The OrIOle Gold and Sltyer Mining
 Company.

The following communication is from our correspondent at Yuma:
 The Excelsior, Orian, Turner and Hilo Verde mines, situated in Pima county, and belonging to Col. Lyman A. Smith, of Yu. ma county, have been incorporated in Bal timore under the name of the Oriole Gold and Silver Mining Company of Baltimore City. The incorpOratOrs are August Wehr, Gustavus Lehman, Chas. F. Roehle, Henry Ruhl, Jr., Francis P. Stevens and John w. Pitts, of Baltimore, and John F. Tur- ner, of Washington City. The company proposes to carry on mining operations in Maryland and Arizona. Capital stock, $2,000,000
 We are pleased to see these valuable mines coming to the front. Col smith certainly deserves great credit for his con- tlnued development of the Santo Domingo District, and his steady perseverance to equal this group of mines to any in tbe Territory, and this fact has already been proven. We have visited these mines and they are certainly as they are represented by your correspondent. Their average assay is $3iS. 40, and the whole character of the leads assimulate to the celebrated Gun. sight mine in Meyers District, twenty.two miles apart, and is on the line of the Gum sight belt, and still continuing a rich lead into Sonora. Col Smith, up to the time of incorporation hss been from year to year and at large outlay of money developing each of these mines. The Excelsior has -four shafts, Mo- l, 60 feet; No. 3, 52 feet No. 3, 20 feet; No. f. 15 feet; one tunnel Al feet, and has 300 tons of ore on the dump, which will average $6O The Orion has three shafts, No. l, 40 feet; No. ?, 25 feet; No. 3, b feet, and one tunnel of IS feet, and 200 tons of ore on the dump of aH average of $6O. The Turner has one shaft 20 feet, and has % tons of ore on the dump. The Hilo Verde has two shafts, No. l, g feet, and No. ? 12 feet. This certainly, speaks volumes for these mines, and can not fail to soon become among the most valuable mining property Tn Arizona, and they could have already been sold for large figure We are informed that Col. Smith will shortly recommence work here, and anticipates greater pros- poets. The incorporation cannot but real- ize rich and happy investment.

 Richard Rule departs for Sulphur Springs valley this morning. Mir. Rule has secured a fine ranch in the valley and hiD.self and brothers will soon embark in the cattle business.
 The unclaimed tiger of the Oriental sa. loon got badly scratched on Thursday night. Over thousand dollars was taken out of his hide by nervey sportsmen. The tiger still shows his teeth, however.
 Last night man was fooling with pistol in the store of Fredericks & Hill, on Allen street, when it accidentally went of, the bullet passing through the wall of the brewery adjoining and narrowly escaping aman sitting in its course.
 Doling's race track will be tEe scene of some splendid sport on July third. Some of the fastest horses in the city will test their speed, and a free-for-all race will oc- cur Tn the evening. Doling has $500 bar on the grounds, so there is no need of aAy person being thirsty between the races. Men have been employed finishing the track for several days
 Much injustice was done Billy Claiborne by the report circulated that he had ran of some stock belonging to Pete Spence. It now appears that he followed the Mexi. cans who stole the stock, from Tuesday morning until the following Thursday night, making over 250 miles in that length of tme,' but managed to secure the horses. The Kid" naturally felt indignant that such report should get abroad, especially as he was in dead run after the thieves, and without food for three days.

CHINESE LABOR.
An Interview with the Court House
 COntractOr.

In response to the assertions made by correspondent in our issue of Tuesday concerning the employment of Chinese la- Dor on the construction of the new Court House, an EPITAPH reporter sought out Mir. Ritter, yesterday, to inquire into the facts. The contractor denied the allega- tion, and further, asserted that Chinese would not be employed He said. however that he had sub let the contract for brick work 10 Mir. Joyner, and that perhaps, that gentleman had employed few Chi namcn in the brick yard, it being almost impossible to find white labor to perform that work.
 The reporter then went in quest of the sub-contractor, and was informed that there had been Chinamen employed mak- ing brick. He said he brought five China men from Tucson, but had employed only four. The same Chinamen made brick for the Court House at Tucson. One of them is moulder and receives six dollars day The others get two dollars and half a day each. He has a.so three white labor CTS, one of whom receives six dollars per day and the others are paid three dollars Mr. Joyner asserts that he cannot get white labor to do the same kind of work. The white men habitually worked day or two and quit. He said he did uot save any. thing by employing Chinamen, and would much prefer to employ white labor if it was possible to get it.
 From investigation, made elsewhere, we are convinced that it is not the intention Of the contractors to put on Chinese labor, and also that Mir. Joyner would have noth- ing to do with the Celestials, if he could gel competent white labor.

 of sand carbonates was discovered during the past week. This ore body is pronounce ed by those competent to judge, similar to the sand carbonates of the Raymond X Ely of Nevada, which made such stir Tn mining cncles few years ago. The winze being sunk twenty-five feet from the shaft on the same level promises to open up a fine body of ore at that point. At the bot tom of the winze the vein shows up three feet wide, and assays from $l00 to S12O. Mill tests of the ore shows it to be easily reduced, and producing bullion beyond expectation. The north drift ofthe 80 foot level is being prosecuted vigorously, and will connect with shaft No. ? at a point seventy feet from the present face of the drift. They will continue shipping ore to the mill next week. LITTLE DEVIL.
 The shaft on this promising mine was sent seven feet since our last report. The vein matter is about the same general char acter but expanding as development pro- gresses. The Devil promises to be one of our big bullion producers in the near tu- ture.
