SONORA’S OLD MINES. Kjt Mclntyre and the Romance of Their Exceeding Ritchness. From the Chicago Tribune. Hapt. Allen Mclntyre, who rmifi the Lake Company’s steamer Peerless be- Ken Chicago and Duluth, has just returned E a winter's sojourn in Sonora, old K[jeo, where he has been for health and Capt. Mclntyre is one of those in the despatches a few' days ago ■having made an important mining Bvery in the Sierra Madre Mountains— ■ discovery, as alleged, being no less than of mines w orked by early Mexicans, ■ from which millions U}x>n millions supposed to have l>een taken to enrich former Incas and the later Emperors Princes. While there is, perhaps, more Bomar.ce than reality in' the story of the H mines or the prospective wealth of the Mlcagoans who are said to be interested in '■ And, Capt. Mclntyre’s story of his in Sonora is certainly interest ■ He comes back as brown as a berry with a skin as tough as a Mexican's. He Hompanied the camp of surveyors under Ham<m (l of ex-Lieut. Flipper, IT. S. A., the colored West Pointer who gained Hh notoriety a few years ago. A Chicago company, which has a large Mexican in Sonora, employed Flipper and three others to survey the eastern bound- Kof their grant, and the jolly Captain B,t along in a spirit of adventure, and jK to ro ugh it awhile in Sonora for the .^K e gt of his healtii. He comes back restored and wildly enthusiastic the climate and resom-ces of that old Mexico. The Captain has the greater portion of the districts ■Montezuma, Arispe, and Saulipaha on HEleba>'k, and describes the region as a land flowing with milk and honey. "food upon a thousand hills, and bees K,-ni in the canons and rocky fastnesses. K to the reported mineral discoveries, K> t . Mclntyre does not pretend to be an in such matters. He brought several specimens of the ore from groups, a portion of the so-called lost IBies. but to the eye of experience in such the ore does not threaten a bonanza. & ore is free milling, but the highest assay for it is S6O a ton, and this is carried ir a vein not much over three or four Ht wide, it is said, however, that much ore is being worked in ft feeble way Mexicans mother parts of theTuyoja ■cap. “What interested me most,” said ISLpt. McTntvre,” was the dreadfully rough we bad to traverse to get to this incognita. The region lies about 100 iu au air line southeast of Torres, a Option on the Guaymas branch of the and Topeka road. The country is ■elightful one until you strike the foot ■s of the Sierra Madre range and then it grandly wild. Our party clambered miles and miles where even the mules hardly get a footing.” ■“Were the stories of Flipper’s finding ■ie records in an old ruined mission eor H‘N°t exactly. Flipper did make the ac- however, of an American there An had married the niece of a famous old i Sire, who lived a century or more ago, and Hs American had a large library, contain- U some works over 200 years old. Flipper Spaimish thoroughly, and he went some of these old bboks and rftanu ■g of where to look for the abandoned regions of Guyanoca and Tayoja. and Kruse went after one and M. J. |Hwer, a miner in Mexico, and myself went ■ the other. The story published of ruins arastias, and other remains of m abandoned industry are correct. It was Hghty interesuug to me to go through ®sc oki workings. 1 believe within a radius mile I could have counted over 100 pfennigs to these ledges. So far as we could there are three ledges converg- H? toward a centre. I have no doubt that development by modern mining will show that these ledges come though, of course, that is only One can see that these mines lieeu worked in a most primitivemeth ■. Even now they are not wholly ■andonel. We found one aged Mexican a burro who was getting out ore from w here he had tapped one of the He told us that his burro could ■rrv 250 pounds of ore. This he took some ■n miles down the stream, where another ■ex:can had an arastra, and there the ore Has worked. Each cargo, as he called the Huto’s load, netted him about S6O, but hav- Hg got that much there was no more hnin- H,:~ until the money was exhausted. These Hui'-s 1 have no doubt are very valuable, Hit it will take heavy capital to operate Hv'm—especially those in the Tayoja group. Hliev are silver mines—much more costly to Herk. The Guyanoca mines are gold, and H they are as represented—l did not see Hrm—they are undoubtedly a bonanza.” ■ ‘What other evidence did you find that H< c mines were worked by tlie ancients?” ■ "<. none, but the ruined adobe houses, the Hrecked araatras, and the tunnels that had Hr'-s ago caved. There were three or four H>dent ‘dumps’ through which trees were ■rowing, and I saw one broken arastra that Hsian oak tree, nine or ten inches in diain- Hei', running right up through the bottom. His years and years since that arastra was Harked. But.” continued the Captain, “I Has more struck with the agricultural and Battle-raising possibilities of Sonora than Hnything else. I rode over thousands and Housanas of acres of as flue grazing and Agricultural lands as the sun ever shone ■pun. Men without capital could amass ■oitunes here in no time raising cattle for ■lie American market. Sonora is veritably B cattleman’s paradise. There is a lovely Blimate, abundant water, native grasses by ■he league, plenty of shade from thousands ■f oaks in the huge pastures: no snow, no ■'“hi. blizzards, and consequently no loss of ■toek. Mexican herders—anil no more ■faithful set of workers can lx: found any where—can be hired for 50c. a day ami eunrd themselves. Native cattle are dirt cheap. Cross them with American bulls tad the result is some fine stock.” "Captain, if Sonora is such a paradise, why is jt that it has lain so long dormant 1” "Oh, want of population and want of a marker. No Mexicun ever thinks of pro ducing more of any thing than he wants himself or than he can barter with a neigh bor. There is really no market for anything. Railroads are remedying this, and emigra tion will do the rest when the tide sets in. It any one is fond of a pastoral life, and cares little for society and the comforts of a ciglier civilization, he can go to Sonora, set up a domain, and live like a baron. Another thing that has retarded the growth of Sonora lias been the ever-dreaded raids of the Apache Indians. That is all over now. bonora is just as safe to live in or travel in 88 any portion of the United States.” MARK TWAIN’S FIGHT. Arrested for Assault, Fined $1 and Presented With a $5 Bill. From the New Vork Star. Samuel Clemons in his younger days had obeyed the advice of Horace Greeley, of “Young Man, go Wost,” and ill 1854 was working at type setting in the job office of the St. Louis Republican. As in all other job offices there was now and then a scarcity of certain letters in some of the fonts. This led to n deal of what all printers know as “gouging” other fellow’s cases who were fortunate enough to nave a reasonable supply. Young Sam hud been careful to keep his case well filled, hut o certain “sort,” which happened to lie scarce through its having to be frequently used in the joo then being set up, was mys teriously “gouged” by someone of the other printers. Sam determined to watch for the depredator, and one morning caught Jim Blake helping himself. There hail pre viously been a disagreement between the two, and t},e temper of both quickly came to the surface when Sam ordered Blake to £ut the “Karts” back. Blake gave Sam a srse invitation to go to the place where broken type is always deposited, and squared off” with his fists at Clemens. ‘Even in his younger day* Sara Clemens **d teamed how to put up liis hands, and he went for Blake like a small typhoon. They sparred away at each other for a few moments, the old roremau and other printers urging them both to “pitch in.” After a few blows had been exchanged, Blake’s pro boscis having started a leak, he found that Sam was a cooler and better boxer than he had calculated upon. He made a rush to clinch Sam, but the future humorist was too smart for him, for, mov ing aside a step or two, he landed a conple of ringing blows upon the side of Blake’s head that not only laid him prone upon the floor, but by the force of the Dlows knocked him under a frame, capsizing a half dozen cases of type over the whipped fellow. The defeated “gouger” halloaed “Murder! Enough! _ Let me up!” and Sam said he was satisfied if Blake would promise not to make any more raids on his case. Blake crawled off home, washed up, put plasters on his eyes and face, rubbea him self with liniment, and then proceeded to the police court. He j:ound Judge Jecko, one of the greatest jokers and the most popular Justice in St. Louis, on duty. Blake demanded that a warrant be issued for the arrest of Samuel Clemens for an attempt at manslaughter. The Justice listened, with his keen black eyes twinkling, to the re hearsal of the efforts of Sam to slaughter Blake, and advised him to go to the Republican office and apologize to the victor, and abjure “gouging” for the future. Blake would not listen to any such advice, and Judge Jecko finally issued a warrant for Clemens on a simple charge of assault. The warrant was served in a few moments, the office being only a few blocks distant. Sam was duly escorted to the court room by a constable, attended by his fellow typos. His appearance was that of a natty, well dressed, almost dudish young man, with rosy cheeks and a pleasant countenance, de noting anything but a pugilistic propensity. Judge Jecko put him through the usual g)lice court examination, and listened to lake’s vivid description of the savage character of the assault upon him. The Judge, however, like the crowd of specta tors present, considered the matter, as he stated it, as one of those cases where the old Latin adage came in very appropriately, thought Clemens had simply applied what was due to the occasion, and said he must have been incited by the adage Fiat justitia ruat caelum , which, Judge Jecko said, being translated into the St. Louis vulgate, meant, “Let justice be done, though the neavens fall.” The Judge then said the laws must be enforced, and, as Clemens had admitted that he had thrashed Blake to his heart’s content, and would do so again on similar provocation, he felt that the pal ladium of liberty would be placated by im posing a fine of sl, without costs of court, upon Samuel Clemens for violating the laws, peace and dignity of the State of Mis souri and the ordinances of the good city of St. Louis. Clemens forthwith produced an old-fash ioned Mexican silver dollar and handed it to the clerk of the court. Judge Jecko came down to the floor after adjourning the court and told Sam and his friends that he had not had so much fun for years, and proposed that all should adjourn to the hotel. He then handed Clemens a $5 bill to pay for drinks for the crowd, and the affair ended with cheers for the plucky printer who would not submit to “gouging’’ either at his case or in an impromptu fight. Blake took the next day’s train for Cin cinnati, and it is doubtful if he has ever since made himself known to the now cele brated Mark Twain. Sam Clemens shortly after became identified in some business with the celebrated Blair family, and ob tained through them a position as clerk on a Mississippi steamer, where he picked up his cognomen of “Mark Twain.” He has always manifested a soft side for the printers up to the present time, but he has never referred to the above triumph in a pugilistic encounter, and it would probably never have come to light had not a journal ist in this city } who was then a brothel printer, related rt to a reporter at an up town club a few evenings ago. SLAVES IN MEXICO. Bondage In Which the Peona Are Held by Fraudulent Masters. Edgar Lee Vance in the Inter-Mountain. A good deal has been told and written of the cruelties in subterranean Siberia, but I very much doubt if the situation of any con vict chained in an underground gallery is nearly as appalling as that of hundreds and hundreds of the Mexican peon slaves toiling within a day’s journey of the land of the free. Ido not say that this is true of all mines; at many of them, and particularly those owned by American or English com panies, the management is humane and ad mirable in every particular, but it is true of some. In these it is no unusual thing for a i>eon to be murdered by some cruel task master, in plain sight of his wife, who works by his side, hears his dying shriek and is powerless to raise her hand to save. This is no fancy picture, but a dreadful and repeated reality. „ It is surprising how little of this is known, but it is surprising how little is > known in general of interior Mexico. There are thou sands of square miles where peonage is a sacred institution and a “white man” is as great a curiosity as a hippograff or a unicorn would be. There whole families are wearily grinding away at debts they had no more to do with than with the deluge. Some ances tors they never saw or heard tell of, drank too much mescal one day, or lost a few dol lars at monte, or was tempted to buy a gilded sombrero on credit, and the mischief was done. That they live in the darkest sort of ignorance and misery goes without saying, else some fine morning they would simply quit being peons and all the j-owors that De, at least in Mexico, could iiot re establish the old regime. The Gardens of Egypt. From the Brooklyn Magazine. . At tho beginning of Murch the gardens of Egypt are really wonderful; the orange and lemon trees spread their most pungent odor: the rose trees are covered with innumerable flowers; the palms, with their green and white crowns, swing there iu the wind; the oleanders there border the uvenues; on the lawns, anemones, annual and perpetual flow ering pinks, chrysanthemums, violets, zin nius, periwinkles, snap-dragons, mignonette, pansies and jjetunias blend their innumera ble colors with the green of the trees, bushes and shrubs. Groups of bamboo lift here and there their long green or golden steins, crowned with an immenso plume of pretty little trembling leaves. One comprehends on seeing these stems, which assume in a few months enormous proportions, the cruelly ingenious punishment uf the Chinese iu binding a criminal to a young bamboo. The plant grows and the wretch is quartered in a few weeks. No wood is lighter or more useful than that of the bamboo. One does not understand why tho Egyptians neglect to plant it along the canals and on every cultivated land, where it grows so well. But what gives, nt least during winter and spring, the most smiling aspect to tho Egypt ian gar dens are the great sheets of rose bougain villeas that cling to tho walls, the tine:-; and groups of foliage, und which display every where the varied and exquisite tints of their flowers. The bougainvilleas is certainly the iinest of climbing plants. During five months it flowers under the winter sun, take shades of extreme delicacy—one might say a light rose trail, the intensity of which every play of light varies. The aloes, the ugave, attach them'dvee on rocky slopes. On the banks of tho water com-ses the blue lotus and the papyrus still revive antique reminiscences. Grass cannot bo raised in Egypt. The layer of roil is so thin that the sun dries it up immediately, and unless the grass lie constantly submerged, it turns yel low and perishes at once. It (k not the beat alone that produces this result, for there is very much fine grass in the tropics; but the heat, accompanied with tho .shallowness of the soil, renders the culture of grass impos sible in Egy pt.. It is with difficulty that a few isolated blades of grass sprout during winter along tho’ Nilo and the canals; they disappear as soon us spring begins, so that everywhere in the country where artificial cultivation finishes, the dry and hare desert I logins. In the plain of grass a pretty little verbenneen is used, and this is oucounterod everywhere, the same as grass is encoun tered in America. THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY. MAY 19. 1887. COTTON. An Interesting Letter About the First Shipment of It from This Country. Georgia was settled with a three-fold ob ject in view; first as a place of refuge for that worthy class of English people who could find no field of action in their native land; secondly, as a barrier of free laborera between the Spaniard of Florida and the slave-holding colonies to the north, and thirdly, to supply England with the silk and wine derived from France and Bpain. The first design made her very soon a house of refuge from religious intolerance, the secoud was impracticable in a climate where the white man could not clear the forests and labor under the influence of the summer suu, and the tail'd failed from several causes that exist to this day. But the silk was soon supplied by a material which afterward became so important in commerce as to give ‘rise to the saying “cotton is king.” The first proclamation of the advent of this article is from Bethesda, May 13, 1742, in a letter from James Haber sham, then President of the Bethesda Insti tution, of which letter the following is a copy, viz: “To Gen. Oglethorpe, at Frederica: “I have desireclMr. Hunter to send all the cotton we have, if Mr. Headly will take it in. If not, he will send a sample. We ha ve but little of this country grovvth, and shall leave your excellency to put a price upon it. But the West India, of which the sample is a part, cost us chiefly 12d. sterling per pound, and cannot be afforded for less than fid. per pound. I know it would fetch considerably more in England, but trouble, risk and charges would attend sending it there. I had rather dispose of it for less to your ex cellency. It has all been milled, is the same, our weaver acquaints me, as is sold upon London keys. I have desired Mr. Hunter, likewise to send your excellency some wool, skins and hides, which I judge will be ac ceptable at Frederica. I cannot fix any price on them, but must take what they are worth at your market.” To this, Mr. William Neyle Habersham, who make this extract from original manu scripts, adds: “I cannot find the letter about the ship ment of the twenty bales of cotton, all the letters of 1752 to 1775 were destroyed by Sherman, in Burke county, during the war, but I can take oath to the fact that he loaded the ship here and sent twenty bales to a Mr. Dillon, his agent in New York, where the ship went to finish her loading, as all ships did iu the earliest days of the colony, and Dillon cleared the cotton for him in New York. It was about 1755 or 1766.” R. W. H. The Most Prominent Russian. Odessa Correspondence London Daily News. As M. Katkoff is just now the most promi nent jierson in the political as in the journal istic world of Russia, it may not prove un interesting if I give you some brief particu lars of his public career. Michael Nikiflro vitch Katkoff was born at Moscow in 1818, and is therefore now in his 63th year. After being educated in his native city M. Katkoff proceeded to Konigsberg and subsequently to Berlin, in both of which places be dili gently pursued a course of studies prepara tory to a professorship in the University of Moscow, where he in due course filled the chair of philosophy. About the year 1848 M. Katkoff, like most of the representatives of the intellect of his country, became "suspect,” and was subjected to the surveil lance of the police. At that period all the chairs of philosophy in Russia were abol ished, and of course be ceased to occupy his. Subsequently he made frequent and lengthy visits to friends iu the Isle of Wight, and manifested a marked predilection for English institutions. In 1856 he founded a monthly review, the Russian Messenger , which was at first a Liberal organ, that is, as far as any Russian organ may be thus termed. To'the Russian Messenger Tsche drin, the celebrated Russian satirist, was one of the earliest contributors, and it was in that review he first published his Gubem skie Otseherki (Sketchesof Provincial Life). Turgenieff was also n contributor to the Messenger , in which first appeared his Otsy i Detv (Fathers and Sons) and other works. In scholastic literature M. Katkoff wrote only two books. “On the Elements and Forms of the Slavc-Russian Language,” and “A Sketch of the Most Ancient Period of Greek Philosophy.” He alone founded and edited the Russian Messenger , but he had a companion iu the editorship of the Moscow Gazette, Prof. Leontieff, an old schoolfellow and colleague, and at all times a close and inseparable friend. M. Katkoff early displayed strong imagi* native power, and his strength lay—in his best days at least —less iu criticism than in the creative faculty. His guide, philosopher and friend was Prof. Leontieff, whom he afterward made director of his Lyceum on the establishment of that institution in Moscow. About two years previous to the last Polish revolution, M. Katkoff began an onslaught against the unfortunate Poles, which he earned on so fiercely that the government interfered. This may' be said to have have been tho turning point in his career. He defied the government. It or dered him to publish its censure for a given number of day's in his own journal under a penalty of 2,000 roubles a day. This censure was worded so severely as to be directly in sulting to him. The first day fixed for its publication arrived, but the Moscow Gazette contained no hint of the matter. The Russian newspapers were as tonished at M. Katkoff’s temerity. The penalty was imposed and paid for eleven (lays. The censure was not only never pub lished, but tho government ultimately re turned the fines. M. Katkoff obtained a triumph. Following closely upon this event came the Polish revolution of 1803. His prophecies were fulfilled. He was feted and flattered. Deputations of students from all the universities went to Moscow to con gratulate the far-seeing politician and versa tile scholar and journalist. Since that time M. Katkoff lias been a powerful factor in the imperial policy of the empire. Leontieff died about ten years ago. This event pro duced such a deep effect on M. Katkoff that his life was for some time despaired of. In the latter years of .Turgenieff’s life political differ ences arose between M. Katoff and the Rus sian publicist. After 1880 Turgenieffs nuinc never appeared in the Moscow Gazette. When the groat writer died, and the Russian press, in mourning columns, teemed with laudatory obituary notices and biographical sketches of the patriot, poet, and novelist, the Moscow Qar.ct'O gave not the slightest notice of the event. This was perhaps the most unworthv act of M. Kat koffs journalistic career. There is this much to be said of M. Katoff tliat he possesses the courage of his opinions. It 1- impossible, indeed, to withhold a certain admiration of his character as a politician and journalist. If Russia possessed a few more men of his stamp, ana they were devoted solely to the welfare of the people, the sorely needed redemption of the country would be rapidly brought about.
