From CnI0radn.

Letters have been received from
our excursionists at Denver. They
say that the reports concerning
that country are substantiated in a
great many instances, while in 9TH
ers it falls short. They arrived at
Denverin the snow, with the Their
mometer at 81 degrees above zero,
and proceeded in a day or so to
Colorado Springs, about 20 miles
south of that city, where they were
at last reports. They mention a
cabbage weighing 80 pounds, -four
and butter the like of which was
never seen in this country, and veg
etables, &C., that beat the world
We were sorry to learn that Mr.
LESTER had a severe attack Of chol-
era morbus the day after they ar
rived, but he was much better and
able to travel when last heard from.
All of them express themselves
greatly pleased with the country,
and if they meet with nothing to
change them in their opinion, we
may expect to lose some of our cit
liens next spring and fall.
Since the above was put in type
Messrs. B. W. KNIGHT and JOHN
ARCH RICHARDSON have returned,
leaving Mr.. JAS. II. LESTER at Lou
isville, where he stopped on bust
ness. They substantiate the state
ments made above, besides giving
many other characteristics OF that
country, showing its superiority
over any other under the sun. They
relate many items of interest, but a
detailed account would be too
lengthy for these columns. The
wages paid for all kinds of work
are much higher than that paid
here, except carpenters, who get
81 per day. Plasterers are paid 81
per day, brick masons Sc, and all
othe~ classes of mechanics com
mand like wages. The business
houses are as fine and the stocks of
goods as varied an plentiful as in
any of the eastern cities. Rents
are very high, common business
houses renting as high as $500 a
month, The markets are well sup
Piled with the finest beef, buffalo.
antelope, deer, DC, together with
the very best vegetables, the meats
selling at from 4 to z cents a pound
and the veget bles cheap in proper
ton. There are II butchering es-
adjustments in the city. Mr.,
RICHARDSON presented us with a
pear grown out there which is about
as fine as we have ever seen, We
also ate some grapes brought back
by Mr.. KNIGHT, which we're really
delicious. We saw some mud left
sticking to the pants of Mr.. KNIGHT

Sealey bark hickory nuts, are as
popular as ginger-cakes on a radi-
cal election day. Every body is
eating them.
The poet who wanted "The
Winged Winds" to tell him so much
could have learned many things in
the last few days; though it is like
ly his'curiosity would have been a
little dampened if he had given it
full play.

ERASMUS ARMENIUs TAYLOR and

at least they are going the way

supposed that they are hunting for
them.

Three of the best lawyers in the

Nurses are in great demand here
at this time. Whether it is that
there are fewer nurses or more ba-
bies is a question that cannot be
solved until the next census man
comes around.
Rocks, sticks, stones and pistols
have been discarded, and umbrellas
are now all the rage for fighting
with. To be sure it costs a little,
but who would not give to such a
needy corporation for little fun?
Only six weeks till Christmas,
and nothing said about it, and no
body preparing for it. It's time to
commence cleaning out your bones
if you expect to have any Christ
mas in them.
Every body is discarding wood
and burning coal We would sug-
gest to our farmers that they plant
no trees next year.
"a little learning makes us won
derous WISE" is an old adage but
not a true one, for we can boast of
as little learning as any body, but it
would take a wiser head than ours
to find any thing to write about
these dull times.

that rare faculty. given only TO chosen
few. of throwing icr whole soul into the

living. treathin. vitality that the most
thoroughly btase piay-Goer can not look
upon the scene unmoved. This is sOlue-
thing better than education. something
better than talent; it is that inspiration
which belongs alone to the .randcst realms

conclusion that nothing OF the kind is pos
sib!e at this session"
The character OF the Presidents reply ~
the resolution Of Governor Morton inquiring
about the condition of affairs in North Caro-
lima and other States, which will be sent to
the Senate on Monday. is such that it would
have defeated amnesty. even had it beel,
well under way. The Presidents friends
are decided on the subject. Butler, who
claims to run Grant, has made amnesty his
special hobby, while Morton, who is known
to be on intimate terms with the President
regards it as one of the greatest political
heresies OF the day. President Grant him
sell j, not in favor of amnesty, as was
proven in his opposition TO the Missouri
Brown Scurz movement, but he may have
been converted during the recent visit Of
Greeley here.
