o,rs EscApE.-On last Monday Mr.. James
W.. ,,ho is engaged in mining in Eldorado gulch
Hsn'o's tho claim to shut off the water, and in a
wen or rayine under the ditch started to pros
se'p cround, when all at once, without warning
no,a side hill. capped with huge bank of snow.
u' ,nd slid down the .ravine distance of about
cav ,,ndred feet, burying Hanson up and carrying
.,onp with the sliding mass the entire distance.
ln,s dog shortly afterwards appeared on the
- where Mr. Kelly. Hanson's partner. was work
''' IA was covered with mud and made some curl
HS ,.,onsratons to attract Kelly's attention. but
w. ling that the dog had only been chasing some
',nDsrs Kelly did not follow him and the dog re-
'.-0od 70 the scene of the catastrophe. About two
DO bonrs after that one of the ditch-ten 2ers on
un;0, ditch had his attention attracted by the dog
IA heard somebody's voice crying out for help, and
- rspairing to the place he found Hanson covered
With the exception of his head. which he had
-,,,raa TO get out above the sand aud debris. As.
..t.nce being called, four men worked for three
,rrters of an hour before they could extricate him
.,m his peri!ous position, and when they succeeded
- raeasing him he found TO be almost literally
a,vad alive The sliding Of the sand and snow over
him down the steep ravne, had torn off every stitch
,bis clothes and rasped the skin OF OF him as
,ongb ne had been rubbed with sand paper. His
hing gum boots were rolled down so tight around his
,nkles that they could only be removed by cutting
them off, The unfortunate man was carried to his

MY from whom We learn that, though badly i'll
inrei no bones were broken and that Hanson is in
iir way for recovery. 1t certainly miraculous
escape and he may well congratulate himself that

MINING Across THIS BAsIS.-From Mr.. James
Murphy, of Granite Greek, who called on us last
Tuesday, we learn that nearly all the mining COM
panies in that camp AZ work, and that water is
running Though all the principal bitches. During
the past few days the volume OF water has greatly
increased owing to the change OF weather, and in
few days there viii be water in abundance for all.
The miners around Pacerville expect to commence
work about the last of this week. though there is
considerable snow yet on the ground. which, to some
extent delays mining operations in that section

noM AosTRALIA.-Mr James DeGrouchy an old
resident OF this section of Idaho who formerly mined
~ Deau"ooo Basin, returned few DAYS ago direct
from the gold mines in New Zealand. He left here
last summer, after water failed on his claims and
having heard of the gold discoveries in that distant
portion of Her Majestys dominions concluded to 90
and prospect for himself lie sailed from Gan Fran
CISCO, by Webb's line of steamers for Svdnev in
Australia. and thence to Auckland, New Zealand He
prospected throughout the gold fields in that prov
ince and informs that in some sections the mines
pay very well hut the government regulations in re-
gard to the mineral lands great drawback as a
person is compelled to go through an interminable
legal formula before he can successfully work his
ground He must pay license or tax to prospect,
and when he finds ground he thinks will pay he is
ooged to make application to the nearest Magistrate
or Commissioner for permission to mine, and his
application must be Endorsed or witnessed by four of
his nearest neighbors among the miners The Com.
missioner then orders the ground surveyed &C., and
for all this the applicant must stand the expense.
After that, if the miner wishes to bring in little
ditch to get water on his claim he must make an
other application to the authorities for permit and
the same vexatious requirements must be gone
through with TO construct q reservoir. Everything
Is taxed-hve bits every ounce of gold extracted
gong to the Government-aad as DeGrouchy SAYS
person pays tax almost for the privilege of drawing
his breath. Under such system he says the mines
VIII never be worked out. and finding no ind uce-
ments to remain he concluded to leave the tax ridden
country. He sailed from Auckland. coming uia the
Fee Jee Islands, where he had an opportunity of in.
terviewng the cannibals and he gave us many inter-
estng facts in regard to the Fee Jees. He saw the
King aud Queen Of the Fee Jees. and brought back
with him their photographs. 1t is said that when
the present King came into power he gave grand
feast At which two hundred hum beings prisoners
captured from neighboring tribes, cooked ana
eaten with great gusto by the King and his guests
DeGrouchy says the male Fee Jees are as a race
tall stont and splendid specimens of men, physically
while the women rather diminutive. Mr. De-
Grouchy was thirty-four days on his return voyage
and says that while he enjoyed the trip he is Very
glad to get back TO Idaho.

Illinois,.

Tho election returns from the legis.
lative districts in Illinoi, already in
dicato that the minority representa-.
tion plan of voting, US applied to rep.
rcsenta,ives, has given to the minority
q much larger md faircr representa-.
tion than tho old system of voting
still retained in balloting for senators.
II, as is probable, the Republicans
have carried thirty.onc districts and
the Liberals twenty, and this proper.
ton held Us to the House, the latter
would stand ninety three Republic.
cans to sixty Liberals. Under the plan
of minority representation the H,uso
will probably be divided into about
eighty.two Republicans and seventy
one Liberals, which will be u
mnch closer approximation to tho
portionate vote of the two parties in
the State. 1t is entirely probable,
however, that this result is rather duo
to the recognition Of the new system
by party conventions than to any in.
tclligent application on the part Of in.
! dividual voters.

Comment and Speculation.

"Zeta" writes from Washington to
the Baltimore Sun
The extraordinary triumph of tho
President has given rise to great
deal Of comment and speculation on
tho future course Of tho Executive.
1t was declared to-day by many of his
supporters that he would certainly be
third candidate, and successful
one. Others stated that his policy
would bc to rcunlte the couutry and
insure feeling of confidence and
harmony in tho South, while still
others insisted that there would DO 10
changes in the Cabinet except such a<
were voluntary by Secretary Bout
wells probable transfer to the Sem
ate and Secretary Fish's withdrawal.
Probably the gossip Of the least
foundation reports that the President
in some of his appointments intends
to follow the course adopted in tho
appointments to Geneva, and will
select public men of the type of
Evart<, Adams, Gushing, Rcverdy
johnson, and SO forth, rather than
mere political leaders in sympathy
with him. Rumors of new foreign
policy, the acquisition Of Cuba, trouble
with Mexico, and the revival Of the
San Do mingo annexation scheme,
have also been current, though it is
quito evident that ono and all come
from the surface talk of this political
centre, and have, as yet no real
foundation.
