Gold is nov arriving daily from
the Black Hills, and the shipments
made by our banks to the large east
ern cities, where the precious stuff is
prominently displayed by its recip-
tents, aid in rapidly forcing upon
the minds of the people beyond the
Mississippi the conviction that there
is gold in the Black Hills. With
this impression daily gaining siren 9Th
throughout the east, the tide oftravel,
set back for some weeks past by the
Indian troubles, has again resumed
its regular flow through our city.
The streets r again filed with long
trains of freight wagons, our mer-
chants r busy filling large orders,
money is again circulating freely,
and this, with the improvements be-
ing made on every hand, combines
to make Cheyenne as busy and
lively as she ever was. The fact that
our route is now completely guarded
by troops, and has a regular stage
line running over it, carrying pass
engers, mail and express, will give
us all the travel of the year. Other
routes may be a trifle shorter, but
ours is universally conceded to have
the best facilities for travel in every
way. The LEADER has fought the
good fight for Cheyenne and the
Hills, in the face of opposition of
every kind, and may be pardoned
for indulging In pride over the vim
dication of its course.

that the contents of the inflated can

The work of fitting up the new
building of Mr.. M. E. Post, on Fer
guson street, for the use of Stebbins,
Post & Co., bankers, which has been
in progress for some weeks past, is
now completed, and the new bank
will be formally thrown open this
morning. 1t is one of the
most elegant and best arranged
banking houses in the west. The
counter is of solid black walnut, or
nate in design and complete in finish.
The plate glass windows which sur
mount it are beautiful, and the entire
work speaks highly for the taste and
skill of its manufacturers, McPhee &
Heating, of Denver. In rear of the
banking room is the officers room,
which is tastefully carpeted and up
h~olstered, and hung with fine pic
lures. Here too, is a costly marble
mantel and a large mirror.
The vault is large, well arranged,
and admirably adapted to prevent
damage from fire and resist the arts
of the willy burglar.
The firm of Stebbins. Post & Co.
consists of Mr.. G. M. Stebbins, of
New York; Mr.. G.. L. Stebbins, of
Denver; Mr.. M. E. Post, of this city
and Mr.. w. r. Stebbins, of Atchison,
Kansas. All these gentlemen have
ample means, and are too well ac-
quainted here and throughout the
west to require any commentator
from The LEADER. Mr.. J. V. jill
Itch, ar experienced bankist, who is
a newcomer here, occupies the posi-
ton of cashier, and Charlie S. Adsit,
a young gentleman of fine business
ability and great personal popularity
hereabouts, holds the responsible po-
sition of teller
The public is cordially invited to
attend the opening, which takes place
this morning. Something worth see

windows, being between IS, 900 and

amount of silver and gold coin, and
other s'flthy lucre."

A Kind Word.

On a certain Sabbath evening some
twenty years ago, u reckless young
man was idly lounging under the elm
trees in the public square OF Worcester.
He had become a wretched waif on the
current of sin. His days were spent in
waking remorse of drunkard; his
nights were passed in the buffooneries
oi an ale-hOuse. AS be sauntered
along, out of humor with himself and
with all mankind, kind voice saluted
him. A stranger laid his hand on his
shoulder, and said in cordial tones,
"Mr. Cough, go down to our meeting
at the town hall tonight" A brief
conversation followed, so winning in
its character that the reckless youth
consented to go. He went; he heard
the appeals there made. With tremu-
lous hand he signed the pledge of total
abstinence. By Gods help he kept it,
and keeps it yet. The poor bOot-crimp-
er who tapped him on the shoulder,
good Joel Stratton, has lately gone to
heaven. But the youth he saved is to-
day the foremost of reformers on the
face of the globe. Methinks when l
listen to the thunders of applause that
greet John B. Cough on the platform
of the Academy of Music l am hearing
the echoes of that tap on the shoulder,
and of that kind invitation under the
ancient elms of Worcester. He that
winneth souls is wise.'-T l.. Cuyter.

Progress of the Railroad.

At the Directors meeting IN Bellalre last
week. twelve miles of the road were located.
The Board we believe was unanimous as to
the best and cheapest route, which Is that by
way of Wegee. Its advantages over the 9TH
ers are, a better grade, cheaper construction
and prospect for more business. The peo-
pie on that part of the line are expected to add
four thousand dollars more to their subscrip-
ton, to compensate for the increased length
of this line.
The Executive Committee was authorized
to procure without delay locomotive and
construction train, to procure ties for the first
few miles of the road, and to contract for iron
for the entire line TO Woodsfield.
The engineers have surveyed one route from
the Summit, at the southwestern end OF the
located line, to Armstrong; Mills, by way OF
Rocky Fork They will this week survey the
Anderson's Run line, between the same
points. They will then return to the Bellaire
end. and lay out the work for the contractors
who may engage to make the road bed
Work will probably be begun in two weeks.
An assessment of five dollars on each share
of stock has been made, on the entire line,
pavable on or before the 5th of June. At this
end the place of payment will be the Monroe
Bank: at Beallsville it will be at Isaac Hills
store; at Armstrong; Mills it will be at Arm
strong's store.
This money will be used in paying for the
surveys, for the construction train, and other
expenses common to the line Woodsletd
Spirit.

POETRY
III ON E T..

There is land of every land the pride,
Beloved by heaven DER all the word beside;
Where brighter suns dispense serener light,
And milder moons emparadise the night;
A land Of beauty, virtue, valor, truth,
Time tutored age and love-exalted youth
The wandering mariner, whose eye explores
The veal; ;hiest isles, the most enchanting
shores,
Views not a realm so bountiful and fair,
Nor breathes the spirit of purer air;
In every cline the magnet OF his soul,
Touched my remembrance, trembles to that
pole;
For in this land of heavens peculiar grace,
The heritage of natures noblest race,
There a spot of earth supremely blest,
A dearer, sweeter spot than all the rest,
Where man, creations tyrant, casts aside
His sword and scepter, pageantry and pride,
While in his softened looks benignly blend
The sire, the son, the husband, brother,
friend.
Here woman reigns, the mother, daughter,
wife,
Strew with fresh flowers the narrow way OF
life
In the clear heaven of her delightful eye
An angel guard of loves and graces lie;
Around her knees domestic duties meet,
And fireside pleasures gambol at her feet.
Where shall that land, that spot of earth be
found?
Art thou man pa patriot ?-look around;
Oh thou shalt find, howeer thy footsteps
roam,
That land thy country, and that spot thy home

The First Prayer in Congress.

The following letter from John Adams
to his wife, giving an account OF the
first prayer in Congress, is contained
in the volume of his letters recently
published by Hurd & Houghton, and
will be read with special interest i'll
these Centennial times:
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 16, 1774.
When the Congress first met, Mr..
Cushing made a motion that it should
be opened with prayer. 1t was oppo-
sed by Mr.. Jay, of New York, and MIR.
Rutledge, of South Carolina, because
we were SO divided in religious senti-
ment-some Episcopalians, some Qua
kers, some Anabaptists, some Presby-
terians, and some COngregatiOnalists-
that we could not join in tine same act
of worship. Mr.. Sanu'I Adams said
he was no bigol, and could hear pray
er from a gentleman of pIety and viz
tue, who was al the same time friend
to his country. He was stranger in
Philadelphia, but had heard that Mr..
Duche (Dushay they pronounce it,, de-
served that character, and therefore
he moved that Mr.. Duche, an Episco-
pal clergymen, might be desired to
read prayers to the Congress to-mor-
row morning. The motion was Sec
onded, and passed in the affirmative.
Mr.. Randolph, our President, waited on
MIR. Duche, and received for answer
that if his health would permit he GEL
tainly would. Accordingly, next mOrr :
ing, he appeared with his clerk and in
his pontificals, and read several pray
ers in the established form; and. then
read the Collect for the 7th day OF
September, which was the 35th Psalm.
You mnst remember this was the
next morning after we heard the horri-
BILE rumor of the cannOnade of Boston.
L never saw greater effect upon an
audience. 1t seemed as if Heaven had
ordained that Psalm to be read on that
morning.
After this, Mr.. Duche, unexpected to
everybody, struck out into All extem-
porary prayer, which filled the bosom
of every man present. L must confess
| never heard better prayer, or one
so we'll pronounced. EpiscOpalian as
he ON. Duche) is, DIR. Cooper himself
never prayed with such tervor, such
ardor, such earnestness and pathos, and
in language so elegant and sublime
for America, for the Congress, for the
Province OF Massachusetts Bay, and e5-
pecially the town of Boston. 1t had
an excellent effect upon everybody
here. 1 must beg you to read that
Psalm. If there was any faith in the
Sortes Biblice, it would be thought

Somebody's waiting for somebody,
Where roses and daisies white;
Meath the glance of erproud sun-over,
Are dimpling with smiles of light.
And somebody knows that somebody
Is watching for him the while,
And that somebody waits to greet him,
AS flowers the sun, with smile.
And roses are kissed by the lover,
And daisies are thrilling with bliss;
But somebody knows that sweeter lips
Are waiting for him to kiss.
And the south breeze is shyly murm'ring
In the roses and daisies ear;
