face of the Austrians, who were fortified
at Palistro, after a severe conflict, and

The Emperor was about to move his
head quarters from Alessandria, and it
was reported that he would go to Casale.
The Austrians in considerable force,
had occupied Robbie.
1t was reported IN Paris that as soon as
the French entered Milan, England and
Prussia will make most strenuous efforts
to end the war.
a fight had occurred at Florence be-

LEAyENwoRTH, June 10.
Adyices by the express coaches from
Denver City to the LIST inst, contain ex-
traordinary reports, which are calculated
to renew the gold fever with tenfold more
violence than ever. Rich nuggets have
been discovered on the North Fork oil
Vasques Creek, principally in coarse
gold and decomposed quartz. Great ex-
element prevailed all through the coun.
try. Statements of the yields of Greg
ory's and other mining companies are al
most fabulous.
1t was reported that company from
Indiana was making from $3.50 to $500
per day. Other accounts are of the same
character.
Many letters which seem to have been
written under the influence of the pre-.
vailing excitement are in strong contrast
to the previous gloomy reports.
The dust taken out at Gregory's alone
is estimated at $50, 900.
Denver City is almost depopulated BY
the people leaving for the mountains.
PROVISIONS continued scarce.
$4,000 were offered for claims.
Subsequent arrivals will determine the
certainty of this information, but the ac,
counts now received DO not differ in ten
or. Rich specimens have been received
by this arrival
The excitement in this community is

slider any measure for the general re-
moval of free blacks from the State o.

called ior by any public exigency which
could justify it.

ton should be well and thoroughly con
trolled by efficient laws to the end that
may be orderly, industrious and produc
tive
Resolved, That for the purpose of di
minishing as far as possible the evils
which proceed from the excessive and in.
creasing free negro class, the policy O
the State in 1881 should be re-affirmed
and such amendments be made to tic
act of that year as viii give to it active
force as will either prohibit emancipation
altogether or compel the prompt remov.
al from the State of those emancipatod
and that the Legislature be asked to re.
view and amend the laws relating to free
negroes and TO emancipation, so as to
remedy all the effects Of system which
time and experience has shown.

Weather and Crops.

N- Since Saturday last, there has
been gradual, but very material in
crease in the temperature, and its effect
has been most favorable upon the grow
ing crops. Owing to the cool weather,
corn up TO that time had done poorly,
but these last few days of summer tenn
perature have created a great and favor
able change. On Sunday night we had
avery fine and much needed rain, which.
in connection with the warm weather, has
started all vegetation to growing with
marvellous rapidly. Crops never looked
better than they do now in this county.
There is a much greater breadth of
spring Wheat and Oats sown this year
than ever before, and they are in SUI
perlalively promising condition. Corn,
wherever good seed was planted, came
up we'll, and if ordinarily favorable wea-
Their is gran ted to it henceforth, will
assuredly prove good crop. Our far
mers have all planted more or less Of the
Sorghum, but under the influence of un-
favorable weather it has not, up to this
time, looked very promising. 1t will
doubtless now come forward rapidly, and
with last years experience to guide them,
we have no doubt that large amount of
molasses and sugar will be made this fall
by our farmers. Hungarian grass, too,
has been pretty generally tried this
spring. in this county, but we are una
bic TO say what it at present promises.
Grass is abun dant and all kind Of vege-
tables generally doing well. In short,
the prospects never were better than they
are at present for the farmers of this
county. If these promises are realized,
and work is recommended on the Du-
buque and Pacific Railroad. as we are
inclined now to think is almost certain,
our pecunary troubles will last but lit
tie while longer, and we can look for
ward to more prosperous future.
