what ,rr. Ensign Thinks.

Hon Frank E. Ensign, Of Boise
City, made Pheasant call on the
WoRLD. He is one Of the pioneer
lawyers of the Territory. In 1866 he
visited this place, since which time he
has practiced his profession at Silver
City. In common with all far-seeing
men, he expresses i'll glowing terms
his implicit confidence in our mines,
and the uubounded prosperity of Ida
no in the near future 1t is his opin
ion that the Utah Northern Railroad
will be FASTENED to completion, when
the attention Of capitalists will be di
rected to our mines, our valleys be
settled up, and scores of saw-nill'
erected. The future that he has pic
tured is bright, but not at all above
what the developments indicate.

singular phenomenon.

During the storm last Tuesday mud
dy snow and rain fell. Tue snow
around town has slightly dark tinge,
but on the mountains between here
and Willow creek, so we are informed
by different parties, the snow that fell
was very dark. The storm was pre-
coded by heavy wind from the south,
and we can account for the phenome-
nor on no other hypothesis than that a
heavy fog of dust was raised in Boise
or Payette valley, carried thither, and
meeting with the clouds, was gath
cred by the falling snow and rain.
