immigration.

The Humboldt Journal gives short
synopsis of the speech of VIM. j.
Sykes, at That place, "on the best
means of securing Immigration to
West Tennessee" but says that the
report Is hy no means full and that
the speech itself contained informa-
ton of vital interest to the farmers"
There is one point made which we
consider of great practical importance
and which cannot be too often repeat
ed, 1t is upon the necessity Of thor
ouEh preparation of the land before
planting and producing at home all
necessary supplies.
He said the best farmer is the man
who cultivates his crop before he plants
it, and that deep blowing is always
necessary, and this should always be
done in the Fall, az all Springs of the
year are more OF less vet, and if plow-
ing was put off until that time of the
year, there was always too much hur-
ny to plant crops well; and he thought
that in this way land was murdered
even with malice aforethought. There
was Que thought he wanted to impress
upon every farmer, nerer sell one thing
10 bag something else that could be raised
at home, If we let these plain and
simple rules he adopted, we will
soon see a change i'll the condition of
affairs in West Tennessee. Why was
Gibson county few years ago in a
better condition than any of the coun-
ties in West Tennessee? Simply be-
cause in addition to her advantages of
transportation she raised more grain,
cattle and hogs than any other county
west of the Tennessee river, being, as
we have before shown, the second hog
producing county in Tennessee in
1870. Let these facts be impressed
upon our farmers, and times will ina
prove.
Since the above was written, Major
Sykes has consented to deliver HIS ina
migration speech here next Saturday
afternoon at three o'clock. Milan and
the country adjacent is vitally inter-
ested i'll this question, and we hope a
large crowd will turn out

out of Bear Creek one pan contain

Tom Mallory, another of Prof. Us
tried and true men, took out 81 in
one pan on Iron Greek. Deadwood
and Whitewood Creeks average from
IL cents to 81 to the pan.
H. II. Hill, of Omaha, says, speak

claims prospected about Is cents to

Hills are perfectly confident in the
ultimate success of the Black Hills
as gold producing country; mining
will not commence before the last of
April.
tyDr. Reed, late Surveyor General
of Wyoming, after speaking of the
rich deposits of gold in the Wind
River, Big Horn, Owl Creek, Powd-
er River and Clark's Fork, says !:
Now is the fortunate time for the
hardy, resolute, ambitious young
men of the country to plant them
selves in the midst of these vast but
undev veloped resources, which will
give fortune and influence to those
who 90 to "stick," and work and
win.
y Judge Kuykendall, well-known
citizen of Wyoming after several
weeks prospecting in the new gold
fields around Custer and Rapid cities,
says; I saw nuggets varying from
one ounce and three penny weights
(23) down to few cents. I took
20 cents from one pan on the bed
rock, and am sure that men will
make from 81 to $40 per day. The
gravel is from six to thirty feet deep.
Of the northern diggings he says !;
There's pay all the way down; it is
from five to eight feet to the bed
rock valuable discoveries have been
made since last fall in this locality,
in which Prof. Jenney thought that
no gold could be found.
James Ward, formerly of Green
River, and well known by us, says ::
The prospects here average five cents
to the pan, and no guess work, as |

fourteen feet deep, and will average

GOLD IN THE BLACK HILLS.
Reliable Authority.

Lieut.. Warren says of the Black
Hills: Gold has been found in places
in valuable quantities.
I Fred Gunnbacher, of Bozeman,
NJ. t., says: We got $3.50 from
four pans of dirt on Goose Creek.
Col. 7. H. Stanton says he saw
Gen Crook wash out one pan of dirt
which yielded 70 cents.
A specimen of quartz from the
Big Horn district assayed in Omaha
10000 per ton.
A letter from party at Stand Off
Bar says We sluiced II days and
average SI06 per day good enough
for 10 men.
James l.. Hane, U. S. Topograph-
ical Engineer of the Jenney Survey,
confirms Judge Kuykendall's state
ments.
sCharles Wilson, reliable Montana
miner says of the Black Hills We
got as high as 20 cents to the pan on
Clear Creek, of coarse gold.
Father De Smet, the renowned
Catholic missionary among the Indi-
ans for 81 years, often saw large mug
gets which the Indians brought in
from the Black Hills.
Gold was discovered in the Black
Hills in 1886, by old Jim Goodle,
the old scout Grant, and the famous
mountaineer and guide, Bridger.
They all saw nuggets which the
Indians brought in from there.
Judge Leeper washed 12a cents
out of one pan of dirt, which can be
seen at 203 Washington street,
Boston. He says that five Montana
men had taken out from $40 to $50
per week to man.
Frank G. D. Oliver found one mug
get that weighed twenty penny
weights, being worth $50 in gold.
This was in Bear Gulch, near Inyan
Kara. Four other nuggets have
been found, worth from $27 to $36
each.
R. r. Whitney writes his wife
from Custer We find the Black
Hills all that has been represented
mountains of quartz, plumbago and
iron; gold we find in every pan that
is taken out, and my opinion is, that
it is as rich here as it ever was in
California.
Hon. P. Mckay, formerly agent
U. P. R. R., at Cheyenne, says men
are making from So to 500 per day.
He brought in gold dust and nuggets
worth $2I per ounce, gold. He says
that $4,000 men can make $5 per
day each for years to come in the
Black Hills.
Hon. J. w. Allen, who was with
Prof. Jenney, says: The bed rock
pans from 10 cents to S1.00, an aver
age of 25 cents to the pan; we have
pay streak 40 feet wide; these
mines will pay from $40 to 20 per
day to the man, in my opinion.
Since that time Mr.. A has averaged
500 per day.
Mr.. B. B. Logan, one of the first
miners in Custer Gulch, who is
vouched for by j. S. Collins, Presi-
dent Grants confidential commiss-
ioner, says We used one rocker
went to bed rock in. several places,
and the prospects yielded from 5 to
Is cents to the pan, and we are
making from So to $15 per day.
Jacob Teeters, the old hunter, and
well known in Montana by every one
who ever travelled the Benton road,
says; l got $l.25 in one pan three
times in succession another miner
got $28.75 in one pan on Bear Greek
