Wsti-r Onovh Dnrrwcr. Iwt little in the way of mining, Is being done in this district at this Uum. As soon as the planting mm h over, work will be started nm cerenil rleh minus. Itio Hro DnmniT-yiiHrtz mlnlog is at a stand still In Htg Ihig, and Is likely k remain hi until the return of ,Mr. Gray, who, we are told, will be here tow. Tito comtianios engaged In placer miauig are doing well, and !mvh no raon to complain. All whiter ami fprrng they have made, on an average, from four to ten dollars ter day to the man. Jim Thomas has sold his Interest in the eld Mex ican gulch, to a company or Coloredans. N. I.neoke ami others wore m town during tbe week. They say the water holds ont well. We haj beard it Intimated that several rai!l that are lying idle in Yavapai county will soon be set Ui work, ami we hop the rumor U true. Recently, at the llig tag mill, Wm. flavin built a small arastra. which he rnn with n small turbine wheel of his own make. He put into the arastra about three panmtlt of tailings, w hich Im picked ont or the creek, ground them for about tltrvo Ittfurs, cteauetl up, nnd got 311.CC cents out of thenu Wkavku Ifc.TKt(T. The -Me.vlotns are still working away in the old diggings In the vicinity Of "Weaver, with, we understand, good success. ickkxw no DumtKT. We Iave nothing new from Wlckenburg, exoejit theaniiotineamtait that work will sonu lte commenced on tbe nntt exten lien, east, of tbe Great Vulture Lode. Thoown cm have levied an askmaient of one dollar per foot, and have awaked to the importance of de vesting their rleh ground. Work will be eem menced wpmi this elaliti at an early day, ami we doubt not but tbat It will be round as rich and as large as any other portion or tlw ledge. Tlte Vulture Company's deep haft must new he down to a depth of about 150 feot. They were nt latost dt getting very rieti roek out of the tunnel. Their mill would be ready to start Mton. The Vulture Company's mill was running all the time, nnd as soon as the toomi that left here recently with lumber would arrive, an addition to the mill would be built, in which it is proposed to place oxtra concentrators, etc. Considerable farming ha.s been done in lite vicin ity of Wickenburg tlte present seasou, nnd the place Is tho most prosperous oiip in the Territory, We have no late intelligence from the mines In Yuma and Mnhavo countl!, but proiHiHis that work upon the Williams' Pork eopjier mines is still progressing. At Kureka, a mining town iu Castle Dome Dh-trict, ou the Colorado river, between Arizona City ami I Pax, mining k be ing conducted In n proper and sensible manner, and of course, pays. Wo havo heard of n loilu upon which parties are now at work north of tho Vulture lode, and close to the La I'm and Ptw cott wagon road, which promisee well. Wo un derstand tlmt It is being developed by Dr. W. W. Jones, of Im Pas, and I- C. Gray of this ptaoe.

Xnt having recrfrotl the Artuf niin for wmo time past, we, of course, do not know anything in relation to mining matters In that county, which contains some or the richest liver mlftes on this coast. A good many miner have recently spoken to us about tho trouble nnd vexation they are put to by thulr partners, when wishing to go to work and open up a claim, and we have talked with nine who are in favor of the California modi- of forcing men to work their claims, by giving their partners power to cell them out If they do not keep up their ends, when the company g incor porated. We have not examined this matter much, and do not cure to lead in It. If our min ers wish to adopt the California law, or some thing similar, they can do hj. We are satisfied, however, that hail sitch n law been In force in this Territory the past three years, were mines would now be developed. Ariuvals rnot Camkoknu.
