Leyuson keeps the place in good style, and
it is treat to visit it. y great many per-
sons arrived, during our stay, and appeared
to enjoy themselves finely We are surprised
that parties from this city do not o0ener SO
down to that place. Itis certainly Para
dise-just the spot, under those green groves,
for a coy chat with the woman that you
love, or cool promenade through those long,
grass skirted walks, or for game Of cards
with your friends, male or female or for en-
joying the poetry Of life in al its ulinistra-

card playing is one Of them. The prettiest
little sight We saw was humming bird sit

three eggs in it. There had been five, W,

RABBIT HOLE SPRINGS, May lat

RABBIT HOLE CPRtNGS, May l4ln.
| EDITOR DEMocRAr: As we are on the eve
Of departure for regions more remote, drop
you a few lines as a sort Of finale to what
| have heretofore written.
Since my last writing we have explored the
country in the vicinity of these and Antelope
Springs to some extent but with about tho
same general results as heretofore, that is,
with empty Golfers, and keen appetites for
our fast waning grub"
We find in this vicinity a color Of gold but
not in such abundance as to justify the ex-
pense Of bringing in the little available water.
The distances from Marysyille to Antelope
Springs and Black Rock we have estimated
as follows; To Dow wneville, 62 miles; thence
to Jamison, 20 miles Beckworth's Ranch, Is
miles head Of Long Valley, II miles lower
en- Of Honey Like, 81 miles Birds Ranch,
s miles; Hot Spring, 10 miles; High Rock
Spring, miles; Mud Springs, Is miles; low
er end Of Smoke Creek Canon, miles Wall
Springs, 20 miles; Deep hole Springs, miles;
Granite Creek, IL miles; Black Rock, "a
miles Rabbit Hole Springs, 25 miles Ante
Iope Springs, Is miles, Making 255 miles to
Black Rock and 29S to Antelope Springs.
The roads are the best that have seen
over the mountains and there is a sulliciency
of good water and grass for any ordinary
emigration. Wood is barred at all camps on
this side Of eckwouh's.
AS to the mineral resources Of this region
little is known as yet, but there are fabulous
tales of men who without effort have blum
dered upon heaps of shining silver and who
after few years bulfeting with the old Hag
! Fortune in more genial realms, returned to
fnd it all spirited away beyond the reach Of
The most scrutinizng eye.
But if there are men disposed to come here
and to whom my opinion is Of any value, |
will candidly say to such that. if thcy have
business where they are, they had better at
tend to it, and if out of business, steal chick
ems or commit any other Hale annoyance to
get quietly into the chain gang,-but don't
come to B. R. with the hope Of any immediate
results
This whole region is one endless succession
of mountain and desert, with low finty spurs
intervening, destitute of every feature that
charms the eye Of Natures nobleman, the
farmer The mountains of rock have been SO
changed 10y heat as to resemble huge piles Of
petrihcd cinders rather than earth fresh from
the hands Of Omnipotence
We have seen no Indians, for long time,
and no fresh tracks for several days The
Pah-Utahs are evidently intent on mischief
Let weak parties take heed and govern them
selves accordingly. Ever thine,

IMPORTANT DlsoovERY.-There need be,
now. no more explosions from camphene and
fluid. Dixi c. Smith, practical chemist,
has connected himself with the Pacific Oil
and Camphene Co, at san Francisco, who
have their mandatory and distillery on
Townsend street and, by application of his
chemical process, all the camphene and burn
ing fluid from this manumctory are rendered
non explosive. Mr.. Smith tested the matter
in our presence, yesterday and demonstrated
it beyond question. Taking off the top of
an ordinary lamp, he iguited the eamphene
and poured more eamphene into it while it
was yet burning. There was no more trouble
with it than if it had been oil He used the
fluid in the same way, setting it afre inside
the lamp, aud then serewing the top down
over it, while it was yet burning, There is
no possibility Of an explosion with this kind
Of material.
