From Bitter Root Valley.

By the arrival of Mr.. Toohill, Lieut.. Mulan;
expressman who reached this city May 3D. we
have news from the Bitter Root and Rocky noun.
tains to the 7th April.
The winter had been very severe in the NOM
tains. Cattle and horses were dying all over the
country in great numbers from the cold and wan
of food. In some instances persons had lost al
ther stock. Messrs. Higgins & Worden, the Jes
uit Fathers at the Mission, the Indian Reserva
ticn, Lieut.. Mulan's expedition, the escort, Mr.
Brooks, and Others had lost great numbers. Nc
similar winter has been known in the country
since 1916. Both Indians and whites had suf
fered very much.
Lieut.. Mullan's expedition were encamped part
ly at Cantonment Wright, and partly on the Hells-
gate river, in tents. They had completed large
bridge, 235 feet long, across the Blackfoot river
The ice being frozen nearly to the bottom of the
river, they were enabled to build the bridge by
working on the ice. They had also cut road
II miles long, much of it through rock, along
the Hellsgae river, TO avoid four crossings of that
stream. The expedition intended starting for the
Missouri some time in May, or as soon as the
grass was sufficiently high for animals.
An Express from Fort Benton reached the Bit
ter Root on the 18th February bringing news OF
battle between the Gros Ventres and Blackfeet
Indians-many killed on both sides. Capt Clark,
Indian Agent for the Backfeet, had arrived there
with pack train, Lringing annuties from St.
Louis
The Snake and Bannock Indians were en-
camped in large numbers in Beaver Head Valley,
and were making inroads into Deer Lodge They
had stolen number of horses and had killed one
man and one woman, between Gold and Flint
creeks. These Indians had with them a large
number of American horses, which, it is supposed,
were stolen from the eniigrants last summer.
Mr.. Worden and others were about starting to
St. Louis, to bring up goods for the mines and
valley.
The miners at Deer Lodge had been unable to
work or prospect, owing to the severe weather.
They had staked out their claims and were await
ing spring to commence operations
1t is thought probable that the losses sustained
by the Indians in stock this winter, annuities last
year, and the general destitution that prevails
among them, may add to their predatory habits,
and cause at least anxiety for the future security
for the upper country

District Courts.

At its last session, the legislature of
this Territory provided for the holding of
terms of the district court in the counties
of Idahoe, Shoshone and Spokane, at their
county seats. Courts are unquestionably
necessary to the good order and well being
of settled communities but we question
whether the establishment of courts at this
time in these frontier and unsettled coun-
ties is not a premature prcceed ding on the
part of the legislature, from the fact that
it necessarily involves great expense upon
a few tax-paying individuals, while the OBJ
jects sought in the organization of courts
can hardly be realized. There will of
course be but little taxable property in
these counties for some time to come, from
the fact trat the great majority the of resi-
dents there will be miners, holding no
property subject 10 taxation. The traders,
then-a small portion of the population =
must bear the burden of the tax Then,
the machinery of courts operate too slowly
for the excitable and migratory tendencies
of miners. If a man commit crime, he
will make it convenient to be absent from
the sitting of the court, since there are in
these counties no jails or means of confne-
ment. Should man be convicted of a
penitentiary offense. not only is his trans
porIation to the penitentiary expensive to
the county from which he is sent, but it is
attended with abundant means of e-cape,
and in civil business the tardy results OF
courts will be but little more satisfactory.

! The Hong Kong correspondent of the London
Times, writing in March, reports that a Confed-

WASHINGTON, April 24.-At noon to-day it
was announced that decision would be given
upon the proposals for conveying mails on the
Pacifc coast and in the west. Large numbers of

coast much higher Ii an formerly.
Later news from Vera Cruz had reached Ha
wanna. After an unsatisfactory conference between
the allied commanders the French General deci-
ded to march his division against the City of Mex
leo, taking upon himself the respon sibility. The
English and Spanish PlenipotenGaries thereupon
decided to withdraw their troops. 1t was stated
that the Juarez Government was ready to give
every satisfaction to the Allies in the matter of
claims, but will not listen to the idea of monar-
chy, and in case the allies advance to the Capital
he will retire from it.
Capt. Cutting, of Burnsde's staff, arrived ves-
terday. On the 18th Central Reno left Newbern
and proceeded to Roanoke Island from which
place he took 1000 men and proceeded to Eliz-
abeth City, where a strong rebel force was report
ed to have intrenched themselves On Saturday

From Salmon River.

We are indebted to Mr.. Mcbride for the
following items from Salmon river and the
upper country:
On the 29th ult, the snow was rapidly
disappearing from the mountains, and in
the mines it remained only about three feet
deep.
Miners who opened their claims last
fall were beginning to work, being able to
run their rockers and sluices from six to
eight hours a day.
A number of new buildings were being
erected in Florence-some of them, in
ended for business houses, of a very sub
stantial character
About three hundred men were engaged
in packing provisions from the summit o.
the mountains into the diggings. They
were receiving forty cents per pound fcl
packing.
Prices of provisions are on the decline
Flour was selling in Florence at IS cert'
per pound bacon $3.50, and other articles
were proportionably on the decrease.
The road to the mines is now in gooC
condition, excepting about Is miles OF
Craig's mountain, which is very miry; bu
this is rapidly improving and will be in fai
travelling condition by the middle of thu
present month.
A great many pack trains were on th'
road. The high waters interfered some
what with their progress. They will prob
ably be able to go into the diggings mex
week
At Lewiston the river was very high
being six inches higher tLan at any TIM
last season-and still rising Much of thu
the lower part of the town-sire was over
flowed.

From COlville.

We have dates from Colyie to the 1st inst.
The citizens of Colyille valley, feeling themselves
as they justly have been, slighted by the Govern
ment in the discontinuance of the mail TO that
Tlace, recently drew up petition addressed to
JEFF. Davis, praying him to establish a mail line
from the Southern Confederacy, through the
Rocky mountains, to Colvile. The petition was
signed by every resident in the valley h1t two
who said they Thought joke was joke but
they would be id if they would sign petition
addressed to JEFF. Davis if they never got mail,
and spoiled the joke BY their refusal" The petit
TONERS concluded the joke was spoiled, and did
not forward it to the rebel dignitary. While we
don't blame them for casting about for some
redress for their grievances say, hurrah for the
two who wouldn't sign
A pack tran loaded with flour, left Colville
some two weeks ago for Salmon river, uia Lewis
ton. A batteau, aaded with the same article
left also about the same time, intending to ascend
Snake river, as far as the mouth ofSalmon Mat
tiers at Covilc are dull, and mos. of the citizens
of that valley talk of going to Salmon river.

New FERRIEs.-Messrs. Silcott & Co.
have lately established new ferries across
Snake an Clearwater rivers. They claim
that the distance to Lewiston by these fer
ries is greatly lessened, and that the road
Is much more level than the old travelled
one.

RETURNING FROM POWDER PIvER.-
Parties are now arriving from Powder, with
more or less dissatisfaction. Yet al with
whom we have conversed seem inclined to
the opinion that gold does exist in greater
or less quantities in that vicinity. The
sncw and high water seems to be the prin-
cipal difficulty which impedes a thorough
prospecting.

THE UNION AS 1T WAs.-We continually see
the published cry of the peace Democrats
"Givo us the Constitution as il is, and the Union
as it was.o We do not wish to see the Union as
il was, IN every respect we wish, when this war
ends il will ieave the Union in such condition
that free white citizen of one portion of it can
travel in any other portio1 without being liable
to receive coat Of tar and Feathers, a ride on a
rail, a hempen cravat, on the mere suspicion
of being an - abotionist." In the " Union as it
was.' mans birth place laid him liable 20 such
treatment a. the above, in certain portions in
the Union as it will be such things will not exist
San Francisco Journal
That will be denounced as an abolition squib
by "peace democrats" Yet we never remom-
Der that any such penalties as above set forth
have been visited on Southern citizens north of
the chivary boundary line. The cry would be
more appropriate if it read the Union as it is
and the Constitution as we want it,"

IN THE MINES.
BY JOHN SWEET.

Leave the siuice and tom untouched,
Shadows darkeu on the river
In the cannon day is ended,
Far above the red rays CULVER;
Lay aside the bar aud spade
Let the pick axe cease from drifting,
See how much the claim has paid
Where the gold dust has beea.aftipg
Tell no tales of wizard charm
In the myths of ages olden,
When the sorcercr's potent arm
Turned all earthly things to golden
Pick and spade are magic rods
In the brawney hands OF Miners
Mightier than the ancient gods,
Laborng men are true diviners.
Gather round the blazing fire
In the deepening darkness cleaning,
Whilr the red tongues leaping higher
Seem like banners upward streuming;
Stretched around the fiery Goals,
Lulled into luxurious dreaming,
Half dozen hungry souls
Watch the iron kettle steaming.
Break the bread with ready hand,
Labor crowns it with blessing
Now the hungry crowd looks bland
Each a smoking piece possessing
Pass the ham along this way,
Quick before the whole is taken
Hang philosophy, we say,
If we only save our bacon!
Spread the blankets ON the ground,
We must toll again to morrow,
Labor brings us slumber ,ound
No luxurious couch can borrow
Watch the stars drift up the sky,
Bending sultly down above us,
Till in dreams our spirits fly
Homewards to the friends that love u.s.
As the needle, frail aud shivering,
On the ocean wastes alar,
Veeriug, changing, trembling, quyering,
Settles on the polar star;
So in souls of those who roam
Loves magnetic fires are burning,
To the loved ones left at home
Throbbing hearts are ever turning.
