VICTORIA, July II.
Woodcock Il Co., of Queen Char
lotte island, are loading a sloop with
gold-bearing rock of astonishing rich
ness. The island may vet become
n Of the most important gold-pro-
duc!nC sections of the world. In the
Van Bremen claim, near Hope, ore
has been discovered exceeding III
richness any previous strike.
By the arrival of others we have q
fresh crop of rumors about the unfor-
tunate people supposed to have per-
ished on the Geo. S. Wright. One
report states that two mutilated bodies
have been found another report in
the number to six. The sto-
ries are very vague, and the local
press is again agitating the subject of
having a Government vessel search
for more definite information.

Narrow Gauge Railroads.

The New York Herald has been col
lating some facts regarding narrow
gauge railroads, from which it ap-
pears that there are now Is narrow
gauge railroads in operation in the
United States. having 700 miles of
track, and hat there are no less than
l20 organizations and 1850 miles UNI
der process of construction. These
roads have been planned and con-
structed within the last two years.
The cost through a level country is
about $4,000 a mile, including a fair
equipment of rolling stock; while
the 4-foot-S's-inch gauge costs from
$1,000 to SIS, 900 per mile. Inthe West
where the traffic is not large, the mar
row-gauge road is said to pay better
on the amount invested than does the
wider gauge.

Editorial Amenities.

Omaha editors care nothing about
the Code. When one of them is
aggrieved he goes for his man with a
cowhide. One day last week Z. Rose
water, OF the Omaha Bee, a man about
five feet high, felt called upon to tan
the back of Major st. Balcombe,
manager of the Omaha Republicans, a
man something like six feet tall. The
cause ofthe trouble was the following
d~isgraceful item in the Republican,
which that paper declined to ~retract:
When Edward Rosewater presents
himself at the police office for a mar
riage license, he need have no fears
that he and his 'wench' will be re-
ferred owe to Iowa. Difference of
race will, in his case, be made up by
entire compatibility in other respects,
save that the wench would get the
worst of the bargain.
During the melee the Bee mar flew
around quite lively, but when the six
footer got q fair hold of him he was
compelled to throw up the sponge.
Spectators prevented any serious re-
suits. The Omaha Herald gives the
following description of the affray:
Two eminent journalists had a
terrific encounter on Douglas street
Yesterday. According ~ our most re-
liable reports, it appears that the fear
full conflict began in a preliminary
SklrmlSh for position, n which Shorty
Observatory with a strategic skill
worthy of n better result, met
Lengthy (Balcombe) on the corner
of Douglas and Fourteenth streets,
where he seized a step-ladder,
and, climbing half way up his back,
landed a singer with a small rawhide
on the neck of Lengthy. The arms
of Lengthy, for reaching and strictly
moral, moved with the rapidity Of
lightning, and crushed poor Shorty
ANONYMOUSLY to the grass. The ac-
complished Lengthy made one ter
rifle leap into the air, and landed on
all fours upon the body Of his pros
trate foe.
1nthis position. with his face to the
sky, and his back to the earth, Shorty
held his antagonist, John Phoenix
like, to his work. He kept the hands
of Lengthy busilv occupied with his
countenance and his hair, and with
twisting his northumberland. until
time was called. The scene of the en-
counter presented at this time a terri
BILE picture. The pavement was torn
up, pieces of clothing were scattered
about, and bloody hair hung in CORY
ringlets from the rough edges of the
stones. Some of the friends of the
parties tried to create the impression
that a portion of the gore was made
from raspberry Juice of a grocery box
that had been thrown over in the
scutiie. We scorn the insinuation.
We know blood when we see it.
Commenting on the difficulty the
Salt Lake Herald says: How much
o interesting and satisfactory this
than the New Orleans plan of shot
guns, n barrel ball, at forty PAGES !
Omaha is ahead of the Gulf city , The
fray on the banks Of the Big Muddy
is a fitting rebuke to the murder at
the mouth of the Mississippi.

CE sAHIsM. 1.-The New York H~rui{ is
creating great sensation by warning the
country that Gen. Grant is drifting into
Gao 'arism by prospect lg for T. third
term. Gen. Frank Blair long ago pre-
dicted that Gen. Grant would Stay in the
White House as long as ho lived. Mr..
Stephel and mlny other public en-
admonished the country of similar
dangers. The Herald is putting nau shty
ideas in the Presidents head, and is CON
sidcrably behind the times on this sub
jeot. Gen. Grant is not the only man
who loves to keep place and power. Our
great consolation is that C;eiar had his
Brutus. SO build up Pompey's statue
and send Grant IN ascension robe.

The OLD S1zE.-After necessary de-.
lay Of two weeks. the PHOENIX appears
again, this morning. in its old form
twenty.four columns; at which size,
barring accidents, we propose to con-
t;nue it.
BIZ SEA We desire again to call the
attention of travellers and tourists to the
advantages presented by the sea route to
New York. The steamers leave twice
week and Saturdays; ara
substantial vessels, commanded by c1.
perienced officers. The line we are most
favorably impressed with is known az
''Clyde's Iron Line" composed Of the
Georgia and South Carolina, and fo-
which W. A. Courtensy, Esq, Of
Charleston, is the agent. We recently
took Ground trip" on the Georgia,
Captain Crowell, and are. therefore, the
better prepared to speak of that par
ticular steamer. She is built Of iron; is
of large size; has handsomely furnished
and thoroughly ventilated state rooms,
and an extensive promenade deck.
Captain Crowell is seaman aud gentle
man in every sense Of the terms, and
soon makes his passengers feel perfectly
at home. He has been coaster for so
many years that he scarcely ever re-
quires reference to chart. His first and
second officers and Pilot Evans are al.
fait in their departments. Purser Ash
croft is an able assistant and fits
around and among the passengers, with
kind word and willing arm to aid the
sick, and giving ready ear and pleasant
reply to questioners. OF the table, We
can truthfully say that it rates With the
first clnss hotels OF the country-soups,
fish. meats, poultry. vegetables. fruit,
pies, puddings, jellies. etc., being daily
furnished, and everything properly pre-.
pared and cooked. The entire cost from
Columbia, (ri9 the South Carolna Rail-
road.) including carriage through
Charleston, birth and meals on sto amer,
is only a22. At this season of the year,
it is generally smooth, so that sea-sick.
ness need scarcely be apprehended.
