DEAR RRPUBLTCAN:-Did yo1 ever
climb a mountain? don't mean by
road or bride path, but right I'D the
steep face of the hill. To thus,climb the
rugged ascent of a mountain side in
the dense wilderness is a far different
thing. Some days since after an hours
laborious climbing | gained the summit
Of one of our highest hills. The first
sensation of the prospect was simply of
immensity. My eye swept the vast
space that was bounded only by the
hszs of distance. One vast undula-
ting Sea OF forest trees seemed to come
rolling in to the base Of the hill with
only glimpse of the Greenbrier and
New Rivers, and little else 10 break
the vision except here and there a
patch of cultivated land in the Valley
with some hill side fields hanging as It
were on an angle OF about fifty degrees.
There are thoughts deep and holy
which float through ones mind, as gag
ing upon such scene one contrasts the
smallness of man with the magnitude
of Gods works, and in the wierd silence
eontemplates the perishable with the
everlasting hills.
There was first class row at our
court house last Tuesday which result
ed in number of bruised heads, bloody
noses aud bunged eyes. There was
general fight between the Bucklands
and the Grimmetts growing out Of an
old feud of soma thirty years standing.
1t was lively while 1t lasted and re-
quired sometime for the officers to sup
press it. The aggressors were arrested
and held to answer at our April Court.
Our people here as a general thing
do not look as if they had just jumped
out of a bandbox. They would not
appear to good advantage in ball
room; yet they are not bad folk for
all that. They are social, hospitable,
polite, often very intelligent.
They are not pleasant people to get
into fuss with, az they don't know
any better than to hurt somebody when
they 60 to fighting. Bat there is no
need of anybody having TO fuss with
them unless he cultivates it,
Then he can be- accommodated in short
order. have lived with this class of
people for seven years and never had
any thing bu! pleasant times with them.
speak of those who own property and
have families. Yours W. B.W

Speaking of the manufacturing out
look in Delaware County, upon which
subject it has gained much information
lately, the Delaware County, (Media)
Record" says that it fads that at no
period since the Rebellion, has the de-
mand for all kinda of cotton and wool
eu goods been 40 great, and that 1t will
require thu tull capacity of the mills,
probably for months to Tome, to supply
the dry goods market. Most Of the
manufacturers have increased the
wages Of their employees, new mills
are in the course Of erection, and gem

Temperance.
A long letter was received few days
ago at this Office from George N Dutch
or, who is now lecturing in Iowa. An
unusual press of matter excludes the
greater portion OF the epistls, which is
a graphic pen picture OF Iowa and the
West, and its publication entire is i'm
possible just at present. Mr.. Dulcher
concludes as follows:
"On my way to Iowa stopped at
Galena, the home of General Grant. |
visited, through curiosity, the Grant
Mansion. 1t is brick building, com.
manding fine view Of the city, but is
not as good q house as many Whining
ton people occupy. Like oil curiosity
seekers l felt It Incumbent upon me to
secure relic. The piano seemed too
sumbersoms an article, and discovered
that there was a fire In the stove, and
had not time 70 wait until II cooled. In
the hall stood hat rack but a. l pos.
sess ons | desisted, and there being
considerable determination in my COM
position did not want to prove fail
ure as a relic-seeker. So please 6nd
inclosed a part OF pamphlet found
upon the library table, which gener
ously divide with you without com
ment.
As the good old friends Of Whining.
ton shall read this in the columns Of
your valuable paper, | hope they will
remember by-g0ne days whsn the cause
OF humanity was on the upward and
onward course, and the humble writer
of this letter was at least one the col
or bearers. In conclusion, Mr.. Editor,
let me say that sill hold In my hand
the white banner Of temperance. In
my heart are the loved ones on the hill
and green in my memory are the re.
collections Of friends, who when days
were dark stood steadfast like NApo.

Strong Pleas for It's Confinu-
ance in the Letter Carry
ing Business.

San Francisco, 17.-Black Hawk
leYies an assessment of 25c.
The report of the Commission ap-
pointed by the postmaster general TO
to examine into the operations and
effect OF the letter express business OF
Wells, Fargo & Co. has called forth
strong demonstrations from much oil
the city and state. The Call Gays the
report is unaccompsnied by any argu
ment worthy of the name. Every
person who sends a letter by
express does 30 because he thinks be
has grea.er certainty of its prompt
and speedy transmission, than 1t he
entrusted it TO the mail. If there was
no additional security the public
would coon find it out, and the carry
ing OF letters by express would cease.
On this coast the express company OF
Wells, Fargo & Go. has been OF
inestimable advantage. Even at
present, when mail facilities are
much improved there is q certain
advantage in sending letters over cer-
tain routes by this mode. Until it is
shown that the revenues Of the
department ere iniuriously affected
by the carrying of letters by private
companies, the report will be regarded
as based on very slight pretences.
The Bulletin says no prohibition OF
the kind should be made. The
express companies of this coast
have furnished facilities which
never would have been furnished
by the postoffice department, Wells,
Fargo & Co. have transported
letters to remote mining camps
where there were no mail facilities or
where they are wholly Inadequate.
Moreover, this company has carried
valuable letters not only with greater
dispatch, but with far greater meas
ure of safety, and although the post
Office service has been greatly i'm
proved on the Pacific Coast, it is often
safer to send letter by express than
by mail. One other fact, the express
company, by reason of this service,
has actually increased the postoffice
revenue. 1t has done this by carry
ing letters wherever there were no
postoffice facilities, 30 tia. without
the aid OF the express no letters could
be sent to remote places.

western states, notably Iowa ard Min
nesota, are stocking their streams
with that most delicious OF food fishes,
the brook trout.
Utah has done something in the
matter of pisciculture, but the results
are hardly perceptible. Indeed, ii
may be questioned if the artificial
propagation of fish for the general
good will ever be an extensive or sue
cessiul industry here. There are few
'good fish streams or creeks that car
be proftabIy ut!l for fish culture;
and the waters are entirely dispro
pO:iiOnale to tie population.
but the greatest drawback t
pisciculture is the division and diver
sion Of the creeks for irrigation pur
poses. However, more than tat
been done could and should be done
in the matter of artificial propags-
ton. There is no other form oil
animal food that costs SO little to pro-
duce ss fish, and very few that are
80 nutr.tious and desirable.

Washington, 1.-THE young wife
of Minister Cnristiancy, formerly an
employe of the treasury department.
returned to Washington several
months ago, and rumors we're then
current that her return was not
altogether oWiOg to the war between
Chill and Peru, but that there was
also a domestic war between man
and wife arising from incompalibility
of temper, and the very great dis
parity of their ages. The Star, this
evening, gays it is now understood
that some OF Minister Ohristiancy's
friends who have, st his request,
investigated certain stories which
recently reached him in Peru, have
reported to him that he has
good and sufficient grounds for
a divorce. The Star says it
is further informed that it is prob.
able some SUCH proceedings will be
taken, and that Mr.. Christiancy will
soon be here TO prosecute the case.

a FAMILY QUARREL.
Hayes and sherman Fall Gut.
Aud Maybe Honest Men will
Get Their own

Washington, III is reported,
to-day, on what seems to be excellent
authority, that very serious disagree
ments have arisen between the
President and Secretary Sherman.
1t is quite certain that not only 10
the Pinchback case, but 10 ether
dispositions Of the patronage of the
treasury department the President
has gently intimated to Mr.. Sherman
that criticism was sure to be directed
to the use or attempted use of the
treasury patronage to promote the
presidential aspirations of the head
CT the department, and that he
(the Presidency no matter what his
personal feelings might be, could
not be held, even by implication, as
coEsenting 10 such proceedings.
This, it is said, has resulted in such
a condition of feeling that Mr.. Sher-
mans retirement from the cabinet is
quite likely. and it is asserted by
some of those who profess to be
posted that the date of such retire
ment will be Immediately after the
Chicago convention.
