Results OF THE WISCONSIN FIRES
A Legislative committee Of the State Of
Wisconsin, has just now reported on the
condition of tho people in the districts
which were burned during the forest fires
last October. Fifteen hundred and eighty
families, or 6,007 persons, whose fortunes
were destroyed in that time, have been
supported mainlyby the relief committees
Of Green Bay and Milwaukee. The az
gregate amount Of contributions will not
be divided equally among the claimants.
who will, however, be supplied with pro.
visions till June next, and will receive
agricultural implements, material for
building, seed, and provender for their
horses and cattle. All this having been
amply provided for, there willstll remain
surplus with which, should the sugges-
tons Of the committee be taken, a perrna-
nent fund will be establishedlor the reliel
Of the disabled, and the widows and or
phans Of those who persisted in the fires.
The report says that the roads through
the burnt districts are in a most wretched
condition, being SO blocked with fallen
timber that in order to go one mile wa
CONS have to be drawn two and three
miles, and in some places travel is almost
impossible. Moreover, so greatly are the
people impoverished that no tax can be
raised for the payment of teachers. sala-
ries, anditis feared that all the public
schools will have to be closed for year
at least. -.

CALIFORNIA D1AMoNDs.-We are now
threatened with a diamond excitement in
this country. II, as the telegraph informs
US, "a diamond Of considerable value has
been found in Eldorado county, Caliior-
nia," we may expect the usual commotion
among three classes Of our citizens-ad
venturers, vagabonds and simple minded
credulous men with strong hope and weak
Judgment, II the newspapers could keep
the failures among gold seekers, diamond
diggers and stock spectators as promi
nently before the public as they do the
occasional fortunate "hitS," the public
would take much less interest in the re
ports Of huge nuggets found, brilliant
gems dug up, and enormous fortunes sud
denly accumulated. .

TIE TUNNEL UNDER DOVER sTRAIra.s
The plan Of cutting submarine tunnel
between France and England Is assuming
a practical form About one hundred
and fifty thousand .dollars- are TO be first
expended in an experimental driveway;
one:third Of this amount has been sub
scribed, several leading noblemen In Eng
land taking special interest in the enter.
prise and leading the subscriptions. An
English deputation recently waited upon
n. Theirs to obtain the support Of the
French government in this undertaking.
He replied that France could vote no cap.
ital, but that every facility and encour-
ment which the government could offer
would be freely extended. No material
aid was looked for, under, the circum.
stances, and the Euglishmen interested
seem to have been satisfied by the posi-.
ton assumed by the French President. %

Man Drowned in Lewis Co.

From the Weston Democrat) aa
We learn that an old gentlemen named
John Morris, who resided on Freeman's
Greek, was drowned in the waters OF that
stream on Wednesday last. The facts are
somewhat as follows: The deceased was
q very old man. and had mounted one Of
his horses 4, towards evening to take him to
water: The horse coming home alone
sometime afterwards excited alarm, and
search was made, but the body OF Mr..
Morris was not found until the following
day. It Is supposed that on account Of
the swollen state Of the stream, the horse
had aopndered about, and thrown his
rider, who had not strength enough to
regain the shore. ss.f SaE-

ticipated q rich harvest from the trade Of
the gold hunters expected to visit the
Black Hills of Dakota this spring, insist
upon it that the precious metal Is quite as
plentiful in that region as any Of the pub.

say that Gen. Stanley, who has pronounc.
ed the glowing reports of metallic riches
unfounded, may know all about wa, but
that he Ia evidently no Judge Of gold

benin the habit lof picking up the gold
