RALEIGH, N. G., October Ex-senator
Thos. +. Bayard was serenaded tonight.
In his speech he asked the people Of North
Carolina, in 1870, to act upon the prinCi-
pal that party trickery was not politics,
but that duty to the country was next to
devotion to God. He wanted the men OF
the South united, not for Southern pre-
pondercnce or Southern control, but to
secure the first great principle Of happy
union-Lhe equality Of the States. lIe
urged the people Of North Carolina to
cultivate good will between the sections,
and hoped the people Of all States would
do likewise. lie concluded amid great
cheering. He was escorted 10 the depot
by music and military companies Of the

The Black HilIs..PrOi. Jenney's
Report.

CHEYENNE, October l6.-Prof. Walter
B. Jenney, chief OF the Geographical Ex-
petition to the Black Hills, and assist
ants, returned here to-day, having spent
five months in the Hills and made quite
thorough examination Of the whole
country, and mapped 1t from Belle
Fourche to the South Fork Of the Chey-
enne River. He reports gold fields ex-
tending forty miles north from Harney's
Peak, and twenty miles wide, that con-
tain gold in quantities that will pay
from three to five dollars per day to the
man, and that there are bars on numbers OF
streams that will pay much more than
that. Water supplies are ample for
working purposes, and the fall is sufi-
clent to carry water from the top Of most
OF the bars and allow the tailings to be
readily disposed OF. The gold is coarse
scale, good, and easily separated from
the gravel and sand. The Professor has
with him IN ounce Of coarse gold that
two men obtained on Spring Creek with
ten hours labor. An assay Of this gold
shows it to be $40 fine, and worth SO 43
coin 10 the ounce. Professor Jenney
corroborates General Clusters report Of
the Hills, and says they will support
thousands Of miners when the Govern
ment opens them to settlement. The
valleys are adapted to agriculture, and
the hills and Canons to stock raising.
The rainfall Is plentiful and timber
abundant, His Official report will be
made from New York, probably before
Congress meets.

CheGnteIIi9Ftteer.


The Regiaer in ia issue OF Saturday
,oo,., A por.ion Of our remarks the day
pr.rions in regard to the continued firm
ps,, Of the gold premium. It adopts OuI
Exclamation as, in the main, satisfactory
bnt intimate. thatit would have appeared
n better advantage before rather than
after the Ohio election.
We are not aware Of having at any
,ims during the Ohio campaign ascribed
tbe premium on gold to upprchenSiOns on
,bc mart Of those who had it to sell that
Cioy, Allen would be elected. 1t is quite
ro.,ible however that spectators in gold
di5 DbulIn the market in expectation oi
nj. election, and simply because they sup
no,ej they were sHculating in a natural
direction. Indeed it is no secret that
Have, election was looked upon as
, .bearo element in the gold mar
Ia, and Aliens as u "bull' element.
That il, in plain terms, the election Ot
the former was looked forward to as
likely to lower the premium somewhat
and the election Of the latter 10 Corre-
,pOndingly advance il. That the success
Of Hayes was actually followed by a
fractional advance in the gold premium
proves nothing perhaps beyond the fact
that natural influences did not assert
themselves as against speculative intu'
ences. The gold market in New York Is
notoriously in the hands Of a combins.
tion, and the premium Is forced up or
down each day without regard to natural
influences. There are those who specu'
late for fall and those who speculate
for a rise in gold. The one party habit
ualIy tries to "squeeae" the other. The
supply Of available gold IA only about ST.
100000, and a wealthy clique Can easily
make il scarce and dear is said that
gold was sold Short few days before
the Ohio election in the belief on the
psrt Of those who sold II that the tide
had turned in favor Of Hayes. These
short sellers sold that which they did not
possess, but which they expected to buy
at profit from those who would be glad
TO sell after the election. In this they
we're disappointed. Their own sales
made a strong market for gold. They
were anxious customers for IL the next
day, and seeing that gold was strongly
held they rushed in TO buy and make
good their sales for fear 1t would go
higher.
In addition therefore to an existing le.
gitimate demand for gold there was this
artificial and Legitimate demand for II,
and this latter easily explains why the
premium advanced instead Of declining
after Hayes election. Without having
during the campaign attempted to make
Abug.a.boo out Of probable rise in gold
In case Of Aliens election, or, for that
matter, without having so much as allud-
ed to 1t, so far "a we now remember, It Is
nevertheless true as We have stated
above, that the natural tendency Of
Hayes election was to cause decline in
the premium.
