LETTER FROM CORNUCoPIA.
ley-Tuscarora District-Jumping
Lots--Water Scarce.

CoRNUcoPIA. August II.
EDITOR SILVER STATE Since your
last published from u. F." little has
TRANSFERRED. Times are quite dull, al
though the work on the Leopard new
mill goes steadily on. They have now
the foundation works nearly completed,
and judging from the way they have
commenced they will, when the same is
in running order, have (for the same
capacity-30 stamps) as complete
mill as there is in the State. The mine
warrants the construction of such a
structure for reducing ores and proba-
bly, more. One great desideratum of
the place is
CUSTOM MILL.
There are hundreds of tons of rich ore
on the dumps of other mines, which
would yield prolifically had the owners
a chance to work them. The owners of
the Leopard have all the mineral they
desire to work, and they will construct
a mill of working capacity only to suit
their own wants-not what they might
do-hence, outside mines owned by
poor miners have to wait. A good GUS
tom mill wonld cure this, and treble
the bullion yield of the district. OF the
proof of this assertion it only needs to
refer to the daily assertions of some of
the best miners in the camp. 1t il the
day and night talk. All hope that some
competent party or parties will come
here and investigate the matter, be-
lieving that by so doing they will find
indisputible evidence to warrant the
investment of money in the erection of
such custom mill.
THE TOWN GROWS
Apace as fast as lumber can be obtained :.
Water is growing scarce. and the only
supply now obtained is that which
comes from the gulch up and down
which Main street runs. This can be
remedied in time, as good water can be
brought from the Owyhee by ditching,
fuming and piping. The Tuscarora
district is now amongst prospectors

BLOOD ATONEMENT.

One of the peculiar tenets of the
Mormon faith is blood atonement ="
that is, the right of the church to
murder covenant breakers. From one
of Brigham Young's sermons on the
subject, delivered short time previous
to the Mountain Meadows massacre,
the following extract was published in
the Deseret News, the organ of the
Mormon Church in Utah:
What disposition onght the people
to make of Observation-Disclosures Why,
says one, forgive them. Very good.
What did the Apostle say? He says
they are worthy of death. l am in
clined to believe his decision was a
Just one. Then, what ought this meek
people, who keep the commandments
of God, to do unto them? Why, says
one, they ought TO pray to the Lord to
kill them. | want to know if you
would wish the Lord to come down
and do all your dirty work? When a
man prays for thing he ought to be
willing to perform it himself. But If
the Latter-Day Saints should put to
death the covenant breakers 1t would
try the faith of the very meek. just
and pious among them, and it would
cause great deal of whining In Israel.
| wish We were in a situation favorable
to our doing that which is jnstltia5le
before God without any communicating
influence of Gentle amalgamation,
laws and traditions, that the people oil
God might lay the ak at the root of the
tree, and every tree that bringeth not
forth good fruit was hewn down. What.
do you believe that people wonld do
right and keep the law of God by ac-
tually putting to death transgressors?
Putting to death transgressors would
exhibit the law of God, no matter by
whom it is done-that is my opinion.
Have not the people of God right to
carry out that part of the law as well
as any other portion of 1t! Lit Is their
right to blptize sinner to save him;
it is also their right to kill sinner to
save him, when he commits those
crimes that can only be atoned for by
shedding his blood. We would not kill
a man, of course. unless We killed him
to save him. Do you think it would
be any sin to kill me- if / were to break
my covenants? Let every man preach
for himself; l am preaching my own
faith to-day. Do you believe you
would kill me if | broke the covenants
of God and you had the spirit of God?
Yes, and the more spirit of God | had
the more | should strive To save your
soul by spilling your blood when you
had committed sin that could not be
RENTED by baptism. But. says one,
will not Uncle Sam play the devil with
you? We are next to him. Uncle Sam
is part of US. and we are Uncle Sam.
and it is US and Uncle Sam together.
We have a right to worship God ac-
cording to the dictates of our own con-
science, and have right to carry ont
our religion. and there is nothing In
the Constitution aud laws of the United
States to the contrary.

many are turning their visionary eyes
of wealth that way. The ranchers OF
