Alaska may turn an Artic Eldorado.
a steamer recently arrived at Portland,
Oregon, from Sitka, brought two tons Of
gold quartz. A mine has been discov-
cred where, it is said, gold can be picked
out with knife, and placer mines, said
to be exceeding rich, are being worked
about 225 miles from Fort Wrangle
The discoverer of all this was himself
frozen to death. Some of the coarse
gold, in pieces worth from 50 to Sl2,
was brought to Portland. lfthe mines

A CRUEL (O MIsTAKE.-On last
Thursday morning the trd janitors Of
our school building rang the first or halt
past eight bell at 7.S0, thus convulsing
the whole village. Many "pater-fa-
milas" was seen to tumble for b is far
famed timekeeper, to look eager ly and
steadfastly into its face, to bring its face
again and again to his ear--all the time
shaking the watch as truant child, and
wondering if it had at last proved un-
faithful Maternal Idrcnts whose chill
dren were not yet disg uised in brushed
hair, scrubbed face and clean apron, ran
about in phrenzy-askinS cross hus-
bands for excuses to send with the ledr
ones who were soon to be tardy, and con-
sultipg their near neighbors in regard to
clocks.
School Directors were seen on the
streets very much exercised about some
thing (steak for breakfast, perhaps). /.
The Principal Of the school thinking
that the building was on fire, rushed
from his breakfast table like fugative
from justice. When cooler all decided
that the ringing oi mat bell was very
much like the Graphic Balloon ASsen-
sion, if well meant it was poorly exc
cuted.
Janitors please do not be so naughty
again till about the first of April, and
oblige

Our friend of the Port Vincent 1ri-
nnc is terribly down on Unifcation,
and would prefer utilization with the
Republican party to acquiescence in
the new movement. The NatchitOches
Times and several other of our coun-
try exchanges are Of the same mind.
We feel strengthened in the opinion
expressed last week, in the CHIEF,
that the moral effect Of the Unifica-
ton movement would be, good but
that it would fail to effect q disinte-
grafton of existing political parties.
From present indications it bids fair
to bring an immense number of re-
cruits into the Republican ranks, 30
hurrah for Uni6cation, say we.

TRIUMPH OF AUDITOR CLINTON
OVER THE BROKERS RING,

State Treasurer Dubuclet was 20
bent upon protecting his friends, the
brokers, from tho discontinue they
would suffer in event of the success
Of Auditor Clinton's splendid plan for
redeelning the State credit and rap
idly diminishing the public debt, that
he refused to obey a mandamus from
the Superior District Court ordering
him to receive the warrants that the
Auditor had purchased at public auc~
ton for forty-odd per cent. below the
face value, making clear gain to the
State Of fifty-nine thousand dollars.
Mr.. Dubuclet was at once arrested
and committed to Jail for contempt of
court, but before he had been in dur
ance vile m hour, he came to his sober
senses and signified his willingness to
receive the warrants, which he after
wards did.
The people will rejoice in the trl-
umph Of Auditor Clinton, for it augurs
q future of financial redemption and
prosperity that is cheering to antici-
pate in these dull times, when the
legacy Of On extravgant and corrupt
government is hanging like a mill
stone round our necks, paralyzing our
energies and driving capital and labor
from the State whose rich soil and
natural advantages should make her
one Of the first Of the Union.

In a very ill-natured article upon

ering as "a fizzle," because only six
teen papers were represented therein.
Our contemporary should not forget

and useful member.
