THE TURQUOIs.
4 Distinguished Company Visit the
 Mines of this Promising District.


 Bright and early yesterday morning the following named gentlemen left Tomb. stone, for the Turquois district, under the guidance of Mir. J. II. Jackson. There were MT. George Hearst, the mining mil lionaire of San Francisco, and one of the best judges of d mine on the Pacific coast; Mir. Smith, of St. Louis, Mo, interested in the Merrimac Mining company; Hon. Henry Dibblc, late of New Orleans; Mr. H. M. French, of Boston, Mass, mining operator of no small experience. and A. H. Stebbins, Esq, of Tombstone, as the host of the party. Notwithstanding the rough day, the genial party, in a measure, com pensated for the rebuffs of nature. Upon arriving at the camp, the first point of in terest visited was the Defiance mine, an ac count of which appeared in the EPrAPH several months ago. In addition to the Defiance, Messrs. Hearst and French took saddle horses and, under the guidance of Mir. Jackson, visited the Dragoon, Black Jack, Hidden Treasure, Star, Luke Su- perior and Elgin mines. Returning to camp, they hitched up their teams and drove into town, where they arrived at d late hour, tired and hungry, and adjourned to "Jakey's" popular Fourth street restau. rant, where they sat down to an elegant dinner, to which they did ample justice
 It is understood that Mir. Hearst WAS very favorably impressed with the mines of Turquois district. The prolonged stay and extensive investigation into the mineral resources of Cochise county, by Mir. Hearst, is an evidence that in the light of present developments he sees bright future before us. We trust that his favor. able report upon his return to San Fran cisco will set the great mining operators of the Pacific to thinking that, after all, Ari- zona is worth looking after a little. It IS very natural that we should have fellow feeling for Mir. Hearst, as he is newspa per man, being the owner of the San Fran, cisco Daily Examiner one of the leading journals of California. He is also the prob. able democratic nominee for governor of the State at the coming election this fall, and will stand a good show for election if there is harmony in the party, which for his sake, we are sorry to say, now looks most improbable.

Dayidge Opening His Argument.

WASHINGTON, Jan. l2.-Soon as the court was called to order, Da- vidge took position in front of the jury and opened his argument with a disclaimer of any intention to make set speech, but expressed d simple desire to render to the jury what aid he could in their present and solemn duty. The time had now come Tn this trial when the jury were to become the factors. Whatever disorder or levity might have characterized the trial, there was but one sentiment in respect to the conduct of the jury; all commended their digni6ed attention to the evi- dence, and he could not doubt tha, as they had received the commenda- tion of all for it, they would con iinue to deserve it Tn the future by their decision of the questions be- fore them.

Sherman Makes n statement.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Senator Sherman, to day, before the contin- gent fund committee, denied any knowledge of irregularities in the treasury. He had too many weighty matters on his hands to look after the details. He had paid for all work done on his place by treasury em, ployes. Pitney might have mixed accounts, but he kept regular ac- the committee says the developments are of very small grade. Sherman only employed treasury men because he could get them cheaper.

Closing In Upon Guiteau.

WAsHINGToN, Jan. 12.-On the re- assembling of the court this after noon, Davidge resumed the argu- ment before the jury.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.--While Davidge was addressing the jury and court he paused moment. Taking advantage of the pause Guiteau ex- claimed sneeringly: "Just listen to him! They will listen to you; but your talk is so weak it is hardly worth listening to-" For several minutes Guiteau continued to inter- ject his comments with evident inten- ton of annoying Davidge, but find ing he could not effect this, he grad ually subsided to complete silence. Upon the question of inspiration Davidge said, "I think I will be able to show to your satisfaction how little there is in this claim. The only question:" he said, was that of in. sanity" He then argued that the prisoner had had that degree of in telligence and legal knowledge aud moral sense which renders him re- sponsible for his acts. In telling passage he showed that the prisoner himself had wit to see the fatal weakness of Scoville's line of de. fense, and repudiated it, arguing in his own behalf that he was no imbe. o;lo

The Etah Con rest.

WASHINGTON, Jan, l2.-There is a strong pressure from the churches in behalf of Campbell, which the committee do not know how to re-. sist. They do not like to give the seat to Campbell in the face of a large majority of votes cast for Can nen and they will probably con- clude to hold the election ever again as the easiest way to dispose of the case,

The PinOIe Explosion.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 12.-Ac. counts of the Pinole disaster vary, some saying two Chinamen were killed and three mortally wounded; {; others, one killed and one mortally wounded, while the other employees injured consist of slight injuries from flying splinters. The company claim that no powder exploded and that steam was the sole cause of the disaster. This seems contradicted by the evidences of the force of the ex- plosion, which shattered Widely separated buildings and distributed cartridge cases for great distance. The loss is estimated at $20,000

Three have been executed, three shot while resisting the sheriff ard en- deavoring to escape from jail, and one released, he having turned states evidence. Tomahop Towne, unlike the other confederates, confessed his crime and met his fate with stoical indifference.

COCHISE COUNTY AHEAD.
The Winchester Mines Eclipse
 All Former Discoveries.
Ore From the Grass Roots Assays
 SI,4OO Per Ton.
THE LAST DISCnXERY-

There have been startling reports upon the streets for the last week in relation to new dscoveryin this county, that if one half is true that is reported, bids fair not only to rival, but to eclipse, the great wealth of the mines of Tombstone From MT A. J. Mitchell, who has just returned from this new Golconda, the following facts have been learned.
 WINCHESTER MINING DISTRICT
 Upon discovery of the mines the pros pectors held a meeting and laid out a new district bounded as follows Commencing at point on the road from Point of Noun tains to Tres Alamos dve south of the Pilot Knob, and running thence along said road to Point of Mountains, thence north ten miles, thence west ten miles, thence south to the Tres Alamos road, and thence easterly along said road to place of begln- ming. The mines are situated about five miles west from Point of Mountains, twelve miles west from Willcov, and eigh, teen north of Summit Station en tie Southern Pacific railroad.
 THE MINES.
 There are at present about fifty locations in the district, many of which show high grade ore on the surface. The principal and central mines arc the Grand View and Antelope, both located upon the same ledge, The outcrop is said to be immense, standing in places from ten to fifteen feet high, being traceable for 5000 feet The assays from the croppings run from $50 to $1400 per ton. The ledge has been cut through in two places, and the ore was found 50 rich that it was piled upon can vas and old flour sacks to save the horn silver and chl0rides with which it is con- plelely impregnated. Four assays from these places gave S3O0, 5000 s1200 and $l400 respectively. The ore occurs be. tween lime upon the south and quartzite upon the north.
 FACILITIES FOR WORKING.
 There is good supply of wood within two miles, and there are springs of water only one mile distant, and it is thought that water can be obtained by sinking any where in the gulch north of the mines and about one half mile distant
 Several parties who have started from Tombstone for this new discovery have not found it, owing to there being no road leading direct to the mines; but this ob- stace will be soon overcome, as the rush is setting in too strong for the place to re. main longer in obscurity.
 WILL THE MINES GO DOWN!
 This is now the paramount question that agitates the public mind. If they do, then the fortunes of the discyverers are assured. If not the bubble will burst, as many an other of the same sort has done before Judging from the fact of the occurrence of the ledge between lime and quartzite, there is strong probability that it will not only go down, but there may be both an en- largement and enrichment of the ore bodies. It is fair to suppose that such are the views of Mir P w. Smith, who has bonded the mines Of Mir. Upton for the sum of $50,000.

A New Swindle.
From the Journal.

Some enterprising rascals have in- vented new mode of swindling. They organized county in Dakota, which had no inhabitants but them. selves, and issued liberal amount of bonds, which were negotiated in Wall street. It is no w rse however, than issuing bonds in the name of railroad con pany which has no road and does not inted to build any, a practice not uncommon among the peculiar people who pass for respec. table financlers in the centers of speculation.

The Elders COurtshIp.
From the Salt Lake Tribune

fioiH thS cait idhc iIipuh"
 It was soft and balmy night in spring; the burning sunset was hang ing its golden tapestries across the mellow west, and the electric light was just begining to fig and spit along the main streets, when Elder Snoozer was sitting in the elegant boudoir of Widow Smith, whose rich brown eyes and desirable real estate penetrated the Elders innermost thoughts.
 "Will that squint-eyed first wife of yours be made to stand around when I yawp?"
 "When your dhclet voice sounds through the ancestral halls, Hannah will get to the coal bln. She'll have about five hours sleep a day, and work for the balance of the time."
 Inside of a week they passed through the Endowment house, where Elder Wells made them one. Old Snoozer took Tn a fine piece of real estate with a good looking woman and was happy. Two years passed and the once beautiful Sarah bending over the wash-tuo and laming the en- dowment robe of the third wife vic. iously against tree, until the studs falling over the tender flowers give them new life in the hot July sun, is sort of picture the passing bull whacker contemplates.
 "How do you like the new deal?" asks the first wife, who is chopping wood near by. And the language of wife No 2 is not fit to print in Il family newspaper.
