The Timber of Montana. ..-Th h G
Lumber Interest About Virginia.

EDITOR PosT Not having travelled over
a very large area of this Territory, am
unable to speak with exactness Of the ex-
tent of the timber interest throughout the
whole region comprised within its bound
aries. have enough information on the
subject, however, to warrant me in saying
that, though in quantity. quality, and va
ricty our timber is inferior to that Of the
Pacific and Northern States, vet We have
an ample supply for large population, for
generations to come. Nature has been far
more liberal with us in this respect, than
she has been with some of the Western
States and some of our neighboring Ter
ritorics.
The south eastern portion of the Terri
tory, from its eastern limit to the tributaries
of the Yellowstone, is little else than a
sterile wsste. Of course there is but little
timber there. Indeed, outside of the Black
Hills, the wild sage, prickly pear and grease
wood are about the only species of segeta-
tion that relieve the country of utter bar
renness. Unless the aluremcnts OF inine-
raj wealth in this section shall prove to be
Sufficiently great to attract thither the en-
terprising gold-seeker, it will ever remain
what 1t now is, wild, desolate, inhospita-
bic region, utterly worthless to man. Its
general character and appearance is well
described by passage from Mrs. Tighs's
Psyche:

hundreds of guns of the heaviest calibre.
Any vessel entering with hostile intentions
would be obliged for FIVE miles, to take a
raking fire from Alcatraz, and at the same
time pass the concentrated fire Of Fort
Point and Black Point, and if she should
get by them, she wonld then have the
"cheese box % to des roy which, of itself,
would be nc pretty job for morning re-
past. Besides these forts, on Angel Island, /,
commanding the channel up the river, is
another very heavy fortifcation still in pro-
cess of construction; so that so far as the
shipping is concerned all the navies in tie
world would have all they want, to pay us
4 hostile visit.
Well, there are guns enough for to-day.

to write lsgibly and with more comfort to

Ii is we'll known that, although Japan has
been forced TO make treaties with the grea.
powers of Christcndom. she has never been
able to make the subordinate princes suf-
cient!y tractahle TO secure their execution.
The eutrancs to the Inland Sen, which seq
arates the two smaller islands on the south
from the mainland Of japan, is by three
straits. Of tn Sc, the most important for
commercial purposes is that known as the
Straits of Simonasaki, on the west. The
entrance has been strongly guarded by the
Prince of Nacato, whose province COM
usands it on the b. OF late the Prince
has greatly strengthened the fortifcations,
with L view 10 the exclusion Of foreign yes
sels. About year ago, French, English,
and American vessels were fired upon.-
Lately the English vessel Cornoraat had .
gun fred across her bow. 1t was then d
termined by ell the foreign ministers q

Sixteen vessels Of war were engaged in tic

flag. Half the vessels were English, three
were French, and FIVE Dutch. After three
days. fighting the sta ats were opened. TIE
Allies lost Sorty-six men, and the Japan0se
from two 10 three hundred. The forts are
to be dismantled.

The Baltimore AntrlcdH says that the
Illumination last night In honor of the
capture Of Richmond was one Of the most
brilliant and successful demonstrations in
the history OF Baltimore. The whole city
was ablsze with light and gay with aags
The outpouring Of the people was, how.
ever, the most remarkable feature of the
grand demonstration. Baltimore street,
from the bridge TO Eutaw street, was one
compact, struggling mass of humanity
One might have thought the whole popn.
lAtion OF the city had poured into Its great
thoroughfare until they visited other por,
tions Of the city aud found the streets
everywhere filed with Slght-seers. Til,
panorama both up and down Baltimore
street was exceedingly effective and I'm
posing. The innumerable lights, throwing
into relief the decorations OF the buildings
the flashing OF fireworks, the swelling
music Of bands, and the cheering and ex
clAmAtions OF the immense crowd made
up grand assembly Of sights and sounds
which has seldom been paralleled.

Fortified - Daring Adventure OF
Two Federal Onicsrs.
A gentleman who LEFT Mobile on the 18th
Inst, has Jqst arrived In this city, having
walked the entire distance and encountered
much difficulty.
He stated that Mobile IL well fortified on
all sides, and defended by force Of IL, 600
Confederstes under Gen. Maury. Only a
small portion OF this force ls composed OF
State troops. There are several forts be-
low the city, all OF poweTfularmament.
Several days before our informant left, q
Federal feet OF four gunboats and twelve
transports came 10 within q short distance
Of the lower fort, and dispersed rebel bat
terry In the woods, after which large force
was debarked at the mouth OF Dog river.
There seems TO be no chance for the Fed
erals TO reach the city by the fate recently
constructed, owing TO the shAllowness OF
the water. IL was thought that the city
would be evacuated In few days, and that
General Msury would occupy Selma, which
place is also well fortified. All able-bodied
menNhave been pressed by the confederates.
There is constant alarm In the city. De-
sertlons are numerous. Food Is scarce

on the dollar Our informant, who had
been In the army, paid two months wages
for q dinner at a restaurant. Two vessels
loaded with cotton ran out through the
feet on the night of the 17th.
On the same day two prostitutes obtained
o pass, went through the lines In . car
riage, and returned with two Federal off,
GERS dressed 10 rebel uniform, whom they
drove all through the city, and back through
tle lines again. The trick was not dis
covered until the birds had flown. The
officers were probably spies, and doubtless
obtained all the Information they wanted
The women subsequently returned, and
were placed under arrest. The rebels have
four gunboats on the Alabama river. For
rest was at West Point when our informant
passed that place, and one Of his brothers

The strength OF Our Government,


The following Is al extract from the letter
Of a distinguished gentleman Of Vermont,
TO the Commissioner of Agriculture Of this
city:
"Pormit me to express TO you my clear
and honest conviction that In the head OF
this department the Government have hap
PLY selected the right man for the right
place. A large portion Of the people are
practically interested in the benefits i'm
puted by q judicious administration Of
what properly appertains to this depart
ment as q utilitarlan branch OF the Gov.
ernment than OF any other Of the subordi-
nate bureaus. Agriculture, commerce,
and education, having pure Christianity
10 permsate and vitallze the whole, form
the true aud only elements of that ortho-
doK, civilization, which gives our Govern
meLt IL strength and stability; and when
these are wisely cared for and fostered,
our country need have no fear from rebel
lion within or aggression without. The
cost Of this horrld rebellion, which Is now
efeCtually stricken down, Ia immense In
dollars, TO be sure, but, In my judgment
this Government Is to-day infinitely Tichel
and immeasureably stronger than II wal
four years ago. ltnow possesses q status,
prestige, q felt power In the eyes Of tn,
whole world, which all other nations ma!
envy, but fail to possess"
