We last night received letter from J. H. Hamill, junior editor of the Globe Silver Belt, which contains the following extract of interest to Clifton and vicinity: ''In to-day's Belt is published a letter from the Secretary of the St. Louis Exposition Association, in reference to the mineral ex- hibit to be made at their Exposi- tion in September next. It is of importance to Clifton as we'll as all other mining districts in the Territory, and I would suggest that you call attention to the mat ter through the columns of the Clarion, and induce, if possible, a display from Clifton and other districts of Graham county" The Belt not having put in an appear ance yet, we are unable to repro duce the letter referred to, but will do so next week.
