presumed to be the correct version.
The people Of Custer county are al
most solid il sympathy with Jones,
who has means of knowing good
deal against the Parson, and who, we
all think, will use the influence Of his
paper to expose what be does know,
and stand pat when it comes to the
rub. He intimated to me the other
day that Dunn wasn't running the
Herald, aud that there was resort for
|hi.n in case articles which may follow
should be libelons. The editor says
but little as to bis intentions, which il
commendable, but ! am glad he made
the fact known that q threat was made
against him, which may be of some
advantage in the future.

Owing to the severity Of the past

parts descended from the mountains to
the neighborhood Of tie seashore
where they have been slaughtered by
thousands, without any apparent effect
upon their numbers. Venison is, Of

day of the arrival Of the stage to the
summit, between here and Challis,
with sixteen horses to it. 1t will ar
rive here Tomorrow night, and make
regular trips in the future.
Mr.. Duncan, one of the owners of
the Montana mine, arrived in town
this afternoon He has been very sick
and gaining strength enough to walk,
came down to recuperate.
Morrison's placer, claims are ruD-
ming in full blast.
The Pilot, first west extension Of
the Charles Dickens, is valuable mine.
The vein of ore is eight feet wide in
the face of the tuuuel, some of which
is very rich, going up into the hun
dreds per ton.
Mr.. Amos franklin is down from
Mount Estes. Old Idahoans will be
glad to know that he is one of the
lucky owners of the Montana, one of
the richest mines in the Territory.
The appointment of Mr.. j.. G. Fox
as Sheriff gives general satisfaction
throughout Custer county.
John Gilmer, who invested largely
in Yankee Fork. and Salmon river

The next day after his arrival he was
seen to enter the Herald Office, where

editor entered the parsons room and
remained about an hour, but as no
outsiders were admitted, | do not know
what passed between them. An anx-
ious publisher approached Jones after
the interview, and tried to ascertain
what conversation passed. but his lips
are closed. All he makes public is
that Dunn declare ed the article libelous

the publishing of similar letters in the
future. Whether the threat was an

ncnewai Or the oyster wsr.

Intelligence has been received from
Fredericksburg, Va, of the beginning
of an oyster war on the Rappahanock
river. On Saturday a fleet of Is alien
dredge boats entered the mouth of the
Rappahanock and began dredging for
oysters, in open violation of Virginia
oyster laws. The authorities at Mid
dlesex at C sent for a cannon, which
was brought to the river bank and
manned. The fleet OF dredges were all
well armed with muskets and pivot
guns, used for shooting ducks, and pro-
ceeded with their gathering of oysters,
unmindful of the warnings from shore.
The cannon then opened on them, and
the first round was returned by volley
from the fleet, delivered amid cheers
from the oyster pirates. The cannon, a
Whitworth, which formerly belonged
to the Richmond Howitzers, fired a sec
ond shot, with better effect than the
first, and struck n of the dredges in
her rigging. An oyster man who was
n Fredericksburg last Sunday, in CIV
ing an account Of the fight, said, to use
his enthusiastic natural language, ''the
whole fleet then made a straight shirt
tail for the mouth Of the river, their
speed being accelerated by the shots
sent after Them"

MINERAL LAND CLAIMS. .

The following is the full text of the
mineral Land bill provision finally agreed
upon in the bill which passed the SEN
ate last Thursday, providing for the
adjudication OF Mexican land claims, in
California. Colorado, Wyoming, New
Mexico, Arizona and Utah. No allow
anee or confirmation Of any claim shall
confer any right or title to any gold,
silver or quicksilver mines, or minerals
of the same, unless the grant claimed
effected the donation or sale of such
mines or minerals to the grantee, or un-
less such grantee has become otherwise
entitled thereto in Law or in equity, and
all such mines and minerals shall re-
main the property Of the United States,
with the right of working the same,
which fact shall be stated in any patents
issued under this act, but nothing in
this act shall authorize the working Of
any mines therein by any peason ex-
eept the confirmee or his assignes, until
congress shall provide by law therefor.
This clause is based upon Spanish and
Mexican ordinances, which provide
that the precious minerals should be
reserved to the clown unless specially
included in the grants.
A motion, submitted by Senator Tel
Ter, to strike out the whole clause, as
originally framed by the private land
claims committee, was defeated; yeas
73, nays 49,; but the amendatory pro-
yIsos, beginning with the word .'un-
less" and 'but," as above given, were
accepted at Tellef's instance, and it is
believed will protect all existing min
ersl rights. The other principal condi-
tioDs precedent to combinations under
this bill, are as follows:
mo claim shall be allowed for any
land the right TO which has hitherto
been lawfully acted upon and decided
by congress, or under its authority.
No proceeding, decree, or act, under
this act, shall conclude or affect the
private rights OF persons as between
each other; all which rights shall be
received and saved to the same effect as
if this act had not been passed, but the
proceedings, DEGREES, and acts herein
provided for shall be &C inclusive of all
tights as between the United States
and all persons claiming any interest
or right in such mines"
The bill also provides that all claims
not presented by petition to the proper
United States district court within
three years from the date of Its enact
ment, shall be forever barred.
