WASHINGTON, June 23.-Thc following
despatch has been received ut the Indian
Bureau from Prof. Janney, dated Camp
on French Greek, near Harney's Peak,
June II, 1876:
To THE Hon. E. P. SMITH: have dis
covered gold in small quantities on the
North bend of Castle Greek, in terrnces
or bars OF quartz gravel. Arrived here
yesterday. About fifteen miners have
located camp on the creek above here,
and have commenced working. Gold is
found from Castle Greek Southwark to
French Creek at this point, and the de-
posts are almost wholly in Cncotah. The
region has not been fully explored, but
the yield of gold thus far hns been quite
small, and the reports of the richness of
the gravel bnrs are greatly exaggerated.
On French Creek the deposits Of gravel
are very unfavorably situated, the water
supply Is small and failing, and tho
grade too little to admit Of tho tailings
being carried off by the stream. The
prospect Mt present is not such as to war
rant extended explorations in mining.

rauders, but they were driven off before
