AN IMPRESSION OF CHEYENNE.

Editor NJ. W. Pettigrew, Of the Sun
dance Gazette, who. during his recent
visit, successfully urged the movement for
4 county organization in Cook, was greatly
pleased with Cheyenne as the appended
extract from an article published in the
last issue Of his paper will indicate:
On Thursday evening, the 9th inst, in
company with Joe Doze, we headed for
Cheyenne, the county seat Of our county
and the capital Of our Territory. The
distance is about three hundred miles, and
it takes a good team to stay the distance
ia six days. The weather was warm and
pleasant and we arrived in good shape on
the evening of the 18th, and as our bust
ness there was with the Executive Depart
ment, We lost no time in calling on u
old friend Governor Hale.
Cheyenne is a model Of Western enter
prise, and is certainly entitled to her
name, Queen City Of the Plains All
have n pride in her as the capital city Of
the Territory. and as the chief among
Western commercial centers. Probably
no town in the West has as many fine
residences. guaged by the population. as
Cheyenne. Scores Of them were pointed
cut to US that involved an outlay of from
ten to twenty thousand dollars each.
This is one of the distinctive features Of
Cheyenne, while at the same time many
of the business houses are on a prineey
scale. A tenderfoot agriculturist might
well wonder at the evidence Of wealth
here laid before him with not a furrow OF
the virgin soil turned. If any gardening
il ever done it must be on a small scale
and in some isolated locality. 1t is all
stock raising from one corner of the Terri
tory to the other, and the happiness and
prosperity Of the people indicate that
this is the surest road to financial success
Of all.

In one's intercourse with the world, he can
not fail TO feel that the absence of an intel
lectual expression often mars the beauty,
and renders unattractive those who may
have naturally we'll formed faces and sym
metrical figures. Books, 1t is true, OF them
selves are not obtrusive. To be had and en-
joyed, they must be sought and read, and IL
the seeking and selection be judicious and
the reading systematic, the result will be
beneficial, viii inspire generous and tender
sentiments, strengthen and improve the
mind, giving TO the countenance a pleasing
and charming expression and a beauty as
attractive as it is unfading.
"The lady who is judiciously conversant
with books will find" says a well-known
writer, -her countenance improving as her
mind improves and her looks ennobled as her
heart is elevated, and they who select and
read pure and elevating books can rest as
surOd hat their friendship will become more
interesting and their Attractiveness greatly
increased" Physical beauty, so desirable
and 30 often and generally sought to be i'm
proved by paints, cosmetics and other nos
trums, Is and ever must DO inferior to mem
tai; but, when the two are combined In q
lady Of sense, they render her conversation
exceedingly interesting and her personal
charms captivating, II not, indeed, irrosist-
ible.

Punch said, ut the time u the exhibition
OF 81. that Spier & Ponds young ladies all
married French dukes or marshnls, and, like
many Of Punch's wittest jokes, there was
truth at the bottom Of il The fact is, visa
Wis the relation OF the sexes, man requires
fxing-his attention must be arrested; a
woman requires to DO seen-she must have a
chance. Women are quite alive to this In
this overcrowded nge hundreds OF pretty girls
never get their chance, and they often end
in throwing themselves away in morn ways

In the marriage lottery; but girls can not hit
upon n market Find one OF them, and their
own charm may DO trusted for the rest But
how man bloom almost unseen. and waste
their fragrance, etc.i They may live in n
small way, see 10 company, DO closely

and pine year after year: but no one comes
along. and they can not hunt for themselves.
Some modified form Of tho old B~abylonlan
marriage market Is much needed nowadays
l do not sec why every town should not have
its beauty show Of respectable girls OF all
classes, as every village used 20 have Its May
