was in the employ of Wells, Fargo q Cos

Paige is accused of taking the money WnH'
the stage was on the way from Pendlet0n "

UPPER Sun RIVER, July 25, 1880.
A blazing July sun sending down its frey
heat upon broad, level prairie, where for
twenty miles in any direction there is neither
shadow, shade or drop of water, produces
a situation worthy the attention of philoso-
pher. Such was my conclusion on my re-
turn trip from the Ground up" camp on the
Teton, the other day.
But the round up corral, a short distance
beyond the Teton presented at least cosmo-
politan and interesting scene, such as in the
years that have been in the country had
not expected to see. The gentlemanly capt.
talists and business men of Helena and other
localities mingling with the cow boys of the
locality, the Piegan of the reservation, the
wide-awake half-breed of Red river, with the
Canadian French and Mexican, all to the
number of fifty, earnestly engaged in carry
ing forth the wonderfully growing interest of
stoek-raising But what confusion of
tongues. Was it thus at Babel of old? If
so, what wonder there was separation of
interested parties. While on the Teton Cap
tain Buck, of Buck, Myers & Co., arrived
with his wife from Helena. To her belongs
the distinction of being the first white lady
to prospectively make a permanent residence
on the upper part of the river, but she finds
a pleasant comfortable home, and there is no
reason to doubt that short time will elapse
before the Teton will be settled with pleasant
Eastern families, which have already become
a distinctive feature of Sun River. Some
thing to boast Of is q school on the Teton.
uder the management of Miss Rosa Smith, of
South Fork of Sun River, a lady qualified
for her work. Much to my regret. did not
find time to visit the school while there.
From several children he saw "Spatsico "
received cordial invitations to witness the ad-
vancemnet of the young idea.
The season is proving unusually dry, and
the cry. of the cattle kings is hay and grass.
Extensive fires are raging on the prairie be-
tween the Teton and Marias river, an unusual
occurrence at this season of the year.

Exploring the Big Horn.

During the early days of the Black Hills
excitement, reports of rich finds In the Big
Horn Mountains were brought in by scouts.
The War Department has lately decided to
have an exploration of this section made.
and General Sheridan has ordered Lieut. VIM.
F. Clark, of the I'd Cavalry, now stationed at
Fort Keogh, to form party of fifteen men,
with half dozen or more Indian scouts, all
to be mounted and abundantly provisioned,
and to proceed on an exploring tour up the
Big Horn river Of course, the route to be pur-
sued and th exact nature of his instructions
have not been divulged by 1t. Clark, but it is
understood that the region to be more par
ticularly explored has been mapped out, and
will be thoroughly examined and described
The Indians have heretofore held control of
the great divide from which spring the tribu-
taries of the Yellowstone and the streams
that flow southwark into the Platte, and even
the most adventurous miners have not sue
ceeded in penetrating the Big Horn mountain
ranges. But the Indians have of late become
less troublesome, the hostile Sioux having
sought new hunting grounds, and now is
good time to ascertain what ground there is
for the general belief that the hills and valleys
abound in precious metals. 1t is claimed that
sscolor" has invariably been found in the
sands of the streams that issue from the
mountains, and wherever "color" is discov-
cred by the cursory observer, it is assumed
to indicate that rich mines are not far away.
THrRTY-Two grain vessels which sailed from
the ports of New York, Boston, Baltimore,
Philadelphia, Portland and New Orleans, III
the year ending July, 1880, were never heard
from again. One million four hundred thou
sand bushels of wheat and $50 lives were lost
in these vessels. The returns are official.
They are startling. The public knows little
of these disasters to sailing vessels. The dis
asters to steamships are reported, but the COL
umn of missing sailing vessels is hardly no.
ticed. Next in importance to the fact itself
is the inquiry now going on in regard to the
cause of the losses. One authority, noticing
that grain vessels are more frequently missing
than ary other, attributes it to bad stowage.
Another admits that this is one cause, but be-
lieves it is not the chief one. There is not q
particle of evidence to show that the cargo
had anything to. do with the loss of any of
the New York vessels. But it is positively
known that some of the hulls were rotten.
One had not been examined for four years.
Another was repaired without discharging
her cargo or going into dry-dock, and third
was abandoned on account of the loss of her
steering gear. There is need of. Plimsoll

The large and commodious steamer
seRepublic," left the Fourth street
wharf on Friday morning, few min
utes after o'clock, with 1900 passen-
gers on boar1 en- route for Cape May.
The occasion being complimentary af-
fair to the scholars of the Grace M. E.
Sunday Schools, over fou. hundred
scholars took time by the forelock and
left all cares at home with the one idea
in view, and that was to have real
good days pleasure. On the way
down the Bay the exoursionists had
the opportunity Of witnessing Paul
Boyton on HIS nautical journey down
the Bay ,encsssd in his rubber life suit,
padding away very uncoacernedly and
at the same time enjoying his cigar.
He sat up in his queer locking rig and
blew his tin horn to attract the atten-
ton of the Republic, which responded
to the salute by blowing her whistle,
after which Paul settled back again in
the water, nothing being visible but
his head and arms, and piled his pad
dies vigorously. He was bound fer
Fortesque Beach to give swimming
exhibitions. Prof. Books band Of
Philadelphia enlivened the occasion
with choice selections on ths way going
and coming. The trip down to Cape
May was made in four hours and forty
minutes, landing at the pier few
minutes before II O'Clock. Nearly all
of the excursionists visited Cape Nay
City, and numbers Of then took baths
in Old Ocean. The bathing suits of
the ladies were very becoming, and the
|, bathing was very enjoyable. The boat
left the CapsS at A o'clock, AID reached
Fourth street wharf few minutes after
ten o'clock. The gentlemenWho got up
the excursion, deserve praise for their
efficient and well planned arrange
ments. Losing the bearings delayed
the boat about an hour at tAe mouth Of
tina creek.

New CASTLE, June 26.
Three funerals in our city yesterday.
Most of the Cincinnati delegation
from our city returned home last even
ing.
There Is not as yet much enthusiasm
manifested by the Democrats Of our city
over the Presidential nomination, but
they appear to be satisfied.
The entertainment given by the W.
c. T. U. at the Court House last even
ing. was not SO largely attended as it
should have been, owing to the heat
and threatening aspect OF the weather.
Policeman Hanoe took to the Aims
House on Thursday evening a stranger,
middle aged man, who was said to
be suffering from the effects Of a sun
stroke received during the day while
working on farm near New Castle.
Captain Boyton passed New Castle
yesterday morning at S.55. He was in
the Eastern channel and then making
very good time. He was 25 minutes in
going from lat Glass Spar bouy to the
Can bouy, o distance of two miles. He
received his breakfast from the steam
er Vanderbilt. Shortly after the steam-
err had left him he met with an acct
dent which deranged his plan for the
time. The friction Of the paddle against
his rubber suit being unusually great,
as the tide was by this SINE against
him, and it vas necessary at such times
to make extra exsrtions in order to pro.
pei himself, the continued strain upon
certain parts wore hole in his suit,
causing q leak which placed the SWIM
msr in an unpleasant and rather dan.
gerous position. The timely assistance
however Of Mr.. William Rudolph OF
New Castle, who had gone out to wit
ness his mode Of propulsion, kindly re-
lieved the captain from any apprehen-
sion Of danger, and safely towed him to
Delaware, where he could make the
necessary repairs.
