New SOURCES OF TANNIN-Hemlock
bark has long been the chief source of sup
ply for the acid required i'll the tanning Of
leather. The bark formerly cut from
the trees and transported great distances to
the places where it was required but at
the present time an extract is made in the
forests which answers every purpose and
obviates the necessity of transporting so
much dead wood. 1t has been estimated
that one cord of hemlock bark produces
one barrel of good tanning extract, worth
$50 1t is now found that one cord OF alder
will yield :he same amount, aud one ton Of
sweet fern gives even a larger amount In
the New England States, where the fern
grows in abundance and where some of the
wild weeds, such as .he hard tack, also con
tain tannin, new industry has sprung up
for making extract, which promises to
prove profitable to those engaged in it, and
valuable to other interests in the saving of
hemlock forests from utter destruction.

miles AND the INDIANS.
Effects Of the Vigorous Winter Campaign
in the Yellowstone Region-The
Hostilcs Surrendering.

In response to the demands of Cen
eral Miles after the fight of January 8,
in the Wolf Mountains, and pursuant
to subsequent communications held
with the hostiles through friendly Indi-
ans, a delegation arrived ut Tongue
River cantonment February 10. This
delegation consisted of some thirty
warriors and chiefs, and their object
was to learn:upon what condition they
would be permitted to surrender and
place themselves under the protection of
the government. They were told that
they would have to give up their arms
and ponies and go to the reservation
appointed by the government. They
remained there till the Odd ult., having
frequent talks with General Miles, and
then returned to their camps to deliver
their message. When the terms were
made known in the hostile camp they
were very well received, and a general
desire to make peace was manifested.
On the conclusion of the council criers
went through the camps of the hostiles
proclaiming that the wal was over and
that acts of hostility against the whites
must cease. The camps at once moved
in toward the cantonment, and while
on their way there a runner from
Spotted Tail joined them. The messen-
ger announced that the Indian chief
was coming out, sent by the Great
Father, to offer most liberal terms Of
peace. The news had a good effect, for
on the 18th of March 1876 head warriors,
including sixteen chiefs, arrived at the
cantonment to learn for themselves the
terms Of surrender, which were stated
to them as before. Nine of the braves,
headed by White Bull or The Ice, and
The Hump Head, soldiers of the Chey-
ennes and Sioux respectively, remained
there as proof of their good faith, and
that their tribes will either go to their
agencies or surrender there. The re-
mainder went out on March 23d to take
part in the council with Spotted Tail
on the Little Powder, where their flu
ture course was TO be determined.

Ano!her Black niIls Mail Contract.

A dispatch from Washington, re-
ceived last evening, says:
The Postofice Department to-day
awarded to NJ. T. Patrick a ST, 900
contract for temporary mail service six
times a week from April Goth to Sept.
30th next, over the route between
Sidney, Neb., and Deadwood, in the
Black Hills country, a distance of two
hundred and seventy miles. Provision
has thus been made for mail communi-
cation with the Black Hills, by three
routes, the other two being from Kear-
ney, Neb., and Cheyenne, Wyo. In
addition to these the Department will
shortly place a mail service OH two, or
perhaps three, of the routes leading
directly to the Black Hills from the
Missouri river, through the Sioux res
~ervation, which have been selectel by
the President under the provisions of
the agreement entered into with the
Sioux last autumn, the eastern terminal
points designated being Bismarck, Fort
Pierre and Niobrara. Proposals for
service from Bismarck to Deadwood
have already boon invited, and will
continue to be received until April
Doth.

Every heart has its own sorrow, but
an EDITORS heart Is the recipient of all
sorrows. In u wanderings about
Cheyenne we have observed one thing
that pains US beyond expression /; it is
the strong hold that celibacy has on our
city. Men who would be ornaments to
society-gems for posterity and exam
pies of longevity-are losing their vigor
and wasting valuable time in direct dis
regard Of the divine command, Sin
crease and multiply" Why this is, is
a question we cannot answer, but that
it is so, is, alas, too true. Timidity it
cannot be, for their cheek is proverbial.
Neither can it be the absence of femi-
nine attraction, for in that Cheyenne
abounds, SO the only reason left us to
assign is pure cussedness. With the
advent of leap year we had hopes, but
it has passed away and the sweets of
matrimony are left untasted, the coral
lips, the pearly teeth, the dimples and
smiles of maidenhood are all ignored.
We have many examples of this charac-
ter with intelligence, income and
manly beauty, they cause many tender
little hearts to palpitate with daily ex-
pectation. Now can nothing be done
to eradicate this wrong-must the
growth of our young city be retarded by
the obstinacy of these mistaken men ?
Neyerl don your pull-backs and beau
.catchers, put or your sweetest smiles,
prepare your feminine arguments and
assail their bachelor hearts-hold out
the inducements Of a happy home, the
innocent prattle Of a cherub boy and the
wealth Of affection brought as your
marriage dover; don't let old Father
Time step down and out with this mat
ter yet unsettled. One determined,
vigorous ove and the victory is yours
home, husband and happiness Sc
cured for a lifetime. No charge for
marriaue notices.

Col. Kinu on tho Black Hills.

Col. A. L. King, gentleman Of con-
siderable mining experience, has just
returned to Chicago from the Black
Hills. He says there are large quanti-
ties of quartz in the Deadwood region,
and the ore is generally easily worked.
The stamp mill process is all that is
required, and the cost Of working per
ton, including mining, does not exceed
five dollars. Col. King is Of opinion
that there are undeveloped ores in the
Big Horn and Yellowstone country Of
greater wealth than are found in the
mines as yet discovered in the Black
Hills, and that they are an extension
of the Deadwood belt. The placers,
which yielded s., 000, 900 last year, in
despite of Indians and soldiers, are only
partially worked, and many discoveries
have been made that will be worked
this year, if the government protects
the miners.

CASTLE
Boys Who Has Cast His For
tunes Thereon.

CASTLE CREEK,
MOUTH OF JONAH GULcH, April 4.
The road leading from your city to
the Black Hills is in excellent condi-
ton as far as RA Canon, and I made
good time to this place with heavily
loaded teams. As ever I am willing to
vote the Cheyenne route to the Hills
the best of all. Wood and water are
plentiful all along it. Ranches where
good accommodations r had can be
reached every night. BE- a
I find that Custer has improved very
mnch since 1 left last fall, and still
hold to my opinion that it will yet be
the metropolis of Dakota.
Words cannot express my surprise
upon reaching this gulch and finding a
bustling little city where I had left q
few rude log cabins. Castleton now
boasts several stores, a new hotel,
numerous saloons, and a large collec-
ton of houses and cabins-built and
under way. rft
The gulch is full of men--pilgrims
and '49ers, and more are arriving every
day, and although representation day
is not until the 23d Of April, many claims
have been jumped and lively times may
be expected here on that day when the
rightful owners appear on the scene.
Castle is a large tributary Of Rapid,
and is n Of the hardest gulches in the
Hills to work, owing to the great depth
at which bedrock is found--in fact it
has never been reached but once, and
then only by the continuous work of
40 men for three months, on a drain
ditch, the dirt from which yielded from
thirty to sixty-ive cents to the pan. A
steam pump is now at work above
Castleton, going to bedrock, and in a
few days we hope to show up n Of
the best, If not the best gulch ever
struck in the Hills.
There are numerous bars on the
creek, all Of which pay very well, and
several dry gulches, mostly worked by
Montana men, who average from $40
to $50 per day. The last one found
being Hoodoo Gulch, where gold Of un-
usual purity is being taken out-very
much resembling that from Rosebud.
We now receive mails twice a week
through Harlow's express, and you may
be sure the arrival of THE LEADER is
always hailed with delight by
BLUE GRASS.

Stages, Telegraph and The Leader.

The Lincoln (Neb., J State Journal of
April 9Th, says: Cheyenne has the
best line of stage coaches that goes to
the Hills. 1t is but a short time ago
that the stage company, on account of
the large rush to the Hills, were
obliged to put on a daily line Of coaches,
to take the place Of the tri-weekly line.
The stages are crowded daily to and
from the Hills, carrying from ten to
fifteen passengers. Each passenger is
allowed fifty pounds of baggage. Chey-
enne boasts of having the only telegraph
line in direct communication with
towns situated in the Ebony Mounds,
and a great deal Of credit is due to the
business men of the city, who so gen.
erously subscribed to the stock Of the
company. From the day that the tele-
graph line was completed the same has
been a paying investment to the stock
holders.

pioneer paper of Wyoming, supports
