In a letter to an eastern paper a Mon

northern Montana are, as a class, un-
m~istakably superior in size and quality
to any range cattle in the whole west.
They are hardy, clean, free from any
hereditary disease, and the conditions
are such that they will acquire no faint

pite the losses among the latter class OF
stock last winter, herds of them are
still brought in, especially along the
Yellowstone. If proper restrictions are

bers Of the cowboy thief purifiers, and
as nothing has been heard of the prison
ers since (they were removed from the

have administered the usual medicine.
With regard to the extent OF the acct
dent to the Helena, Capt. Hathaway is

ed that the boat was sunk, but OF this
there is no positive information.
Since writing the above we have been
informed by Commodore Power that no
damage at all resulted to the boat. The

order and it was deemed advisable to
return to Bismarck, where the boat now
is.-Independent.

he had with a band of sheep, which
may be interesting to parties who con-
template diving sheep in the direction

CAL, 5000 head of French merinos. He
got along all right until he reached a
point near Pleasant valley divide, in

commenced. For q stretch of eight
miles in that neighborhood there grows
a species Of foxglove and wild parsnips,
which are rank poison for sheep. He
drove about 200 of them ahead a mile or
