STILL HOLDING THE FORT.

Special Correspondence ot the CITIZEN.
 YUMA, March %.
 EDITOR CITIZEN: We are here and still |" hold the fort" notwithsland- ing the threats and mutterings that reach our ears from the discomfted parties on the outside. The injunc- tion was argued before hIs Honor Judge DeForrest Porter on the 1Gth instant, and hear 1t resulted in his Honor issuing an order to dispOssess the United States Marshal and the Tucson Shotgun Brigade of the prem ises, and to reinstatg the Yuma Ring We were immediately notified of the fact by messenger from the enemy's camp, who eXultinglY informed NIT. Evans that the order had been issued and that he guessed the store would be opened on the following day. Mir. Evans immediately " fired every ore out that were in there, including that man Levi and Judge Mabbit. The old mans head shook as though he dId not like the proposition, but saw there was no use in " kicking, so made a virtue of necessity by going We have been waiting patiently since ,hen for the appearance of the Sheriil and his posse to serve the papers and eject and " hang the last one of that Tucson mob," as expressed by a prominent citizen of this city not long since Although this is a very sandy place. and the wind has been blowing it about quite promiscuously of late, there has not been sufficient quan- ity collected in any one place to have those papers served up to date, and there is a rumor about town that the powers have failed to recruit a sufficient force to effect the desired end and have squaked, or to use q legal term, have crawfished on the order.
 (" Entre nous," if some of the 60 heebles would study more law and less sour mash, their conclusions would be more rational and their CT TOTS less egregious. This thing may wind up next week, and may not, bu meantime Evans 6" holds the fort"

Fungi in old Mines.

A gentleman who recently had oc- casion tO explore the chambers, drifts and caverns of the old deserted MeXi- can and Ophir mines says that fungi Of every imaginable kind have taken possession Of the old levels In these old mines, undIsturbed for years, Is found q fungus world, in which are to be seen count erfeits of almost ev- erything seen in our daylight world. Owing tO the warmth of the old lev els and tO the presence Tn them of a certain amount of moisture, the tim beTs have been made 10 grow some curious crops. Some of the fungi in the. old chambers are several feet Tn height, md, beng snow white, re- semble sheeted ghosts. In places are what at a little distance appear 10 be white owls, and there are representa- tions of goats with long boards, all as white as though carved in purest marble. The rank fungus growth has almost closed some of the drifts. The fungi are of almost every imaginable variety. Some kinds hang down from the timbers like great punches of sAtN NAAlN AAaAAs AuA OAAANio uAG . Lut pulpy masses. These last generally rise from the rock forming the floor of the drifts, and seem to have grown from something dropped or spilled on the ground at the time work was in progress years ago. These growths have in several places raised from the ground rocks weighing from ten to fifty and even one hundred pounds. Some of the rocks have thus been lifted more than three feet. In the higher levels, where the air Is con- parstively dry, the fungi are less massive in structure than below, and are much finer in texture. Some re- semble rams horns, as they grow in spiral or twisted shape, while others, four or five feet in length and about the thickness of a broom handle, hang from the cap timbers like so many snakes suspended by their tails. One kind, after sending out stem the thickness of 8 pencil to the length of d foot or two, appears to blossom; at least, produces at the end a bulbOus mass that has some resemblance to a flower. In all the infinite variety of these underground fungi it was some what strange that not one was seen at all like those growing upon lhe sur face in the light of day. Nothing !n the nature of toadstOols or mushrooms was found.

Old PrnlnbiIitie..

l. is a serious matter 10 manifest a contempt of the governmental weather guesser, and such an indiscretion is sometimes attended with expensive consequences. When Old Prob:. sig nals that @ storm is approaching the wise individual will at once borrow an umbrella; if he iniimates 6 boreaI visitation of unusual intensity, the coal bin must be replenished ere the price is advanced; the predicted ap- proach of warm weather must be re- spected by the husbandman, and his implements of agriculture put in re- pair for immediate use. To neglect all necessary precautions is 10 render ones self liable to ccnsure, if not actual damages. 4 notable instance of such liability has recently been de- cided by the courts of New York, and IS held up as an example to the sreer- ing unbelievers m weather prognosti- cations.
 On ihe night of March %, 1877, the hull of the steam boat RockawaY, built at Norfolk, Va, was taken by the steam boat Wyanoke of the Old Dominion line, 10 be lowed 10 New York. As the vessels passed Fort ress Monroe the attention of the cap tain Of the WyanoRe vas called to the government storm signals, but they were disregarded by him. Subse- quently the storm became violent and the Rockaway was wrecked. The owner brought suit against the Old Domingo line to recover damages to the amount of s40,OOO The plea of the plaintiff was, that the captain of the Wyanoke, ID disregardIng the storm signals, failed 10 exercise due diligence and precauticn for the pro lection of the property in his care. The case was recently decided, the jury returning a verdict for tine plain tiff, giving hIm 35,0lS.57, with five per cent allowance.
 old Probs. undoubtedly indulged in a complacent smile upon the ren- dition of the decision, and sat for hours before a glowing fire, his feet elevated upon the nearest desk, con- graduating himself upon his first sue cessful victory either upon the earth or in the heavens, and wonderingly speculated upon the possibility of other victims 10 his scientific combi- nation.

MICKEY
BY ROBERT ENlET.

In Ireland, in a mu hut black, 4 child was born with great galore, With but one leg and crooked back, And the heart of its mother beat full sore.
 And he was christened Mickey. As be grew apace load luck to his face) He was bold divil intirely; The terror of cats and all Of their race. He was dreaded and summed most direly.
 And all of them hated Mickey. In the home of his childhood, the girls oi
 Kilkenny
 Were plagued and tormeutsd near unto
 dying. His mother would sell him rf she could) for
 penny
 But diyil a wan would be buying
 Commend me for mischief To Mickey. As lime ran its course, he became gossoou, And joined himself to the deeyil" Till al last be met by the light of the moon, W;h intentions most horribly evil,
 Clhis vagasond scamp ofa Mickey, And struck with club 6 wsyfaring soul, m be laid down and died in furry. With his feet in the air and his head in a
 hole.
 And Mickey fled in hurry.
 Bad luck to the numbering Mickey Four hailifs they came to nab up the thug Four cops from the jail-to carry away The murderer safe to the old iron jug, There 10 await the dread judgment day.
 Poor show for escape had bold Mickey. They tried him, convicted him, hung him up
 high,
 And buried him under the gailows tree. And snow flakes blown from the wiutry sky Cover the grave Of bad Mickey Free.

Such proved to be the case, and last night he was informed that Mexican had entered the store with a large bag sewed tightly up. He then called on Mir. Goldberg and demanded the tobacco, which was quietly given him, the buyer ID the meantime strongly protesting that he had not bought 1t, but simply " kept it over night" As 3li CioldheTg's note showing thr the tohaccu Lad been received aud th pay men, vas to be made in store goods, was shortly af- terwards found, this assertion proved of no avail, and tic tobacco was con- sequently taken ID charge by the off cer, who deserves great credit for so closely attending his duties.

Small Houses.

A correspondent of the San Fran cisco Chronicle, writing from Dem ing, in referring ,o Tucson merchants, speaks of them as small merchants" '" He is perhaps not aware that we have some merchants in Tucson who do a much larger business than the aver age wholesale merchant dealer in San Francisco. Some of our leading houses have paid between $250, GOO and $500, 900 out for freight on goods received during the past year. How many of the wholesale houses of San Francisco have paid out as much in the same timeg How many whole sale houses are there in San Francisco which have paid freight on segsa nil- lion fee hundred HoWdHd pounds dur ing the year ending December 31, 1880?
