SAN Francisco, January 15.-Wm. GOV.
erneur Morris, collector Of customs at Sitka,
Alaska, has just arrived from the North, and
in the curse of an interview confidently
states that the very rich mineral deposits of
Alaska would not fail to attract great atten-
ton in the near future. The lodes found
at the base of the mountains, which can be
traced up their sides, are worked by surface
diggers to such advantage that lsst season
small force of men made over S250,000. The
quartz diggings have been much interfered
with by reason of the little respect psid the
proprietary interests of others. Cons dera-
bic Pacific coast capital is finding its way
into Alaska, and has already brought into
prominence lines of mines as large IS the
whole Comstock lode. He believes the
mines would chow the largest body of ore
in sight in the world, and says Eastern capi-
talis's have already sent machinery for the
purpose OF developing the great mineral
regions of Alaska.

The claimant ia the daughter of the late

r. Brown by a decree of the Chancery-
Court from Greene county, Tenn, and
was restored TO her former name, Mary J.

ants first husband being clearly established,

your committee are OF the opinion that the
claimant should be granted pension, as in
her like cas- 5, notwithstanding her second
marriage. We therefore recommend the
psss 'ge of the bill.
