Galena is richer and more Of It. Tue vein

Deadwood claims TO have the c~ostliest

the largest business houses, and the boes eiry
in the west.
As an evidence Of increasing prosperity
and growth, an old resident Of Dead GOOD

The ice blockade on the Northern Paci6.
railroad has finally been raised and on Sun
day last the first through train in four weeks
reached Bismarck, where it was received
with music and artillery salutes. This de-
tention is disastrous to the interests of the
railroad company. Besides the loss Of bust
ness, the transportation of materials for tht
westward extension has been so greatly de.
layed that the company will not be able t.
cross them before the ice in the Missouri
breaks up. Superintendent Towne hs'

A letter from Delegate Bennett gives the
present status Of the mail route bill so far
as it applies to Black Hills routes. The
original bill contemplated reduction Of ser
vice from Bismarck aud Sidney to one tril
a week, but the substitute afterwards adopted
in the house leaves daily service on those
routes, but cuts off the expedited service
that had been in force during the last and
current fiscal years. 1t changea the two
routes named from a City to an eighty hou,
schedule. In the senate committee to which
the bill was referred some unimportsnt
changes have been recommended. This il
not 30 bad a. it once promised to be. Daily
service was saved bv persistent fighting.

quently compelled to interrupt the speaker by calling the Senate to order and the noise

 Russian court scandal has been referred to in recent cable dispatches, and St. Pe- tersburg correspondent of the Paris Voltaire professes to give the particulars of 1t. few years ago, says the correspondent, the Ozar fell in love with one of the youngest and most beautiful ladies of the Court, whom Vienna paper calls the Princess Dolgorouky. After the birth of a child she acquired such an in- fuence over him that he wished to bring the infant up in his own family, and treat it as if it were legitimate son. The Empress pro- tested, a quarrel ensued, and the Empress left Russia and took up her abode at Cannes, on the plea of illhealth. The Czarewitch ab- sented himself from the Court The control Of the Princess over the mind and heart of the Czar seemed to increase after his rupture with bis family. He desired at one time to procure a divorce and marry her, but this was impossible unless he abdicated, and as he was not willing to abdicate the project was aban- doned. It is reported that he fell into parox- ysms of fury when he learned that he could not carry out his wishes without laying aside his crown. The influence of the Princess IS hostile to the proposed governmental re- forms, and 1t is believed she has induced the Czar to look up in his writing desk the Con- stitution which the liberals of Russia expect ed he would promulgate several months ago. If this is true it is not the first time the mis- tress of ruler has fought against the bes. in- terests of the people.

THE CONDITION OF BUSINESS.

THE CONDITION OF BUSINESS.
 That business Is in much healthier condi tion than 1t was year ago is plain to every body, but some figures presented by the mer- cantile agency of R. G. Dun lS Co., in their annual circular, may help our readers to real ize what an improvement has taken place. It seems that the mercantile failures for 1879 were 6,65S in number compared with 10, in 1878, decrease of 3,s20. But gratifying as is this decrease in the number of failures, the decrease in the amount of liabilities is still more pleasing. In 1878 the indebtedness of those who failed was 234 millions of dol lars, while in 1879 the liabilities were only 96 millions. There has been no such year since 1871, at least. In 1872, while the number of failures was some smaller, the amount of lia- bilities was over 121 millions.
 A table is given showing the geographical distribution of the failures and the percentages in each locality, which contains some very suggestive comparisons. In the Western States, for instance, the figures for 1879 show that only one trader in every 159 failed, as against one in every 100 in the Middle States one in every 93 in the Southern States and one in every 85 in the Eastern States; while in the Pacific States the failures have equalled one in every 45. Comparing these figures with those of 1878, the table clearly illus trates the uniformity of the improvement in the Eastern, Middle and Southern States, but by gain so marked in the Western States, as to indicate great stride in commercial so- lidity.
 Another table shows in @ very marked man. ner the real decrease in the number of fail ures apart from the amount of indebtedness. The difference in the aggregate between 6,65s in numbers in 1879 as compared with 1O,478 in 1878, seems much greater when it is real ized that, in 1879, only one netraderin every 105 failed, as against one in every 64 in 1878. Extending the comparison back over some years, these are the results: In 1876 every sixty ninth man succumbed; in 1877 every seventy third; in 1878 every sixty-fourth, while for 1879 it was only every one hundred and fifth trader who laid down his load. A of these figures with those that unfortunately still prevail in Canada, gives point to the marvellous improvement in the United States, though in the Dominion the signs of better times are unmistakeable.
 The outlook for business in this country is very hopeful, though the sudden transition to Is dangerous. Over-buying at high figures, stimulating production beyond the real demand and the extension of unwise credits are some of the errors to be feared and avoided.

The alleged Legislature of the Maine fusion fists has now done it's utmost and completed it's programme. Yesterday the House sent to the Senate the names of Joseph l.. Smith and Aonzo Garcelon, and the Senators voted for Governor and declared Smith elected This action shows how much regard the conspira- tors have for the wishes of the people or the opinion of the Supreme Court. It is said that Smith will not immediately issue any order that will conflict with the position of Chan- berlain, but of course such an order must be on the programme. The opinion of the Su- preme Court is expected to-day, but it will, under the circumstances, be cold comfort for the Republicans.
