COUNTY LINES.

The survey OF Montana established the
fact that our county lines were not only
wholly imaginary, but that our imagina-
ton terribly distorted their size and
shape. Beaverhead county extended
some thirty minutes eastward of its sup
posed limits, and included Virginia City,
leaving Madison but a narrow, dwarfed
and cityless strip of country. To dein-
itely locate the county lines, bill was
introduced in the legislature defining
natural boundaries, as nearly ss possible
for Deer Lodge county, and was amend
ed to also define the boundaries of Bea-
verhsad and Madison. By an inadver-
tency in the drafting of the bill. over
looked by the members from Madison,
Deer Lodge came down across the noun
tain, following the Bighole and jefferson
rivers, and gobbled Rochester gulch and
Silver Star district, separated from Deer
Lodge by an impossible range, which
can only be avoided by a circuitous
route, necessitating nearly hundred
miles travel to reach the county seat.
This had heretofore been part of Mad
ison, and the new order of things would
have involved endless annoyance and
confusion in the matter of records. The
matter having been brought to the
attention of the Legislature after the
law had been approved some weeks, they
passed an act amendasory, extending
he lines of Madison county across the
river, making the northeast corner at
the base of Table Mountain, extending
thence east and south for the boundaries
between Madison. Deer Lodge and Bea-
verhead. A motion was made by Mr..
Edwards TO reconsider the vote by which
the amendment was passed, but on an
examination of the affair, the amend
ment became a law. Madison loses q
strip of some ten or twelve miles In
width on the western boundary, the line
now extending due north and south from
Beaverhead Rock. The Jefferson river
is now the northern boundary to the
mouth of Boulder. The eastern and
southern lines remain as before.

act further elaborately describes the
manner in which companies may incor-
porate under this act, or dissolve those
existing under it The act of Congress
prohibiting the granting of special priv
eleges or private charters by Territorial
Legislation, authorizes general incorpOr-
alton acts, in accordance with which
this was enacted, and it is one of the
most important of the session, Its
practical workings will doubtless devel-
Op the necessity for amendments, but in
its general principles we believe it is
calculated to meet the requirements of
the Territory.

Heretofore we have heard terrible
imprecations on the heads of the militia

mand the five several districts of the
unreconstructed States. 1t so falls out
that Genl Hancock, commanding Mill
tary District No. 5, is the most promi-

cratic nomination for President. Here
tofore there have been no words suffi-
ciently expressive of hatred, for the
Democratic press to convey their detes-

cept the position of enforcing by force
of arms the laws of the country. Mark
now how mildly they scorify them and
what a sanity exception to the devilish

ANY person who has ever travelled on
railroad in actual or supposed posses
sion of a trunk, knows what stupen-
dous bore the said trunk is. What,
with showing checks; contracting with
cab drivers; getting corn trodden and
flesh bruised in anxious crowds paying
out money constantly and taking in a
fresh supply of anxiety at every change
OF cars; and finally arriving at ones des
tination without the aforesaid trunk or
any idea of its whereabouts, they are
the most intolerable nuisance of travel
ing. A company is now in course OF
organization, corporation with $20,-
100000 capital, to be called the MAJ
tional Accommodation Express Com
Pany," whose principal business will be
TO have agents all over the country, to
whom the person proposing to take .
journey has simply to say, "I lodge al
No. =, street. l start at such an
hour for -. Deliver my trunks al
No. :, street" He pays a hall
dollar, gets his ticket, and if the trunks
are not delivered on his arrival, " Dam
ages, sir Damagesl" If carried out il
will lit lowering clouds from many s
dream of travelling felicity.

Many Montaneze will remember H.
A. Bollar, who in days gone by was a
resident of Virginia and drove fast
horse. We find he has turned up as an
author in the goodly city of Brotherly
Love. t. E. Zell & Co., Philadelphia,
havingjust issued from the press vol
ume of his writings, entitled, Among
the Indians, Eight Years in the Far
West" Liberal extracts from the work
are made in Eastern journals princi-
pally those referring to the early days
of Virginia City and the Vigilance Com
mittee. The extracts betoken an easy,
fluent style, an evident familiarity with
the scenes described, and if the remains
der of the book accords with the extracts
we have noticed, it is truthful. The
papers enormously locate this Virginia
City in Nevada, however. The work is
probably valuable addition to our local
history, and persons ordering additions
to their libraries should include this
work. The size or price is not given.
