MEYERS DISTRICT.
If True, a Wonderful Mine, and
 Wonderful Camp.

We extract the following from column article descriptive of the mines in the Meyers district published in the Citizen of the 4th inst:
 The formation in which the Gunsight lode is found IS mostly porphyry granite, and is said to be the only place in the ter. ritory where such perfect formation for rich ore bodies can be found.
 Mir. l.. D. Chillson, who has made a survey of several of these mines for United States patents, has furnished the data for the following facts concern. ing the Meyers district, and the report may be relied on as being official. He states that upon the Sierra del Esperanza are eleven firstclass mines more or less de- veloped, with number of other claims of yer Girt, Eastern, Morning Star and Cres- Atlanta. Silver Reef, Westward, Last Chance, Morning Star and Mineral Bed, are promising mines, but not yet as tho. roughly developed as the Gunsight. On the dumps the bodies of ore range from twenty-five tons to twenty-three hundred tons, by actual measurement, of good OlC. uC iuluCo dIc ldTkt, bold and well defined, and the veins have but very slight dip. The Gunsight has a shaft 200 feet deep, at the bottom of which IS d cross.cut of 43 feet, all in ore, and the wall not yet reached. Other tun. nels and drifts aggregate 800 feet, all in ore. The width of the lead cannot be de- termined. The ore Is very rich, and se- ected specimens frequently g've 13,OOO ounces to the ton, while the whole ore body, from it's appearance, would not as- say less than $G0 per ton. From careful estimate of the ore in sight, but not yet taken out of the Gunsight, the body will yield $1,500,00U in silver. This is only counting what. is at present visible to the eye, and not what may be behind the body already exposed. Mir. Chillson states that this is the largest and most permanent silver lode he las ever seen outside the original Comstock lode of Nevada.
 During the visit of the directors the ground was staked off for a threecom. partment working shaft seven by eighteen feet in size, to be snnk five hundred feet deep. The steam hoisting works are now on the road between Tucsen and the mines, and will be erected as soon as they arrive upon the ground. When these are in successful operation, forty stamp mill will be erected. The work so far has been prosecuted in thorough and systematic manner under the able superintendence of MT. Caldwell. Thenew shaft will be con. structed under the immediate supervision of Mir B. T. Russell, foreman of the mine, whose years of experience on the Com. stock guarantee a thoroughness of con. StructiOn

 A fine horse was stolen on Wednesday night from Mr. George Spangenberg, the Fourth street gunsmith. The horse was kept in stable in the rear of his store, but from marks in tue yard it Is evident that the horse had got loose in the night and had been out in the yard. Whoever stole him must have climbed over the fence, for the gate was fastened on the inside and could moi be opened from the outside. The horse was a fine gray that Supervisor Joyce was so frequently seen riding around the city, and which Mir. Spangenberg had but a few days previous traded for.

MILL AND MINE.


Yield of Thousand Dollars a Day From the socorro Daily Sun.
 Sunday, a Sun reporter paid a brief visit to the Terrence mill and found everything running as smoothly as clock work. Two more gentlemanly, accommodating and ef- fCient men could not be found at a mill than Mir. Dwyer, the snperlnten- dent, and MT. Waller the metallur- gist.
 We saw in an inverted cone what looked to us like twenty gallons of amalgam, how much that was worth we are unable to tell, for we never saw any rule where silver was com pnted by the gallon; but we know this, that the mill is pounding out about one thousand dollars a day. How is that for the Terrence mine :? And there is estimated to be 24,0OO tons in sight of just such ore as they are running now.
 The company owning this mine have invested good deal of money in the territory, and some of it has proved to be bad investments, and we are glad to see they are Tn a fair way to get it back with the Dutch mans one per cent.

The Mexican Xona Libra.

NEW YORK, Jan. Especial from Washington: The northern states of Mexico have recently united in de- mand upon the government of Mex ico that the zona libra, or free belt, shall be extended to the Pacific, cov- ering the entire border of the United States. It now extends from the Gulf of Mexico along the Rio Grande about half way to the Pacific coast. When thls proposal came to the knowledge of the United States government, Minister Morgan was instructed to protest againstit it on the ground that zona libra made snug glng easy. It is understood that Senor Romero is or soon will be upon his way to Washington with authority to enter upon neg ,tiations for re- ciprocity treaty with Mexico. If such treaty be consummated it is believed that one of its important features will be the abolishment of the zona libra,

A Phenlx Fox Story.

Had the following tough yarn been said to have happened on other than the Rio Verde, near Phenix, we should have seri ously doubted the occurrence, but inas. much as Mir. Bicknell, in the absence of the editor of the Herald, permitted it to see light in the columns of that journal, we feel constrained to say it might have been. P. c. B. says:
 While on the Verde river lately my dog pursued large fox, and, with no other place of refuge near, the fox ran rapidly up the perpendicular thorn-studded col; uinn of a saguara. l believe he started without thinking, but he must have thought some on his way up. l was so touched by this little piece of selt-sacrifice that I called of the dog, and left the fox to descend at. leisure. -A

Reported Large Sale.
'om the Arizona Gazette.

rrOHi tne ArlZOna 1aZette.
 We have it, on what may be con- sidered reliable authority, that the Red Rover mine in Magazine dis trict has just been sold for the hand some sum of $4O0,000. The purchas- CTS are supposed to. be Eastern capi- talists. However, we are unable to gain any particulars of the facts, as it is general custom in thls section of the territory-and the only place on the coast where we have ever found it so-for the owners of mines to seek obscurity fer their property, and surround the most trival trans actions connected herewith, with the greatest secrecy. Of course this is their privilege, as these affairs per tain strictly to themselves, yet we must question the wisdom of a policy that hides under a measure our most important industry. The Red Rover is really good mine and the enlistment of capital in its de- velopment is matter for public con graduation.

A Desperate Bagged.
From the Arizona Gazette.

From tne ArlZona VaZette
 Burke, the notorious desperado who killed several men on the line of the A. & P. railroad, and against whom five indictments are standing in Yavapai county, was arrested in Pinal last Sunday, by Messrs. George Hall, Rice and Miller. It seems that Burke, upon reaching Mcdowell, sold his weapons to get money to continue his flight from justice, and conse- quently was unarmed when arrested. However, in making his capture, George Hall met with painful acci- dent. AS he drew his pistol to cover the criminal, the weapon was accl- dently discharged and the ball passed through Mir. Halls right foot. The unfortunate gentleman arrived in the city last night, and his wound is being properly treated.
