TUCSON, A. T Bepl9-6m. The editor of the Prescott Miner has been shown specimens of ore from the Tip Top mine which were almost pure silver, $20,000 per ton. This mine has recently shipped eight tons of very rich ore to San Francisco. A San Bernardino man is staking $5000 in 20 dollar gold pieces that in less than three years the S. P. R. R. Co. will build their main line through the San Fer nando tunnel, and take millions of Los Angeles freigh and passen gers through that city. The An geles are in a terrible bad fix just now. Think of it! San Diego hanging to one ear and San Ber nardino to the other, while Santa Monica bites their big toe. Who bets? Ehrenberg Letter. Ehrenberg, May 24 1877. Editor Sentinel: At Desert station, sixty miles northeast on the Wickenburg road, a difficulty occurred on the afternoon of the 22d. inst. in which gyatta John was shot and instantly killed by one William Barr, both employ es of Rev, H. A. Wilson, station keeper. It seems that said Gayat ta John had threatened the lives of several parties, knocking down an Italian with a pistol. Mr. Barr, seeing his life in danger, went off and armed himself. On his re- turn Gayatta John turned to shoot him, but Barr was too quick for Gayatta.andshot him through the chest. Barr came to town yester day and surrendered himself to Deputy Sheriff Fisher. An exami nation will take place before the justice on Saturday, at which Mr. Wilson and some others will ap pear as witnesses. Maj. J W. Evans arrived this morning from Prescott with the stage robber, Sulton. He will convey him to Yuma for lock up in the Peniten tiary. Quiz. The following communication from a resident of Yuma, ex presses our sentiments about the adjacent mountains exactly : Yuma, May 29th. Editor Sentinel: The pur chase of the Carga Muchacha mines by San Francisco capitalists means not only that they will be worked but itopens the eyes of the old fogy dreamers in our midst to the fact, that there is m the ad joining mountains a rich harvest of gold and silver for those who may first exhibit enterprise enough to thoroughly prospect them. We have heard old miners say that there is no paying quantities of gold in our aiountains, but as usual, capital, that certain mining barometer, says there is. So far as a, prospectors opinion that there is no mineral in a certain section is concerned, it is not worth five cents. The simple fact is he didn't find it. The next day a " tenderfoot " green-horn will walk over the same ground and find a rich lode. The nuggets which have been brought in from the placer diggings on the Gila are sufficient evidence that there is rich quartz somewhere iu the adjoining mountains. Who will find it ? Vista. Phoenix Letter. PHceNix, A. T., May 25th. Editor Sentinel : That con tested sale of sheep and horses belonging to Ayres, and sold un der execution by E. B. Kirkland, assignee, fairly took place on the 23d, and 653 sheep, mostly weth ers, were first put up and knocked down to Dr. W. W. Jones, of Wickenberg, for $160. The bal ance, 765, were bought at $1 per head by J. T. Dennis. The sheep disposed of, a band of fine looking "broncos" were the next attrac tion. Enough were sold by the sheriff to satisfy the judgment which took five, varying in price from $75, to $35. Four young un broken mules brought $290, at pri vate sale, and another $125. The boys had much fun when the catching commenced, for the lasso is little used in this vicinity and old experts are a trifle out of practice. Since the completion of the new road via Agua Caliente, Messrs. E. Irvine $ Born have started a four mule light team over the same to Yuma. This will be quite an accommodation to parties wanting small parcels of freight delivered promptly from Yuma. Among the arrivals of the week at the new Dudley's hotel are noted the editor of the Sentineli whom you may have met, Lew Bailey and Frank Larkin from the Gila, S. M. Slankard, who was looking after his interest In those sheep and horses, and C W. Reives, a San Francisco de tective, who comes to take W. B Scott to Sacramento, to answer the charges of defalcation, &c, against him. They start to-morrow. During his short stay among us, Scott has made many friends, by his gentlemanly and courteous bearings and many wishes are expressed, that he may be able to clear up the record against him. Eight days since, Joe Phy having lost cattle from the Agua Fria, started to look them up among the Indians, as nothing has been heard from him since, foul play is suspected, and this afternoon, J. Marrill, T. Rogers, and C. Clark, started to look liitn up. Much anxiety is felt, at Joe's long absence. Deputy sheriff MacDonald, having returned from an assessing tour in what is called the Globe district, gives very encouraging reports of the mines and mills in the extreme southeastern portion of this county. Specimens brought in from McMillan and Hughes' "Stonewall Jackson:" Mack Morris' claim in the Rich mond Basin, and the Chilson brothers claim, are full of silver and very rich rock. At the Wheatfields. Pro. Gardner, of whom I spoke in a late letter, has erected his smelter, completed his ditch, and will be ready now for work. Van Arsdale&Co. have another smelter here, and a 24 stamp mill is said to be eng route from San Francisco. From present ap pearances, this corner of Maricopa county is destined to be an im portant one. When we see it we will give you full particulars. S. C. H.
