LEGAL BUSINESS IN THE KANSAS MINEs.-In q
letter from the Gregory Diggings to the st. Louis
Republican we find the following
The variety of interests created by the opening
of the different mining districts, and the utter
absence of all laws adapted to the wants of the
mining community, induced the latter, soon after
the discovery of the diggings, to assemble in mass
meeting and adopt, in its sovereign capacity, q
body of laws and regulations, under which the
several rights of the miners were to find mutual
security. After the lapse of some time the multi.
plicty of additional interests that had arisen in the
meantime, necessitated supplementary series OF
DEGREES Of the, mining people, which, together
with the original ones derived their authority from
common consent and universal observation. As
these laws, or articles of agreement rather, be-
tween the several members of the mining com
munity are part of the history of the gold region
and afford an insight into mining life felt justified
in placing full transcript of the mining code
before your readers.
Before this, however, wish to premise that over
one thousand claims are recorded in the Gregory
district alone, most of which are owned by parties
| that have returned to the States but expect to
cross the plains once more on their way hither with
the opening of next years warm season, and that
the Claim Court is busy from sun-np until shutdown
| with adjusting claims between disagreeing miners.
Actions for the recovery of jumped claims, suits
| arising from violation of articles of partnerships,
etc., arise frequently, and the precious pretended
or real disciples of Themis, whose shingles swing
| to and fro in front of numerous log-cabns, find a
plentifulness of employment for their pens and
| tongues. The courtroom of Mountain City-a cor
ner of variety store-furnishes, indeed, diurnal
evidence of the innate proclivity of Anglo-Ameri-
cans to make the law instead Of common sense,
the arbiter in their endless difficulties The Gregory
diggings do not, however, stand alone in this
respect. In most other mining districts, Claim
Courts are also constituted, and systems of regua
tons similar to those of the Gregory district in
force.

THg WEATHER continues sunny but not over
warm. The wind and the dust rendered the streets
somewhat unpleasant yesterday. The population,
however, was largely dffused outo'-doors.
DESTRUCTIVE FrRE.-Between and O'Clock on
Saturday evening, fire started in the second story
Of Messrs. Taylor h Churchill's hardware estab-
lisllment No. 20 Magazine street, between Com
mon and Gravier. The firemen were promptly on
hand, but, water being scarce as usual, they sue
ceeded only in saving the surrounding property,
consisting of heavy wholesale houses in different
lines Of business the hardware store went. The
houses of G. Yale Co., dry-goods dealers, and N.
G. Folger Son. clothers, adjoined the burning
building, and were saved by the gallant work of
| the tiremen Taylor & Churclls stock was worth
upwards Of $4,000, and insured for only $4,000;
the building was worth $4,000, and insured. The
wholesale house of Peet, SiInms & Co., was con-
siderably damaged, Or the goods therein, by the
| water thrown the damage being estimated at
about $4,000. The whole loss falls little short of
100000. The fire is reported to have started ac-
cdenta'ly, by the bursting of a gas-pipe.
FALSE ALARM.--The alarm of fire at noon yes
terday was false 1t was caused by great volume
of smoke arising from some prairie or plantation
below the city.

small-sword duel with officer Lopez of the Second
District police, was well enough yesterday to &C

wounded, but not seriously. What the difficulty
