The following dispatch has been re-
ceived at the Indian Bureau from Pro-
fessor Jenney, dated Camp on French
Creek, near Harney's Peak, June 18th:
ITO Hon. L. p. Smith: l have dis
covered gold, in small quantities, on
the north bank of Castle Creek, in ter
races or bars of quartz gravel. | ar
rived here yesterday. About fifteen
men have located a camp on the creek
above here and commenced working.
Gold is found from Castle Creek SOUTH
wardly to French Creek. At this point
the deposits are almost wholly i'll Da-
kota. The region has not been fully
explored, but the yield of gold has
thus far been quite small and the re-
ports of the richness of the gravel bars
are greatly exaggerated. On French
Creek the deposits of grave, are very
unfavorably situated. The water sup
ply is small ami falling and the grade
Is too little To admit of tailings being
carried off by the stream. The pros
pect at present is not such as To war
ran extended explorations in mining.
(Signed) w. p. JENNEY."

riIton VS.. Recherche Case Sub.
mitted to the Jury-Charse oil
Judge Nelson.
New YORK, June "a.
The Brooklyn Courtroom was
crowded this morning. Beecher and
wife were among the plymouth throng.
Judge Nelson said under the circu,n-
stances he vas compelled in the exam
nation of affidavits To deny the APP
~plication for the reopening of the case,
and in accordance with Beacil's re-
quest the papers were filed with the
clerk of the court. Judge Nelson then
stated that the jury might retain their
seats il they so desired, while be de-
| liyered the charge. After c%ongratu-
lating the jury on the approaching
close of their labors and saying he had
habituaily RETAINED from stating his
own opinions on the questions of fact,
he said this hour it Is your duty to ac-
cept fully and without a shade of
mental reservation the rules OF law
stated, but on the other hand | wish to
pay a like degree of respect To your
great office. You are the sole judges
of the weight of the testimony and Of
the creditability of the witnesses. A
sense OF this restraints me from com
menting on the proofs at large, and
from indicating to you what my own
opinions may be on the questions of
fact involved. Your recognition of
that as your relation to the Court and
to the cause is due to the oath you
have taken to render a true verdict
..., rl;,,. - tI, a.yiIa..pa 3 Nv ra.av
milton of it is due not only to you, but
to those parties, as the moral force OF a
verdict depends largely oa the fact,
that is on the unbiased Judgment of II
men selected from the body OF our
citizens and i'm the most solemn form
known to our laws consecrated to the
service. He then stated that counse!
had extracted so much testimony
from the Ill witnesses that If he was
to quote it to them they would
not reach their elaboration until days
hence, weary and exhausted. The
pleadings had been stated in their
hearing and they understood that the
| charge of adultery lay at the bottom of
It.. The Judge said that some testi-
mony relates to the principal question
i'm issue, some OF IL to the credit due to
certain Witnesses, and some of it to the
mere question of damage. 'he plead.
ings have been stated ir } dr hearing
and you perceive the charge of adul-
terry denied by the answer lies at the
foundation of the case. Upon the is
sue thus Joined the burden of proof
rests with The plaintiff. You are also
to understand that the evidence should
he such as to carry conviction to the
minds of just and prudent men, and
it should point to actual guilt more di-
rectly than to any other reasonable
hypothesis. The wrong charged in the
complaint might be proven by direct or
by circumstantial evidence, but such d
charge is not usually proven or, in.
deed, %proveable by direct and positive
evidence. The reason is obvious. In
most instances where, under social re-
straints, an apparent proper intimacy
degenerates into licentious acts, the
evil intent and life put on the garb of
innocence. To such cases. to all cases
of doubt and difficulty, circnmstantial
evidence must contribute to the forma-
ton of the opinion.
