it becomes known that he has wholesale house

The Black Hills Gold Find.
Letter in the St. Louis Globe Democrat !

CUsTER's PARK, June II. 1875.
We arrived here this Afternoon, after a
march Of twenty-nine miles. At 2.45 A.
NJ, we were called up, and, after having
breakfast. striking tents and packing the
wagons, were on the march at 4:3O
o'clock. We travelled through very
mountainous country and over a road
that, considering it had been recently
made, might be called good. Colonel
Dodge and two companies of cavalry
came on two days ahead of us, as our
party had to remain behind to allow Cap
tain Tuttle, the astronomer Of the party,
to locate the l04th meridian, which is the
boundary between Wyoming and Dakota.
He found that it lies considerably to the
west Of here, SO that the valuable part of
the hills, if there is any such, lies en-
tirely in Dakota.
There are several parties of miners
here, and although they have been here
two or three weeks, they have not made
it very profitable as yet. They say hat
they get from l to 3 cents to the pan,
which is not enough pay, unless it is
worked on large scale, and that could
hardly be done here, as water is scarce
and there IS not fall enough to the streams
to carry off the waste. We will know
more about the amount of gold, however,
in few days, as the miners of the party
will start to work tomorrow to keep at
it for some time.
The value Of the timber has been
greatly exaggerated, as it is all Norway
pine, and is very bent and shaken by the
wind.
There are no streams running out of
the hills large enough to float out saw
logs.
The grass here is very good, but I do
not think this is an country,
as we had snow last Saturday, and last
night we had frost at our camp, it's pc.
sition being lat. II deg. min. Is Sec,
and lon. l04 deg.
AS am rather tired after our long
ride, and this letter goes in with the
courier who takes Mr.. Jenney's dis
patches, will make this letter short, but
l will have longer, and think more
interesting note for the next mail.

All that Remains Of the Assassin

happened up to the Surgeon Gener-

while waiting took strole through the

neck Of the assassin Booth, while near by,
