have concluded to write.
The mines are situated in a Pleasant
Valley in Richie couuty, accessible
from the State Of Calhoun by q mud
pike, and from Cairo by way of the
Cairo railroad. The surrounding coun-
try is inclined to be mountainous, and
presents a dreary aspect. The inhabi-
tapts oil this place are composed ol one
Superintendent, Col. Glenn, a very en-
ergetic man; one miner boss, whose
name is Richard Bowen; two hotels,
one kept by Captain Davis Thortman,
and the other by Mrs. Ney, owing 10
rather slack times at pres ?nt, neither
are doing a very big business just now
We have also two churchts, one school
house, one blacksmith shop, ami rever-
al dwelling houses. Our most promi-
nent men are miners, carpenters, black
smiths and merchants. The resson for
my putting miners first is because they
are not only miners but alec mule
shoers and minstTels.
It you were TO come 10 our town, aGd
on your arrival were TO 60 10 the Cal
houn House, and after supper should
happen TO take stroll TO the store, aud
after indulgng in the luxury OF one ot
B. Mier's stogies or tips you should re-
turn to your hotel. and your eye should
chance to glance toward the carpenter
shop, well, say any time between the
hours OF seven and ten o'clock P. N,
you would there behold a sight that
would remind you OF Tony Pastors
minstrel house 10 New York. Arrsyed
in their Sunday clothes you would
fnd B. Bowen, Billy Glover, c. Glenn.
P. Brown and many others who are
stars in the profession, while the musics
strains of bones, tamborine, banjo and
violin salute you until you are led, in
imagination. to conceive yourself II
bedlam or some other place. But
peep inside discloses picture that
would defy the skill OF the mott emf
nent artist. You would hardly take
them to be the same men who few
hours before came creeping out Of the
mines; therefore you can zee We erj0y
ourselves, let the times be as they may.
But beside OF our minstrels we have
some very promising men. For 10
stance, one OF our engine men il the best
shot and the best judge OF wbisky
there is in the State, while cur fire.
man on the railroad is also trustee o.
our school. We are blessed with the
privilege Of perusing your charming
paper, also the Richie Gazette. The
latter we d. rot make our biggest bets
on, because they do not publish any
thing comeipg from tnis place they
