THOMAS MUTTON, who has been
mining in Mount Rose district for over
two years. says the SiiVer State, came
into town yesterday, and reports the
largest body Of ore ever discovered in
the Paradise mines in the Wild Gouse

being run on the course OF the vein, is
from seven to eight feet wide and does
not reach the wall on either side. The
whole drift Ia in ore. which is said to
average 800 per ton. aud the extent is
not yet known. 1t appears to DO n new

hitherto found in tho Bullion or Wild

Indian Agent I.xall..

G.. II. Ingalls,. the pious Indian agent
who has jus. been indicted for present.
ing false vouchers to the Department,
came out hera time or two and dis.
played his muni6cence to the Sho.
shones hereabouts. in the distribution
OF few 2IA shoddy blankets; a couple
OF dozen OF equally shoddy coarse
combs; an insignificant dab OF damaged
auction prints and red A.nneI, together
With morning and evening prayers.
aud q perfect over slop Of Ch risiiau ad-
vice. the latter commodity being plen.
tiful and cheap. failed TO excite the
eupidity of this typical evangelical
protector OF the Nations wards, and the
hsy-seed heart Of the epiZootied meek
aud lowly swiudler. pumped itself dry
In flooding the aboriginal lambs with
spiritual ministrations-wind. pie to q
hungry belly.
One Eastman. pious Presbyterian
proselyte. who was thrust upon the
NaVnjoes rs their agent. is probably Of a
similar breed Of cantins hypocrites.
In order TO save him from the righteous
indignation Of the Indians under his
charge. the Department found it neces-
sary to recall him, and place Captain
Bennett Of tho 9th Cavalry in his
stead, since which time everything at
the agency has been quiet and hAr-
monious. An attempt just made, to
again put Eastman in charge has eI-
cited the most violent opposition from
the Na.ajos. They maintain that he
treated them unjustly. and sytematic.
ally robbed them, while in Captain
Benentt's course there is nothing what
ever to complain Of. and they insist
upon his retention as agent.
Within the pale Of these religious de.
nominations are doubtless many honest
and capable men, but in their man
agement OF secular affairs. SOMEHOW.
those who usually secure official posi-.
tions are the hypocritical theological
dead'beats "wenriug the livery Of
heaven to serve the devil in" which,
il it does not reflect upon the Christly
claims OF these organic I:ioas, argues
very little for rhsir business perceptions
or the continuation by he Government
Of system Of Indian management, that
through long course OF years under
the "ernpgeliEing" process. has been
productive Of the worst possible results.
