SPANISH PEASANTRY.
characterized by Poverty and Appni-
ling Ignorance.

In the Spanish lower classes you will
find poverty and appalling ignorance
y neglect OF the intelligence which Is
positively nnimal-yet nevertheless not
unallied with an obvious capacity Of
education and improvement, an actual
and admirable pluck and cheerfulness,
temper grateful, hospitable, and af-
fectionatc, and n marvellous sobriety Of
living.
There Is one especial word particu.
larly applicable to this gente baja. 1t
Is the Spanish word sufrlda, which we
must render in single English word
by patient; but 1t means more than pa
tlent; 1t means patient and unvindic-
tive under grievous injury and wrong.
Such are the Spanish peasantry-'the
cream of the Spanish people. Their
only province in relation to their gov
ernment is to pay. They are passive
vehicle for ministerial extortion. The
contribuciones are already heavier
than they can bear, and grow more
merciless as each successive admins
tratlon plunges the country deeper and
deeper into debt. In return for this
continuous disbursement they receive
nothing. Their lands are without q
road, their children without n school;
theiP navy is furnished with ships con-
tracted for at double the price of ours,
whose only quality is to go to the bot
tom without the shadow of cause
their army Is unpaid, unofiicered, and
undrilled, and absolutely incompetent
to engage with any European power
The last Spanish census shows that OF
total population of 100000 over g.
100000 can neither read nor write
while over half have no determined oc-
cupatlon. This statement is in itseli
so damning that 1t appears hardly nee
essary to inquire further. 1t simply
serves to show that for the present
Spain is country of Europe, but no
of Europeans; that the Moor, and the
very worst and most savage part Of
him, Is still predominant in the despots
who, by the sheer exercise of terror
aided by n complaisant and feebl,
monarchy, an army, an armed police, ;
suborned clergy, and suborned press
abuse the holiest attributes of trus
and government and power.-West

LOST MINE IN ARIZONA.
Rich Property, Guarded by CrumbilBn
BrcnstworLs.

Brenstworks.
The story of the discovery of an old,
forgotten mine in an unfrequented To-
cality in the foothills of the Pnal
mountains, embellished with romantic
details such as usually accompany
legends of lost mines, created n lively
interest about the public resorts In
Globe.
L. s. Goble, II. Quarrels and II. 8.
McClelland, on August II, while pros
pecting in the foothills eight or nine
miles south of Globe and three and
half miles to the left of the toll road,
discovered an old shaft, and near by on
the hill above the ruins of breastworks,
which had evidently been erected for
defense against Indians. The evidences
of great age observable in the decayed
shaft, almost filed with debris, and the
crumbling breastworks, excited the
party's curiosity, and they stopped to
Investigate. The old shaft was found
to have been sunk on n well-deiined
ledge, from which they took promising
specimens of ore which tested well in
copper and gold.
Owing TO the unsafe condition of the
old shaft, after having removed two or
three feet of the debris. they aban-
doned 1t. and having made thei- loca-
tions, they started new incline shaft
below the old works. From the sur
face down they had a twelve to four
teen inch streak of sulphuret ore run
ming from 10 to SO per cent. in copper
] In ri tvin
per ton. The incline Is now down flf-
teen feet and the ore has widened to
three feet.
A well-preserved skeleton, with bull
let hole through the skull, or bearing
other evidence of foul play, is desir-
able, II not an essential exhibit of ev-
cry such discovery, and as this was
lacking, Mr.. Goble .industriously set
about to supply the deficiency, al
though in justice to our Informant, he
says 1t was the hope of uncovering
! treasure more than to make so grew
some find, which prompted him to ex-
plore mound of stones lodged in n
| crevice In the rocks near the breast
works. After removing about three
feet of rock and leaves Goble struck his
pick into what proved to be the eye
socket of a human skull, which caused
him to momentarily shrink with horror,
but summonlng up courage he proceed
ed with the work, and soon uncovered
n complete skeleton of n man. Near
the right hand lay dagger eaten with
rust, large chunk of quartz scanned
with coarse gold, and n handsome
specimen of onyx. What was the fate
Of the human being whose bones had
been thus rudely disturbed? Had he
been murdered by the implacable foe of
the white man, the blood-thirsty
Apache, or had he peacefully laid down
life's burden and been tenderly com
mitted to the grave by friendly hands?
There is none to answer, and the mys-
terry must remain unsolved.-Globe, A.
