TnSlTY QUARTZ. We find the fol-
loving in reference to the quartz mines
on DradwOod and vicinity in the last
number of the Red Bluff Peoples Cause.
From II. 4. Wiley, an experienced
and well known miner of Lewiston, Trim
i!y county, who has been experimenting
ahydraulic claim for the last seven years,
and Is now owner of two promising quartz
claims, one in Trinity county, the other
n Shasta county, we learn that the live
Iy miniAg town Of Lewiston has become
somowhat famous from the finding of a
number of rich quartz ledges. 1t is with
IN the last two wears only that this fort
unate discovery has been thoroughly
demonstrated. Many of the claims are
now commencing to show handsome re
turns to their lucky possessors. Mr.. Viii
ley feels very sanguine as to the future OF
these Northern Bonanzas. Want of
proper machinery, as well as capital,
seems to be the only drawback which the
ioltmnte locators have been conterding
with in the past. But lately those din
cuities have been removed and in all
probability next summer very rich re
wrns will be the reward of the persever-
ing citizens Of Trinity county. Mr.. Viii
leg poke encouragingly Of the several
uew enterprises which are now being
opened up in the vicinity of Lewiston.

Jay Page, the Saloon-keeper who
was killed by young Webb at Winfield
was a native of Milwaukee, Wiscon-
sin, aud was raised in that city. The
Milwaukee Ercnipg Wisconsin,, Of the
9Th, copies the account of the homicide
and speaks Of Page as "notorious
gambler and desperado." And the
Milwaukee Sentinel of the 9Th, after
giving full particulars of the killing,
says:
''That Page was quick and handy
with q pistol, and had the nerve TO use
it, was evidenced when he drew a
large revolver on gambler here about
a year ago and drove the fellow in Al
colts drug store. lie was promptly
arrested and subjected TO fine Of fifty

To Neu Orlesns.

The question of river transportation
is now being agitated in SoutAernKau-
sas. 1t is evident that by way of the
Arkansas River to New Orleans is the
nearest and cheapest route from this
locality to Liverpool. TIE four most
thickiy settled counties along the Ar
kansas River in this State. Sedgwick,
Butler, Sumner and Cowiey counties,
have this year 5000 acres of wheat,
and probably 100000 acres OF corn.
The cost of sending this grain by rail-
to the Atlantic seaboard, and thence
transferring it to Liverpool, is so
great as to heavily reduce the profit
upon the grain, and the cheaper trans
portation via New Orleans would be
great advantage to the producers Of
the crop. The cost of establishing
steamship line for the purpose would
be very slight in comparison to the
profit it would be to the State. Al
ready government appropriation for
the survey of the river has been pass
ed, and it is to be hoped that there
will be no delay in pushing forward
the wcrk.-TopstG Blade.

Potter's Committee.

The big gun mounted by the De-
mocracy in the interest Of Tilden to
unseat Hayes, don't seem to perform
very satisfactorily for the fellows
charged with the duty OF swabbiDg
and printing. She seems inclined to
blow out at the teuch-hole and to kick
most vigorously. Where the muzzle
is heard from once in weak, uncer-
trim discharge, she goes off behind at
least three times. Anderson and Me-
Lin have been terribly used up, and
neither would now be believed on his
oath. while Judge Leyisse swore
straight out that he was was offered
100000 TO vote for Tilden. Honest
Democrats, who always entertained
some doubts as 10 Hayes election, are
now convinced that Florida and Loui-
siana's honest votes belonged to him
by large majorities. Democratic con-
gressmen have already began to curse
the day when they were wheedled into
undertaking Tilden's dirty revolution
ary schemes.

ing the Greenback organ per sc, but
being a grecnbacker in contradistinc-

knowing that the Republican Con
gressional Convention in Wichita was
the first considerable political body in
this State to enunciate the green
back doctrine, and that our Senator'S
and Representatives in Congress with
voice and vote have been doing all IN
their power for the greenback, and
that the Republican party of Kansas
to-day is in favor Of making green
backs good for all debts, including
duties on imports, and in favor of 8
sufficient volume to meet ell the de-
mands of trade and commerce, VIC
most respectfully suggest to our
friends that the Republican party is
the natural place and the party thro'
which the ends in view can the sooner
be gained. AS an earnest of this opin-
ion and declaration we viii state that
x-Gov Robinson, the most prominent
Greenbacker in the State, has taken
that position, and that other prominent
Greenbackers, among them member:
Of the Central Committee, have taken
like step. AS to U. Il. Sargent, Of
Wyandotte, who is trying to shoulder

back men in the State, he is, we believe,
a wild, irresponsible, impractical pol

Renuhlican Failing in Germany.

Private letters received from Berlin
speak OF the public feeling as being
profoundly disturbed. No one dares
tors peak openly in extenuation OF No

it is said that the country is rife for a

Germany, under the Empire, is poor,
depressed and wretched: and worse
still the alliance between the Gar and
Emperor is dangerous. Germany may

summer vacation. The ladies of the

After dinner the children enjoyed
themselves in swinging, some of the
elder ones assisting them in their
sport, while others gathered under
the shady trees in groups of two and
more, and whiled away an hour or
two in pleasant conversation.
On starting home we all concluded

Making ! Fol Il Himself.

UNION TOWNSHIP, June 4, rs.
SIR: respectfully ask the publica-
ton of few lines in the EAGLE
wherein | wish to call the attention of
the farmers and wheat-growers OF
SedgwicIi county to a proposition
herein contained. as harvest is fully
under Roadway, and with fair wealth
or win soon be completed, and then
we viii all begin ecnnting the cost, to
ascertain, if possible, the actual cost
of our harvest This is right, and is
something that we all should know;
and the man that has succeeded in
taking off his harvest with the least
cost should not fail to let his neigh
bors know how. and by what means
he accomplished it. Isuggest that ey-
cry man make a neat report. of the cost
of his harvest per acre, the kind of
machinery used, ETC., and at an early
day Tor whatever time it might seem
to suit the majority of our farmers,)
have farmers convention where we
would be able to canvass this ching
thoroughly, which might prove very
beneficial to US all. There are great
many other things that might be very
probably considered. The question
of sowing so much wheat with the
prospect Of moderate prices might be
properly discussed. | might say that
there are enc or two prime objects
that have not mentioned, nor do |
consider it prudent to do so at this
time. Hoping to hear further from
our farmers as regards convention
of this kind, viii leave the question
for general consideration. Yours re-
specially. f. NJ. DoFFLEMYRE.
