GOLD PREDIcTIONs.-We conyersed with
gentlemen on Wednesday, visiting our sanctum,
who have returned within the past week from
Kootenai country. They think that another
season will serve to develop new gold fields that
will pay well next year in that country. Gold
has been discovered on some of the branches of
the Kootenai river, and it is believed by many
that the country adjacent to what is known as
the Kootnnai Village will afford paying dggings
Our informants give the opinion that the
Pend Oreile section will yet be famous mining

of the Spokane river Ferry for several years
past, and long a resident in the country, last
year made Sc per day on the Pend 'Oreile river,
sixty-ive miles above its mouth. The country
is rugged and difficult of approach, yet Mr.
PIante thinks good trail could be made to
reach the diggigns The.caches of miners work
on the river were recently found, and from all
the "signs of the times, +" it is natural to infer
that something big will be "ssruck in thatregiOn

in the Spring on account of frost. Here the
mountains approach abruptly upon the creek.
There are no bars on the creek and work can

BUKN1NG.-The Idaho Statesman, speaking of

that's a new dodge to cover up some contem-

seem to have the slightest conception of the

your fires out, or you may burn liberty up

it balanced exactly three pounds. 1t was a
beautiful specimen, and in quality it could not
