ANOTHER CITIZEN GoING.-Dr. Hunter,
with his family and osFs~ss. VIII s.,-
morrow for his White Sulphur Springs on
the Yellowstone. The Doctor is now hav-
ing his place improved and win permanently
locate on the Yellowstone. In connection
with his springs he has splendid farm, a
portion Of which was cultivated last year,
and demonstrated thesfact that the Yellow
stene is one OF the most fertile valleys IN
Montana; also being more free from frost
and its consequent dangers to successful
farming than any other valley in the Terri
tory Several ranches in the vicinity of DR..
Hunters have been taken up, ard next
summer we expect to see that beautiful sec
ton of our Territory, which has but recently
been bowling wilderness, blooming as a
garden. Or. Hunter is the pioneer settler,
aud however much we may regret the loss
to our social circle of himself and his inter-
esting family, we are gratified to know that
he is making an opening for the speedy and
permanent settlement of section OF the
Territory not far removed from our town,
rich in natural resources and trust that il
will afford comfortable homes to thousands
of emigrants.

sILvEn PEcEsop Monday last Mr.
Joseph Brown Of Cherry Creek showed us
several silver bricks extracted from quartz
taken from tl,e Ems l,nsn and other loeles in
the Cherry Greek District. These little bricks
were nl;lde at the Silver Star Mill. and are
intended only as pockct-pieces and indiea-
tions Of what that District is expected to
yield to the energetic ana hopeful owners Of
its many rich and now well developed
! lodges. They were neatly engraved. each
bearing the name Of tie lode from which the
quartz that producedit was taken aud con-
tanned a large percentage OF gold. Soon one
or two mills viii be In operation in that Dis
strict, at which time largesupply OF quartz
will be on hand for crushing, when we hope
to be able to lay before. our readers statis-
tical facts that will fully verify the good
opinions and high expectations Of all ac-
quainted with this already noticeable and
attractive mineral region. N 81

GONE AT LAsT.-The coach Of Monday last
carried from us the person Of MIR. Alfred
Jessup Jun., of Philadelphia, who has
passed some months in our Territory, visit
ing what, to many other eastern gentlemen
might he considered worthless desert or
bleak range. bit to him who, though yet
young in years has seen much, and most OF
this wide world. The Yellowstone aud lis
wontlerous phenomena was Il source OF
much attraction. while our more material
resources invoked his earnest interest. We
understand it is MIR. Jessup's intention to
visit us early in summer, when we hope the
experience he has had in our Territory will
induce him to invest, or encourage the in-
vestnent of. capital for the Development OF
these sources of wealth, spacious specimens
OF which he carried with him when home
ward bound.

MAurrN.-A his residence in Helena on Friday,
March 18th, Or. Ira B. Maupn.
Painful indeed do we feel the duty of re-
cording the death above published, and sadly
do we attempt to say,a few words In testi-
mony OF our esteem and regard for the
incurred dead. We believe the deceased was
born in the state of Missouri but of Virginia
parents. and immigrated to this Territory at
very early day in its history, locating at
Alder Gulch and practicing his profession
with marked success. Afterward, and fol-
lowing ihe poprlace II, their restless steps Of
advcn.ure and fortune, located in Helena his
late home. where. also, he entered the prac4
tice OF his profession, and continued the
same up to the date of his death. With what
success and DISTINCTION therein no Monranian
needs to be told.,. I.ong the co-partner Of Or.
Click. the patronage Of the firm and their
standing m public esteem has passed into the
traditions Of this Territory. Surely the death
of such a man creates void that cannot be
confned within the limits Of home and fam
lily, but-must reach and penetrate the hearts
and homes Of our people, by whom he was
known and beloved. By all who knew him
in his lifetime TIN: sad tidings Of his death
VIM be read with deep regret. while upon
the mary who were intimately acquainted
with him in private life and professional
experience the sorrowful announcement will
fall Ikea pall.. In both relations we have
known himIwell. and ask to name ourselves
as among those OF his friends who most sim
cerely mourn his early and unexpected de-
mise. So unexpected was the dispatch
received by us from MIR. Hudncll, commune
catine.his death that, it'seemed the senses
refused to be convinced of its contents. The
deatl, OF friend is ut all times an event for
-flic exercise Of our best impulses and tender
est svmpathies, but in the. death OF Doctor
Maupin we feel as i called to sorrow for one
whom we found and considered nearer and
dearer and more beloved than any mere
friend rsn be. some years have passed
since our acquaintance began, and our fnutl4

For the Orleans County Monitor
Al TRIP TO JAY PEAK.

If any are sick, tired, dyspeptic, or
dying for want of recreation, let them
Danish dull care at once, join gay
party, and seek the good and whole
some medicine of the Mountain air,
and feast upon the delightful scenes
of Nature, and as many other things
as they choose to carry with them.
Such is our conviction, from expert
ence. Jay Peak is not the most fash
ionable resort, but with such day as
Saturday last, (Sept. 27,) with land
scape decked in the dying hues of
Autumn, one may view a picture such
as may be seen, at least, but once in
a whole year. A few years ago, a
company constructed road to the
Peak, with house as far up as was
then thought practicable, for the ac-
commodation ofpleasure seekers. The
project was not specially remunera
tive, but quite source Of convenience,
as we found The old house stands
amid the gloom, the Bowling Alley
in ruins-and our horses feasted in
the same room where Charley Clark
and wife once furnished excellent din
ners. The first thing travellers wish
to know, when they reach the base,
is the distance to the summit. An
enquiry of this character from one of
our number, called forth the reply
from aYoung .America" in that region,
"twice the length of fool" He ev-
IDENTIFY had good authority. Their
is direct, and may safely be called
steep; but to those who love noun
tain climbing, and the widest scenery
which these hills can exhibit, no more
tempting expedition than this can be
proposed. Almost the entire path lies
through heavily-wooded region and
the citizens of our heated and bust
ling cities may here enjoy the quiet
and the gloom of The forest primeval.'
1t is most interesting on this ascent,
to watch the ever-ehanging character
of the trees and shrubs, in their trans.
ition from beech, sugar-maple, noun.
! tain-ash, DC, to hemlock, white birch.
spruce and balsam-fr, and finally Civ.
ing way, near the top, to a kind Of
dwarf fir. After leaving the latter
but short ascent over bare rocks
! brings us to the summit. The scene
that is spread out on either side, is ex.
tremely beautiful. On the west we
behold the fertile land of western
Vermont, comparatively level, though
here and there diversified by hills
bordered by the silver waters of Lake
Champlain, with the blue Adirondack
mountains in the far distance beyond
| You see the farm houses clustering
into villages and can follow the
courses of the winding streams among
the hills and valleys. To the north
and west may be seen the hills Of
Montreal, and in a clear day, the glis
tening spires of the city. Eastward we
see the peaceful waters of Lake Mem
phremagog, and with the naked eye
could be distinctly seen the "Lady'
moving steadily along. The day be
ing blessed with clouds, it afforded
unspeakable pleasure to watch the
ever varying shadows as they fitted
over mountain and valley. On the
