 All these grants include large areas of fine grazing lands, aud in places considerable arabic land with water for irrigation. The timber upon the Cananea grant alone is very valuable and will prove most valuable asset of the Greene Consolidated Copper Co. Other surface rights are of vast importance. Taken altogether the transfer i, one of the most important ever made m Mexico,

The cattle on the raDche are in fine condition aud they are all of good grades. During number of years past Proto Brothers have been gradu- ally improving their cattle by the con- tninal infusion of better blood, until th9y have now very high grades of Durhams and HerefOrds.

WAYSIDE NOTES.

around the north end of the Caj0nclto mountains and finally entered the Cajoncito canon, and which we followed number of miles, passing ont into the valley between Cajoncito and Pinto mountains, through which the Cajoncito creek flows to its junction with the Cocos- pera river, just outside the cahon. Oajoncito canon is lovely mountain gorge, beautifully shaded with lordly oak trees, towering cottonwoods and handsome black walnut trees.
 At the mouth of the Cajoncito cafion we passed upon the land Of the Cocospera raoche, but we were still four leagues from the home ranche of MT. Proto.
 During our painful progress through the afternoon my guide, who had lived in California some sixteen years, be- tween 1866 aud lss9) regaled me with his experiences in the Golden state We were both in the "congregation" or "audience" which witnessed the hanging of Tiburcio Vasquez, a noted bandit executed at San Jose in 1875, and he had resided in the region where the bandit operated. The cir cumstances mentioned gave us com mon ground upon which we became quite chummy.
 It was after we got upon the Cocos, pera ranche aud the road was clear that left my guide and started for the home place It was very enjoy able ride down the beautiful valley of the Cocospera, the road passing through several handsome groves of gigantic mesquite trees, the stream in the center lined with beautiful clumps of cottonwoods, with here and there big pastures fenced off in which were grazing herds of horses or cattle.
 About a league from the home ranche Ojo de Agua, ranche station station, was passed, with watering troughs, branding pens, a wind. mill, etc. Here were camped some freight. CTS en route to the Cananeas with three large wagon loads of beer from the Sonora brewery. After coming into the road about two leagues above Ojo de Agua, I met a number of outfits travelling toward the Cananeas, and l am told there is great deal of traffic over the road. It follows longer route than the trail we travelled, go- ing around the north end of the Ca- nanea mountains. We had followed trail which came directly across.
 1 arrived at the home ranche at Co., cospera in the evening some ten hours after leaving La Cananea. The two following days l remained at Coccs- pera looking over the property, with which the most fastidious would be pleased, and an extended description thereof will in due time appear in these columns, and also in my book.
 The traffic over the road toward the Cananeas is very noticeable at Cocos- pera. There seems almost a process sion of heavily laden wagons, carrying flour, beer, sugar and other freight, burro trains laden with all sorts of merchandise, and people horseback, burro back or afoot all going toward the new and growing camp, the fame of which has been heralded so far abroad.
 While I was at Cocospera a bunch of cattle was rounded up for delivery to Hobson &Wise, who had contracted to buy them, delivered at Nogales, and upon Sunday evening Mir. 2. T. Babcock of Wilcox came in to get como cnmc ha had contracted to huv

London, Dec 15.-Several depressing

American shares were adversely af-
