MiLwAGEEE, Wis., Nov. 23.—The Episcopalian n Convention hss come and grone, aud Jusion which was anticipated did not oc- ‘The trouble about the Catliedral was post- cur. poned, and m the quarrel over Trinity Mission the Bishop’s party prevailed. The last guestion came first, on a motion to admit ss a member of the Convention the Kev. Kitchie, the young clerzyman who ofliciates at the Trinity Mission. You must understand that St. John’s Parish, of which the Kev. Dr. Keene is Rector, was estab- lished on the South Side thirty vears ago. St. Fauls Parish was established a little earlicr on 1he East Side. St. James’ Parish came consid- .erably later on the West Side. Recently the Bishop established Trinity Mission on the South de, within what Dr. Keene clamns as tie exclusive territory of St Johw's Parish, without the cousent of . the Parish or Rector. There has been hostility to the new mission ever since upon the part of Dr. Keene and his adberents, and this has animatea soine of the opposition to the Cathedral plan, of whicn a full account Was given in THE TRB- UNE correspundence a few weeks ago. The “Frizity Mission question, like the Cathedral question,—1wo ugly sores,—were nursed slong Ly being postooned till the Diocesan Convention &hould meet, when an excited and angry pro- tracted meeting was auticipated over both. The question about the Mission, as stated. came up ecarly on the question of admitting the officiating clergyman to the Convention. The protest of Dr. Keene was a long, able, argumentative, and somewhst vituperative document, and i was conclusive on the point that there was no au- thority for the ercction of a mission withia his parish; and he inferred that there ‘was there- Tore no lawfui mission, and that the clergyman Dind no ngbt in tue Convention. ‘The bnllisnt, eloguent, and distinguished Dr. De- koven, of Racine, was present, armed at 2l points, ready to sustain 1lie Bishop's policy on both the disputed ques- tions. In replyto Dr. Keene’s argument be ergted that Triity Mission was estabhished in that part of Milyaukee which was in the adjoin- ing Town of Lake beyond the city limits, 2t the uime when Dr. Keene’s Purish of St. John was crected, and that consequently it was uot es- tablished within the St. John’s parochial terri- tory. This quibble was one of the smallest sivle. aud auywhere but in an_ecclesiastical Lody would have been received with contempt. 1f 2 person were arrzigmed for violatiue a city ordmance, and a shyster of a lawyer should at- tempt to clear him by showing that when the ordingnce was adopted the spot where the of- fense was committed was outside the city limits (though it had been atterwurd annexed), would betold by the Judge to_sit down, and the of- in woula probably fare punishment than as no false and, quibbling defense had been daevised. - So, of course, when the territory where Trinity Mission is located was attached 1o thut parc of the city covered by St. Jobn’s Parish, it was ineluded in the parochial charge ihe same as it was brought under the efvil ordi- ces of sthe city. But the cleryy were arraved 1o defend thie Bishop's policy whatever betide. and, notwithstanding severe opposition, it prevailed. The Cathedral question was, after u personal appeal by Bishop Welles, postponed il the Countil next spring. ‘This statement of the fact is not intended as an asscrtiou that the Bishop’s poliey is wrong. Probably the people of the South Side need the mission. Bui to defend the action by so shal- Jow = quibble was quite unworthy 2l concerned. “Ttie Cathedral trouble has been fully explamned. It was a remarkable fact that all” the ablest clergy were enlisted oo the Bishop’s gide " on this question also, except the local Rectoss, Fulton, of St. Paul's, Tnroop, of St. James’, and Kcene, of St.Jobn’s. Dr. Fulton led the opposition to the Cathedrel, and wuch comment was excited by his course, as be is 1 comparatively new-comer to the Diocese, and was even sticmatized by some in conversa- tion as a *-carpet-bagger.” ‘Ihis was unkind and unchristian, and cannot lead to ecclesias- tical burmouy in the future. fender worse his OTHER RELTGIOGS MATTERS.

A store filled with notions and other goods, each, article selling for 99 cents, was on Wisconsin strect, and a fire mysteriously cauzht a few nrlits ago, near the stove, doing the damagze above deseribed. 1t turned out that the insur- ance amounts to $22,000, while suspicious par- ties allege that the coure stock pf goods was not worth to exceed §7,000. - The law of this State is very explicit that, where property is insured, the amount written ;in the policy shall be rerarded as the valueof the property and measure of loss i case of its total destruction by fire, and the Supreme Court has susteived the validity ot this law. Insurance agents have had full notice of the statute and the court decisions which have been® extensively discussed and pubiished, and, in case of crookeduess on the part of the insurea, have only themselves to blame. The Hon. Emil Wallber has been appointed by Judere Small Court Commissioner, to fill the vaeancy caused by the lamented death of. Col. E. M. Hunter. " Mr. Wallber has_been City- Attorney for four years past. and will be a good officer. ~There were a dozen” applicants for this place, even before Col. llunter’s Iuneral, sev- eral wonths 820, but Judere Small properly re- buked their haste and indecency by declaring that he would not malke the uppointment till time had elspsed suflicient to allow of proper exinbition of respect to the dead. ‘I'wo bridal parties have occurred in legul circles the past week.

It is sald that Mr. Gilmore selected his residence in a State where the tHomestead and Exemption laws are 80 very liberal tnat he is secure in the enjuyment of a very bandsume property from numerous creditors in this Dity. An important decision bas been rendered by Judge Dyer, of the United States Court of this District, to the effect that the United Statesluw in relation to trade-marks is uncoustitutional, being in excess of the delezated power of Con- gress, and hence that the Federal Court has not, jurisdiction of suits for violations of trade- marks between citizens of the same State. ‘The new Revised Statutes which went into effect the 1st inst. have been very generally dis- tributed, and are in the hauds, generally, of pablic officers and attorneys. POLITICAL MENTION. There is au effort being made to piocure a registry law which will apply to city clections as well as to general clections. Heretofore a registration of voters has been had only for general elections, and the elections for ward and city officers bave been held untrammeled by its restrictions. The present State Registry law is undoubtedly an awkward and cumbersome burden on the sutfrage, and in some of its parts it is evidently unconstitutional, for it entirel excludes in some fnstances lawful voters from the ballot-box. A singular case in the First Ward at the recent election illustrated this fact. Dr. T. W. Williams w¢ave bis name to the registers at their sitting previous to clection; a man named R. W. Willlams gave his name at the same time, and in the hurry and con- fusion onme of them was omitted. On clection-day Dr. T. W. Williams ap- peared and offered his vote, but bis name was 1ot of course, on_the list, and it was thought that the “R. W. Williams” was in- tended for him, and his vote wes about to be received cn that name when the identical R. W, Williaws appeared and voted. There was no way by law in which the other Williams could then vote. A copy of the proposed new law has neen published, and it is decidediy not 13 =ood as the present one. J'bere is less talk adout the contest for the scat of E. C. Wall from the First Ward, clected to the Assembly on the Democratic ct. W. P, McLaren, the defeated Repub- lican candidate, refusestobe a party to the contest except upon incontestible evidence of frand. Ex-Senator Matt H. Carpenter, it is an- nounced, will be at home in about 2 week to take au active part in the Senatorial campaign. As it is conceded that the Chief Clerk of the Assembly will be given to Milwaukee County, the Repiblicans vannot do better than to give the office to Dr. C. J. Palmte, the veteran editor of the Hervid. But if a German is not to have it, then tet it 20 to Jobn E. Eldred. The most anioated tight that there has been in politics in this city for years will occur next ear when delegates are 10 be elected 1o the Re- publican State Convention. Gov. Ludington is already as good as iu the field as an avowed can- didate’ agumst Gov. Willism E. Smith for the nomination for the uext Gubernatorial term. It will be warm times. - At the city clection next spring there will be one Alderman elected in cach ward; that is, one-third of the City Council goes vut, aud the vacancies are to be filled. At present the Coun- cil is very nearly evenly divided politically. A Republican City Clerk was elected by the Aldermen in May last, but Mayor Black’s Democratic appointees were confirmed on a close vote. DLrobaoly cnough Repub- lican Aldermen will be eclected in the spring to zive that party a clear majority. The Mayor 2ud other city officers were chosen last April, and bold for two years. A special election will” be held Tuesday, Dec. 17, for the election of 8 mewmber of Assembly in the Eleventh District of this county, where W. W. Johnson (Rep.) and M. J. Egan (Dem.)

Font Yuma, Arizona, Nov. .—In my last let- ter from Tucson 1 promised to write again from Globe City, but business cngugements prevent- ed my keeping my promise. Ihave just arrived here, and as 1 cannot get away before evening I will at Teust begin the promised letter, even it I lhave to finish it some other time. Oct. 25 L arrived in Globe City on my return I had come to the conclusion to mive the Globe district the prefercuce should 1 suceeed in forming the desired business connce- tions. -According to iy best judzment, the mines in the Globe district are as good as, it not bet- ter than, those situated in the southern regions of Arizona. The veins of the ore are perbaps not as large, but they are, judging from appear- ances, considerablyricher. 1f theclimateistaken into comsideration, the Globe district is vastly preferable to Southern Arizona. Work need need uot be stopped on a single day throughout the entire yeur on account of the weather. During the summer the daysare, of course, very warm, but, the nights being cool, reliet is afford- ed. The water is very good and available for all purposes. Wells for family use need not be sunk over thirty fect deep: for manufacturing purposes an ample water-supply is found by boring from sixty to 100 feet. The Pinal Moun- tains contain timber enough for several years to come, ana furpish firc as well as building mate- rial. A saw-mill has been running there for over a year. As indieated fn former letters, I had made arrangements with Messrs. Buck & Hayse to cnter into business with them, provided 1 could rafsc the necessary capital in Chicago or cls where. These gentlemen had sold the Julws Mine to St. Louls partics, but tne sale was made void, as I learned on my return from Tueson, by the failure of the purehasers to comply with the terms of the sale. Since L had not seen all the property owned by Messrs. Buck & Hayse before T started for Tucson, I gladly accepted their invitation to accompany them on A TOUR THROUGH TIE MOUNTAINS. ‘The mountains are at present reached only by following an old Indian trail, and, since our ob~ jective point was gbout twenty Imniles distant from Globe, it beeame necessary to spend at least one night camping out. We started carly in the morning on horseback; our provisions were carried by & donkey. The little patient animal was loaded down with a perfect camp- ing outfit, and with provisions in such quantity as if we were starting on a month’s journey through the wilderness. The way to the Pinto River, from which the entire district derives its name, led us through the Copper Canon. -The nameindicates that copper is found there; but nowhere had I been told, nor had I read in any of the works on Arizons, thut copper was to bo found in _this part of the world. However, I - soon found, the cauon ot its name for mood reasohs. After a ride of about two hours we saw at the entrance of the canon a pointed rock. surmounting the hils like a pyrawid, of u very peculiar apoearance. I was not a little surpriséd to find that this rock was nothing less than copper ore, the greeuish hue of which produced in the bright sunlight a realy beautiful effect. My companions, who are scquaimted with every foot of ground in this vicinity, having repeatedly explored these canops aud hills, called my attentlon to enor- mous quantities of copper-ore croppivg out of the ground all around the pyraamid. But little blasting is requircd to ke all this ore ready for the market. ‘The only trouble is, su far, the great cost of transportation, making the mining of ore which does not contain a very considerable percentage of silver or gold rather unprofituble for the present. Both mctals are, however, found very frequently with the copper ore in this vicinity. ~ I took two pieces of cop- per ore from wwo diflerent mines and had them assayed; the one contained 71 per cent of cop- per and 102 ounces of silver per ton; the other, 43 per cent of copper, 15 ounces of silver, and $2.50in rold. So far, not a single-copper-mine lias been worked, but after the completion of the railway this branch of industry will un- doubtedly also be aeveloped. “I'he ride through the CopperjCanon took us over an hour; during the time [ had frequent occasion to observe that wherever we passed stagnant water it was of a dark-ureen color. and that ull the stones and rocks over which water was flowing were a5 green as if they had been painted. Along towards night we reached OUR CAMPING-GROUND. The horses and the donkey were freed of their load, and Mr. Bayse proceeded to prepare sup- per atter he and the rest of the compauy, had braced them up with a2 drop of ’‘rot- gut” The supper tasted splendidly. During the mignt feit that the cold season was at huod, and 1 found it necessary to wrap my blankets tightly around me; when I awoke in the morning my icecoated beard reminded me that frostis no stranger cven 10 Arizona. Immediately after daybreak we took coffce, and then sturted agaix for home, but not the same way we bad come, for we wanted to sce anotlier mine owned by the gentlemen, called the Rowen Mine. About a year a2o my Iricods, while on a tour of exploration through the mountains, found un the ground two &lu s of ore, cach weizhing about two pounds, which they imwediately recogmzed as gold ore, They had the picces assayed and found the oue indicating $44,000 in "gold and 316,60 in silver, the other indicating 810,000 in wold and between $300 aud $400 in silver per ton. They have since been digzivg cousiderably to et at the source of this rich ore, but have so far not suceeeded in finding any vein of gold. They bave, however, struck 2 vein of silver which it would pay very well to work ifa wagon-road should be built. ‘'his discovery of gold created o dittle stir on the Paciic coast at the time. Tt is rather peenliar that several similar instances have occurred in the Globe district, und one fecls'inclined to suppuse that under the surface more of this vre must be in existence. Before returning to Globe, we went alittle out of our way to see the **LOST GULCIL" JMINES, - where, in the bed of a small stream, zzoid dust has been found for several years, and wwhere, about a year ago, a German discovered a gold miue, which he “now works in company witha Mr. Dempsey. As they have no ma- clinery, they work oo the old Mexican plan, which yields them ouly 40 or 50 per cent of the real value of their ore. The owuers are, how- ever, well pleased with the results obtained tous far. They have sunk a shaft about fifty feet deep, and’ run from it two tunmels, each between thirty and forty feet long. The Lost Guleh district comprises about two square miles. It bids fuir to yicld great treas- ures, provided the miners have suflicient capital to work their flndsand to build mills in which their ore can be reduced. That gold is found tl:ere is shown by the fact of Mr. Leihdolf send- ing some 3300 worth every week to Hise & Snry- ock in Globe City, which he gets out with the help of only three men. ¥ The next morning we started to visit the Julius, Chloride, and Dunderbure Mines, the property of Buck & Hayes. The Julius aud Chloride Mines adjoin each other, and cover a space of about 900 feet long by 1,500 fect wide. The Dunderberg is a continuation of the Julius; giving the lat- teran area of 600 by 3,000 feet, and to the Chloride an area or 1,500 by 300 feer. These mines were discovered some nine months ago by finding some very rich picces of orc on the surface. The Julius and the Chloride are situated on the northern face of a very stecp hill rising about 1,000 feet above a well-timbered plain, that also contains plenty of water. The Dunderberg runs from the north side over the top of the hill in a southeasterly direction. These three mines do not run out into the sur- face, but they are what the mioers term blind veins. The lucky discoverers went for that hill hike moles, and after persistent dizging they Were rewarded by finding a veln which prom- ised a rich yield. They immediately sunk a small, narrow shaft and three small, narrow tuunels, just big enough for one man to work in boring holes, by which the rock might be blasted. They very soon struck the richest ore ever found in the Globe district. At present the shutt is but forty feet deep, with tunnels but twenty-five feet lonz; yet the owners claim to bave taken from them _ alread over $25,000 worth of ore, of whlc{ some 312000 worth is still held by them. I shall bring two picces with me, taken {from the Julius and the Chloride Mines. The ore of the former contains some copper; that of the latter a large amount of chloride of sil which led to_giviog the mine its name. Thc citizens of Chicavo will be astonished when I show them a plece of ore weixhing but 1065 pounds, which is estimated to be worth over % This mine, with a great many others, I have sccured under very favorable terms; and, if I am not greatly mistaken, any company working them must have large zuins. 1 am told on all sides that the Juiius Mine promises better thau the Stonewall Jackson Mine yielded when it was in about the same stage ot development. The Stoncwall canuot mow- be bought for less than halfa million. After having arranged our business and passed thie neeessary pupers, I took leave of my many friends in Giobe and STARTED ON MY JOURNEY HOME on the morning of Nov. 4. The even while engazed in packing up my thivws, surprised by a very agreeable ¢ which 1 3 not let pass unnoticed, since it will pleas fricnds' us it pleased me. Mr. Charl Sover, a German, and a mraduate *of the Freiberg Mining School, the owner and conductor of an ussay-office in Glove City, well acquainted with the mining proverty hod just acquired, came to me with the re- quest to admit him as the tirst subscriber for £2,000 in the company about to be organized by me. My surprisc at this unexpected offe which was substantiated on the spot by his i sisting on my taking the securities for the woney atouce, wuas so great, ITcould hardly control my emotion. I hope this incident will _encourage the citizens of Chicago to join me in my enterprise, whose success depends cn- tirely om my ability to oranize 2 company. Latc in the evening of Nov.5 1 arrived ot Florence, the connty seat of Pinal County, to whicn the Globe district also belongs. It”was the night of the election, aud I was not a littie surprised at the amount ol excitement I found goinz on. The entire city seemed up andin arms. Party lines are not known_here; every- body runs independent, and on his own merits, and for every office there was u number ol can- didates in the field. Mr. Hise, of Glove, was a candidate for Supervisor; a short-time before my departure from Globe I had, at the request of agreat many, spoicen ata meeting in bis favor; he carried Florence by a large majority. I mention this fart s a great mauny of Mr. Itise’s triends live in Chicazo. T'he nextday, Nov. 6, I had to stayin Florence: to scitleup some business. andfor theiirst time intwo months did Isec a cloudy sky. Towards noon it began to rain, and it reatly kept raining all the rest of the day. The fol- lowiog moruing when Ilett Florence a new surprise awalted me—the tops of the Pinal *Mountains were covered with snow ! THE JOURNEY TO YUMA, which lasted three long days and two still longer nizhts in the mail-coach, was as dreary as it wae tedious and uninteresting, still it was less burdensotne than it was two months before, ‘The raio had fallen over some sixty miles of the road. and so we did not have to suffer trom the dust as we did berore. We again possed in the vieinity in Maricopa through villazes of the Pima Indians. On my journey out I had scen but a few Indians, and their cabins preseuted a desolate appearance. But now they swarmed with Indians; they all seemed busy in getting ready for the winter. Several cabins were unroofed, apparently tfor the reason that they were to be provided with new roofs. Ialso saw a number of Indians on norseback,—a really splendid sight. “Thesc fellows are as stralzht as arrows, and carry themselves clegantly in the saddle. They fenerally wear red flannel shirts, over which their raven-black bair hangs down very long, sometimes two or three feet. They bardly ever wear any hLead- covering, for their bair is their pride. No hand- somer sight can be imarined than that offered by those sous of the wilderness when they rush in the bricht sunlight at lightning speed ou their fine horses through the prairie, their long hair floating in the air. ) Near Yuma I also noticed, to my surprise, la- borers engaged in_constracting the railroad. The Southern Pacific Company intends to com- plete this winter the roudved from Yuma to Maricopa Wells, some forty miles west of Flor- c¢nee, and have the rails Jaid. That will un- doubtedly vastly advance tbe development of Arizona. Up to Maricopa the road is miserable, the country desolate, aud the land worthless, At last Lgot to Yuma. Before starting from there 1 bad the zood luck to see un Arizona circus compaoy parade through the. streets. There were five horses in the procession, and a camel carrying on his back an old he-zoat. The pro- cession was led by five musicians, who beat the Chinesc I had heard in San Francisco by a good deal in the matter of discordunt sounds, and the tail-end of the procession was formed by some fifty naked Indians with their squasws. They were an awlul, nauseating sight. The Yuma Indians are not supported by the Gov- ernment, neither do they till the soil, and they roam avout clothed with nothing -save an apoi- oxy for a fie-leaf, The men do not look so very bad In their airy costumes, but the women look shockingly. The men are tall and well-built, but the squaws, as a rule, are low in stature, flabby, and awfully dirty. AT SAN FRANCISCO. *_8ax Fraxcisco, Nov. 16.—On the evening of Nov. 9 I poarded a sk g-car at Yuma for my return trip to Saa Francisco. On the morn- ing following I awoke refreshed after a good rest. 1In Los Anzeles we made a stop of some three hours, and I improved the chance to sce a little more of this city than I could while pass- ing through before. I beeame agreeably i pressed with the mazniticent business-blocks, 1esidences, and with the well-puved strects. The residences are gencrally brick, some dis- tanee back from the sidewalk, giving them tandsome front gardens. and I must say that the Iadies of Los Awvgeles have availed them- selves much of this grand opportunity to dis- play their fine floral taste. 1 found many of them engaged in_ those front gardens maKing bouguets. As the majority of them be- lonzed to the sweet-sixteen class, 1 sup- pose - their floral study was carried on for the benefit of members of the stronger sex. Roses, geraniums, pinks, and other flow- ers, were seen io full blossom.—sea-roses of the size of cabbaze-heads displayed their fragrant beauty. Inone ot the streets I noticed the carriage-factory of a Mr. Lichtenberger, 2 broth- er of our Chicagro Lichtenberger, Iam told. He is doiniz very well, Tam told, and I regret not baving had the time to eall on him. ‘Ihe hand- somest church buildiog in the city is the Catho- lic Cathedral. When 1, by chance, entered it, the Bishup Was just mounting the pulpit to preach to the congremation; to judze from his ronuuciation, he is a foreizner; by his looks, a Mexican. He spoke from the text: * Ren- der unto Cwmsar the things that are Cuwxsar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s.”™ The liberal views he advocated in his _sermon really surprised me He seemed to allude to the Kearney movement, for lic stronely admonished "bis hearers to obey like rood- Catholics the laws of the country. ‘The church is a larze and handsome buiiding, stauding on a street which boasts of two rows ol the handsomest shade-trees Iever saw. I recretted that my time was so short, and un- williogly hurried away to board the train that started at 1 p. m., and landed on Nov. 11 in splendid condition at San Francisco. My fricnds here wondered al my changed appearance. Arizoow’s sun has almost blackened me, and [ lock somewhat litie n half-breed wreaser. My nose, after having shed its skin at least twenty times, is now piteh black. I am really sorry it will be bleached out again before I reactrChicazo. My hands are blackened also, for I have not known the luxury .of gloves for a good while. Still my health, shattered by the storms which have broken over me during the last few vears, has been wonder- fully recuperated in the beautiful climate of Arizona, votwithstanding the many hardshivs { bave undergone. Except in the Jow lands ou the rivers, where some fevers prevail, nobody scems to besick. A roung physician, I met in Globe, 1 saw again in Yuma on his way to Ore- gon, and he saysof Arizona: “There is nobody sick tnere, except somebody shoots himself or somebndy else. Itis the d—est country for our profession I ever saw.” And I fuily believe him! A. C. d’zsma. ————— ‘00 DON'T KNOW WHAT i DOT FOR MY DAR’ !
