,are sluicing and making wage*.... A. B. Riser^made a discovery on a bar nearQold Run, and^are engaged in running a tunnel one hundred^and fifty feet. They get from fire to ten^cents per pan, but are piling the dirt to sluice^in the spring. On this bar there baa already^been over thirty claims recorded....In Stet^^j ling, Capt. Maltby it running his mill upon^' rock taken from tbe Rising Run, a lode situ-^j ated in this district. Thu gulch will per^^haps be one of the most busy mining locali^^ties in the Territory, and will furnish employ^^ment to several hundred men.
Billiards.There is a pleasure in^store for those of our citizens who appreciate^and admire a fine game of billiards (and who^does not^) on ths morning of January 1st, at^the Helena Theatre, will be played a French^carom game of billiards of 250 points up. for^j $600 a side, between John J. McLean and^' John N. Rodrigo, two of the beet players at^j the game in the Territory. Mr. McLean is a^' moet elegant master of the cue, playing with^a ^nunchalence^and artistic touch that is sur^^prising in one so young. Mr. Rodrigo is a^^ player of finish, nerve and skill, snd we are of^the opinion that it will be an exhibition of^beautif.il billiard playing never before^equalled in the Territory.
SilverStar Distkk t. ^ From a gen^^tleman we learn that tbe Bates A Trent mill^is pounding away upon tbe Iron Rod, and is^doing splendidly. There was a large clean^up made but our informant was not able to^recollect of what amount. The Everett mill^on the Oreen Campbell lode is unceasingly at^work, and we may expect to bear of good re^^turns in a few days.
S.A. Willy, Es^.^We deeply regret^to learn that this gentleman has been very ill^at Salt Lake City, but is at present slowly^convalescing. We trust that 'ere the new^year looks in, the roses of returning health^j will tint his cheeks.

Pbok.Kkyes Lecture.^An audience^composed of the^elitv^of Helena assembled at^the Academy last evening, to enjoy one of^the rarest literary treats that could be offered^to an audience truly intelligent and refined.^The Prof, introduced his subject which was^^'Student's life in Frieberg,^ by a hasty, yet^interesting review of the various theories of^-due*Hun which prevail throughout tbe^world, and applied each to the proposed ob^^ject and end of true education, and demon^^strated that the true theory was that which^gave strength and tempered at the same time^it imparted polish. He paid a high compli^^ment to American character at the result of^a system of education that comprised more i th^ Court th*P*rt of J****^**^- The
ofthe elements of a true theory than any i case is adjourned till this morning at 10^other held in Christian lands. Passing from j o'clock.

Mr. Mans^^field is one of tbe most substantial and popu^^lar citisens of Helena. Generous and manly^in his dealing, public spirited in all enter^^prises calculated to advance the prosperity of^our city, he has created for himself a popu^^larity in the Territory that is an honor to^any man. Connected with a firm that is en^^gaged exclusively in a wholesale liquor and^tobacco trade, he has, in connection with his

A man^named James Glennan was shot in the leg.^The stabbed individual is not expected to live.^Such little pleasantries seldom conduce to tbe^harmony of any social occasion and tbe neg^^lect to indulge in them is never regretted.^Times are very good in Beartown, almost all
