No doubt can exist that Senator John
A,Logan is gaining in political strength
Illinois. He not only retains his popu-
larity, especially among the soldier Gle
ment in the rural part of the State, but
he is regarded with rapidly increasing
favor by the wealthy, aristocratic and
conservative social circles of Chicago.
The only obstacle to his..future advance
ment is Secretary Lincoln, between
whom and himself there is strong friend
ship. 1t is probable, however, that they
can divide the easy honors.--Neao York
Herald.

The usual row occurred in the New
Jersey Democratic Convention on
Thursday last. While the second ballot
for Governor was proceeding, the. pre-
siding officer declared Leon ALBEIT the
nominee. Howls and confusion ensued,
and the meeting, after refusing to make
the nomination unanimous, dispersed
without adjourning regularly. Great
dissatisfaction is expressed by the dele
gates, and many talk of a bolt.

GENERAL JOHN S. MARMADUKE, Cf

the fact that he was a Confederate Gen

where to have fought against the United

COMMENTING upon Mr.. Gould's in
teresting.testimony before the Senate com.
mittee, the Philadelphia Times says:
Let intelligent persons take what view
they may of Mr.. Gould's career, they
will search in vain for anything of the
commonplace. He has simply bought
when other people wanted to sell and
sold when they wanted to buy As a
result he finds himself, at AZ, one of the
richest men il the world, with ability
and dicipline to maintain his fortune,
and with intellectual resources to enjoy
it when the taste for mere acquisition is
gone.

JAMES MUTT, who shot Dukes, is rather
gloomy over the delay in his trial. The
jail where he is confined is a miserable
old concern, and he is obliged o mingle
with the dozen other prisoners confined
there. The rigor of prison life, is how
ever, relaxed so that he gets fair treat
ment and good food. His mother and
sister visit him every day. and he is as
comfortable as his surroundings will ad-

Lost His Way.

S. J. Humphrey, of the Nevada
Chop House, is unaccustomed to
other trails than he travels in his daily
routine. He went to see mine on
Deer Creek, yesterday, but found him
self halfway up Grccnhorn gulch be-
fore he was aware of his mistake-of
which some miners informed him.
He was directed on trail crossing
the Grcenhorn- Creek divide,
which was his shortest road there; but
he got lost in a gulch, and after wall
dering about some time concluded he
was oyer the divide and descending into
the Deer Creek valley. AS dark was
approaching, he could not see very
we'll and came out instead, at the
mouth of Greenhorn gulch again, OK,
actly where he had started up i'll the
morning. He then made his way back
to town.

Owners Will Soon Begin Shipping Ore.

The Davitt mine continues to i'm
prove in depth, and Superintendent
Chase Is increasing his force of mi
ners as rapidly as he can make room.
The shaft, now 40 feet below the low

pied and assayed here, and then sold
10 the highest bidder in this market.
Competition is open to all, whether
local or foreign smelters.
Mr.. Chase returned to the mine TO-
day, having arranged to ship to the
sampl!ng works here one hundred or
more tons per month. AS rapidly as
the ore accumulates at the sampling
works to the extent of Il hundred tons
bids for the lot will be received.
There are now fifty tons of second
grade ore at the dump, which will be
held until special rates are made on
the railroad or with local smcltcrs, and
the information SO far received is that
the L. p. Company will make re-
duction on their rate on ore not carry
ing over fifty ounces in Grand forty
per cent lead, while Il reduction in
rates will be granted the Philadelphia
Works, of Ketchum, owing to the
large lots of bullion shipped out by

the best literary treats that we have
had the pleasure of enjoying for some

were delivered by the scholars in a
very interesting and able manner,

credit on their teacher, and was very
encouraging to the parents of the
little children. Stump speeches were
also made by Prof. G. j. Stavanus
and others, which were very amusing
to all present. Songs by the teacher
and scholars were mingled with the
speeches, dialogues, &C., with great
skill and credit to all. The house was
very handsomely decorated and was
filled to its utmost capacity by the
patrons of the school and people from
all parts of the vicinity of GrantsvilIe.
The best of order was maintained
during the evening. The school was
taught by Mr.. l.. A. Maust who dis

respects, and every one seems we'll
