Frank LesIiess Widow.

New YORK, March 15.--The announce
ment was made in society circles to-day
that Mrs. Frank Leslie, widow of the en-
inent publisher, is to marry the MARQUIS
DE Lenyille. 1t is understood that Ms.
Leslie first met the Marquis nearly three
years ago, when he made formal tender
Of his hand, after a brief acquaintance.
But she was then devoting herself to the
work of extricating her property from
its embarrassment, and vindicating the
financial credit and business good name of
her late husband, and it was not until re-
Gently that she accomplished the task she
had undertaken, and permitted herself to
seriously entertain the proposal made to
her. 1t is probable that the marriage will
take place at an early day, but nothing is
yet definitely known on this point. It is
certain, however, that Mrs. Leslie will
continue to reside in New work, giving
her personal supervision to the large and
business with which she has
been SO long and successfully identified.

Mondays passenger train, with double
header engines, was composed of ten cars
so crowded that many had to stand. A
considerable portion were Cnur d'Aleners,
but many were the regulation emigrants
and business travellers. The season for
tide of emigration setting for the West has
come again, and instead of its verge splash
ing up against the eastern base of the
Rocky mountains, as last year, it is now
sweeping over them in deluge toward
Washington and Oregon. The Northern
Pacific is carrying enormous numbers Of
people directly through to the farming
regions, and already Dakota is complain
ing. The reduced passenger rates for west
ern points is carrying the bulk of farming
emigrants past and through Dakota to the
western slope Of the Rockies. This west
ward wave Of humanity is history, present
fact and destiny.-Ne1r North Vest.

Politics Caused the RumpuS.

PETERSBURG, Va, March 17.--A person.
al encounter took place to-day at the Gus
tom House between r. A. Young, a
prominent coalition Republican and the
Deputy United Collector here, and c. B.
Raine. Young was struck on the head
and badly injured. During the fracas
Young attempted to shoot but was pre-.
vented by bystanders. A few days ago
Raine published a card in reference to Col.
J. d. Brady, Chairman Of the States Re-
publican Executive Committee, accusing
Brady of taking what funds the Repub-
licans had during the last presidential
election and opening Hancock and En-
glish headquarters here. This Informal
tion Raine claimed to have gotten from
Young. Young denounced Raine as liar.
This led to the difficulty. Raine was taken
before magistrate and admitted to bail.

The Livingston Enterprise Of March 18th
contains the following: Sowl & Batchel-
der have made rich strike in their placer
ground in Emigrant Gulch. Some time
ago they left the drift upon which they
had been working with only fair pay for
some time past, and sank a shaft to bed
rock on another part Of the ground. The
result has been gratifying, for they have
obtained gravel that prospected as high as
one dollar to the pan. 1t is believed that
they have again come upon the rich pay
streak which was lost on their ground over
two years ago. Previous to that time they
took out as high as 5000 to the set of tim
bers (three feet of the drifD and this new
strike promises to pay as we'll or better.

The Canadian government has modified
its mining laws as applied to locations in
the Northwest Territory The change il
very important to those seeking invest
ment in the newly discovered loads in
Kicking Horse Pass. The principal fea-
lures of the change are as follows: IL
quartz diggings forty acres are allowed
to claim in place of twenty acres as here
tofore. The price has also been reduced
from twenty dollars to five dollars. An
other important matter is that while un-
der the old laws a miner was only per-
mitted to take up one claim in a district.
now he is allowed to secure as many
claims as he wishes, provided there is not
more than one on each lead. While this
change in the mining laws is of the greatest
benefit, it is believed that they will be still
further modified as occasion discovers the
necessity or justice of such action. In new
country, where. the chief objecti is to encour-
age emigration, the most liberal land and
mining laws should be provide.
