The Daily Butte Miner has been en-

The Atlantis in speaking of Connolly,

in the aflidavits that produced any effect
on the jury other than confirmation of the
previously formed opinion, that the muir

The translation of Professor Norden-
skjold's Report, the first published in this
country, is concluded in this issue. Many
high encomiums have been lavished upon
1t by intelligent readers who have followed
the fortunes of the Vega from the 10y har-
Dor in the north to the sunny seas of foko-
hama. and we regretfully bid goodbye to
10 the brave voyagers who have given US
this pleasant journal of their adventures in
making the North West Passage. Espe-
cially to the scholarly translator are we
obliged for his admirable work and we
trust again TO have the pleasure of hearing
from him on other themes.
Much curiosity has been felt as to
whether General Garfield had decided to
take any notice of the old charges against
him, which have been revived since his
nomi nation. Republicans here genearlly
believe that he should treat them with ST.
lent contempt, and it can be stated on the
best possible authority. as at present ad-
vised, he will pay no attention whatever to
them. A personal friend called upon him
this evening and asked him whether the
report was true that he contemplated max
ing some statement with reference to them.

Glass railway ties having, as 1t
claimed, proved success, the inventors are |
becoming enthusiastic over glass as the
coming substitute, not only for wood but
also for iron. They cow propose to make
the track of street railways Of this materi-
nj, using broad, longitudinal sleepers OF
glass, having a groove in the upper surface,
and so combining in themselves the func-
tions OF both sleepers and rails, doing away
with the necessity for separate iron rails,
with their fasten ings, joints and other com
plicauons. Il is further believed that oy
