IMPORTANT FROM THE BLACK HILLS.
A Communication from Miner who is at
Y Work Panning out Gold.


Last evenings mail from Fort Lar
mie brought us the first letter direct
from the Black Hills gold region. 1t
is from that hardy prospector and ex-
perienced miner, Mr.. II. II. Mallory,
who is well known to our people as a
most enterprising and reliable citizen.
He writes as follows
MAJOR CLAICHE, Eae tt
Editor Cheyenne LEADER:
By the dim light Of "a pine knot,
have tried here to write a letter which
may be of interest to some of your
readers.
We are isolated and do not know
what is going on outside of our present
surroundings. Still we are satisfied
with what we have here, anticipating
that, ifleft alone until we can work our
claims out, it will not always be
thusly. Yours truly.
T. H. MALLORY.
The LEADER has done its full share
in making known to the public the
great resources of Northern Wyoming;
we now point with pride to the COM
munication of Mr.. Mallory below, as
n full confirmation, in all respects, of
the most glowing reports we have
published. The LEADER has always
kept strictly within the truth, and the
facts now brought forth by the actual
experience of miners fully corroborate
every statement made in relation to
the Black Hills by the pioneer news
paper of Wyoming.

An Inquest On Abel.

Yesterday afternoon an excited indi-
viduaI, with his hat standing on two
hairs, and his eyes projecting from his
head like the horns of q snail, rushed
into the office of Coroner H. The
coroner is by profession dentist, and
his frat thought, as he glanced at the
man, was that he was we'll nigh dis
tracted with toothache. He was soon
undeceived, however, as the frenzied in
dividual cried out, as soon as he could
catch his breath after running up the
stairs "Been man murdered !"
GA man murdered ?" cried the cor
oner; show? whereof"
I'm garding, 1 believe; with club
or a rock"
elbow long ago ?" cried the coroner,
Selling his hat and cane.
"Been done a good while, and no po-
lice nor constables hasn't mover done
nothin' about it. Never been no coroner
set on the body nor nothin' of the kind;
no verdict"
"What's the dead mans name? Who
was he p cried the coroner.
ellis name was Abel"
"Abel? Abel who?"
"Don't know; never heard nothin'
but his first name"
"WelI, what is the name of the man
who killed him? Did they know? Auy
one suspected?"
"Weli, I've heard that fellow named
Cain, put out his light. Cain was the
brother of Abel, and"
The coroner smells mice, and flour
ishing his cane, cries: You git down
them stairs, my fine fellow. Git, and
don't show yourself here again +
With loud guf1aw, the fellow went
down the stairs, three steps at time,
the doctor calling after him, "How dare
you trifie with an officer in this wav ?"

A Japanese Bath.

A writer in Temple Bar says: In
Japan, even in the lowest inns, the
travellers request for bath is never
met with that stare of blank astonish-
ment which often attends the demand in
our own and every other European
coLntry. I know in Ireland once 1 asked
for bath and they brought me horse
bucket, and on another occasion. in
France, could get no nearer the article
than horse trough, while in England
aud Germany the request has more than
once led to serious breach of the peace
between myself AMI the landlord. In
Japan, on the contrary, there would be
much more surprise felt if the traveller
did not ask for one. There were no
preparations required, no rushing about
OF chambermaids, no turning on this
and off that-everything was quite
ready, and was at once conducted to a
huge wooden bath with q small earthen
furnace let in at the foot, and lid en-
closing tine whole of the top with the
exception of a space just big enough for
the head OF the bather to emerge through.
In one of these contrivances, with n
small furnace burning gayly, Japa-
nese, after his days work is over,
will sit calmly himself with the lid OH,
and the water bubbling about him at
boiling heat. He seems, however, to
like it uncommonly, to Judge from the
pleased expression on his face fast deep
ening under the process intO beetroot-
like tints and when he has at last had
enough-about an hour of it-he takes
off the lid and energies as much like
boiled lobster as q human being can be-
come. My bath WAS quite ready; the
small furnace glowed with live pieces of
charcoal the water bubbled merrily,
and my companions of the bath, taking
off the lid, invited me to enter. Not
being, however, either Japanese, blue
lobster, or a potato, / did not see any
particular object in being boiled, ard 80
had the fuel raked out of the furnace
and few buckets of cold water added
before / got in.

There is an old friend of mine here,
Capt. st. Clair Thonasson Capt.
Thomasson, who used to be "the most
popular captain on the river"-Capt.
Thomasson, who says that he is afraid
OF only two things under heaven and
earth-a mad dog and a widow-ac d
who used to believe in Spiritualism,
until the medium told him there was q
wife waiting for him in heaven, and she
was widow-Capt. Thomasson, whom
everybody knows, and he tells O pretty
story of the beautiful singer, Jenny
Lind, who came here on a visit when L
was little girl in pantaiettes. 1t
seems that she came up the river on the
captains steamer, the Magnolia !; he
fell in love with her, of course, he al
ways does, escorted her from st. Louis
to this place and accompanied her on
the morning after her arrival to see the
mighty Horseshoe falls-when she had
drawn near enough to take in its awful
grandeur, all unconscious of the crowd
that had followed, more to see Jenny
Lind than the falls, this noble woman
and simple child of genius fell on her
knees with clasped hands, and, raising
her fearful eye to heaven, sobbed out
in broken English this touching little
prayer:
Almighty God, wilt Thou be pleased to &C.
cept my heartfelt and most grateful thanks
for allowing me to look upon this, one of Thy
greatest works. Its creation tells us there is
God, and if there is unbeliever on the
face OF the earth, be pleased to bring him
Thine.
The captain has never forgotten this
prayer. How could he forget it? and I
have given it to you, word for word, az
he repeated 1t to me on the steps of the
hotel last evening. He has also given
me letter that he received from the
famous singer after her marriage. [
