Dr.. Youna,s sermon Last NIaht.

A large audience was in attendance
at the court house last night to listen
to the sermon Of DIR. Young, which was
nj Of his ablest efforts. His logic was
sound, his arguments excellent, and his
manner such as would interest all intel
ligent men or women, who car appre
ciate the efforts of a mind trained to
think. The exercises were unusually
interesting, and the closest attention
characterized the audience. Tonight
the doctor will deliver another of his
able, argumentative sermons. All who
will give an hour of their time will be
amply repaid.

II CITY TWO MILES IN THE AIR,

II CITY TWO MILES IN THE AIR.
Some Interesting Facts Concerning
Leadville, the Chief Mining City Of
Colorado.
Leadville, Lake County, COL, is
the highest, newest, and, for it's
size, the noisiest city on the conti-
nent. It is what tho miners call q
rattling camp. It is close up to the
snowy range, overlooking California
Gulch, the scene of the gold. hunt
ing furoro of 1859. At an altitude
of 5000 feet, or to put it more for
chilly, nearly two miles higher than
New York, it may be considered as
we'll up in the world. There is no
place like it in the whole Rocky
Mountains. It is larger city
than Deadwood on the north, or
Silverton or Lake City on the
South. The twenty-year-old towns
of Black Hawk, Central, and George-
town, are nothing to it in popula-
ton, trade, fast money-making,
fast everything. Where Leadville
now stands was year ago almost q
bowling wilderness. There were q
few prospectors busying themselves
with turning up rocks here and
there, but there was hardly what
could be called camp. No town
had been staked out. It was not
until last spring that the place was
organized and named. From that
time until now people have poured
in from all the surrounding country,
from tho far East and from the
Pacific States and Territories, until
there is bustling city of 5000 in~
habitants. 1t has a mayor: coucils,
police and fire departments, church>
es, schools, telegraph line, daily
mails, monoy-order post..oflice, two
papers, three banks, and hundreds
of stores, shops, saloons and other
features of fast new city. Tho
streets havo sort of struggling
regularity. The principal thor
oughfares are named Chestnut,
Pine, State and Harrison avenues.
Almost every thing is cheaply built,
the stores which carry the largest
stocks being mere cabins. There
are few story and-a>half and two
story buildings. Lumber is in
great demand, and the three or
four saw-mills in the vicinity are
not adequate to supply tho need.
Lately business men have begun to
plan larger and better structures,
brick-yards have been started, and
some fine blocks are under way.
The prevailing spirit is that of
rampant speculation. People stake
out claims, tear up the rocks a lit
tie, sometimes "salt" them, got
some plausible do nothing to talk up
the discovery, and it is few days
before an avaricious "tenderfoot"
catches the bait ut q high figure.
Lot brokers, who have the refusal
Of most all the desirable property in
town, lot jumpers and oity addition
platters drive big business.
Everything partakes OF the nature
of grand debauch. Men seem to
BE- carried away with excitement, and,
no longer satisfied with the plodding
and sure footed business ways,
seem lost in mad, furious chase for
fortunes. Of course, saloons, dance
houses, theatres and keno-dens
flourish in such place as this.

Losing His Wife, His Money and an
Educated Goat Worth $4,000.
Colonel Ruth Goshen, the giant,
who has been exhibited by Barnum
and other showmen in this and
other countries, has begun proceed
ings for q divorce. In 1862 he
went to live in Mrs. Augusta Mat
tees boarding-house in Delaney
street. Mrs. Mattice was q widow,
and after Goshen had been living
there o time she became engaged to
marry him. After the wedding she
accompanied him on his trips, and
three years ago travelled through
Europe with him and Donald
McKay's Warm Spring Indians.
They afterwards went to Jerusalem,
where Goshen is known. A year
ago when Goshen was living on his
farm at Clyde Station, N. j., he made
an engagement for tour through
the West. His wife refused to &c
company, he says, saying she was
tired of travelling. He left her g
the farm with their two adopted
children, the key Of the safe in
which he kept his bonds and man
named j. w. Sweet, who, Goshen
says, is the divorced husband of a
circus rider. Goshen says that
when he got home he found that his
wife had taken $4,000 in money
and bonds from the safe and had
gone. Sweet had gone too. He
says also that about. three weeks
ago his wife and Sweet took from bis
farm while he was away horse and
wagon and on educated goat that
could read and write and was worth
$4,000.
