BANEoCK vs.. lDAHo.-The practice of nam
ing place . city, is, to say the least, at as
sumption on the part of tho founders OF
towns and villages, ifnot down right bigotry,
arrogance and egotism. For instance, it is
an impOssibility at the laying of the founda-
ton Of place to foresee Wbetherit will, ia
coming time, assume proportions that will
cntitle it to the designation, hamlet, village,
burg, town or city, hence the naming of a
place city is allfoIly. Another ineonYenience
to which We of this Territory have had TO
submit, and which should be remedied now,
while we are in our infancy, is the practice
of calling towns, districts, counties and the
Territory by the same name. Idaho City is
abominable, and ought to be changed back
again to " Bannock," and leave cut the word
city" When we speak OF write of q Idaho
unless we add the word city" no one can
understand whether the town or the Terrific
ry is meant. So with Boise City, This
whole basin, including the several branches
of Boise river, is known as the Z Boise mines
or g Boise" and in speaking or writing Of the
town, unless the word city is added, the mat
ter is perfectly unIntelIigible. In Washoe
the same practice was pursued for a time,
until the annoyance became so great that b.
act of the legislature of Nevada Territory the
word city, as sufix, was stricken from the
names of all the towns in that basin, except
Carson City and Silver City. At the time
BannOck was changed there was necessity
for some change, but not to cOnfound the
town with the Territory, as was done, but
now, since The Territory has been divided,
and the other Bannock is in Montana, there
il no reason why it should mot be changed
back again. We hope our next Legislative
Assembly will speedily restore US our original
name, without the city, and that Boise City,
the future capital Of Idaho, if she desires it,
may have new name given her.

MONTANA AiNgg.-AF.B.H.J jennings, who
went from these mines to the States last fall
has just returned to Boise By way of the MOu-
ta1la. mines lie loaded an OK train with
freight and brought it through to Virginia
IC.ty, the capital of the Sinking Water dis
Eeings. There is a frst-rate ndturalroad from
Fort Laramie almost direct TO Virginia City,
and with the exception of about sixty miles,
excellent accommodations for camping. Dur
ing his sojourn there, the emIgrants came in
at the rate of hundred families per day-a
trough estimate perhaps. notwithstanding
this rush, the majority Seemed 10 dispose Of
themselves independent of any assistance or
advice on The part Of the rcsidents-som
taking to themselves ranches, others teaming,
Sc, &c. Our informant says Montada is the
best mountain farming country re ever saw
any amoant of grass this year that turns off
three and four tors of hay per acre. Virginia
City, he thinks, is twice as large as Idaho
City,. The placer diggings are fabuIousIy
rich, but very limited-con6ned to one long
creek near fifteen miles in length Many
gulches put into this stream, none of " hich
pay anything the gold is obtained from the
bed of the creek and bars belonging thereto,
and is supposed to have come from an inn
mensely rich quartz lode, or slide from it
that crosses the beadwaters at right angles
with the creek. Tunnels are being run into
the mountain at various points for tbes pur-
pose of ascertaining the locality of the main
ledge. There is much excitement about
quartz generally from the fact that some
twenty mills are being brought into the coan-
Try by means Of navigation on the Missouri.
Owing to unusually low water, steamers had
to unload at Fort Union instead of Benton.
Bannack City is = small town, aud the mines
there have pretty much had their day. The
place is very dull. Mr. J. came from there
to Boise by stage. The opposition in that
business between Holiday Co. and oliver
h Co., between Virginia City and Salt Lake,
had reduced the fare from SIS in gold to $24
ia greenbacks, with downward tendency
in fact, it was believed that in two or three
days more the fare would be down to $5.l A
line Of stages was in operation from Virginia
City to the Kootenai mines. Mr. ]. passed
quartz mill some distance this side of Fort
Hall, on the way to Boise. This may be the
mill on the way from Chicago, as announced
by as last winter.

We understand that several quartz lodges

Rocky Bar near the main road to Boise City,
which are attracting considerable attention.

Washoe lOdes, and prospect WE'LL They are
named Mechanics, RattIesnake, Texas, Legal
Tender and Georgia. Two arastras are in

well defined and quite wide, one Of them

/ INDIAN OUTRAGEs on THB Goose LAX
tRoUTE.-D. f. Channel, an old Californ'
friend of ours, and one of the early prospec
tors in this basin, arrived here on Tuesda,
.#evening, having brought in some four or FIVE
Hundred head Of cattle from California by
the Goose Lake route. he informs US tGa
on The 2lst day ofJuly, when % miles south
west of the<Gonsal Butte between Coos,
Lake and Harvey valley, he, in company witt
a gentleman from Humboldt county, Cal, by
the name of Porter Langdon, who WAS also
bringing through band of cattlee together
with lad from the Tower House, Shasta
county, by the name of Thomas Kenny, some
+l7years of age, was attacked, while away
from the herd in search ofScattlc That bad
strayed away, by fifteen Indians Mr. Cham
mel, with Colts revolver took ono side OF
the trail and Mr. JLangdon, who had arms
with him, took the shotgun fromthe boy and
took the other side, placing the boy between
them. In this manner they role some dis
lance, keeping the Indians at hay, those arm
ed only with bows and arrows approaching
within range of pistol or gun-shot, while
Others having rifles remained at a distance
AT length shot struck the boy in the back,
somewhere near the spine, and he fell from
his horse moment later, and Mr.. LangdOn
was also shot, and fell MORALLY wounded.
Their pack ANIMAL having by this time gone
some distance ahead, was about being cap
tured by an Indian, when Mr.. Channel rode
briskly after him, with his pistol drawn ready
to FIRE, but saving hisloads for certain shot,
when in passing q point in a gulch, it occur
red to him that be could easily escape behind
the prOmontory aud soon be Out of sight Of
the savages. Acting promptly upon the sug-
gestiOn he soon found himself out of their
reach, and as the ground was very hard it
was difficult matter for them to track him,
and in this manner he escaped and Joined
the train unhurt. Being satisfied that both
Langdon and the lad were dead, and as the
party was rather weak to encounter large
band of Tndians-the mountains doubtless
being full of thcm-it was deemed unsafe
to attempt the recovery of the bodies of the
lnfOrtuuates, or the cattle that were lost; so
hey came on without them. Mr.. Channel
ost $50 head, and about the same number

INDIAN DEPrEDATIoSs ON THs PLANS
Since the outbreak near Denver CITY, some
three months since, by the Cheycnn,s, the
spirit of murder seems to have communicated
itselfto the neighboring tribes n,rlh, south
and east, from Mexico 10 the British posses
sions. Late dispatches assert thAt there are
prospects Of the greatest Indian war ever
knowu in America, resulting from combiua-
tion of ali the tribes on the Plains, for pur-
poses of warfare and murder. An iudiS
criminate slaughter has already begun
against the employ eeS of the Overland Stage
Co., near Fort Laramie. The stages had
stopped running audthe people were fleeing
to the Forts for safety. .1he telegraph had
thus far remained untouched, but Of course
1t must fall a prey to their rAyageS. General
Blunt had issued orders that no more Indians
be allowed to leave their reservations, and
that no arms or ammunition be sold them
Every effort will be promptly made 10 put
down The outbreak as soon as possible but
we may fear the worst, especially with regard
to our mail and Geographic COMMUNICATIONS.
