SATURDAY MOUSING, DKCCMMSK 7, t7.
IIkadq,iirti:rs. It is sincerely hoped, by
a large majority of the citizens of the Terri
tory, that the commander of the District of
Arizona, General T. L. Crittenden, will es
tablish his headquarters at some convenient
point near the centre of the country occupied
by the hostile Indians. General Gregg has
said that Fort Whipple is decidedly the best
point in the Territory for headquarters and
a general rendezvous for the troop engaged
in fighting Indian,'. It is .situate in the heart
of the Indian country, in the healthiest, best
watered and timbered sect ton of Arittoita; is
surrounded by wore of well-cultivated
farms and hundreds of rich mine, and Is, in
faet, the only portion of the Territory that
1kw made any progress in the development of
its mineral and agricultural resources. With
proper military protection the people of Cen
tral and Western Arizona would, in a few'
yean, astonish the country with the large
amount of gold anil silver, the thousands of
head of horses, cattle and sheep they would
send out of the Territory. Were it not for
Indian wars they would, to-day, be happy
and prosperous.
Removal o? Get. Gkkgg. By a military
order published eteewbore in to-day' MiNica,
it will be seen that General J. Irrin Gregg
ha3 been removed from command of the Dis
trict of Prescott, and ordered to proceed to
Camp McDermit and asumc command of the
District of Nevada. The General and hw
Adjutant, Lieutenant Hobart, left Prescott
for Nevada yesterday morning. A good
many of our people are sorry to lose General
Grogg, ., during his sojourn among us, he
lias endeared himself to our citizens by his
gentlemanly conduct and the vigorous man
ner in which he waged war upon the hostile
Indians before he was caught in the meshes
of a certain little pub. func. We hope the
General will like bis new field of duty, and
keep aloof, hereafter, from meddlesome civil
officials.
By order of Gen. Grogg, Capt. J. S. Whar
ton, 14th U. S. Inf., will repair to Fort Whip
ple and assume command of the District.
F-scocraoixg. Every mail brings 113 a
list of new subscribers and words of encour
agement and cheer. The people of the Ter
ritory seem pleased with our efforts to make
the Mixer n first-class newspaper, and are
contributing liberally to its&upjrart. Demo
crats and Republicans admit that n change
for the better has taken place in the paper
since it has been under our control. It is our
purpose to continue improving it, and we
hope every man who has the interest of the
Territory at heart will come to our aid and
help us to place the Miner in the front rank
of Pacific coast journals. Every man in
the Territory should subscribe for a copy and
send it to his friends in California and the
East, so as to inform them of the advantages
offered by this Territory to labor and capital.
The paper has ceased to be the organ of one
man and will hereafter turn its attention to
making known the wanti of our people, the
richness of our mines, the fertility of our
soil, and the unsurpassed excellence of our
climate.
Governor McCormick. at request of J.
Ross Browne, furnished that gentleman with
a report of mines and mining in Arizona.
His report, we arc told, makes about 100 pa
ges of manuscript, and is thorough as regards
details. The Governor divided the Territory
into districts as follows: Southern, Central
and Colorado, giving a description of each
district, tho names of the prominent mines,
and the amount of work done upon them.
This rejwrt will be incorporated into Mr.
Brcwne's General report and placed before
Congress and the people.
Settled Li. The old county officers have
settled up their affairs with the county and
thoir successors in a satisfactory manner. A
more competent set of officers than the re
tiring one (save and except ourselQ never
filled positions in any county, and Messrs.
Christie and Bourke deserve the thanks of
their fellow-citizens for the able manner in
which they have discharged their duties.
Formal Transkeii or Walhussia. The
formal transfer of the territory of Russian
America to the United States took plnco at
New Archangel on the 18th or October. The
transfer was eilected by Captain Peteschau
ruff, as Commissioner on behalf of tho Rus
sian Government, ind Major General Rous
seau, on the part of the United States. The
ceremony consisted in lowering the flag of
the first named country und raising that of
the latter, tho firing ol n white, and a brief
speech from the officers tendering and accept
ing the territory, in the names of their res
pective Governments.
"Who will care for mother now," was sung
by a voncrable old gentleman of the Yava
pais upon the dopirturo of tho Governor nnd
mite for Tucson.
Mining News Placers.
The recent rains have raised the water in
the creeks sufficiently to citable our honest
miners to "onycarth" tho yellow oro which
lies hidden among the sand and gravel of
their bed?. A irty of four men, at work on
the upper Ilaunyampa. washed out, last
week, tho nice sum of one hundred dollars.
The Mexican on lower Lynx creek, are do
ing very well making from three dollars to
five dollars per day with rockers nnd mm.
The placer campaign will soon commence on
Big Bug, upper Lynx creek. Black canon
and other places, and we expect to have to
chronicle some big strikes. 0. Allen and
Theodore Bojtjrs are reparing to work gulch
diggings in Big Bug. Icwis Thomas and
Anderson Ac Osljorn, will, as soon as more wa
ter conies, start in to work their rich claims
on Big Bug, and a great many other placer
miners arc getting ready to "go for' the root
of all evil.
The Weaver, or Antelope Hill, diggings
still boll out. Nearly one hundred Mexicans
are now at work there, and notwithstanding
the fact thnt it is the oldest camp in Central
Arizona, it still imys first rate. Ditches have
lieen cut and water carried, when it is to bo
had, on some excellent ground. It will take
scores of years to work out tho diggings in
the vicinitr of Weaver.
Wc have often wondered why some trty ,
of men do not combine together, take water j
out of Lynx creek, and work tho scores of
gnlches at the Mexican Camp on Lynx
creek, six miles from Prescott. There can 1
no doubt of their richness. In 1C3 and '0-1
a great many Mexicans and a few white men
packed dirt to the creek from these gulches,
washed it in pans and made good wag for a
long time. We know of gulches in that vi
cinity that paid as high as an ounce of gold
to the pan. Of course the richest Hrtions
of most of these gulches are "worked out;"
that is, the dirt in them will not pay for pack
ing half a mile, in a fifty pmid sack, upon a
man1 shoulder, and washing it in a pan, but
all if them will pay well if properly worked
with sluices. From now until the latter part
of June next, Lynx creek will afford several
sluice-heads of water; there is plenty of
good timber 011 the ground out of which to
make lumber, but as a ditch would be easily
constructed very little if any fluming being
required, it might be quicker and cheaper to
purchase lumber at the mill. The ''gold of
that land is good," plentiful, and coarse, and
we hope some of our miners will sail into it.
Were we not wedded to scribbling and stick
ing type, we would tie to those gulches
nvghty fast.
Another good placo to try one's luck is
Wolf creek, the main tributary of Black
Canon, which rises in the high mtaa south of
the headwaters of Lynx and Big Bug creeks,
And runs cnxt until it emptied into Iliac!;
Canon. It is a respectable sized creek and
affords, during the winter and spring seasons,
as much, if not more than ten sluice-heads of
water, and scarcely ever lets than one sluice
head. It courses through an auriferous coun
try nnd contains gold. In the fall of 'C4 we,
oursclf, panned out, in about one day and a
quarter, the snug little sum of 10 in coarse
gold. We found it in the bed of the stream,
and, although the streak "gave out" it is not
likely that that was all the gold in the creek,
and wc cannot help but think there must be
some moro left. We found this at a point in
the creek about one-half mile above Hack
berry Camp.
Turkey creek, which might properly be
called the North Fork of Wolf creek, also
contains gold, but how much we do not know.
It rises south of Wolf creek, in a country' in
which there are a great man gold and silver
bearing ledges, passes close to the famous
Bully Bucno lode in Turkey creek district.
Both below and above the point at which
Wolf creek empties into Black canon, there
are a great many gulches that we know will
pay fair wages. Some of them have been
worked by Mexicans: who made them pay
well. Close to Dr. Willing's old camp there
are several gulches in which we have known
; persons to pick up, from off the naked bed
rock, pieces weighing from 1 to S9. Except
in the winter season, these guichew contain
no water, which is one reason why they have
not been worked. Of course, wc have not
mentioned tho crcoks south of Black canon,
which rise in tho Bradshaw mountain, and ns
a great many of them are known to contain
gold, a prospecting party might do well to
give them a trial.
QUARTZ MINING,
Although at present under a cloud, is
carried on vigorously at various points. The
Vulture mine, near Wiekenburg, about sixty
miles west from Prescott, continues to pay
well. The Vulture Mining Co.'s 20 stamp
mill is kept pounding uway night and day.
The five-stamp mill at this place is not yet
running, but will bo started to work as soon
as the owners receive belting from San Fran
cisco, which will be in n short time.
At Walker's Camp, on the head of Lynx
creek about eight miles south-east from Pres
cott, the miners arc now engaged in taking
out quartz, getting ready to start their aras
tras when a sufficient supplj of water comes.
Tho miners will run the "Thunderbolt"
crusher and nrar.tras belonging to it next week.
There is scarcely a sluico-hcad of water in
the creek.

former gentlemen are Milking iinth' 'Chase
UIp. ml n trotting very li'h rook. The
latter gentlemen are at woik upon the
'Chance.' The shaft on the Chance' is now
nearly 40 feet in depth ; the l.d:.e is widen
ing and tin rock is rich. Mr- HMick called
into tho office Inst Fun.'.ay, and showed it a
very rith .specimen of ore from the Mnzcpw'
lode, In tho llasoyoina district. The ppeci
men fus idwit an Iar,rc as a hen's cgjr, and
must kavo contained half an ounce of gold.
In lllg Bug district, work on Gray ft Co.'s

on the ledge nearly K O feet, and tho rock
taken fnt of It is said to be excellent. Be

showodftts tome bc.uitiful specimens of sul
phuret ore from this ledge, which he took to
California with him for the purpose of hav
ing thorn tested by Mr. Kibtel and other
miiiernltgit. The ledire is of huge propor
tion, arid conveniently Htuated for working.
Mr. Onty, we arc informed, design bringing
Mr. Kultel with him on hi? return to Arizona,
when hd. trill start in to work the 'Eugenie'
and 'GalW rock by thcchlorination proce.
Mr. K., die inventor of this proce, has tried
the rock '.from both tbeae ledge, and said
that chlorinatkw would make thorn pay, suro.
In about thirty days from thi time, the mill
will be running, and the furnaces will be in
full blast.
Bowers Brew, and John A. Rnh have
several men constantly at work upon the
'Dividend' mine. The rock continues good.
It is tho intention of the owners to start
their five-stamp mill and arastras soon. They
would hare been to work long ago bat for
tho scarcity of water.
Wc are told that the agent of the Bully
Bueno Mining Co., is on his way here from
Philadelphia, with means to pay off tho debts
and start up the Company's 20-stamp mill.
Reed, It is said, is also on his way here, but
nobodv knows how he is "heeled" in regard
to mom v matters. Wo lielieve nothing ha
been heard from Dr. Willing. It is to be
hoped that our rich mines will be made to
produce bullion before lon, and the chance,
just now, look favorable. e have great
faith in Mr. hustcl anil arc
that "he is the coining man.'
almost certain
The "Aiimy ok Tiin Colorado" What
it has Atiuiiri.mii:D. Hon. Win. II. Hardy,
of Hardjvillc camo up from that place with
the moil, and is now in Prescott. Mr. Hardy
is of the opinion tliat the spirit of the Ilual
apais is brokon,tmd that they will not again
trouble the whites. The Pah-Uteshave sub
mitted to the military authorities at Fort
Mohave, and have given up their arms, not
wishing to fight tho whites any more. We
hope they will live up to their promises.
Major Price's command lins itcourod the Ilual
lapai country from one end of it to the other
the past season, killed and captured over 100
Indian', and destroyed an immense amount
of provisions and war material. This eoin
mand have taught this murderous tribe a
lesson it will long remember. Mr. Hardy
assures us that the officers and men vied with
each other in doing their duty as soldiers.
Indian bunting and fighting is a very thank
lets, inglorious and laborions bo.ncss, yet
the "Army of tho Colorado" went into it
with a will, and have come out of it with
well earned laurels. A few more such cam
paign, and the people of our fair Territory
need not longer pay tribute with their lives
and property to the savages.
Indians Comb to Giiikk. Charley Murray
end a small jwrty of men recently ran afoul
of about 3o Indians (supposed to be Apache
Mohaves) near the Planet mine, on Williams
Firk, and made it might warm for the red
skir.s. They succeeded in killing three or
four of them, and wounding several others.
The Indians had flour, guns and ammunition
with them. Wc suppose they were on their
way to the mountains to carry out their
"friendly" professions by stealing and mur
dering. It i3 charged by some, that the In
dians get guns, powder and lead at La Paz,
and wc hojws, for the credit of the citizens of
that town, that such is not tho case. Hang
ing would be too good for tho white man who
would sell an Indian friendly or unfriendly
guns and amunition in this Territory.
The Arizoiiian has a great deal to say about
the "negative attraction of the Prescott
mines" which, "just now causes a general
exodus from there," (here) and claims that
the mines of Cababni district arc the richest
in the Territory. Then, why the thundor
don't you work them. We do not doubt tho
richness of your mines, but it looks a little
strange that, with your cheap jicon labor,
and the low price of provisions in Sonora,
you cannot make them shell out some of the
gold and silver which they arc said to con
tain. You do not claim to have seen old
Exodus down your way, and talk aa though
everything was lovely and adobes cheap n
dirt, yet your little old mud town has not
improved much in the last eight or ten years.
" What can the matter be ?" You certainly
must be waiting for tho capital, and the wind
instruments that accompany it to toot the
horn and inaugurate n new era.
