Discovery OF Gold In the mig Hsrn.

We are indebted to Mr.. Walter Cooper,
who recently retur ned from an extended trip
to Custer county, for some items of interest
relative to prospecting and the discovery of
gold in the bars of the Big Horn river. 1t
appears that a party Of three men have en-
gagged in not only thorough prospecting
tour, but during last fall and early spring
have been successfully working on some Of
the bars in the Big Horn canon. Mr.. Cooper
met the parties and one Of them-Joe Ander-
son-informed him that they had prospected
the river bars for thirty miles mp and down
the river, aud that there are bars the entire
distance that will pay fiom $l.5O to $500
day 10 the hand, with rocker. Anderson
said he washed out l $50 buckets and obtained
therefrom between SIS and $50. Boran,
another of the party, washed out, last fall,
5000 buckets OF the gravel and realized 500,
and this spring he washed l, 100 buckets and
got SIS as the result. All the washing was
done with rocker and copper plates. Mr..
Cooper saw some of the gold and brought up
with him very handsome prospect, taken
from two pans of dirt. The ground can only
be worked during low water as the bars are
mostly covered during the spring freshets,
but from present indications the Big Horn
canon at no distant day will be the scene Of
extensive and profitable mining operations.

TEE TERRITORY.

On Sunday night last, At Caison creek, Gus
ter county twelve horses were stolen, eight
belonging to the stage company and four
belonging TO settlers. The thieves are sup
posed to be white men, but nothing 10 posi-
lively known in regard 70 who the guilty
parties are. It 10 rlimorcd that one Of the
stage drivers on the Boseman and Tongue
river route refuses longer to drive his Z beat''
unless an escort Is furnished. The raiders
in the Yellowstone country need and must
soon have another thorough military scourg-
ing.-C0urieY, July 10. 5
On the night Of the Goth ulr., FIVE head Of
herses were stolen from Col. DeLacy's camp
on North Fork Of Mnsselshell. near Halls.
The trail led over toward the Crazies. The
thieves are supposed TO be white men and
may try to sell the horses ON the Yellowstone
or in Gallatin valley. A reward Of $50 is
offered for their recovery or in proportion for
anv part Of them. .-Ib.
Work upon the M. N. M. Company's mill
at Rochester, Is progressing rapidly, and the
stamps will begin dropping in q week or two.
We look for large output of bullion from
this camp when it gets fairly to work.-Mad-
iso,sidn, 18TH
City Treasurer Vickers informs us that, for
the first time in many years, Virginia City
is out of debt, and has some ducats in the
treasury. This speaks well fer the economi-
cal administration Of the city fathers.-I6.
Last Sunday week, q cloud-burst occurred
on the hill between Ramshorn and Spring
gulches, in this county, doing considerable
damage to the placer claims of Moore Bros.
and Penn, in the Ramshorn.-Ib.
On Thursday morning, Tom Garvey pound
ed out three dollars from one pound Of rock
from VIM. Shields mine, at the head of
Spring gulch, near Summit, and he says there
is an abundance of ore in the mine that will
discount these fgures.-I6.
On Thursday, a train Of nine wagons, with
q company of emigants from Adair county,
Missouri, arrived in the city. There were
sixteen men and two families in the party,
and they seem to be hardy, industrious class,
who will be desirable aquisition to the Ter
ritory.-Ib. t
VIM. Shields brought down another nice
batch of dust which he has pounded out from
the ore in his mine near Summit. The lode
produces some Of the richest specimens of ore
we have seen from this neighborhood since
the days when the Kearsage was producing its
thousands of dollars per week-Ib.
Miners at the head of Mill creek are much
gratified with the fiattering prospects which
| they are getting from the quartz lodes which
were discovered there year or SO ago. They
are working steadily in the mines, sinkinl
upon and opening them, and the results are
SO good as to leave no doubt that, ere long
aourishing camp will spring up in that region
-Ib.
We hear that parties are contemplating tn
erection of another smelter at Glendale, 70
the purpose of reducing ore from the Elm
Orlu, Keokuk, and other mines in the Burn
Pine district. This will be an important ad
proportions which will make it one Of tn
most prominent points in Southern Montana

Taking population into account, Montana,
of all the Territories, has probably the largest
number of newspapers. Seven out of the nine
counties show total of two daily and ten
weekly journals. Two only of the counties
Jefferson and Beaverhead-are lacking
local organ. Other papers are soon to be
lished are to be enlarged. The MINER will
try the experiment Of daily. Mr.. L. r.
Freeman, of Utah, has material on the road
whercwith to supply Butte with the luxury of
second weekly. The Miles City paper we
count as already begun, though the initial
number has not vet appeared in these parts.

Frank Thomson. General Manager of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, arrived in
this city early on Sunday morning IN his
special car. He was accompanied 6y seven
gentlemen, including DIR. Thomson. his

A party of miners from the Whippoorwill
mine, Silver Greek Mining District, who
were fishing on the Big Blackfost river.
moved up the river, leaving r. Evans IN
Lincoln. On the 9Th of July, Evsps. in
company withJ. Eagleson, left Lincoln to
Join his party up the river at Negus' old
station, on the old stage road. While cross
ing the prairie from Daherty's ranch up, they
encountered party Of Indians, who laid in
ambush. They grabbed hold of Evans and
bis gun and dragged him off his horse.
He kept hold of his gun by the barrel,
while several of the Indians held fast to the
but. With q powerful jerk he recovered
possession of the gun. During the time he
received two dangerous cuts with knife on
the head and left shoulder. He managed TO
level one of the Indians, while the rest Of the
bloodhounds attacked his friend, j. Eaglesoi,
whom they shot dead.
In the meantime Evans mounted his horse
and came with lightning speed TO bring the
sad tidings to town. The people we're on
their guard during the whole night and this
morning, the 7th Of July, started out in search
Of the dead man. The body was found
greatly mutilated.
The Indians are intent on murder and
plunder. If sayages like these are allowed
to roam at large without an escort, in 4 small
and lonely place. with population Of only
AZ inhabitants, q big majority of whom are
women anu children, our lives and property
depend upon their mercy.
In the name Of the people of Lincoln gulch,
would respectfully submit our precariOus
position to the consideration Of His Excel
lency, B. F. Potts, Governor of Montana.

OF the Indian OutraEes ON
the big BlackfoOt.

r. Evans, the Silver Creek miner who had
such narrow escape from being killed by the
Indians on the Big Blackfoot, on the 9th inst,
arrived in town yesterday. He received two
cuts from knife, one in the head and the
other in the left shoulder-the latter being
the most painful. He will remain at the Sis
ters' Hospital for few days. From Mr..
Evans and Mr.. John Mcclure, of Lincoln, we
learn the following additional particulars of
the sad affair. ..-. eea'7s
The Indians that s.es.ss camped in the valley
Were F!!..eileads and Pen d'Oreilles, and num-
Dered about fifteen lodges. Evans and Eagle
son, after leaving Lincoln noticed a mounted
Indian following them, but paid no particular
attention to him. When crossing slough a
few miles from Lincoln three Indians jumped
up from the grass; and the mounted Indian
a big fellow, weighing over two hundred
the end of Evans Henry rifle. He would not
let 60 and was pulled off his horse. Two more
of the Indians now caught hold of the gun.
Evens who, is a powerfully built miner, BY q
superhuman effort, jumped back, pulling the
gun from the grasp of the savages, and dealt
the big Indian terrific blow on the head
Some idea may be had of the force of that
blow from its effect-it broke the gun from
the stock and killed the Indian. At this mo-
ment the attention OF Evans was directed up
the hill, where he saw three mounted Indians,
with guns in their hands, coming on the dead
run. Evans jumped on his horse, called Eagle
son to follow him or he would lose his life,
and, thanks to the running qualities of his
horse, he escaped to the camp at Lincoln. 1t
was the last seen Of Eagleson alive. The fol-
lowing day his body was found half mile
from the scene Of the ambush. He was shot
in the back, showing that he had made race
for his life, but to no avail. Eagleson was a
miner, and had been resident of Lincoln
gulch since '66, and was man universally
respected by all who knew him. The Indians
at once pulled down their tepees and marched
of down the Big Blackfoot towards Missoula.

CoNsTANTINOPLE, July 5.-The run,or

no character OF speculation, but In private
specuiation, though universal in its utility.
