The Black Hills.

On the goth Of August, Ed. How
ard, Jas. Somers, S. Whitebeck, and
NJ. Day left Brule City on horseback
for the purpose Of looking up wagon
route from that point into the Black
Hills country. They crossed the Mis-
souri, at Brule City, and torded the
White Earth River two and half
miles from its mouth, on the north
bank Of which they struck a trall
which they followed in nearly due
westerly direction for about fifty miles,
when they veered little to the south.
They travelled an average distance of
eighty miles from the river, where
they found level table land, upon
which loaded wagon might travel
without hindrance. They were for tie
most Of the time upon the old Harney
trail, made in 1855, and ia places it is
yet clearly defined, while in others it
is wholly obliterated. At times the
party would lose it altogether, and then
few miles further Oh would strike it
again. An Indian trail runs along the
bottom land, close to the river bank,
but this is impracticable for wagos
though it is easily passable for horse
men and pack animals. The explorers
proceed to point near Eagles Nest,
about eighty-fve miles from the river,
and nearly half way from the Missouri
to the Black Hills, but here coming in
sight of bunch Of Indian teepes, theT
thought it not advisable to proceel
further, especially as they had gone lar
enough to determine the character Of
the country and satisfy themselves Of
the entire practicabiity of the route.
They returned to Brule City, having
been absent seven bays, They did not
see an Indian on the trip, though at
distance of several miles they saw indi-
cations Of their presence as above stat
ed and in another instance they came
upon fresh trail, which indicated
that some forty or Fifty reds had passed
along not many hours before.
Mr.. Howard. who has returned to
this city, says the country bordering
the Waite Earth is very rich and fer
tile abounding in game, nutritious gras-
ses, and plenty Of timber All the
tributaries of the White Earth put into
it from the South, and therefore In tray
cling along the north bank there are
no streams to ford or deep favines TO
cross. On these tributaries TIE tifaber
is cedar, elm and other hard wood va
rieties, while along the main river itie
altogether cottonwood By this route
entrance to the hills would be effected
through neck of fertile land lying be-
tween the White Earth and the south
fork of the Big Cheyenne, avoiding al
together the bad lands which lie on ell
ther side, and if anyone will take one
Of the late maps of Dakota, upon which
Harney's trail is laid down, they csn
easily trace the route. During the
the trip the party saw elk, deer, ante
lope. badgers, etc., ETC., and Howard
was fortunate enough to shoot noun
tain lion, which he represents as hay
ing been terror-inspiring beast.

\ French pharmaceutical chemist

A French pharmaceutical chemist
has discovered way to protect horses
from the attack Of flies, according to a
London medical paper. His invention
consists in rubbing the horses, espec-
tally on the parts most subject to attack,
with little oil Of laurel. There is
not the slightest danger in its use, and
the cost is said to be very small.
Another repellant suggested by the
same person, is solution Of sixty
grammes Zone pound and five ounces
avoiraupoIs) of asafetida in two gallons
of water and one vinegar. If horses
be we'll washed with this, not fly will
settle upon them, as the strong odor
of the asafetida drives the flies away.
This drug has no deleterious qualities
as an external application, and may be
used unhesltatlngly by horsemen.

Hon pinkerton's datactivac how,

Allen Pinkerton's detectives have
undertaken the finding of the lost Phil
adelphia boy, Charles Ross. One of
the means employed is the distribution
of circular headed by photograph
of the missing child, which is said to
be an exact likeness. The citizens
have raised fund to aid the detectives.
1t is now two months since the boy
disappeared. Mr. Purcell, who offered
a reward of $4,000 for the recovery
of the child, has announced the with
drawal of his offer He says he now
believes that no crime has been COM
mitted, and that the whole affair will
be officially compounded. He adds
that he will not be duped by any ofic-
ial combination. Only detectives and
confidence men replied to his adver-
tisement.

THE TORAcrO HpoD I'M VrpcTrr

THE TOBACCO Crop IN VIRGINIA.
The Richmond (Va.) Whig of the
lst instant says that this has been the
most unfavorable season for tobacco
known in that State for years. The
spring was late and cold, which retard-
ed the growth of the plants and ex-
posed them to the depredations of the
fly. The consequence was widespread
damage and destruction, and when the
time for planting arrived not many
had the plants to set out
Some few were lucky and got good
stand, but the great majority failed IN
great measure, and some altogether,
and put their land in corn. Beds had
been resown, and in July great efforts
were still made to secure a crop, and
many plants were set out. With fa-
vorable weather in August and Sep
tember-that is, warm sun and frequent
showers-this late planted tobacco
might have made medium yield.
But August has been as unfavorable
as it could be. The first part was toe
dry, then came heavy rains, followea
by harsh, drying winds and cool nights,
continuing to the present time, which
arrested the growth of the plants. The
plants, which are still small, we ara
now told, cannot, by the most favorable
weather Ia September, recover the time
that was lost in August.

TUE GOLD DISCOVERIES. "A PARTY
Bound TO GO TO THE BLACK HILLS.
"A dispatch Of the 7th, from Bis
marck, Dakota, says:
Rich gold discoveries are reported
in the Muscle She'll near Carroll, M.
T., and' Carroll is almost wholly desert
ed for the mines. The discoveries are,
by the river, 800 miles above Bismarck,
and can be reached readily. The gold
yields from l to 7 cents per pan. Car
roll is in rich copper region. Not
withstading the strict orders relating
to Black Hills expeditions, party Of
fifty men will leave here at an eafly
hour for the hills. They will probably
be in the hills before their departure
will be made public. The hills can be
reached in ten days from Bismarck.
When once within their borders they
can defy the whole Sioux nation, and
Uncle Sam also. The party is made
up Of experienced miners and hunters,
who not only know the color of gold
and the habits of the Indians, but can
live as the red men do. They will not
bother themselves with supplies. It
is now week since the expedition re-
turned, and after consulting with the
miners who accompanied the ezpedi-
ton, the old miners here are satisfied
with the prospects, and those who have
not determined to go this fall at all
hazards are making ready to 60 in the
spring.

LAKE DIsAsTERs.-The Cleveland
PLAIN Dealer of Saturday has the fol-
lowing interesting article in regard to
the number and character of the disas-
ters on the lakes during the month of
August:
The number of disasters during the
month of August was 104, which is
less than the previous month by seven
ty, There were no gales during the
month and few accidents through smo-
Ky or foggy weather. There were six
total, losses, nineteen collisions, thir-
teen were disabled, sixteen went ashore,
eighteen sprung leak, ten sunk, five
damaged cargoes, two jettisoned cargo,
three capsized, two waterlogged, five
struck by lightning and five burned,
three of which were total losses, viz !:
the steamers Wave, City of Toledo and
propeller City of London. About the
same number of crafts were in commits
sion as during the previous month, but
a less number plying to the upper
lakes. The heaviest loss during the
month is supposed to be the City of
London, the estimated value of vessel
and cargo being somewhere about $32
500. Three of these included among
the total losses for July have since
been recovered, viz the s. V. R
Watson, NJ. G. Upper and L. Gray.
The number Of disasters during the
month was less than any previous one
since the opening in the spring. The
death casualties were twenty seven.
