Pedro, Saturday morning, at 5 o'clock. They had then captured one of ihe robbers at the ranch. The prisoner was turned oyer to Sheriil Behan, and in order 10 avoid exciting the people and having premature lynchlng. the prisoner was given his arms aud directed to conduct him self as though he was free. Behan and | Williams came on to Benson with their man, and he was Co all appear ances one of the party of pursuers. They propose to take the prisoner Co Tombstone today, but not tO let it get abroad that he is one of the robbers, | for fear of summary vengeance on him. I hey will secure him properly | when they reach Tombstone. Iu the meantime the rest of Paul's party are in hot pursuit Of the other three rob- bers, with good prospects of over- hauling them, their trail being tolera- bly distinct, and they being overcome with fatigue. Williams will leave Tombstone Monday morning with a party Ot mounted men 10 assist in the pursuit and capture of the robbers.
 Since the receipt of the above tele- gram a gentleman just Tn from Will cox states that it Is the general i'm pressiOn there that the supposed confederate in charge oi Sheriff Be han is not one of the party concerned in the murder aud attempted stage robbery, but tbat he is cOgniZant O their whereabouts and intentions, anC is taken away 10 remove him Iron improper influence. It is also sus pected that the officers are on wrong scent, and the real culprits are nov about the streets of Wilcox unrecog UiZed

Our Weekly Mining Review

NEW YORK. March l2.-Nothing
 unusual importance has occurred az
 the mining boards during the week
 iost closed. The market has seemed
 tn be in Go waiting condition,
 fluctuations from day to day have
 been light. and prices on the whole
 have been irregular, some ot the
 stocks showing slight declines and others slight advances over the clos
 Ing prices last week The sales at
 both exchanges are officially reported
 at 1gO.g3S shares for the week. AL
 thousb the business of the week has
 been unsatisfactory 1t has been con clusiyely shown that the outside
 public is very largely interested m in mining stocks, aud out~ide buyers
 manifest willingness Co take hold
 whenever there Is a probability oI an improvement in mining property or when the bears m certain stocks show a disposition tO stop hammer ing down prices. IL is highly prOba- ble that at the present tune Inc min inc stocks dcalt in at the New York boards are more widely scattered among the general public than at ar y time: and the indication Co invest in
 this class Of property needs only to be encouraged by the knowledge that promising indication in certain mines have become valuable developments, ! tO increase the speculation Gt the eX- changes into a vigorous boom.
 Leadyille stocks have again been very active, and, aS usual, during the ! last few weeks Hibernia heads the | list in the point of shares sold, 11G,- gj0 shares having been traded m from | G1c to 1lc, with a subsequent decline
 tO G3c, al which price it closed. It is | probable that the parties who engl- ! neered the late deal and succeeded in working of large quaruties at from | S1. 4J Co 70 cents will now change
 their base and start & bull movement ! in the stock. This rests in their ! power, as the chief officer of The com pauy is generally credited with having ! been at the head of the late movement and as dividends can be declared | which have not been earned, and | false statements can 0s well be made | by officers 10 assist bull movement. | a- they were made tO enable the in siders to unload their stock upon a too | credul0us public.

The Gnnxmas Road.

We are indebted to gentleman who has just arrived from HeTmoslllo for the following information as to the progress being made in the con- structiou of the Guaymas railroad:
 The track is laid about 40 miles ncrth Of Guaymas; the road bed is graded to Hermosillo with the excep- ton of about three miles; the main road runs about two miles easterly from that place, but branch will be extended 10 the corporate limits of the town.
 Everything is moving smoothly un- der the management of the Superin- dent, E. E. Robinson, a man ol much experience in railroad building. He has imported a corps of negro track layers from New Orleans, believing that they are better able to withstand the heat during the hot weather than white men. There are about 400 1aqdi Italians employed in grading the road bed at $I per day but the force will be doubled as soon as the locating en- giheer gets the profiles ready for the northern division. The route will be northeaSterly to a point some forty miles west of Fl Paso, where IL will ioin the American branch of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe road, which will extend south from the junction to meet the former at the American line. There are two corps of engineers in the field making pre- liminary surveys, followed by an- other, which permanently locate the road. The route from Hermosilio is mountainous and very rough. and it requires considerable engineering skill 10 secure practicable route. Walter simon, the right of way agent, has amicably settled all ob structiOns in securing the right oi way, by paying the dissatisfied parties their price for the land taken and the growing crops destroyed; no fur ther trouble is anticipated m securing right of way
 The depot grounds at Hermosillc have been selected near that town al a point which gives entire satisfaction to the Mexican citizens.
 W. F. Morley, chief engineer iu charge, recently rendered his resigna- ton to the company, but il was no accepted, and after mature delibeTa- ton he has decided to remain on tho Mexican division. The employees o the road recently presented MT. Mor | ley with handsome gold watch as testimonial of their high regard O. him as faithful and efficient officer. The road will now be extended nOrtl as rapidly as possible. There will b' mo further delay unless, perhaps, | may be in ties; there is an abundance of steel rails on hand and atioat iron England to complete all that it vii be possible to lay during the presen ! season.

The Latest I,issine Game.
New York Times.

New urE Iut1s-
 X Paris correspondent gives this account of a pretty game of cards now fashionable in that city: ''The participants were young ladies and gentlemen, who sat in equal numbers on either side of the table. The cards were dealt Co each, and one hand, as in euchre, settled the wager. The wager played for in this game IS that the lady or gentleman who gets the ace of hearts and can take q trick with it, or beat lt with another card, has the option Co kiss any lady or gen tlemau he or she may select. If a lady is the winner of the successful trick this option may be used or not as she elects, and generally she does waive her right; but if 8 gentleman holds the lucky card, Of course he in- yariably exercises his right. The re- suit was that 8 gentleman, when he held the ace Of hearts, was sure tO get it passed; if a laGy held it she almost always had it taken. It was quite a study to watch with what perfect sang frOid the gentleman stood up Go re- ceive the stake lac ha q won, nd with what cOnsUmmate grace the lady bent her head Co one side SO that her lucky opponent across inc table should re- ceive his full pound oi flesh; not to mention the utter indifference of both tO the presence Of friends or strangers sitting around. l do not know how the players felt, but the watching of a few hands played was sufficient Co satisfy me that it was but poor game after all. How it came about l do not know, but I saw one gentleman win six games in rapid succession and kiss the same lady many times. That destroyed all the interest l had mp to that point taken in the game. it sat isfied me that it was a game in which the cards could be so manipulated that a poor player ora beginner could have very little chance
