 H. L. Herziuger and Frank ;. Jack
 sou, two typos in this office, strOlied up
 Granite Creek yesterday mile above
 town, and took items on John Hessiers
 placer mining and examined his spsci- mems. The gold is coarse, and Hessler' $
 claim pays quite regularly, more than
 wages. He has a good many cuispas
 weighing from g. to Sl and say IS he has
 good ground enough to last him three years. He told the printers there was
 plenty Of good ground below his claim.
 so they gOt pick, pan and shovel and
 dug hole to the bedrock. washed eight pans Of gravel and got ninety cents in
 gold, aHJ gut excited besides. and have
 now gor claim adjoining Hessler's
 running down the creek 1j10 feet an
 have got an idea of quitting the case and
 guing into the creek.

 The first safe brought to Prescott WIS ] freighted here by wagon from Kansas | City by ex-GOyernor k. C. Mccormick. ! the first Secretary, and the best official ! this Territory ever had. The safe al- lnded to was pur hased from the See ' retary by Hon. Levi Bashford, and has | done good service, hOlding more money l than any mercantile safe in the Terri | tory. Recently the finn Of L. BashioTd ] S Co. have replaced Nlc old by new one, mammoth m size, etc.
 EermIn Mejia, who has made some | money mining m this section, has re- gently discovered, near Walnut Grove, | twenty-five miles south of Prescott, a mammoth ledge 3OO feet wide. which is 1 filled from wall to wall with veins of | high grade ore, at once making 1t worthy uf note and much consideration. H.. Is qCite sauguine that 1t is by far the lreatest gold ledge in this section. and | believes It to be the equal. in value. of tho Silver King in Pinal county. We hope the ledge is all tEat is claimed for 1t. The orr Is free milling ore, and the forty or fifty pounds We have seen is permeated with grains of gold. This mine may prove to be a great wonder, and we would not mind taking ieed for lO0 feet.
 There k at least one man in Prescott who corresponds with the Prince of Wales. We were shown to-day a letter written by that high dignitary tO a man Uf humble life and a resident of Tavapai county. When they were boys great attatchmeut grew ID between them, and 1t still exists fresh and warm.
 A grea; deal of work Is being done on rich mining claims near Tipiop. Tie GIllett mil, which has been disabled 1n account Uf broken shaft, will start up in day or two. One hundred and fifty tons of high grade ore from the TiptJp mine Is how at the mil ready for treat ment. Business lu the district k brisk The above We learn from Mr. Rod nburg

 Prescott has been gaining in pcpGla ' ton during the last twelve months n , greater proportion than any place iu AFi- | zona. Her citizens are all occupied m | some legitimate business, hence lOulgers | are not common. Eine' improvements | have been made, and taking everything I into consideration We should all feel sat satisfied with the situation. People Cf { all sections become restless and tall at random abOut gUiug to some faster country, bat tbey generally miss tine mark very considerably. We don't know where a mal. now iu business here, could better himself by moving. The hang and stick kind generally come out all right. and above all times this would be the wors, m which to change residence.
 Spiritualisrn Is increasing iu Prescott We can count up over iu.
