FROM MOSCOW.
Moscow, Aug. 9, lS


Ed. TELLER There are one or two
things of supreme Importance that
have transpirsd in Moscow within tho
past week, and it seems right and
proper that the outside world be made
acquainted Herewith First. then,
and most important of all, Jack Nay
Ter has gone and done it, i. e., he has
got married, and Miss Rebecca E.
Allen is the happy bride. IT'S fashion
able to say "happy," and if the state
'nent should happen to turn out a lie,
that fact can be pleaded in extenua-
tion and beside, if there We're no
marriages there couldn't be any d.
vorces, and the profits on law practice
would be cut down "a right smart"
The other important item is. that
Miller Shirley and his two comrades
d dn't starve to death during the three
weeks they were lost in the Bitter
Root mountains, but they came ex-
ceedingly close to it nevertheless
They had been over in Montana, and
were on their way home, and they
got lost and stayed in that predica-
ment for about four weeks, and dur.
Ing 81 days of the time they had
nothing to eat but one buzzard and
such roots and herbs as they could
gather in the woods, and for six days
Of the time they tasted not a morsel.
Some people will moralize upon this
and make unfavorable comments re-
garding the privations and hardships
men will endure from their love of
gold; but if those moralizers were
any wise logical, q little reflection
would show them how grievously they
err. At the time Miller and his com.
rades got 10 exceedingly hungry they
were coming away from the mines, and
not going to them; and besides, all the
gold they saw in their six months trip
wouldn't have begotten enough avarice
in the breast of the veriest miser that
ever lived to have caused him TO miss
q single meal.
One other thing and I'm done The
people who insinuate that Bill Oyster
went to Colfai during Saturday night,
stayed during Sunday and came back
daNng Sunday night, just because be
want>2 to spend few hours with bis
girl, arc sither very much mistaken o,
else they deliberately lie. 1t VA

August 7th, 1851
ED. TELLER: Things seem to move
along in the same general course Of
season, for there is q seed time and
harvest time, and the latter has come.
for the rattle Of the reaper and self
binder is heard in the fields, and the
toiled.stained and patient farmer is
busy in the hot sun taking care of his
crops. The yield does not premise so
large as last year, but the acreage
sown will give US as much surplus of
grain to dispose of as last year, but
the prospect Of prices for the surplus
does not look very aatteriny Those
farmers who sowed largely of fax from
present prospects Of The crop will do
well. 1t is to he hoped that some
thing will turn up to fill the depleted
purses of the ranchers, and make them
look full and thriving in place of lean
and lank like Pharohs lean kline, as
well as to make the assessor look
genial and the merchant affable, and
enable all of US to pay cur little bills
and keep out Of the sheriff's hands.
Such financial boom as good prices
would give Us increased prosperity,
and genera; Improvements boom
would result from it. Let US hope on,
the good time is surely coming. All
of the proposed railroad lines leave US
out in the cold. But thanks to the
home corporation, which appeared in
the TELLER Of Aug. 4th, one of their
proposed lines include US in the route
to the N. P. Junction. You'ns will
help we'uns out of the wilderness and
give US railroad to the capital Of
Nez Perce County ; if it is necessary
include US for depot grounds and 9
village h,mlet on the line. Stay with
it, boys, and 1 hope your highest am
bition of railroad directors will prove
fact and connecting link to us of the
north. We have no news, except that
Colfax, your sister city, had quite q
blaze. But the citizens are taking
energetic means to rebuild up again
Lewiston IAN take lesson from it
and take all precautions against fire
An ounce of prevention is better thar
pound of cure. A hint to tho wise
and so forth. must begin to cut
short by facing RIGHT ABOUT.

THE RACES. much talked of race
between Katy Shea and hummer took place
on Monday afternoon, on the track on the
hill. The race was three. fourth mile dash
for $50. Considerable interest was mani.
tested, and many bets on the side were
made when both horses passed in view on
the track. Between two and three hund.
red persons were present, with fair show
ing Of ladies'. Katy Shea is slight built

weighing about 90Olbs., and owned by Mr..
Clarke hummer is long.bodied dark
sorrel horse. weighing about 100. After
3false Starts were made wherein hummer once
run quarter before he could be stopped.
This was considered by many as q system of
jeskying by the rider of the mare. At
about ave o'clock q start was made and
hummer, although At first quarter kept
neck At neck, At the second soon showed his
blood. and With apparently little difficulty
passed the wilning stake thirty feet ahead.
After the grsndN race few foot and short
runs were made by the sons of the forest
and few "Bostirs." The result of the
race was As usual in such cases, the winners
jubilant and the losers the reverse.

DISCHARGED. 49, The examination of H.
w. Deacon under \ warrant Of arrest charg.
ing him with the murder OF Charles Adds,
occupied most Of last Thursday. Five wit
nesses were examined by the prosecution,
whenupon A. Leland. counsel for defend.
ant moved that defendant be discharged
from custody on the ground that the evi.
dencs adduced by the prosecution clearly
showed that defendant acted purely in self.
defence. The magistrate said that before
passing upon the motion he would like to
hear the statement of the defendant himself
if he chosed to make one. The defendant
then made clear statement of the circum-
stance, under which the killing took place,
which statement was fully supported by
what had been sworn to by LeBaron, who
was fer the people and the only eye witness
to the assault and the final stabbing. The
magistrate after summing up the case. de.
cided that the defendant was justified in
the use of the weapon, as he did, under the
pressure that was made upon him by the
deceased, and therefore ordered his dis.
charge.
