The BLACK HILLS OF DAKOTA
attention has been called to the circular
of an association called I" The Black Hills
Exploring and Mining Association" whose
headquarters are at Yancton, Dakota Ter
ritory, from which place il is proposed 70
send out in the latter part of May an ex-
petition TO explore the Black Hills. There
has long been an impression that these
hills, which have heretofore been jealously
guarded by the Indians, contain most val
liable mineral wealth as well as timber,
which in Dakota is even more valuable,
and now that the Sioux war is declared
ended, it is supposed that no obstacle will
be offered TO their thorough exploration.
The association wish all who desire TO
participate, to rendezvous at Yancton, BY
the middle Of May, and as thero is no
charge for joining, they would like as
many as possible 10 do SO. The route is
direct one to Montana, and any parties
going there can join the expedition, and
proceed from the Black Hills to their des-
tiuation. This is an important enterprise
and one that may lead to great discove-
ries, thereby offering inducements both to
the adventurous and the enterprising. Re-
ports of fabulous wealth have prevailed in
relation TO these Black Hills, among the
Indians and Missionaries for many years.

THE WHEAT PRosPEcT FOR 1885,.
So far all is favorable. The extensive
and long continued SHOWS OF the winter
have we'll protected the wheat and it
seems TO be coming out in the finest con-
dition. 1t will be frozen out somewhat in
the lower latitudes, but in the States
north Of the forty-second parallel we
think the crop win be heavy. Indeed,
south Of that line the chances are in ia
vor Of double the yield Of last season. -
