Phoenix, April 2, 1871.
Brother Rccdcr, assisted by llrothcr (Jill,
of this place, has Ix'en holding a two-day
meeting every night for alwut ten days,
preaching to and praying for those who, to
me the elegant language of Hro. Jicclcr, are
"hovy with sin and rotten witu disease."
Tliut far not much luck has attended the
Rev brethren and none have sought the 1ord
save'two or thrco little girls, wlicsc passions
or s'im could not have troubled them much.
The hardened old sinners of Pbumix have
thui far withstood the artillery of the Lord
as fired by chic! engineer Rccdcr, but he
still continues the siege and threatens to
fight it out on this lino if it takes him all
summer. He has good attendance and that
encourages him to proceed.
On the 11th inst., the delegates to the
Democratic Territorial Convention are to be
elected in tills county. We elect by dis
tricts nl by ballot. Borne little stir is uiadc
by the friends of the several candidates or
gentlemen named for the honor of defeating
Jicuormicic.
I am informed that the Ring here ( Demo
crats) have also selected a portion of the
county ticket already, to wit: Ormes for
shenll, Johnnon for recorder, and John
George tor treasurer. If this be so, it is bet
ter than the common run of "ilinir' nomina
tions, as tho gentlemen named are all worthy
and competent and no "scallywag" among
them.
The river keeps up and is not yctfordablc.
Court sits next week and we have "nary"
criminal, and no grand jury will be called for
the term. It seems as though we arc going
backward, i'very other term of court we
have had a grand jury and plenty of crimi
nals. V hat lo you think about It I
It is said that the Starrar Itros. have struck
some very rich ruck in their raineback of
Sacaton, and it is rumored that John Smith
is about to take hold with them in the de
velopment and opening of tho mine.
A farmer who lives near here came in last
week with a lot of chickens for sale, and
finding the market dull, put them up to be
shot at. lue chicken to be shot at was
placed in a box aud the head drawn through
a bale and exposed. Shots two bits, and
when tho head was hit the raarktman took
the bird. Distance 40 yards. He says it
wai not a good peculation and be don't
want any more of it in his'n. Good for our
marksmen.
There was a fellow hero thought he would
?'o into cotton raiting and sent to California
or seed. The seed wat finwarded by ex
press (75 lbs.) and arrived Rifely as far as
Harden' ferry, where the stage upset and
the teed went rfws Salt river. That fellow
was mcl I have sent for more seed, how.

recently, and told the editor of the
Guardian that New York and other mining

trivcr. wcro fast filliui: with people. The
rmincs in those districts are good. Rrighan
Tfoung, according to Mr. Gass, is anxious to
connect them with Salt LaWu city by rail
road. Tho "local option" law" or California, gives
the inhabitants of any place the right to ac
cept or reject mm shops and rum sellers;
that is, provided a majority of voters Tote
against the sale of spirituous liquors.
A photographic view of the San Diego,

shows the building to be neat and well fitted
for the business. Our friend, Wm. E. Smith,
