The Kootenai Country.

The signs of the times indicate the Koo-
tenai country, as the region for the next
gold excitement. 1t has long been known
to the Jesuit fathers residing in that coun-
try, that gold deposits existed there in
greater or less quantities, and from speci-
mems of coarse gold found and shown them
by the Indians they have believed the
mines to be very rich. 1t was to that re-
gion that father De Schmet directly referred
in his history of the northern country, in
1916, when he said the Indians of the
Northwest Territories were daily travelling
over untold wealth. But with their pecu-
liar regard for the welfare of the Indians
under their charge, aud desire to shield
them from the miser;es that have ever fol-
invaded by white men, the fathers have
kept among themselves as much as possible
its are supposed or known to exist. But
the adventurous disposition of the Ameri-
can people and their desire to explore ev-
cry nook and corner of our vast territory,
has placed it beyond the power of any, by
silence, to allow the mineral wealth of the
country to longer lie dormant Several
prospecting parties visited that country
last summer, and the results of their re-
searches were uniformly satisfactory to
them Some of their statements we pub
Eshed last fall, and from private letter
written by one of the party of Californians
whose statement we published in October
last, we learn that the party will be here
again by the first of May, en- route for the
new Eldorado. They last fall gave their
opinion that large extent of country, on
the head-waters of the Spokane and Pen
de O'reille rivers, and on other streams
in that vicinity, prospected by them, would
yield wages from IS to $50 per day, and
it seems, as proof of their sincerity, that
they are willing to return to that country
the coming season for the purpose of min
ing. A party of gentlemen will also leave
this city for that country about the same
time, believing from. information received
from there, and from observations in trav-
cling over the country, that they will find
a mining region there richsr than Boise.
We wish them abundant success, and from
our own knowledge of the region they pro-
pose to visit are fully satisfied that their
expectations will be realized.

The CONSUMPTION Bill.

CHICAGO, February 10th.-The Military Com
mittee of the Senate reported yesterday, a sub
stitute for Conscription Bill proposed some days
since 1t is stated that the bill agreed on in Com
mittee is sort of compromise of all views and
1t eacIs Inat all aolebodied male citizens Of the
United States between the ages of Is and 45 con-
stitue the national forces, and shall be liable to
perform military duty when called by the Presi-
dent. Section second gives the classes of persons
exempt, including the Vice President, Judges Of
the various Courts of the United States, heads OF
Departments, and such persons as are physically
or morally unfit for service; such as are required
for the protection and support of aged or infrm
parents or helpless children. The third section
divides the national forces not now in service into
three classes-First, those between eighteen and
thirty, and unmarried above that age second, all
others-second class not to be be called into ser
vice till the first is exhaused. Section fourth
provides that for greater convenience in enrolling
and organizing the United States shall be divided
into military districts, answering to Congressiona
districts of States and Territories. There shall
be Provost Marshal, with tie rank of captain
of cavalry for each district subject to the orders
of the Provost Marshal General Other sections
provide for sub districts, and the appointment be-
for the 10th of March, 1863, and In each alternate
year thereafter, of enrolling officer for each dis
rict, wbois to enroll all persons subject to duty
before the first of April, to include those of the
first class, who are Subject for two years to be
called into service, and to serve fer three years
or during the war and when they are drafted
into service they shall be upon the same footing
as volunteers. .... t..a.s l.-...r fsarr
Another bill, introduced into the Senate by
Sumner, provides for the enrolment of ahle-bod-
led blacks between IS and 45, who have been
freed by Congress or the proclamation of the
President by the commanding officers of the de-
partment within which they shall be found. They
are to be organized, equipped and and mustered
into service for the war. Their pay is to be 81
per month, one-half to be retained until the end
of their service Another section authorizes the
voluntary enlistment of the free blacks between
the ages of eighteen and thirty-fve, with the
same pay as white volunteers. The aggregate

The Plot to Seize the shubrick.
