ANTELOPE SPRINGs.-This is one of the

ioSno anu oait LAKE line, ana Is Az miles
this side of Fillmore City, Utah. From
Mr.. Davis, who keeps the stand at the
Springs, We learn that some very rich
rock has been found in several Of the
mines near his place, which is located in
Galena Mining District. The rock has
been sent to Salt Lake for reduction.
There is but little farming going on, but
stock raising is carried on very extern
sively. Mr.. Roberts, of Corn Creek, has
some mines in Galena District, and OBJ
tanned from one of them, at a depth of
IA feet, rock which assayed as high as

wards st. Louis by the same road, and at
the same rate, A. being ahead. Fifty
miles from Chicago A. overtakes and
passes a flock of geese, moving at the
rate of "a miles per hour, and two hours
afterwards he meets G. coming from st.
Louis at the rate of az miles per hour.
B. overtakes and passes the geese when
45 miles from Chicago, and forty minutes
after meeting c., he arrives at mile-post
which says, '.31 miles to Chicago" At
what rate do A. and B. travel, and what
is their distance apart?

of the committee that with what has
already been forwarded to Hamilton for

amount subscribed by the people Of ri.

was only few dollars. Such a contri-
button surely reflects credit upon the
liberality of the good people Of Phoebe.
