James Elder of Florence, reca- -ly re- ceived letter from Hon. Lewis De Pew, formerly a member of the legisla- ture from Pinal county, from which the following excerpts are taken. It is dated Mazogues, Porto Rico, Nov 12th, He says:
 This is a fine country, tEe only drawback being too much rain. All kinds of tropical fruits grow here in abundance and of the best quality. The inhabitants as a rule do not amount to much, being lazy and shift less and all on the beg. So fan thera have been no mines found here, but I think there will be, and placers at that The Spaniards who came here about 400 years ago got lots of gold dust from the natives. There is every indication of gold, being plenty of red iron, and I saw some small pieces of quartz with lots of gold in it which were picked up in tha- mountains I would go out prospecting, but cannot ges away from the office long enough. l
