In answer to the hundreds of
communications We are in daily re-
ceipt of, we have compiled the bud
get of information herewith given,
for the benefit of all who are afflicted
with the Black Hills fever. While
it is not as complete as we desire
and promise to make it, we think it
will answer most of the questions
asked.
The first query propounded is
whether we really believe there is
gold in the Black Hills. This has
been too well proven to admit OF
doubt. Gold is found in paying
quantities in nearly all portions of
the region, the richest discoveries
having been of quite recent occur
renee, on Deadwood and Whitewood
creeks, some sixty miles from Custer
City, which is now a large and -four
ishing town, with regularly elected
officers, a full complement of bust
ness houses, etc.
West and north of the Black
Hills lie extensive mountain ranges
of similar formation, which have
been but little explored, but which
are full of gold and silver, which lat
ter metal has been discovered in
large and rich veins, within thirty
miles of Custer City. Good gold
quartz mines have also been found
in the Hills.
DISTANCES.
Following we give the distances
from Cheyenne to the Black Hills,
the points mentioned being, as will
be seen, at convenient distances
apart for camping, and having ac-
commodations for travellers.

These distances are by the road
soon to be built by the citizens o
Cheyenne. By the road now travel
ed the distance from Cheyenne to
Custer City is 246 miles.
TRANSFORMATION, ETC.
Our forwarding houses can fur
nish transportation for 1000, 900
pounds at a shipment. Freight
charges, Cheyenne to Custer, range
from 81 to 6 cents per pound, ac-
cording to kind of animals employed
and time consumed on the road.
Horses are plenty and cheap here.
Prices range as follows: Well-bro
ken saddle horses, $35 to $75 each 4;
or with saddle, bride, etc., from $40
up. Well-broken work teams, 800
to $3.50 per span ; single carriage
horses, s1Oo to $3.50 each mules,
5000 to $500 per span.
1t will cost less to outfit here than
to bring outfits with you. Heavy
stocks and hot competition cause
this. We do not say SO because we
are paid for it but because we have
yet to see the man who has QUILTED
elsewhere who does not affirm that
his outfit has cost him at least 25
per cent. more than it would if pur-
chased here.

Messrs Russell & Son at Leesburg are
still ahead in the ship building line, and are
doing thriving business at their store.
The secret societies at this place and the
neighboring village of Dorchester are in
very prosperous condition.
Many of the inhabitants of this end of the
! county favor bridge over the Maurice
River at Port Norris, as it would give them

BAY SIDE.
There has been shipped from Bay Side
this Spring up to the present time, 213, 425
pounds Of fish, the freight on the same
amounting to $S2500 Three vessels are
now employed in sturgeon fishing, and that
branch of business employs some thirty
men. The season has been very short, and
poor one for the shad fishermen. Most of
them have left and gone up the river, only
five boats remaining out of thirty five that
were here early in the season.
The travel and freight business on the
New Jersey Southern Railroad is constantly
on the increase, aad there is good prospect
of the roads becoming great thorough
fare one of these days. All that is needed
is little more energy and activity on the
part of the managers.
PORT NORRIS.
1t is said that bridge seven hundred feet
long is to be built by the Port Norris Rail-
road Company over Maurice River at
Port Norris, at q cost of about $40, 900,
to accommodate a population of about four
thousand persons on the peninsula between
Maurice River and Dennis Creek. Good
news, if true.
The train on the Bridgeton and Port
Norris Railroad was detained some time on
the up trip Tuesday morning, owing to the
fact that considerable sand had washed
