RETUaNED.-Mr. Aaron Mckee, who left
this place in May asst with Mr. Rob't Bailey
and P. Kelly-all of Idaho City--returned
this week from an extensive tour through the
mountains. The company prospected for
some time among the Goose Creek noun
tains, but found nothing. The country looks
well for gold, but not color was found. a
species OF limestone, running into the purest
of marble is scattered over the country.
From those mountains they went into Fir-
ginia, Montana Territory, and thence TO
Prickly Pear, Little and Big Blackfoot
About the time Mr.. Mckee left that country a
great crowd was arriving there from the
C@ur daAlene country. The original settlers
on BIackfoot aud Hellgate were mostly from
Colorado. They had taken up the country
by enscting laws enabling those who were
among the first there to hold enormous claims
bar and bill diggipgs running from summit
TO sumDlt--ofteh several miles in length.
These claims were to be held two years " lLh-
ont any work done upon them. Mr. Mckee
thinks that the California miners who
were crowding into that region will soon
regolutonize that monpolisiBg system, and
will soon fix matters so tuarnew colners i'll
have a better show. There is some very
good mfaing ground in that section. TIE
dlggings are generally deep. Provisions were
dear-Hoar 36 cts, &c. One herd of buffalo
was seen OH tue headWaters Of Hellgate,
this summer, the first seen IN this side OF
the mountains for sop1e years. Antelope,
elk, deer, Sc, abounded. 1t rained there
nearly every afternoon, cleared up in the
evening with frost in The morning. 1t a
very cold country. Bailey ard Kelly are still
on the Blackfoot prospecting, with sanguine
expectations. 1t will be late in the season
before they return, if at all. Mr.. Mckee was
highly indignant with the treatment which he
received, on his return, from the officers at
Camp Wallace on Big Camas Prairie-Cspt.

Arrival of Freight Over the southern
Roads.

h0A0ss
It is q matter for congratulation that the
izaaediment which has long retarded the de-
velopement Of this Territory is now in pro-
cess of removal by the opening Of the south
ern routes to California via the Chico aud
Red Bluffs roads. The monopoly which
blocks the Columbia river in the shape of the
Oregon Steam Navigation Company, and the
manifold exactions extorted from both pas
sengers and goods along the old route be-
tween San Francisco aud Idaho, have been a
curse and a constans drain upon this Terri
tory, beuefting o. few at the expense OF
thousands The day Of these monopolies is
rapidly waning. This season will probably
see the end of it. The feasibility of the
Southern roads has been well demonstrated
this summer, and there lie no doubt that here
after they will constitute the main channels OF
trade and travel between California aud Ida
no. Indian dangers, along these roads this
season, have alone prevented them from be-
coming the thoroughfares of communications
this summer. By another season the Indians
will doubtless be driven from the road and
travel rendered secure. The moment this is
done, Portland and the Columbia loses the
Idaho trade, and 0wyhee becomes the en-
trep6t Of the Territory.
Mr.. - Hornback arrived here a few days
ago from Chico with six team loaded with
freight for Mes4rs. Miller & Bernstiel. One
wagon was loaded with $500 pounds freight,
another with $500, and four with 1900
They came through from Chico in about
lninetydays, travelling about two hundr'd miles
out Of the straight road in order to avoid a
Eportlon of the road undergoing repairs. Mr..
tHornOack expects to make the return trip

road is reported by him to be fine natural

worst portion of it being that between Boise

4 DEATH OE OVERNOR SMITH. j

Bar on the 9th Of August, after an illness Of
but few minutes. His death will be heard
with general regret. He was young man Of
promise, and had made many warm personal

his name permanently before the public in
connection with the part taken by him in

Of coincidence were adopted at Rocky Bar,
