Delegate Clifford Protests.

Washington, June l9.--Delegate Gif
ford had an interesting interview with
Secretary Lamar to-day in which he
presented certain letters from parties
in Dakota relating to the action OF
Sparks special agents in that section
This has been for several weeks a sub
ject of discussion at the interior depart.
ment. and Mr.. Giford's protest was a
decidedly emphatic one to-day. The
secretary said that he was satisfied that
Mr.. Sparks special agents had been al
together too Jealous in their work, and
had no doubt caused great suffering to
settlers by their action. He intimated
that it was not his fault that Sparks was
where he is, at the head of the general
land Office, and limited further that he
would soon take these land matters into
his own hands. He promised to place
the letters handed him before Mr..
Sparks.

venture and discovery which is one Of
the principal attributes Of the Nestern
miner, a party was made up and soon
returned with a report that the story
was true, culpo.ting the same by ex-
hibiting many . handsome nugget from
the Deadwood gulch. This at once in
augurated a stampede, and in less than
one months time the population was
reduced from the six thousand named

the vicinity of Deadwood being good

turn and prospect the Southern Hills
whenever the mineral III the northern
portion sh0uld have become exhausted.
Rich silver and other minerals having
been discovered in addition to the gold,
extensive mills having been erected for
crushing the quartz, they have found no
reason for vacating the Eldorado TO
which they stampeded, and rs n conse-
quence the mineral district ofwhich Gus
ter is the center has been neglected and
undeveloped. The few inhabitants who
remained were too completely charmed
to vacate the lovely spot, and being
thoroughly aware Of the valuable min
eral lying u~ndeveloped around them
have remained and made a comfortable
living, and in some instances q COM

pan, in the mean time feeble efforts
have been made to erect mills and
utilize the immense deposits of gold
bearing quartz which it is well known
10 exist within almost a stones throw
of the village, but that apathy and lack
of energy which grows upon old time
residents of a bucolic village. together
with a corresponding lack Of means, are
agencies that have conspired against
anything like a vigorous prosecution of
the enterprises, and they have by no
means done the country ~instice. The
past year has brought to light the fact
that Custer is the geographical center

city Of Custer, which lies RESTED amone

history, with which our resident readers
are familiar, bat for the benefit of
others we give the following: This
vicinity was by reason of its delightful
climate, the many ripping streams Of
the purest water, its beautiful scenery,
from the rugged mountain peaks to the
beautiful parks and valleys below, and
as a natural consequence it's abundance
in game Of every description, made it
the Eden of the Black Hills for the In

some prospector charmed with the SPOT
and iured to remain because of the
results To be obtained from comparativ-
ely little effort with pick and pan can
testify TO the risk he ran in trying To
compete with the noble red for Quiet
possession. AS soon however as it be-
came generally known that the govern.
ment was about to raise the embargo
which had heretofore been placed upon
the settlement Of the Black Hills, this
spot rapidly filled with hardy miners
who had heard of its many advantages
and sourc as a mining country, and
the winter of 1876 found q town CON

commodated some six thousand inba.

The Conlederate Seal.

Recently some one has spoken ofthe
Confederate seal and its mysterious
disappearance during the war a
writer from Abbeville, S. c., says:
1t may be mystery to the world
atlarge. but it is no mystery in this
town. As / recently wrote, here was
held the last meeting of Jefferson
Davis Cabinet. The Confederate
chief and two or three members--one
Of whom was judah +. Beujamin, bat
the Dames Of the others tradition does
not give-arrived here on q windy
March afternoon of 1865.
No one living, except Mr.. Davis or
Mr.. Benjamin, can tell exactly what
was done at that last secret meeting.
/ can only give the tradition which
exists in the town. 1t is said that
they looked over the papers they he'd
with them, and destroyed the moet
important, especially those Of cop-
promising character. Next morning tie
open fireplace, where, as usual IN The
South wood fuel was used, was fouifd
full of white ashes, such as burpt
paper makes. The problem Of destroy
ing the seal remained They could
not at that late hour hire blacksmith
to demolish it. Besides, the act would
attract attention, which they wished
to avoid and time was pressing.
They consulted DIR. Burt. He told
them that there was an old well 10 his
yard, and that II bad been given Up
