same. The returns of the Western Union

Nowhere in the West, or in the East,
will be found a greater number of private
carriages and buggies, according to the
population, than in Cheyenne. The su-
perior style and finish of these vehicles is
a surprise to strangers who are ignorant Of
the fact that this city has one Of the most
extensive carriage manufactures in the
country. The Cheyenne Carriage works,
corner Eighteenth and O'Neil streets,
have, under the superintendency Of VIM.
Richardson, attained an enviable reputa
ton for strictly first class work. far superior
to any that is turned out elsewhere. And it
is well to remark right here that it is
necessary to have an extra grade of work
manship on all vehicles to be used
in this altitude. because of the dry
ness OF the atmosphere and the con
sequent liability of the woodwork to shrink
and spoil. Our people have tried Eastern
work and they have learned from bitter
experience that it doesn't pay. There
fore they buy the best grade of carriages
manufactured right here, which are sold
with a guarantee of the manufacturers.
Superintendent Richardson. of the
Cheyenne Carriage works, uses nothing
but the best material of all kinds in the
manufacture Of his vehicles, the best sea
soned wood, the finest leather and steel
and the best Of imported cloths. The
company has recently largely reduced the
prices OF all wagons and carriages now on
hand, and now is tho time to purchase
frst-class vehicles ut low prices. There
are on exhibition and for sale in the store.
rooms OF the factory top b~uggies, phae.
tons, Surveys, carts, ranch busgies, road
wagons, the Whitney buck boards, two
seat Concord wagons, etc, all of which are
offered at reduced prices.

Our Lander Letter.

Special Correspondence Of THE LEADER.
LANDER, Wyo., Aug. THE valleys
of the Papoagie are booked for a magnif-
cent agricultural yield this season. The
hay crop, now in process of cutting has
never been surpassed in the valleys. A
great deal Of tame hay was sowed last fall
on the natural meadows. and the admir-
ture with the wild grasses has resulted in
an enormous yell. In conversation yes
terday with a ranchman the correspon
dent was informed that from three acres
of mingled red top and wild hay he had
just cut seven tons.
A largely increased acreage of oats was
planted this spring and the yield will be
very heavy. The scribe rode through a
field the other day which will yield fifty
bushels to the acre. This is sod land. In
some localities the oat harvest will be a
little late.
Potatoes have also been very largely
planted and the general yield will be
heavy, though in a few localities the
farmers complain of injuries done by ex-
cessive wet weather.
The wheat crop is the largest ever
planted and will@fve large returns. while
vegetables of all kinds are most abund
ant.
A great deal of assessment work is be-
ing done'in the Shoshone oil basin. while
rumor talks loudly of oil and gold dis
c~overies in the mountains between the
forks of Snake river.

The Buffalo Echo says: On Sunday
last orders were received at Fort McKiu-
ney for the removal of B and Il companies
OF the 9th cavalry to Utah. The sum
mons was sudden and hence startling, for
the rumor of two months ago that two
companies were to be removed, seemed
without foundation, and the colored troops
had settled down to the pleasant expect
ancy Of passing another winter in John
sou county. On Wednesday evening the
boys in blue, officers and men, numbering
seventy-two, filed through the city on
their handsome horses. southward bound.
Maj. Benteen was in command, with
Capt. B Dawson. Of b company.
and Capt Olmstead of + com
pany, and Lieuts. Burnett and Ladd.
The objective point is not clearly stated.
but it lies somewhere in Utah, where a
cantonment is to be occupied by them.
and a six company post is to be eventually
established. The first camp was male on
Carwile's ditch south of town, and Thurs.
day morning found the ranks thinned to
the number Of about sixteen, The boys
hated TO leave Mckinney and Buffalo,
and a wholesale desertion was the result.
A few were captured at Fort Mckinney.
The Rawlins Journal learns that orders
have been received at Fort Steele for the
abandonment o. the post. The troops are
ordered to proceed to Fort Bridger, fr,m
which point they will go to Southern
Utah. Forts Lincoln and Ellis have also
beer abandoned.

The assessment on horses is $500, 900

The decrease in the number of cattle is
