A FEW days since a man in Colusa
telegraphed to San Francisco to have a
baker sent up Immediately to work for
him. The message was repeated in
Sacramento. and when it reached San
Francisco it directed that barber"
should be forwarded. Accordingly q
venerable colored person proceeded
with all dispatch to Colusa, but wasn't
needed. He returned to San Francisco
and demanded of the telegraph COM
rany a reimbursement for moneys ex-
pended. etc. And now the telegraph
operators are trying to find out whether
the blame lies in Colusa, Sacramento
or San Francisco.

FREIGHr FOR Consid-
cradle freight for Cornucopiais now al.
irving at and being shipped from this
station to its DE- estimation. Two large
mountain clippers left the other day
for that place. and several wagons arr
now being loaded at the depot with
general merchandise for the Horn of
Plenty" While the roads from points
en- the railroad east of this place to that
hourishing mining camp were rendered
almost impossible for heavy teams by
the storms of two weeks ago, the Win
nemucca route was unaffected and con-
tinues good. Transfers inform us that
with bridge over the Owyhee there
will be no difficulty experienced on this
route at any season of the year, and
that freight can be forwarded at less
rates from Winnemucca than any other
point on the railroad. The teams which
are now being loaded here will take
from ten to twelve thousand pounds
each.

MONDAY. OCTOBER 4. 1878.
The Bl-ck utII-.

In our humble way we have en-
endeavnred during the past five years,
to give the public correct and reliable
information in relation to the Big
Horn country and the Black Hills.
We claimed always that both regions
were gold and silver bearing, and that
their value for pastoral and n%grieuliur-
al pursuits, were beyond contempls-
tien that the timber in those regions
would soon prove Of immense value To-
the "far west" as Nebraska and Ruu-
sas are sometimes called. Our views
were not based upon any stereotyped
theory to be found in recent publica-
lions, but We e derived from men OF
muscle and daring. who had pcuctTa-
ted into those sections and male lin
tied explorations therein In 'G4, 'G5 aud
SO and at earlier dates. How true
these statements were and how correct
the views we advanced from time To
time, we leave, 20 far Us the Black
Hills are concerned, to the unbiased
judgment of the American public, upon
the testimony OF the large body OF
miners who went there this past spring
and summer and to that Of the militia
ry and OF the scientific corps that still
occupy them. Gold exists there aud
in paying quantities and the practical
miners who left the Black Hills in
obedience to the orders Of the govern
ment authorities, are anxious. exceed
ingly anxious, for permission to re-
turn.
That the Big Horn country is far
more extensive, far more valuable,
richer in mineral deposits. more ut
tractive and genial we firmly believe.
We only hope that the day is not far
distant when this magnificent country
will be open for settlement TO the
whites. When that time comes the
Big Horn country will rapidly settle
up with an e%nterpris'ug aud industri-
ous population.
