to the utility of stamp.mills in wealth.
producing in that new country. The
shot" at the energy displayed by the
Eastern capitalists-of which we read so
much about in the Reese River country
will be appreciated in this region:
ut is COMPOUNDED nonsense to talk
about the ineficiency of stamp.mills. The
only era of prosperity that Colorado has
ever known, was made by stamp-mills.
Two years ago when the premium IN gold
was at so, Dan Parmelee told US person.
ally that he could pay oil the expense of
mining and milling the Smith & Parmelee
ores with the premium alone. It il true
that expenses are somewhat higher now,
but still a fine prof, may be made if the
work is properly conducted. To effect
anything men must use energy ; but little
of the article has been displayed since the
introduction of imported corporations"

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.
Forty Persons Poisoned by Adult
terated Calomel.
From the st. Louis Republican, 18th.

From the St Louis Republican, 18th.
We heard of an awful tragedy that TRANSFERRED
last week in the town of Shiloh, Randolph CO..
Illinois. 1t appears that two physicians Drs.
Campbell and Miner, in that place. recently
sent to The drug store of A. A. Anderson. in
Chester, for quantity of calomel. In one day
the medicine was administered to forty pa
tients, when it was discovered that with the
calomel there was mixed corrosive sublimate
violent poison. All of the patients were
taken with alarming symptoms; and in the
cases of seven of them the result had proved
fatal at the date of our advices, and it was
feared others would not survive.
Among those whose death ensued we're
family named Mellinger, consisting of man,
wife and child. A sister of DR.. Campbell, an
intelligent and interesting young lady, died in
a few hours after having taken the dose pre-
scribed by her brother.
The calomel containing the poison, was put
up in the ordinary way, and had not been tam
pered with after leaving the store of q whole
sale druggist in st. Louis. by whom it was inn
ported from England. The presence of corro-
sive sublimate was probably due to a culpable
carelessness, rather than design. at the labora-
tory of the manufacturer. fthis hypothesis
is correct, it is terrifying to think of the pos
sible consequences in other parts of the
country.

du Lac for the canoe which is built OF birch
bark, and about twenty-five feet IN iengtn.
This they invert, one OF them standlng up
in slightly crouching condition in the forward
end. and his companion resting the other end
on his shoulder, and giving careful directions
&C thew nroceed. in order to avoid trees, rocks
and hanging limbs
BEFORE re embarking, the canoe is carefully
examined, and if the pitch is found to be
cracked or rubbed off in any place, fresh pitch,
(of which they carry good supply is applied
and heated to running condition by the appli.
cation of frebrand.
The canoe is now Placed in the water, and
after being again carefully loaded, so that eve
nv pound shall have proper bearing, we once
more respond to the welcome cry of "All
aboard"
The st. Louis at this place is about 800 feet
in width, and abounds in pleasant little islands.
We find it much straighter than we expected,
as we have heard so many stories of the
"crooked st. Louis" The Indians smile,
however, at our surprise, and nod their heads
with the ominous remark
"Bimeby bimeby find um much crooked |!
No tell um which way rum"
"An right" we reply, 1--WE can stand it If
the river can I" And 80 we once more commit
ourself to the care of Providence-and two
skillful Chippewas-to pilot us to the st. Louis
County Gold Fields. Of our further progress
we will speak in our next ORC FINO.

reach East Swan river another tributary
through the same bank. The st. Louis is now
becoming visibly narrower, crookeder and full
of holes, ravines, rapids and dangerous eddles.
In "a number of places we find fallen trees
reaching from bank to bank, and miniature
Niagaras pouring over their PROSTATE bodies
and broken tops. Implicitly obeying the di-
rections of our trusty voyagers, we often dis
embark from the light canoe, and wade for
miles over sharp stones, beds of mire, and
piles of rotten logs that for years have been
accumulating in this vast unexplored wilder
ness.
While making one of these damp portages,
we heard the report of a rifle near the river,
and hurried to its banks to learn the cause.
Judge of our surprise to find the canoe in the
centre of the stream, with two natives seated
therein, and both halloing in mixed Indian
and English.
Kawin-not come now! Bears eats UNI!
Go way! Come bime by!"
Not seeing the point of such advice, one of
our party rushed around the roots of fallen
tree, and came suddenly upon two fierce old
bears, accompanied by brace of scrubby ones
about six months old. Instantly rising to his
shoulder one of spencer's carbine repeating
rifles of the largest bore, he killed both of the
old bears and one of the young ones in space
| of time not exceeding twenty seconds As the
other cub took to the woods the Indians be-
came wild with delight and astonishment.
They had never before seen or heard of this
| deadly flrearm, and it was difficult to make
them understand how it could be charged
| with 80 many loads at the same time. They
had shot at one of the cubs and had missed
it, when the remaining three had made their
appearance, and began to show their DISPOSE
ton for . water fight, for which the Indians
of course felt no special inclination.
The camp fire this night is, of course, en-
livened by bears meat, bears gravy, bear sto-
ries and bear dance by the happy red skins.
We send this letter through the kindness
of young Indian hunter. to Du Luth-the
nearest post Office, and will SEND you another
the first opportunity that offers.
From ali accounts given by the Indians, the
amount of gold in the vicinity of Vermillion
Lake, is perfectly fabulous. We shall shortly
see and judge for ourself.
