THE BLACK HILLS.

Reports from the Black Hills con-
tinue to be contradictory. 1t appears
to be now-you-see-it, and-now-you-
don't kind of country, from which
no satisfactory proof of the existence
of gold in paying quantities can be OBJ
tanned. Professor Jenuey, a geologist
sent by the Government to examine the
country in the interest of science and
expectant miners, reports that he has
been unable to find gold enough to war
rant extensive operations; while on the
other hand, miners and soldiers who
have been there give the most glowing
accounts of its richness. The Omaha
Herald is informed by gentleman who
went to the Black Hills last spring
with Colonel Dodge's expedition, that
the command found q party of miners
on Castle creek, who had been at
work about thirty-fiye days. These
men were actually suffering for food,
having had nothing to eat for fifteen
days but venison. They were unwilling
to leave, however, and said that if they
were driven out by the military, they
would return, as they considered the
diggings which they had discovered
rie4 enough to pay them for almost any
amount of hardship and exposure. All
of them had gold obtained from sur
face dirt. The news of their success
excited the officers, soldiers and team
sters, and all went to work washing.
The color was found in every pan, and
Captain Spaulding, of the Third Cav
airy, obtained twenty-eight cents from
three pans of surface dirt. Many
quartz lodges were seen by the COM
mand, and the Herald informant says
the country is almost a paradise.
Pure cold water gushes from springs in
every direction; the soil is rich and
black, and the ground covered with
perfect sod, in which blue grass pre-
dominates.
This report does not tally with that
of the geologist, and creates doubt as
to the correctness of either. a dispatch
from Omaha says that Secretary Bel
KNAPP, General Crook and other dis
tinguished persons leave that place to-
day for the Hills, and possibly before
the summer ends there will be some
reliable information received from tue
enchanted region.

CHICAGO, July 16.

NhiSAuo, ouiy ~.
A schooner has just arrived, whose
captain reports that when forty-five
miles northeast of this port, about II
o'clock last night, he met balloon,
the car dragging in the water and the
two occupants clinging to the ropes.
Notwithstanding the terrible storm
which had just broken he sent out a
boat, hoping to rescue the men, but
before they could reach the air ship it
darted away into darkness and was
lost to sight. The storm is represented
as having been unusually severe, and
several propellers and sailing vessels
came near going under. The loss of
the balloon and the destruction of the
aeronauts professor Donaldson and a
Journal reporter) seems almost certain.
No further news Of any kind has been
received, and it, il feared the appre-
tensions of Professor Donaldson have
been realized, and the adventurous
men found a watery grave.

The restaurant proprietors who fur

meals for the six months, has sent bill
to the County Auditor for 1000. The
bill has not been allowed, as that officer
does not think he would be justified in
auditing bill to be paid by the county
for the meals of jury in a civil action.
If the county does not pay the bill each
juror will be responsible for his share
Of it, and will have 800 each left out OF

A New YoRH correspondent of the
st. Louis Globe says Beecher is rapidly
decaying. The fire that used to shine
from those expressive blue eyes has
gone out forever, and there is o dull
restless look in them; the face is bloated;
the head once carried erect is bowed
down when its owner appears upon the
streets, and his step is unsteady and
lettering. 1t is feared that his reason
is taking its departure, and that like
Horace Greeley he will go down to the
grave, incapable of recognizing the
dear ones about him.
