People at the Exposition.

A striking thing to an Eastern man is the character of the crowd assembled by this Exposition. Every one carries samples of ores in his pockets, and the talk is of mill runs, prospects and strikes There are bronzed prospectors to be met here who have dar ed the perils attending every new mining excitement for the last twenty years. You hear one man quietly allude to the time when he va. chased two days by the Utes, and another tells of being lost in the mountains, killing his mule, and walking till his bleedingfeet could carry him no further. The gaming spirit peculiar to the ad- venturous miner has produced plenty of men with vividly romantic histories who are now lounging about these streets. Then there are Eastern capitalists, hungry min ng sharps and spectators, side by side with the honest bronzed miner, who actually pro- duces the wealth which they use as the stakes in their gambling. There are men here, too, with darker histories. One was pointed out to me-a pleasant looking fel- low with baby in his arms-who narrowly esca ped lynching at Leadville last winter, and now resides elsewhere, as he considers the climate of Leadville unsuited to his health.

Chas. Hansen, while prospecting in the mountains about twelve miles north from Maricopa Station, and about six teen miles distant from the Gila River, on Friday, the 18th instant, found the skeleton of white man, also some clo- thing, revolver, and belt in one place, and the skeleton of burro, packsaddle, blankets, and cooking utensils in another place, about five hundred yards distant The burro was tied to ''palo verde. '" The blankets, clothing, ropes, etc, were rotten. Mr. Hansen concluded that he had not lost any mines, and got out from there in quick time. The remains were doubtless those of ap unfortunate pros pector, who got lost and perished for water, or was bitten by some poisonous Phenix Gazette.

The Mexican Prospector.

A correspondent of the Los Angeles Her. aid, Tn speaking of a hardy class of pros pectors which are indigenous to all the country south of here, gives the following characteristic sketch of the Mexican pros- pector: He travels with a bag of pinole, and endures the hardships of the hot cli- mate where white man would perish. He knows every spring and water hole in this dry country, and every gulch and hill, and the knowledge of the deserted mines he has inherited as the son of the soil. pity the hardy white men who ven ture out here on prospecting tour. Though safe to travel they have to endure great hardships; they may famish or siarve in country where money can't buy provisions, and game is scarce. To-day we must leave it to the Mexican to discover the mine, and hold it according to the laws of the land, which Is easily understood, and from him, if prom ising buy it for moderate sum. In this way the best mines have been secured, but none, as yet, to my knowledge, were dis covered by an outsider, although many mines were reopened, or new discoveries taken in hand by them from the start. ?

The wheat crop of the Pima Indians, in this county, will amount 10 over 5000, 900 pounds. They raised about the same amount last year. These are peaceable, self-sustaining Indians, and, of course, re- ceiye no assistance from the government. The only attention Uncle Sam shows them, IS to send an agent here to harrass them by interference with their social and re- ligious customs. Were they like the butch ering brutes, fattened and propagsted at San Carlos, they would be given the fat of the land and treated with the greatest kindness and indulgence. To witness the governments Indian policy in Arizona is sufficient to make a man feel like scalping every sentilnentalst he may meet.-Emter- prise

There is beginning to be considerable in- qulry for lands along the line of the At lantic and Pacific railroad. Those who are looking for locations at present, are gener- ally in search of cattle and sheep ranches, bu. the time is not far distant when the agriculturist will elso see the value of the country referred to, and five years hence all the valleys between the Rio Grande and the San Francisco mountains will be sought af- ter as corn and wheat lands, and the coun- try will be producing grain for export, while the possibilities of that region for producing beef and wool are almost beyond compu- tation. This is the first year that Winslow has been in communication with the markets of the world by rail, and yet it is estimated that the wool crop gathered this season by the white settlers in that vicinity, will reach one hundred and fifty thousand pounds.
