Yesterday, while strolling along
Eddy street, we were surprised at the
large number of new wagons and bug
gies being hauled up the street, and
upon inquiring were informed that they
were being taken from the depot to
Nealon 81 O'Brien's shops.
Al. w. Merrick, Esq, editor and
proprietor Of the Black Hills Pioneer,
arrived here from Deadwood on yes
terday's coach. He reports business
good and money plenty all through the
Hills, and says Deadwood Gulch will
yield twenty-five times as much gold in
1877 as she did in 1876. We believe
him.
Conductor Farmer reports that when
he left Denver Yesterday morning the
weather was precisely similar to that
endured by us, but that between Evans
and Pierce stations, or for a distance of
twenty miles, the sur shone brightly
and the air was mild and pleasant.
Soon after leaving Pierce, however, the
storm belt was again entered.
Tho blocL-oda on Savaptaantb streat

Guiterman s. Harrington. Handsome
John has purchased an immense stock
in the great marts of the east, of which
yesterdays arrival was but a small por-

ought to have a wife. He may be ia
miliar with the literature of ancient
Greece and Rome; he may understand

cannot crawl the skyligEt of human
wisdom and sit on the roof until he has
helped some woman to put up her back
hair.
Next to running against the end of Il
moving freight car, or colliding with
the side of Il brick house in the dark,
there isn't anything that will swoop the
pins out from under a man, take the
wind out of his lungs, and stand his
head the wrong way on his shoulders,
equal to coming around a corner and
Unexpectedly running against the fore
most end of a frisky February wind,
intent on travelling over the same side
walk in an exactly opposite direction.
Emperor William, of Prussia, is one
of the latest distinguished arrivals in
Cheyenne. He is travelling under an
assumed name, and will remain in
Cheyenne for some weeks. We have
tried to interview this great German
monarch, but as he does not speak
English, and we V only in the
purest Castilian, the conversation
business ia failure. He will smoke a

memory green at this office.
