MINES AND MINING.

Although oft alluded to, the Silver Belt mine. in Big Bug district, continues to force itself on the public by its many good quail ties. It is property of which any mining country would feel proud. Our liking for it is great. Taken in hand by it's present own CTS, few years ago, when it appeared no more than baby vein, it has undergone re- search until, to-day, it Is a ten-foot vein of rich silver bearing ore. Too much praise cannot be lavished on its principal owners, D. c. Thorne and W. W. Hutchinson, of Prescott, who have, without much ready means, opened it to good depth, made it pay its way, and are now making it do much better. It is one our best developed mines. There are, now, at the smelter, which stands on the south bank of the Agua Fria, 10000 fts of base silver bullion and 4, 4,000 fts of fine silver bullion, all worth in the neigh borhood of s20, 900, of which was smelted from Silver Belt ore by the brat of a fur mace in the short space of of 20 days. With the right kind of reduction works any per son can understand what yield of treasure this mine would give.
 The next good news Is that Stokes & Co.,, owners of good mines in Big Bug district, have purchased 4O-ton smelter, which is enrouts to Big Bug.
 Some of the machinery for the Tuscumbia mill, Turkey Creek district, is already on the ground. The remainder is enroute from the railroad Mr. Jas. Nice, is the projector of this mill.
 It is said that large mining scheme will soon be consummated for Walker district.
 It is positively asserted that Messrs. Car penter and Wilson have sold their valuable silver and copper bearing mine to New York City people for a good price. This mine IS in the foothills of the 6rst mountain range east of the Agua Fria, about 40 miles east of Prescott. We congratulate the lucky pur- ehasers- Had it not been for want of ready meansto work themine, Messrx c. & W. would net have parted with it.
 Mr. D. Grubb, of Hassaysmpa Greek, 12 miles south of Prescott, informs us that placer miners are doing we'll there, extract ing gold from creek gravel. He also gives good and favorable accounts of quartz mining and prospecting.
 The placer miners who are at work short distance above Prescott, in Granite Creek, are capturing a great deal of gold
 In connection with this mining question, we wish to urge upon owners of undeveloped properties, the urgent necessity of speedy, workmanlike opening of mines, so that cap italists and agents, who are now coming here. may be enabled to see good share oi our hidden treasures.

Co., BARNEY VNDIcATED.-The numer- ous Arlzona friends and admirers of the above named gentleman will be pleased with the following:
 SAN FRANCISCO, March 26.-Judge Rix, in the Superior Court, to-day, dismissed the charge of perjury against James NJ. Barney, brought by c. H. Swain. The Judges de- cision was to the effect that even if Barney had sworn to the statement that he was a resident of California, on the bond of Mrs. Reagan. it was done without criminal intent, and was no doubt the result of a blunder on the part of the lawyer who drew the bond. He characterized the complaint as frivilous, and evidently the work of malice, and said that as no jury would ever convict man of Barney's standing, on such charge, he did not hesitate to dismiss the complaint.

A Little Pickeniny.

Thi. anecdote is told of Senator Bruce oi Mississippi, the only colored man in Con, gress The late Senator Bogy of Missouri was anxious to have pension bill passed one day for a constituent, and came over to the Republican side to ask support for it.
 He approached the colored Senator from Mississippi, and said:
 "Now look here, Bruce, vote for this, won't youl I only want another vote or two, and you can carry 1t through for me. IL is a meritorious case.
 Certainly" said Mir Bruce, "You know; Senator, that have always been willing to do you any favor you asked.
 "D-n it, sir" replied the Missouri Senator. ''I never asked you favor in my life till this moment"
 ''0h, yes you have, replied Bruce, ''You may remember once, many years ago, that you were going from St. Louis down the river on a steamboat, and you were hurrying along to catch the boat with big valise. You passed little barefooted mulatto, and said: Here you little black rascal, take this yalise and come on with me The boy took the hand bag, and when you came near the boat, you saw 1t was about tp push of, and you ran on ahead and just crossed the gang plank as IL was drawn Tn. The boy, how ever, had not been able to keep up with you, and arrived too late. You stood on the lower deck and yelled: Throw that va lise aboard, y~u d--d black rascal; l can't yo without my yalise' But the boat had moved out til the boy was afraid if would fall into the river if he tried to throw IL. and, besides. he expected to receive a quarter for carrying it. and you had, apparently, for yutten all about that. The valise was not thrown, and you made the captain of the boa. come back again to get it, and the boy collected the quarter. Now do you remem- per :he circumstance, Ssnstorf' concluded Bruce
 '.I do" admitted Ssi,.stog Bogy.
 Well" said Bruce, Il vee the httle nulatto boy who carried your valise, sad l m just as ready to accommodate you to-day 1 IS was then. I'll vote for your bill"
