pie Of the city of Lewiston appear to be wa
king up to realization of their spiritual

Brigadier General George Wright, com

who came over the road this week, we learn
that teamsters continue to pass up and down
summit hill without encountering serious
trouble, or being Compelled to let their
wagons down the hill with ropes" as has
been stated by hireling runners. The work
men on this road, will have the new "cut'

The subjoined items, condensed, are from
the Lewiston Age of the 7th inst
Mr. John Gabraith arrived from the
Beaver Head country on the 3lst of Octo-
Der, gia the Spokane. Mr.. G. reports that
the snow on the Ceur dAlene mountains
was two feet deep on the summit when he
crossed, and he thinks communication by
that route at an end for the balance Of the
winter The Miners are doing well on the
Stlnkingwater but few Californians are in
the mines yet; the majority are from Pixies
Peak and Minnesota A party of CalfOr-
mans arrived at Virginia city Ga new town
on the Stinkingwater, few days before
Mr. G. left They stated that they had
found good prospects on the Yellowstone, a
tributary of the Missouri river, and that
they intend to return in the spring, as they
believe there are as good diggings there as
anywhere they have seen.
John Heely and John Kennedy, two old
pioneers of the Salmon river mines, had just
returned from the North Fork of the Sas-
katchewah river, and reported they had
found rich diggings and would go back in
,the spring. A party Of Canadians and
yhalfbreeds were at work there, making
from $25 to $50 per day with rockers. These
,diggings are in the vicinity of Fort Ed
'mondson, Hudson Bay Cos post.
Mr.. G. met at Hellgate Ronde, in the
Bitter Root Valley, several Frenchmen and
Halfbreeds, just from the Kootenay coun-
ttry, who told him they had "good thing
sout there, but did not intend making it
public until they had secured their claims" :"
The Age learns that miners are now at
work on Snake river near the mouth of As
sotin Greek, eight miles above Lewiston,
making from $12 to $16 per day. Men are
now at work near Craig's Ferry, just above
Lewiston, making from S4 to s. per day.

A TEMPEST IN A TEAPoT.-Considerable
excitement and discussion has been created
within the city limits in the past few days,
growing out of report that certain
disinterested parties were taking pre-
cautionary measures to secure the passage
of an act, during the session of the next
legislature, repeating 0nr city charter
Without entering into discussion of the
merits, of the subject, we venture the opin-
ion, that the party in favor of the city char
ter as 1t Is, is largely in the majority. This
party includes the principal portion of the
property holders, and if they are satisfied
with the charter we cannot see how any
number of outsiders have a right to
say it shall be repealed

~ FoR THE UPPER CoUNrRY.-Although
the season is getting pretty forward, sundry
small parties have left Walla Wala the
current week for Boise. They were mostly
persons who have mining claims already
opened and those interested in general bus
iness affairs in the districts of Bannock,
Placerville and Centreville.
Several pack trains also departed in the
middle of the week, carrying goods to the
Boise market The merchants, as a conse-
-quence, have had very little idle time since
Monday morning, having been occupied in
