BLACK HILLS PROSPECTS.
Deadwood Times.

The total assessed valuation of this coun'
ty made one year ago. aggregated something
over 100000. OF this years sessed val,
alone aggregate the: handsome sum of up.
wards Of 5000 900, or nearly twice the total
valuation of last year. 1t is only within
tho past two years that the region around
the Black Hills was settled after much diff
Guilty, and with consid, rable loss Of liie.
Within that time what great Transforms
ton has been effected! Deadwood is now q
city containing between four and FIVE thou
"a I'D population, with three eolid banking
institutions, two churches, public school,
two theatres, an evening and morning news
paper, and wholesale and retail stores of all
classes, equal 10 any that can be found in
sny city in the country, of twice the popu-
Ia ion of Deadwood. There are now over
seven hundred stamps in operation, and
it is not Unreasonable t, expect that during
the season 1000 additional stamps will be
up. Wealthy capitalists have come in and
purchased many mines at large figures, and
are now building extensive mills. Gold
paying ore is being found everywhere, and
new camps are being worked and discover
ed daily The "be,t' theory is exploded,
and the gold bearing territory viii most
probably prove to extend within the two
branches of the Cheyenne river, an area OF
1 500 square miles, sufficient to make the
gold supply permanent Our climate is de
lightful in summer, and mild in winter,
with. the exception Of occasional snow
storms. Our country produces good crops
both roots and cereals. in abundance; and
We raised sufficient potatoes last year for
our consumpt or. Our grazing lands are
fertile, and in ar ther year all the necessAr-
lea of life will be as cheap here IS in cas-
