INDIAN CREEK.-We visited this min
ing camp last Saturday, but found very
little Of interest to report. There are
about one hundred men-including Chi
nese-mining in that section, and all are
doing well. Karsky & Co. own the
trading-post and keep it we'll supplied
with all the necessaries of life, and many
of the luxuries. Billy Waldorf is in
charge. j. B. Siegfried runs the black
smith-shOp and Jack Pearson spouts
Shakespeare.
The gravel mines of Indian Creek and
vicinity are among the richest in the
county, and about the hardest to work.
The creek bars, to which the mining is
confined, lay on level and in some in
stances below the bed of the creek, and
are exceedingly rocky. Worked under
attending disadvantages, they all pay
largely, the yield to the ton or cubic yard
Of earth probably averaging larger than
in any other district in this county. In
fact it is an absolute necessity that the
gold must be plenty, or the slow manner
in which the low bars have to be worked
would not pay expenses, let alone afford
ing the handsome profits to owners which
they do. On either side OF Indian Greek
are large beds Of gravel, several hundred
feet above the stream, in which no work
and but little prospecting has been done
there being no ditch high enough to cover
them. So far as ascertained there are
not as many nor as large rocks in the high
deposits as in those below, but the extent
and richness of the gravel forming the
upper benches has yet to be found out.
Quart on the brain" was the pre-
vailing malady when we were there. In
the mountains several miles Southeast of
the town, pockets Of rich float quartz are
found and much time has been spent
hunting for the ledge. On Saturday last
Siegfried and party returned from pros
pecting trip and reported having discov-
cred the lode. They brought with them
about fifty pounds of the rock, in much
Of which free gold could be seen. -Four
pounds Of this rock, crushed in mortar
and panned out, yielded fifty cents, or at
the rate Of $3.50 per ton. A day or two
later Stoddard, Bowie and others found a
ledge about three-quarters of a mile from
the point discovered by Siegfried. The
quartz is similar in character and it is
probable that both parties have found the
same ledge, though at different points.
Men will be put to work at once TO dis
cover the extent Of the lode.

CoMPLETED Ar LAsT.-The ditch Of
the Wcaverville d. 81 II. NJ. Co., was
finished last Tuesday morning and the
water turned in the same afternoon at 3
o'clock. Only twenty hours was required
to get the water through the ditch, and
Mt IL o'clock Wednesday morning West
Weaver was turned over the bank into
the Ward Mine. There is probably not
more than 400 inches in the creek at pres
ent, but if this head holds out for three
or four weeks the Company viii be able
to get off enough ground for cleanup.

A Free Fight i'm "a Church,

AT about 10 o'clock on Tuesday night
a disturbance occurred in the Ebenezer
African NJ. E. Church. which caused
great excitement. Some two thousand
colored persons and others congregated
about the church and adjacent thorough
fares. Some dissatisfaction has existel
among the members and trustees of the
church in reference 10 certain portions
of the discipline, one of which was
against the independent action of the
singing bands" who have their lead
ers, said leaders having much to say on
the affairs and discipline of the church.
These Singing bands,' it is alleged,
have largely interfered with the pro-
gress and good standing of the African
NJ. E. Churches, and the majority of
the congregations are opposed to them,
The refractory conduct of officers of
the Ebenezer Church found vent in
open violence on Tuesday evening,
fastened by the fact that its pastor,
Mr.. johnson, had "split a class" and
relieved its leader. This much incen-
sed the turbulent minority in the con-
gregation, among whom were trustees
of the church, and open violence was
threatened. Plans had been put on
foot by the disaffected members to make
an attack on the church last night, pro-
baby reinforced by insurgents from
another African H. E. church aroupd
the corner upon Sharp street. On
Tuesday night large meeting of the
officers and members was held for the
purpose of considering the spiritual
and temporal welfare of the church."
The meeting progressed as usual with
prayer and singing, BY request the
pastor commenced reading the manual
or disipline of the church, amid ejacu-
lations both favorable and the con-
trary.
A disturbance seemed inevitable, the
fact of which transpired when Thomas
Short jumped up on back seat, and
tiourishng chair, yelled out: "Judge
Gilmor will have to settle thisr' A
scene of the widest confusion ensued,
eliminating in a. frvely melee. Some
of the congregation ran out into the
street, shouting, "Murderw &C."
which quickly brought a plumber OF
policemen to the scene. Inside of the
church chairs and other available furni-
ture were being freely used, and sew
eral persons were badly bruised, but
none, as is learned, were seriously in
jured. Officer Brown upon entering
the church was struck and knocked
down with stool. The riugleaders in
the riot managed, by some rear or side
entrance to the church, to effect their
escape. To add to the excitement, the
congregation at the colored church on
Sharp street rushed to the scene with
frantic cries OF "The house of the Lord
has been attacked" "Police," "Mur-
der," &c.-Baltimore Gazette.

The Chattanooga Times asks us If it
wouldn't be well to wait and see
whether the Shelby movement is de-
serving of praise or not. We answer
no, it is not well to wait, let the other
counties proceed with the work of or
ganization, and build better than
Shelby wherever they can. Surely
our contemporary would not have the
rest of the State wait until the August
election, which alone can finally deter
mine whether the Shelby move IS exact
ly the thing or not. What we praise
in the Shelby move is the earnest man.
Hesitation of a will to cooperate for
the common good, and the setting on
foot of a Democratic organization to
carry out that will. Whether or not,
the means adopted are the best for
Shelby county, is a matter that the peo-
pie of Shelby must determine for them
selves. And so of other counties, the
people ofeach best know their localneeds
and circumstances. Even if this Shelby
move should fail, that need be no omen
that organization would fail in Other
counties less divided heretofore. MOI
would it dim the bright example of I'M.
tiative cooperation already given
Such failure would not diminish the
need for local orgs nization elsewhere
but would rather increase that need, so
far as the State elections are concern
ed. We praise Shelby for earnest
good viii, and pray for the fruition OF
the hopes engendered thereby. We
tally one in the peoples cause. Who's
