inches on last Tuesday morning, the 10th, to 23,
932 inches on Sunday noon, anticipating the pres

until it has reached 24,600 inches. We may reason
ably expect an immediate change for the better.

H. wree em the ,y , Col.m

some two or three years. He was engaged ll
i i the Gallati Valley and had saved about
#000, with whi.k amount he was abat to reta . 1
to his home, psopes to lse a t st UIb .
Hae wasi Yh To la hen ie oft theo t

sell, f this ty, introl aced him to a gentleman
bre having U. S. copon bonds, and Davidaem
bad partially aencladed to exhange for them, bat
the erchbage was broken o ona sesomt of the ti
acred interest uo the coupons whleh he did not

and exchange with John 3iehards at roseman, ti
who bad large money, and he carried the amall tl
bills back to te valley, having them wrsd in a
piece of buckskin. There were about d,000 in it
the package. Mr. Davidson was Senior Warden of a
Oallatin Lodge (No. 7) at Bozenman, as honest, Ir- C
dustrious gentleman and a good Masan. Mr. May, -
his companlon, is said to be entirely above any sus
picion of complicity ia the transaction, and of trre- 1
proachable character. The number ofmurders com- F
mitted recently is alarming, and call for such pan
ishment to be meted out to the perpetrators as will t
serve as a warning to those who hold life so lightly
and this atrocious instance would warrant a short a
shrift and a long rope to the whole gang engaged L
in it. The reward offeied for their arrest by the a
Bozeman City Lodge is sufielent to warrant the de- b
tectives in taking such measures that escape weald b
be an impossibility. tI
ME. COULDOCK'S BENEFIT.-Mr. Coul b
dock selected for his benefit iast evening the great ti
histori,: play of Louis XI. In so far as it depends
upon the personation of the cruel, crafty, treach- t
erous, parricide and king, passionate, vindictive, t
and cowardly, shedding innocent blood and gloat- !
ing in demoniac rage at his deeds of damning ini
quity, and with the dissemblance of a skilled hypoe
° crite, te.lling hie Aves at the vesper bells with maay
a sanctimonious sigh; in the trembling terrors of
remorse, and the cowardly shrinking from De No
moors revenge, the play was all that oould
be wished. The Dauphin, Marie, and Duo
De Nemours sustained their parts creditably. It
and were appreciated; but with all this the
play was not so well received as many whose ren- d
dering has been less faithful and whose merits were ri
greatlyinferior. "Louis XI " is a fie drama, and (I
Couldock's personation of the Monarch is, we
think. par excellence his best character outsi.le of
domest'c drama; but with the limited company,
scenery, costumes, stage properties and stage facil
ities, it.is simply an impossibility to present the
standar tragedies familiar to the appreeiative por- w
tioen of $he audience, in an attractive and successful
manner: This has been demonstrated to a certainty, 21
and much as it is to be regretted, we think it
will be admitted by artistes and audience that .'or s
the preheat at least we must look for our most
attractive performances in less meritorious plays. s
The ca'l before the curtain demonstrated the ap- d,
precivti mn of the acting. "The Vagabond" by Mr.
Couldo. k, was the finest recitation of Trowbridge's
excellent poem that we have heard. The College
Boy, with its absurd situations and side-splitting el
comicalities put the house in convulsions. Mrs. vi
Langrifhe has again appeared, and was gladly el
welcomed beck by her numerous friends. T
To-night, by special request, Mr. Couldock repeats sa
his great character of "Luke Fielding" in the Wil- M
low Colee. As this is the last representation of :i1
thisgreat piece herethere will be a crowded house, M
"The Youth that never saw a Woman," is on as of
the Afterpieo. Go. is
T..'~a'rr. T a. .T, , "-Towr of Frank- - P
THEATRTCALS. -The "Jew of Frank
fort," a very neat two act play, said to be founded
upon a historio incident during Wellington's cam
pign against Paris, was produced to a well filled
ouse on Friday evening. There are some Ine sit
nations in the play, and the prineipal characters
by Mr. and Miss Couldock, were very well render
, the last act affording fine scope for their talents.
Os Saturday eienlng, "Jocrisse the Juggler"
was put on, to another good house. Our people are
awakening to the excellency of the dramatic rep
rsenta'ions now being given. Jocrisse requires
more stage effects than are at command here. Tle
adien'.e was very much pleased, however, and we
do not propose to invoke the displeasure of the com
muaity by pitting our fancies against their judge
nt. " B. B." brought down the house. Mr.
Lagrishbe and Mr. Martin were in their element
and made the most of it.
FHOM LEESBURG.-W- e learn from
parties lately arrived from the Salmon mines that
the miners in the Lemhi Basin are to a man doing
well. About three hundred men remain, all of
whom have employment. On Sunday, the 8th
inst., more money was in eirculation than at any
pmious time this season. The miners and mer
chants, as a general thing, feel sanguine that the
omap will prove better next season, and more mon
ey be taken out than that of 186t7. Large ditches
are being brought into Smith's, Ward's and Sierra
gulches, which are now nearly completed, when
those 'calities will again yield largely. A major
ty of hoee who left Salmon river this summer,
-ryinf' humbug," may consider..emselves for
unaste o be able to return to thait locality next
lessun
season,
ARREST FOR DEBT.--On Monday, the
9th lnst., at Bannack, a negro who had been in the
tonsorial business and become considerably invol
red, undertook to leave the place without settling.
He war followed and brought back and placed in
jail for debt. At his examination, being unable to
fee a lawyer, he called on his friend Bob, another
negro, to assist him. Bob was sharp enough to get
him at quitted. The negro again left town via
Horse Prairie. Five men followed and overtook
him, and we are informed, left him nearly dead,
having~ whipped him in an inhuman manner.
DEAD--.An official communicationr
forwarded to Headquarters from Camp Meagher,
states that Jao. Thompson, one of the three men
rescued by Col. Howie, at Boulder Creek, and who
had bet n severely wounded by the Indians, died
at ( imp and was buried with military honors.
Thompson had just came through from the States.
He was from Leeds, England, and was about 30
years of age. Five men arrived from Fort Smith
on the .4th. They only saw one party of fifteen
Indians on the road.
To-DAY.-The election for municipal
officers to-day, promises to be warmly contested.
Several gentlemen have an admirable appreciation
of their capabilities for dispensing justice In the
capacity of Police Magistrate, and have been dilig
ently engaged in imparting the idea to their fellow
citizens during the !ast week. There are really too
many candidates for the various positions to give
them each personal mention, but some of their
friends will, no doubt, discharge that duty with
pleasure when you go to vote.
From Thursday' s Tri- reeil.
PATTIEY MARLEY AGAIN.-We some
time sinue published an account of the death of
Patsey Marley. as related to us by Mark M. Ro
maine. The Reese River Reveille discredited the
statement and asked information from other parties,
basing its doubts upon the fact of the length of
time that had elapsed between the tim. of his death
and the publication of the statement. Of Mark M.
Romaine's character for veracity we know nothing.
His statement may be questioned and it may be
untrue. He is at present in the volunteers, some
125 miles rom here, and we have no immediate fa
ielitles for ptanrltg farther particulars or substa
tiation; but the following circumstanee should not
be forgotten by the Reveille : In the early part of
this year we published a statement of Marley'
death, and gave J. C. Orem (Con) for our author
ity, stating at the time that it appeared very
strange that occurring so much nearer Salt Lake
City than Virginia, the Vedete and Teltgrap had
not received the information. We discredited it.
Meeting Coon. Orm afterward, he stated that he
had received a letter written by Marley's request.
and that the writer would soon be here. Romaine
was the persan. He came to this Territory and ea
listed In the militia. Coming to Virginia as an
orderly, Con Orem brought him to this ofee, where
he gave the Informatle as published. We inquired
why he had not before given It publicity, sad he
said that having written to Cou Orem he suppoSd
it would become public. He had been in the moua
tains and is not that kind of a man likely to her'
as editor's sanctum had he been ln town. Hegave
the name and address of the man who was It oem
pa.y wih him, who irmow ih CaRllara, aad sid
eiter of them would make oeth to the eiroem
steees. Not being familiar with the loall we
assume all diserepaetes I that particular. Tre
is eer thing to be coasidered. If Paissy Mar

ha been pblished six meoths or more. The last

lessly severe; but the moral of the piece makes par
tial ateaemet. Men who have trodden the strewn
-aUt"eeld ummoved have wept like children at its
mimic seenes of woe. Miss Couldock's acting in
the letter scene is a Mosee' rod that cannot but open
the woatalae of the stoniest heart, and they are few
whe ean completely divest themselves of the seem
inog ealty sad attribute to artistic e.fort that which
appears impulsive and unrestrainable. In all her
chasmeters she is a eareful, truthall actress; but as
Bose Fielding she is really great. If Mr. Couldock
should ever die, which we really hope he wont, his
siga board should be inscribed, " Here lies Luke
Fielding." Langrishe, Martin and Norwood were
as precious a trio of scoundrels as one would wish
to meet in an anti-vigilante dark alley. The latter
was immense-avoirdopoisly so, and the entire
company acquitted themselves creditably. Mrs.
Langrishe as Colin in " The Youth who never saw
a Woman," is responsible for the most shockingly
boisterous levity that a Virginia audience has ever
been guilty of., We bespeak its repetition before
the company leaves Virginia. By the way, we
only have three nights more. Let each one be a
bumper It will be long ere we have such enter
tainments here again.
EQgINoCTI AL.-Somne astute manufac
EQUINOCTIAL.-Solne astute manufac
turer of cabalistic characters and eccentric carica
turist of fish and flesh, in the interim of political
contests or perhaps during the pardonable lunacy
of the honeymoon period, several hundred or more
years ago, described a belt in the heavens through
which the sun passed, and sketched upon it a dozen
grotesque figures denominated zodiacal signs, co
pies of which have been handed down to the pres
ent generation by means of agricultural almanacs
and astrologers robes, by careful attention to which
superstitious housewives are enabled io raise good
carrots, and a lot of ilfernal old masculine scoun
drels dupe sighing lovers in the young bovine pe
riod of the tender passion. One of the illustrations
(Libra) applies particularly to mining camps,
which accounts for the storm prevailing for the past
few days, as old Sol approaches that point. and is
generally designated as the equinoctial storm. )On
next Monday, the Z3d, the days and nights will be
weighed in "the balance" and matters made even
between them, after which Old Sol. like Gail l1am
ilton. will go "wool gathering" after Aries until the
21st of March, when he will find Nox has taken
advantage of him and there will be another stormy
settlement. At dusk last evening the toot hills
were covered with snow, and the streets were
slushy with the melted flakes that were shaken
down from the dismal clouds during the greater
part of the day.
THE CITY G(JVEIRNMENT.-The ('ity
election on Tuesday passed off very quietly. The
vote was only about half as large as at the general
election on the 2d- The total vote was under 300..
The vote of all the wards for Police Magistrates
aggregates as follows: Muflly. 210; Heery, 133,
, cEvily, 92; Cowan, 341. For City Attorney,Chiles,
313; Edwards, 134. ForCity Marshal. Hurst, 21:5;
McKenzie. 1S9. 'There was no oFpposition for the
offices of Treasurer and Assessor. The following
is a list of the City officers elected:
Police Magistrate.........................Theo. Mulfly
Clerk and Attorney ...................m II. Chiles
Marshal................................ Ge . . urst
Treasurer............. .........................E. S. Calhoun
Assessor.........................C.C. . lenaugh
Alderman, Ist Ward ...............C. llampton
Alderman, 2d WVard..... ..............H. A. Pease
Alderman, 3d Ward ........................II. S. Gilbert
The Board of Aldermen met last evening to can
vass the vote, and the successful candidates will
be sworn in and assume the duties of their respec
tive offices to-day. The results give very general
satisfaction, and from the character of the gentle
men, we think all will be fully as well satisfied
with their administration of municipal affairs at
the close of their term, as they are now at their
election.
W1ITH OUR COMPL.IMENTS.-Thte Ilele
na Herald, better known ih Montana by the appro
priate titles bestowed upon .it by the Ga:Cne, has
recently flung an inuendo or two at the POST. As
to any intention on the part of the proprietors of
this paper to lessen expenses or suspend the Tri
WVeekly, it is a falsehood, and that is all we have to
say about it. The lHrald has all the business on
hand it is competent to attend to if it keeps even
with the (;a:crue, and we do not consider it of sufli
oient inIportance to devote any further attention to
it. It is considerably addled with vanity just now.
After it gets well of that disease it will be more re
spectable, perhal's.
n alJeauAe, I oungl..
THE NEW PAPER-Mr. Frank Kenyon,
well known on the other side as an enterprising
newspaper man. has en route for Deer Lodge City
two presses, a fine assortment of newspaper and job
type, and will shortly commence the publication at
3 that place of a weekly newspaper, devoted to the
s interests of Montana iu general and Deer Lodge
county in particular. It will be called " T;e
Weekly Independent." and we understand is to be
independent in politics. Frank is a good business
Sman, a live editor and good fellow. We wish him
most abundant success in his new enterp'se, and
t commend him to the people in that quarter as well
worthy of support. His prospectus will be issued
in a day or two, giving terms, etc.
Wao Is HiL.-We find the following
in an exchange : "Several bricks of Montana gold
have recently been received at St. Louis. A mong
them is one valued at $9,600; two bricks, one
weighing 452, and the other 453 ounces, valued
respectively at $7,609 47, and $9.773 43. each con
taninin 43,100 of pure gold. These bricks are the
result of a lucky venture of a St. Louis typo.
From Saturdays' Tri- Weekly
TIlE ILANGRISHE BENEIFIT.-Mr. Lan
I rishbe's benefit on Thursday night was just such an
one as we think any actor would desire-a good
bill, a full house, a fine oast, and a hearty recep
tion. There has been no entertainment during the
season more highly appreciated or more worthy of
it than thatof Thursday evening. "One Touch of
Nature" brought out a new phase of Miss irCol
dock's acting-- womapi with woman's instiocts,
vivacity and coquetry, predominating; a glimpse
of Thespian sunshine, not so grand perhaps but
more lovely than the storm. We have had tears
enough within the month to atone for all the sins
eemmitted since the creation. For some incompre
hensible reason play goers demand the seriqus,
tragic, miserable, broken hearted, skull and eross
bone pieces, and managers cater to their morbid
desires and depraved intellectual appetites, sand
wiching in a smile between two floods of tears and
see them gobbled as dainty luxuries by appreesa
tive audiences. Thursday evening was comedy
sight, however, and everybody enjoyed it. Lan
grishe as the Irish Err :grant took splendidly and
his songs were applau~ a d to the echo. The orches
tral accompaniment to "Wearing of the Green" was
one of the most astonishing musical achievements
we have ever beard. Mrs. Fitzwilliams made a
most decided hit as Mrs. Grimgriskin- One of the
very best actors of the company we have hitherto
neglected to award the mention his merits deserve,
Mr. White, the "old man" of the company, whose
characters are unexceptionably well rendered. The
east of the evening gave several of the company an
opportunity to appear to better advantage than in
any bill hitherto ofered. The only regret was In
the meagremess of Mr. Couldook's part as Penhold
er. Mr. La.mrishe will have occasion to remember
his benefit with pleasurm, professionally we know,
and peanlarily we think we know. Mr. Larnrishe,
mpeanied by Mrs Laugrishe, lef for Helea
this morning, to make arrangements for a short
dramatic season ln that place. Mr. and Miss Ceol
dook and the entire company will reach thereearly
in the coming week. We bespeak for them a cor
dial reception and generous support in the sister
city.

r "pome" of twenty verses, from Providence, R. I..
i Providence is a good thing in its way-felicitously
describinga "clam bake,' soliciting an early in
i sertion and assuring us that "the persons named in
p it have no objection to their names being published;"
a the most remarkable instance of humility on record
a We shall hereafter look upon Rhode Island as the
r home of themartyrs. Unhappily we are limited
by space to a few extracts. Here is how the thing
was gotten up.
The sun rose cloudy on a July morning,
When from their beds
As the day was dawning,
Uprose the clam-bakers' beads.
It will be inferred that the dawn of day corn es at
sunrise in Rhode Island. Fronm the next it will be
seen that a cloudy sunrise is indicative of a fine day.
Their toilets they did q uickly make.
And went down to breakiast in tfull array;
They filled their baskets with pie and cake
In anticipation of a very fine day.
The journey is then described at length, which
ended very fortunately at the house of agentleman
whose name rhymes beatifully with "scramble."
Soon we arrived at the house of Mr. Candell,
Where the clam-bake was to be.
They gut out of the wagon with a great scramble
For they were so happy, light and free.
The party then visitedl "a revolutionary Fort.-
which should le compelled to take the "iron clad."
--got wet-the author has a dry way of telling it
ran to the house and eat clams, after which, for
some mysterious reason, the girls "all felt blue.' To
improve their color they "concluded to ride dclown
hill."
Fo in the wagon they soton climbedl,
And the wagon they did fill.
Two boys pulled in front and two pushed behind
And ran the whole wagon load down hill,
But here comes a horrible catastrophe
And down another hill we ran
Johnny and Eddy were at the aft;
Charlie Butter and Walter Pitman
Let go and broke the shaft.
The girls screamed, of course, but the your.g
gentlemen meutioned, were masters of the situation
and soon had the girls safe back at supper. The
festivities are described at length. Finally,
At 7, p. in.; their homes they did reach
And walked ;n the house with such presumpltion
Then drank a glass of brandy and water each
To prevent them from catching consumption.
MIsS ('OULDOCK's BENEFIT.-Tox-niglit
is positively the last of the dramatic se son inl \ir
ginia. It ias been a sutcce-ssful one to the manager
a pleasant one to the comupany and a delightful one
to onr citizens. This last night Miss Couldock
receives a Benefit. Mr. (Coutldok has nurtured an
envious heir to his talents and found a dangerous
rival ere the mantle has fallen from his shoulders.
Even now the populace accord eqtal honors. and
not without cause. iis support a few years since,
she n:ow walks band in hbnd, as true a reader as
the worthy sire. Her fine rendering of every char
acter so far replresented has elicited deserved enco
mliums from every lip. and to-night she essays a
character she has never hitherto attempted, that of
Mrs. Haller in Kotzebue'a sterling play of "The
Stranger," and we err in our estimate of her abili
ties if she does not win bright histrionic laurels on
the dangerous "first night.' We are glad to see
" Ore Touch of Natare " on again as the aterlpiec-.
The treble attraction of debut, benefit and farewell
performance, in undoubtedly the best bill of the
season, and the opportunity affordtld ot manifesting
in a practical, matter of fact way the deserved apl
preciation of the beneficiare. will fill the People s
Theatre as it has not been filled before. The only
hope there is for a seat is to apply early this morn
ing. Mr. Coulduck appears as the Stranger, Mr.
Shields as BHaron St :.fort. Mr. Brown as Count
Wintersen, Mr. Mart,u as Solomon. Mr. N,,rwotd

CONGRESSIONAL Su RII'.-M-Ir. John S.
Lott, late Auditor of the Territory. requests us to
make the following statement . There was a del),
of $15,000 incurred for Territorial expenses during
Governor Edgertou's administration for which no
appropriation was made. (iov'rnor Edgerton ap
proved S12,000 of it. and General Meagher issued
drafts on the U. S. Treasury for that amount. is hich
was paid. About 63,000 was never approved, and
the scrip for the same is yet outstanding. The cred
itors expected that on the arrival of Secretary Tufts
their scrip would be redeemed. Advic-s from
Washington instruct the Secretary that it cannot
be paid until the claims have been forwarded and
audited at the Treasury DIepartment. Also that
the vouchers tor General Meagher's drafts which
had been authorized by Governor Edgerton and
were forwarded to Washington have never been
received at the department. and he has not yet been
credited with the expenditure. The scripoutstand
ing caanot, therefore, be paid until the accounts
are audited by the department at Washington.
ANOTHER M1I.l, FOR STERIING.-Mr.
L, W. Borton; an energetic and well-known resi
dent of this Territory, organized in Wheeling. Va.,
last February, a mining company known as the
Hot Spring Gold and Silver Mining Company. It
is composed of a limited number of business men
in that place. They purchased at Marshall & Co.'s
Western Foundry Works in St. Louis, a 15-stamp
mill, of exeollaat workmanship; and shipped it per
steamer Zephyr, which reached the mouth of Ma
ria's about the 1st inst. The mill is now being
brought through and will be on the ground in ten
or fifteen days. The company own some very
promising leads in the Hot spring district, among
which are the Hayner. Oleander. Borton, San Jo
quin and San Jose, said to be very rich and easy of
soe s. They have ample power for propelling the
mill, and extra power for hoisting, etc. Mr. John
F. Hervey is Superintendent, and has several years
experience among mines and minerals to practical
ly qualify him for his labors. If energy, industry
and perseverance will command success, we shall
predict for the H. 8. G. & S. M. Co. a prosperous
future.

('IIINESE FUNERAL.--The. ('huineses wo
man who was inmudered on last Sunday night, was
buried on the afternoon of the 10th in.st. Quite a
large number. excited by curiosity. attended the
burial, but there were none. or but very few. of the
ceremonies incident to such occasions, performtne.
None of the 'Chinese masculines attended. whethrr
on account of the method of her death, or because
she did not owe allegiance to any of the principal
men here, we know not. On arrival at the grave,
her clothing was taken out of the htearns and set on
fire; the coffin was then lowered into the grave,
which was very shallow, being not more than three
feet deep, a few incense rods burned sultS fruit
thrown into the grave and a few handftulls of rice
scattered around pr.nmiscu:lus!y, and the ceremony
was ended. But three of her feme!e friends at
tended. and the roc,:eediugs iwere couducted by
them.
THE RACE.-It would eSee.iI that thlie
fall races had commnencd in earnest, as racing is
now the mtost prominent topic of c(,nversatiou one
hears on the streets. Our city is blest with quite a
number of men whlo th:llk thie have fast hr.ses, and
also with an equal number of othters who imagine
they are the protessors of nags ot lie can ''do" their
: in just a lfetle better time than tie former. The
result is that a considerable amouunt of sport may
.,e looked tfrward to within thie next two weeks.
'1 he race on Wednesdlay last. between (,cmstock's
sorrel mare and Bailey's roan horse, was a lively
aft'fir so far as betting was concerned, two to one
being oftterd on the horse n ith any number of
takers. The race was :3I) yards for &$.)O a side,
and was won by the horse, according to the
jufdges' decision, nine feet. Some dissatisfaction
was manifested at the result, and one man offered
to bet $1,0(W) that the mare coulid beat the horse.
bioth to run the samlle distance over again, but e',uil
find no takers. The affair, however, passed oil
pleasantly.
TIHE VERY LAST BOAi. -By referenci
to our advertising columns. under the head c
" New To-Day,' will be found the advertisement
of the fine, full cabined steamer Ilnntsville. Th
stage of the Missouri and the light draught of thi
boat, only 17 inches. promise an expeditious ant
pleasant voyage to St. Louis. The boat is well ap
pointed iti every particular for a late trip, and wel
oflicered. Parties intending to take this boat shoulh
start from Virginia per coach on the 21st. and fron
Helena on the 22., inst., to make connection n iti
the last mackinaws that nill convey passengers to
Cow Island, where tle IIuntsville starts from.
NEw BooK.-A new work, written .
a gent eman resident in tiis Territory, is shortly tt
be published. The work is to be entitled tha, ' Un
expected Ileir." and will be a chirminiig l,;i diad
ot historical lore and fanciful fiction, after the styli
of J. F'. Smith. G. P. It. James. G. \V. M. Reynolds
and other authors of like note. It is to lie pub
lished by subscription. and ,luitie a large list o
names have been already procured,. Considerabl
anuxiety is felt to have the work publibhed at at
early day. as it will undou,tedly b)e o.ne if thril
ling iunerest. Should it meet with that succes:
which the author and his friends cnufidenutly anti
cipate. we understand he is to be employed on a
serial talc by one of our city papers.
A STIRANGE CASE.- -. l hiavre hear(
of a strange attempt at the abduction of a voutin
girl eleven years of age. urder circ,lmstance's which,
to say the least, are unaccountable, if not iuhnmar
and depraved. Through the exertions of Mr. lteid
ler the child was reatored to her family, and joy
now reigns where heretofore there was naught but
gloom and despair. Owing to the peculiar nature
of the ftets which surround the case, we forbear
connment, with the hope tlhat shouldl the part:es on
undertake to play a like game in the future, they
will lie dealt with in a summary and effectual
manner.
JEWELRY.--MIeasor. Dunlap & Co. have
lately received a large assortment of fine English
and American gold and silver watches. diamoind
rings, and at extensive stock of jewelry of every
description. The work turned out by this firm,
from native gold, cannot be excelled in workman
ship or design by the shops of Ball. Black & Co., or
Tiffany & Co., of New York. They have mann
factured sc..ee beautiful setts of je:welry-. ue.k
chains. rings, etc.. and have constantly on hand a
large supp!y. Those going East can take along
with them no more appropriate reminder of the pro
duct and mauufactures of our Territory, than a sett
of this jewelry, or a chain of the most durable and
artistic workmanship. Give them a call.
TOPOGRAPHY.-Mr. Foot, who has for
some time past been engaged in getting up a map
of Edgerton and a portion of Jefferson counties, in
forms us that his labors will soon be completed and
the map sent East to be lithographed. Those,
therefore, who own leads and wish to have them
located on this map should lose no time in calling
on the gentleman, as they will be able to avail
themselves of the opportunity fora short time only.
SILVER CITY.-From Mr. Rose we
learn that everything is moving along lively in
this camp. There is but one drawback, and that
is the supply of water. This, however, wil! be
remedied in a short time by the ditch which is being
brought in from the Prickly Pear.
GONE.-At length, after a delay of
something over a year, Footer was sent down the
river to serve out his term of imprisonment in the
U'. S. Penitentiary at Detroit, Michigan. He goes
in charge of M r. Knox.
RETURNED.-Mr. L. WV. Borton, for
merly of Virginia, reached here on Friday last af
ter a tedious trip up the river, The gentleman
brought a quartz mill with him. and intends en
gaging extensively in mining operations.
QUARTZ SALE.-Messrs. John Simondo
ud Henry Augustine told to Mr. J. C. Ricker 83
feet of the east end of elaim No. 1, west from dis
covery, on the Whitlatch Union lode, for the sum
of 610,000. being at the rate of $125 per foot. An
exceedingly good bargain.
I CITY RESERvoIR.-This much needed
improvement towards the protection of our city
from fire, is fast hastening towards completion.
The ditch is finished to the point of the hill east of
Main street, and the reservoir has a force of men
at work on it. It is expected that the whole will
be in running order by the first of October.
HOT SPnGNos.-This favorite place of
resort has lately undergone deelded and much
needed improvement, and it stands, both in con
venienoes and adornments, second to no house in
the Terrilory. The lessee, Mr. Mattera, has dis
played decided taste ia fitting up the interior, and
the spirit of enterprise wh'*h prompted the outlay
will no doubt be well rewarded.
