Winter months-not, as here just now, in Sep
TENDER; and our Winters open the ball with
that wintry element snow; not after the Web
foot style, as we have here now-with rain low
down, and snow high up. But since disser-
tation on the superior weather of the Basin rs
not likely to lure all these Boise City and Val
ley residents up there to tarry and abide with
US, the subject may as well be dropped.
The stages are all in, with latest papers from
California and Oregon, to the 18th inst, and
these with dispatches from the East. There
is nothing startling or very important in any
of the news. No further intelligence of the
result of the Congressional election in Calfor-
MIA is given, and it is not known, therefore,
whether the Democrats have elected all three,
or only two Of the members.
1t is gratifying to learn that the Democratic
ball keeps rolling triumphantly onward, through
out the States and Territories. The late cleo
ton in Maine, though not to be reckoned among
the late Democratic victories, has ended in
severe Radical loss and gratifying, material

in Pennsylvania and Ohio is now more anx-

therefor, that the Democracy will gain equally

MONTANA ELEcr1oN.-Althoupb General

MONTANA ELECTION Although general
election was held in Montana on the I'd inst,
we have not yet received any definite account
of the result. From all We can learn it seems
certain that Cavanangh, Democratic candi-
date for Delegate to Congress, is elected over
Saunders, Republican, by handsome majority,
and the Democrats have carried a majority of
their ticket throughout the Territory We
may be able to give full report by next issue.

unable to ascertain. It is coniectured by some
who seem to be exceedingly well posted that
the wrath Of some of the pretended friends OF
Gov. Ballard is not so much because OF his
mere removal, or suspension, but mainly De-
cause that act carries with it the fact that the
new appointee will have the disbursement OF
this large sum of public money and he is not
likely to let any of it pass through their hands.
But on my return to my post next week | shall
more fully allude to this whole matter. can
not do the subject justice in this letter.
John Green, formerly of Rocky Bar and
popularity known in Idaho City as well as here,
has returned from an extensive tour of the
wild country all the way from here to the
newly established Camp Steele, which is to be
Gen. Crooks Headquarters during the ensu-
ing winter. This Camp is on Rattlesnake, at
the northern extremity of Harvey Lake Val
ley, and is about eight days good travel from
this place. The expedition was under com
mand of Lieut. Bartee, and consisted OF about
thirty men all told, of whom Mr.. Green and
two others were the only ones not in the U. S.
service. Only five Indians were seen in the
whole journey of about 700 miles. From Mr..
Green I learn that Gen. Crook has moved to
Goose Lake, where he has large force, and
will operate effectively against the Indians
On their return, the expedition were Informed
that the Boise Indian scouts under -, had
made an attack on party of Indians about
% miles below Camp Warner Tor Wood !, and
were repulsed with loss of one Indian scout
and two or three animals They were, indeed,
very fortunate in effecting their escape. Among
the hostile Indians was a white man who cried
out to the retreating party "Tell your supe-
riors to come on with their cavalry, and We'll
clean them out, too'' A reinforcement was
sent against the defiant rascals.
Gen. Crook is making a very effective cam
paign against the hostile tribes.
A race for purse of 800 and entrance
money added, came off on the track near this
city, this afternoon. Four horses entered.
The race was single dash of a mile, and
Spangler's stranger" won in two minutes,
with Young's "Old Harry" only length be-

9rs of the other racers.

The WEATHER commenced raining on Friday
night last and continued to almost ineessantly pour
down until Monday evening accompanied by cool
breeze which placed many great coat in place of
linen buster and created great demand for cord
wood and warm fires. The hills in sight around us
are covered with snow, and slight snow storm
passed over this place on Sunday. Tuesday morning
clear and cool and showed that during the night
Jack Frost had dipped his brush in the elements and
gave Mother Earth whitewashing. Since then the
weather has moderated and we may look for months
of pleasant weather yet this season.

BOISE Cry, Sept. Is, 1867.

BOISE CITY, Sept. 10, 1867.
The contemplated journey to Silver City is
indefinitely poeponed-to use popular phrase,
this time with pertinency-on account of the
weather. Last night, after closing my letter
for the WORLD, packed up and made every
preparation for the stage ride, BY Sam. Kelly's
line, to .OWyhee to-day. The hour of starting
is 4 o'clock of morning An hour or SO before
that very early waking time, I was reused
from slumber by the burst of high winds and
heavy rain which swept with great violence
over this place. The thunder ratified and
lightning flashed, and it quickly occurred to
me that to get up from a comfortable and warm
bed to undergo cold perhaps drenching stage
ride of sixty miles this blessed day, would be
no good thing especially as my health is far
from that robust condition which enables one
to brace up against the inclemencies, and sud-
den changes of the weather, from warm to
cold, or from dry to damp. So, when the
prompt caller came, at halfpast three O'Clock,
to wake me, with the notice to 'sget up for the
stage" my response Was-count me out. The
stage went off minus one booked passenger,
and to this hour, all day long, have congratu-
lated myself on that fortunate event. The dat
has been -unconlmonly chilly, gloomy, and joy
less. Cold rain showers and bleak winds have
prevailed up to present writing. and the por-
tents are that the same dreary sort Of weather
will continue tomorrow. This cold, wet
weather has come so unexpectedly and out of
usual season that the town folks are little pre-
pared, in the way of stoves and fre-Wood, to
resist or counterfeit its influences upon them,
and many have to shiyer and bear up as they
can. There has not been a vacant chair to be
had all day around the great stove of the Over
land Hotel public room, nor at Riggs, or any
other public house where good fires have been
kept up. During the occasional, fitful CLEANS
of sunshine, the snowy evidences of the ex-
treme GOODNESS and wide extent of the STORM
were plainly seen upon the tips of the high
hills between here and idaho City, and also
upon the tops of the OWyhee Mountains. And
the sharp, chilling winds from these fresh
SHOWS We're K0eniy ItIt here. ~ ssas
s Among the hot stoves special committees in
pretty faithful session at the, Overland to-day
were a.few from Idaho City. Col. Sam A.
Merritt and Deputy Sheriff Bob. Griffith per-
formed their fair share Of stove duty, and
they had plenty to help them OF course it

from an exchange an account of the death Of
the pugilist Patsey Marley, from thirst, while
journeying through desert on his way from
Pahranagat to California. The following let

have no desire to do any one so foul an injury
as to kill him, will just do our part of the res
urrection by publishing the following letter to

The Maine Eleetian

The Boston Journal says: ssAlthongh the
democrats of Name have In many localities
increase their vote over that OF last year, il
would be entirely safe 10 offer bounty for
any permanent recruit to their ranks that can
be shown. And this brings US to the real ex-
pianation Of the election. In Maine, while the
prohlbitory ystem OF temperance legislature
is the accepted and acknowledged policy OF
the State, there has always been a section Of
iIs advocates who have striven TO engraft upon
IL extreme, illibeTal, and we may say, ntaler-
able provisions. When national issues are
prs ssng, these men get no hearing But at
other times, their persistency aid unity Of ac-
ton give them success in the legislature-as
happened LAST winter. Then the mass OF the
tions, are put in this prsdicament-if they ap-
paren'ly assent IN body, it is taken for uu-
qualified approval by the extremists, an d leads
to siIl wOl legislation: If they protest, ie di-
vides the organization, leading to quarrels
and resentments deplorable on every account.
The most natural suggestion is TO stay away
from the polls. while a few, in order to make
their protest more effective, vote with the other
side.
This same experience has been gone over
before. The Legislature Of 1855, by It's ur wise
temperance legislation. brought on a reaction
at the polls that year, which actually resulted
in carrying Democratic Governor and Legis-
lature. The next year the nEs:)nal lines were
reGrawn, spirited contest was made, and
Hannibal Hamlin WAS elected Governor by
seventeen Thousand majority. We shall see a
like termination of the present posture OF
affairs N Maine, although this time she has
handsome though reduced majorities She is
sill Republican to the core, and will glorisusly
make mp in the future for the apathy of the
present"
