\ fire broke out OH Saturday in an i'm
mense pile of wood at the terminus of II
wood flume belonging to II. NJ, Yenng-
ton a. Co., about three miles lelow Car
son City. The fire, which is supposed
to have been kiudled by a spark from a
locomotive, started on the windward side
of the woodpile, and made rapid prog
ress. The Carson hand-ongines We're
sent down to the fire, but could do little
to stay the progress of the flames. About
7 o. clock in the evening telegram was
received III this city, asking that Il
steamer be sent down. Application was
made to Young America Engine Com
pany No. for the use of their steamer.
| and in less than ten minutes they had
/ the machine on a train which was in
waiting at the depot. All trains below
/ had been ordered upon side tracks, in
order to give the road to the train carry
| ing the steamer, so that the engineer
turned his locomotive loose aud went
down the road at a terrific rate of speed.
The train went through to the fire in
fifty-nine minutes, including 4 detention
of fifteen minutes, caused by the acct
dent to Billy Coryell, mentioned in an.
other place. When the steamer arrived
it was estimated that about 5000 cords
of wood had been destroyed. The
steamer was at once put to work, and al
last accounts, about 10 O'Clock last night
had got the fire under such control that
no more wood would be destroyed. The
wood burned belonged to II. NJ. Iering
ton & Co., and was fully covered by
insurance. i Enterprise, 4th.

per acre. 1t is evidently the policy Of
the Government to include as much land
as possible under this designation, for
the reason that as the most valuable met
ais and minerals occur in the several vein
formations it is desirable that the lands
wherein they are discovered should be
sold in limited quantities, thereby pre-
venting the few from monopolizing large
tracts which ought to remain open to all
for exploration and development, and for
the further reason that the Government
derived larger revenue from the sale of
lands of this description.
In fine, include in the first class all
lands wherein the mineral matter is con-
tanned in veins or lodges occupying the
original habitat or location OF the metal
or mineral, whether i'll true or false
veins. in zones, in pockets. or in the
several other forms in which minerals
are found in the original rock, whether
gangue or matrix is disintegrated at the
surface or not.

Commend US Carson AppeaD to Mr..
Justice Stoutenburgh, of Phoebe, for n
just Judge. The reason for this obserya-
ton is obvious after reading the follow
ing from the RECORD Of the 9th ult.:
The first nuisance case brought before
Justice Stoutenburgh was that of a
Chiaman for keeping hog pen. John
pleaded guilty, was fined one dollar and
cost and allowed five days time to remove
his hog pen. The second case was that
Of an American citizen of African de-
scent: his case was disposed of Just as
the Chinaman's was. The third case
was that of white man; but having a
Jury to try the case, a disagreement oc-
CURED and the jury was discharged.
Then Stoutenburgh Prantedthe Chinaman
and the negro five days further time to
comply with the order, hoping in the
meantime that some white man may be
dealt with as the Chinaman and negro
/ have been. He says if nothing is done
/ to enforce the law against white men, he
will grant the descendant OF Confucius
and the son of Ethiopia thirty days
/ further time. This we regard as a very
proper course, showing a disposition on
the part Of the Justice to apply the law
fairly without regard to race, color OF
previous condition of servitude.
Unfortunately for the exalted motives
OF the Justice, but happily for those liv,
ing near the hog pens, both the China
man and negro removed the nuisance
without asking any extension of time.

THE KIoKAPoOs rrOv1NG.

Col T. c. Williams of San Antonio, and
Mr.. H. NJ Atkinson of Nebraska, called
upon us Thursday, and gave US some inter
esting items in regard to moving the Kiella-
poos and Pottawatomies from Mexico, to the
reservation in Kansas. We gave notice
some months since of the appointment of
the two above named gentlemen by the
United States government to take steps to-
wards securing the removal of the raiding
Indians of Mexico to these reservations,
and though it was looked upon at that time
as a wild goose chase, it is now proven that
the undertaking is to become an eminent
success. The commissioners passed into
Mexico about the first of May, and having
obtained assurances from the Mexican gov
ernment, prior to this time, that every as
sistance should be rendered them in carry
ing out their object, they at once applied
to Governor Cespedes, of Coahuila, who
commissioned Col Antonio Montero, high
toned gentleman and brave soldier, to as
sist them in their plans. Every obstacle
was placed in their way by the citizens of
the country, who understood that with the
Indians gone there would be no irresponsi-
bic Kickapoos, upon whom it would
always be convenient to direct the
charge of committing the depredations
upon the Texas border. They tried to
intimidate the commissioners, threatened
to assassinate them, and finally, when the
Indians had been prevailed upon to leave,
they attempted to disperse them, and even
raised subscriptions at Santa Rosa to buy
them to stay in their midst The commits
sioners succeeded in getting about four
hundred Kickapoos and Pottawatomies to
leave, and the last heard of them was after
they had crossed the Rio Grande near
the mouth of the Pecos river. They
will pass across the country between
the staxed plains and the settlements. They
objected to coming through the settlements,
feeling that they had wronged Texas 30
such an extent as to raise doubts in their
minds whether they could pass with secur-
ity through the country. They could not
realize that protection which would be.
thrown around them by the laws Of a
civilized nation. There are three In
dians going through with the commits
sioners, and several leading chiefs are
with the band moving across the upper
part Of Texas. These chiefs have promised
to return with the commissioners, and rep
resent to the tribes left behind them in Mex
leo the treatment they receive at the hands
of the government. Upon these represen-
tations the commissioners expect to move
the last OF them, and thus free our western
borders from much of the danger which has
constantly beset it. The commissioners de
serve much credit FOR their arluous and
dangerous labors- This one single act is
worth millions to Western Texas.
