a. night Cheyenne is A whirlpool Of
excitement, one hundred drinking and
gambling saloon, In full blast, brass
bands clamornE through the streets,
myriad lamps with their rr!iectors
flashing their vivid rays through the
dark shA lows upon the paipitating
mass of human bci0gs surgiug through
the wide avenues. McDauicls, Belle
Union and another varieties theatre
open their yawning door-Ways to the
stream Of mortals flowing constantly in
and out The former is tn" prominent
place; it consists of two spacious halls.
handsomely arranged and ornamcnted
and contained in one building. The
theatrical hall is resplendcnt with
gauly, trescoed walls and ceiling, the
brilliant colors and guiding being in
keeping with the tlashy tastes of the
patrons. \ range of twenty private
boxes form half oval above the eX-
tensivc lower hall, where the per-
formers, principally female singers,
congrcgate during the intervals between
the acts. The stage is pretty large
size. gayly decorated. General al
mission to the concert saloon, % cents,
including a drink or cigar; up stairs,
- cents extra. Every night the place
is crowded with this mixed population,
representing nearly all races the
tawny Indian in blanket, brccch
clout and lcggings; the greasy Mexican,
dark yisagcd and sulien; the China
man. childlike and bland; the negro,
the Kcunacka, and finally the white.
Nearly all wear the regulation SOM
brcro: buckskin suits gaily ornamented
with beads, are worn by many, but the
majority are attired in the Calforn' a
drilling. OF course every one IS armed
with a siX-shooter, or bowie, and shoot
ing or cutting scrGscs are Il frequent
resUl; Of iucbrinted contention. The
saloon is over Hooded with waiter
girls.
The gambling hall, like all the rest
in town, is run night and day, Sunday
included. openly, and is attended and
patronlzed by both sexes, old and
young. The games o. Grated are
faro, keno, roulette, "rouge ct
noir'' "yingtun, lansquenett",
freeze out or poker, and IA number
of other card games. The tables are
constantly crowded, and money changes
hands rapidly. This hall is equally as
large rs the theatre, and also trimmed
up. it is connected with the other by
three large doorways. The gambling
isdone with chips, which you receive
in exchange for your cash. The stakes
are limited from ten cents to twelve
dollars and half in faro. McDaniers
is generally considered a square
game" and literally patronized. Some
"brace" games are dealt in town, but
by the professionals are avoided, Four
dance halls are run in different parts
of town. and are well attended. but
they are the most degraded of all the
debauched dens.
Camp Carlin, mile and half, and
Fort Russell, three miles north OF
town, contribute something to its life.
The soldiers seize every opportunity to
come here. and are often seen in very
dissolute state. Every day and even
ing detailed squads are patrolllng the
streets in search of their stray com
rades, and often they are Obliged to
transport them of in wagons rus

The employment of labor has been
increasing steadily, and has not been
so general for three years as it is to day.
Wages have perhaps fallen lower, but
retail prices and rents have at the same
time more completely adjusted them
selves to a specie basis. On the whole,
the condition of our laboring classes is
better than 1t was two or three years
ago. We are getting over the percd
OF transition, and getting settled in
harmony with our changed environ
ment, to use Spencers word Spring.
