EroI., Carlisle N. NJ.

A gentleman who arrived in Cliff ton Saturday from Carlisle, in forms Us that the report current in Clifton that the Carlisle mill had shut dowr was untrue. It prob ably originated from the fact that one of the boilers burned out, and it was necessary to send to Denver for q boiler maker to repair the damage.
 / The latter part of January few miners were laid of, as tue com pany have q large accumulation of ore on the dumps, and did not care to remove ore from the mines faster than it was needed.
 For the four weeks ending Feb ruary 7th the Carlisle company shipped S23,OOO in gold bricks.
 The lexciviation process from which much was expected, has been tried, and we are informed that the results are not at all satis- factory.
 The owners of mining properties in the "East Camp" are looking for boom. Several of the most promising properties have been bonded to well known mining men, and sales are liable to be made at any day.
 The Carlisle Freighting Com pany have put on the road between Duncan and Carlisle a six mule team.
 Mir. Anthony Wright, of Clifton, has purchased NJ. H. Porter's sa loon on the Hill. This Is the lead ing place in the camp, and as Dad" is well and favorably known here we predict he will control the trade in liquids.

Hon. W. C. Eridwell and His Con-
 SfffnenfS


 The course pursued by our Councilman, Hon. w. c. Bridwell, is a matter of surprise and morti iication iJh his friends, who so earn esi.y supported 6i.l for the hon orablo position which he now holds as one of the lawmakers of Arizona. The CLARION published last week the voluntary pledge of Capt. Bridwell, made to Judge Hyatt, the Chairman of the Demo cratic County Central Committee on the 4th of October last, when he accepted the nomination unan- imously rendered him for the Council, in which he said, II pledge myself to oppose any and all measures having for their ob- ject the division of Graham coun- ty." To strengthen his candida ture, Judge Hyatt had printed in circular form and posted through out the county, Capt. Bridwelfs letter of acceptance and pledge against county division. He has introduced in the Council a bill to create a new county, to be known as Sierra Bonita, from portions of Cochise and Graham counties. In the face of his pledge he has done so, without apology or ex- cuse, and without asking his con stituents to release him from his promise of fealty to those who implicitly trusted to his honor. His conduct is ine1plicable. It was a sad day for Graham county when she sent to the Legislative Assem- bly a man to misrepresent her one who does not regard his word whose course Is uncertain and vascilating.

On tho highest peak of one of the many mountains - rock ribbed and ancient as the sun"- which cast their shadows upon the smeiters of the Arlzona Copper Company, we observed some time since g Latin cross, or crux immis. sa. Curiosity led us to enquire why it was placed there, and by whom, and we learned that the Mexican population of this camp, on the departure of Mir. Russell for Scotland, erected it as a talis- man. under certain superstitious observances, to which wonderful effects are ascribed. Mir. Russell. the Superintendent of the Arizona Copper Company. is very popular with the Mexican element of our population, and wishing him a pleasant visit to the land of his nativity and a safe return to Cliff ton, in their simplicity and with good feeling, the cross was placed in position where it can be seen from almost any point in the camp, and in the silvery rays of the moonlight, stands like a solitary sentinel, mute, though eloquent, speaking of immortality and hope beyond the gfave. He to whose honor the cross was erected has not yet returned, but will soon be in our midst again, and will receive a cordial welcome from his many friends in Clifton.

 Late Sunday night MT. Stephen Conrad, who has charge of the engine at the head of the Long fellow incline, started from Cliff ton to walk to the mine-going up the Cononado railroad track. The night was quite dark, and Mir. Conrad had the misfortune to fall into a culvert and injure himself severely, breaking two ribs and otherwise bruising himself. He is under Dr. NIiller's care, and it IS thought nothing serious will re- suit from his fall.

For some time past there has been considerable talk among the Mexican population, in and about Clifton, of a colonization scheme of considerable proportions. It took form several weeks ago when a purse was raised and an agent in the perscn of Senor Juan Roquez, was sent to Old Mexico, to perfect arrangements with the govern ment of that country. From let ters received from Senor Roquez it appears that the Mexican au- thorlties propose to give each head of family 160 acres of land and to furnish them seed to sew for the first years crops. The conditions are that the person re- ceiving the land agrees to live upon it for seven years when 1t becomes his in fact; also the col onists agree to construct system Of irriga.ing ditches. The site SC lected by the agent is in the State of Chihuahua, near the town of Casas Grandes. Tho heads of fifty-two families living in Moren- ci, Clifton and Silver City have signed a paper which pledges them to be members of the colony, and to abide by the agreement submitted to them, through their agent, by the Mexican govern ment. We are informed that those who arc slgners to the agreement in this vicinity are many of them quite well to-do, and that they will prove a valuable acquisition to the population of Chihuahua,- there can be no doubt.
