OUR CORRESPONDENCE.
Letter from the Far West.
DOUGLAS, CARBON COUNTY,
WYOMING TERRITORY,
September 3, 1879.


Welaid over at Cheyenne couple of
hours, during which time we strolled
up and down the long platform at the
depot. There are also barracks about
three miles from the city. Two cav
alrynen were sitting on their horses
at the depot, one sergeant and the
other private. They were nicely
uniformed and very neat and clean.
Their horses and equipments were Of
the finest order. I approached the
sergeant and accosted him thus
We'll, I observe you belong to
the Un;tei States armv.
To which he replied
eyes"
He was quite talkative and had the
appearance of being a whole-soul-
ed fellow. l asked him how many
troops were encamped at the barracks.
He said FIVE companies of cavalry and
one Of infantry. In eight more
r,onths he will have served ten years
in the regular army. He said there
was as much money in it aa he could
make at working-S22 per month,
board and clothes-$2o per month
was sergeant's pay and 81 extra per
month for each re-enlistment. He
has no work to do except lite guard
duty at the barracks once in every
ten days. Promotions to commission
ed officers are sometimes made from
the ranks in cases where merit de-
mands it. Married men and their
families fare very we'll. They are
furnished with house and rations for
the whole family. The wives gener-
ally wash for the soldiers for this
each soldier pays them three dollars
per month. The husbands having
nothing comparatively to do general
ly assist their wives and are thus en-
abled to wash for quite number of
soldiers, large revenue in fact, he
said ne has known instarces, here
both man and wife were .ajus.I,gUe
and economical, that when his TEN
of enlistment expired they hada good
start in the world. Thsre are gener-
ally from five to six married men in a
company. remarked to the sergeant
that l supposed he served nearly
ten years in the regular army and
had never fred gun at an enemy
He said he guessed not; that he had

A Wise Legislator.

He is successful because he has the
manly courage to rise above all per-
sonal motives or interests and cast
his vote and influence on the side of
measures which will contribute to the
well-being Of his fellow-men. The
good of the many, even though it
proves injurious to the interests of
the few, is the maxim of the wise leg
islator. But certain men will never
admit the wisdom Of this doctrine,
any more than some selisI, private
practitioners will admit the supsrla-
tive value of DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery and pleasant purga-
tive Pellets, because these remedies
have injured their praoti,e. Of
course, no man in his right senses will
pay physician $500 for consulta-
ton, bottle of bitters, few pow
ders, and prescription, when ono
bottle of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medi-
cal Discovery and a bottle Of his
Pleasant Pellets, both costing but
$l.25, will accomplish the same re-
suit, viz: cleanse the liver and blood,
regulate and tone the stomach, and
impart a healthful action of the bow
els and kidneys.

That a complete Encyclopedia, first
class in character and containing
more matter than any heretofore pub
lished in this country at any price,
should te made and sold for the trif-
ling sum of $1,000, seems so e1traor-
dinary, that many who wish it may
be true, are very naturally incredu-
lous. The same house publish large
list of STANDARD works, all at similar
ly low prices, and the presence Of
some of them already in the hands of
hundreds of thousands of lovers Of
good books in all parts Of the land, is
naturally rapidly transforming the in
credulous into patrons and enthusias-
tic friends Of the enterprise. No mys-
terry is made about the cause of the
low prices-tbey are the reduced
cost of manufacture to about one half
what it was few years ago, the l. b
cd of sale, direct to the purchaser,
saving him the large commission COM
monty paid to agents and dealers, and
very large sale. 1t is worth the
cost Of postal card to see their cat
alogue.

SURGICAL OPERAT1oN.-Ye esterda1

SURGICAL OpERATIoN.-Yesterday
morning DR.. W. F. Fundenberg, the
vel! known oculist and aurist of this
city, removed the right eye from
Christoph Eisel, aged 70, from Mt.
Savage. The operation was perform
ed with his usual skill and success.
The patient returned home on the
afternoon train, much pleased with the
operation. Three years ago the sight
of the eye was entirely lost from an
injury received whilst getting out
fire clay; lately it became painful and
was beginning to affect the good eye,
hence the necessity of the operation.
