the BATTLE OF JACKSON cxEEx.

An authentic account of the battle of
Jackson creek is published in the SILVER
STATE to-day. and will recall to the minds
of settlers some of the scenes of early
dsys in Humboldt. t. ]. Butler, by
whom the article was penned. resided in
Idaho for several years and subsequently
edited newspaper in Elke county. He
is now President Of the Bank of Prescott,
Arizona Territory. The Jackson Creek,
to which he refers is situated on the
Idaho road, while the fight in which the
Indian Chief, Cap Son, was engaged, was
fought near the Jackson Creek mountains
about City miles west Of Winnemucca in

CROOKS PROJECTION.

The promotion by the President of
General George Crook, to gil the vacant
Major Gensralship caused by the retire
nent of General Terry, has caused great
rejoicing in Arizona. At Prescott flags
were flung to the breeze on all the public
Buildings, bonfres lighted all parts of
the town and blazed upon the surrounding
hills, and salute of thirty-eight guns
was fired.
General Crook acquired the reputation
ON this Coast of being one of the best
Indian fighters in the army. He distin-
euished himself years ago in his campaign
against the Indians in Southern Oregon,
and subsequently, when in command Of
the Department of the Platte, in bring.
ing the powerful tribes Of the Plains to
terms. He commanded the troops in
Arizona against the Apaches. and followed
NJ hostilss into Mexico aad brought them
saptives to San Carlos from the Businesses
Of the Sierra Madre.
The wish is expressed by many that he
will be placed 10 command of the Military
Division Of the Pacific, position for
which he is eminently qualified, as he
knows the country from British Columbia
- Mexico, and is thoroughly familiar
With the Indian character, and where it
ID necessary to maintain military posts
for the protection OF settlers.

wOoDBURN IN WASHINGTON.

Recent dispatches from Washington
refute the assertion that Congressman
WOODBURY., of this State, had become dis
gusted with life at the Capitol and had
left it for more congenial society.
Though the proceedings of Congress, as
Published in the Record, gave color OF
truth to the report, it seems, neverthe.
less to have been unfounded, as it is now
stated az an absolute nndeniable fact that
Mr.. WOODBURY., in proper person, APP
peared last Friday night before the House
Appropriations Committee to say word
for the Carson Mint. The dispatches re-
port that Mr.. WOODBURY. opposed the
wish of Director Kimball to reduce the
mint to IN assay Office. but that must be
mistake as the Carson mint has been
nothing more nor less than an assay Office
for years. However that may be it is
comforting to Nevadans to know that
MIR. Woodburn is in Washington. 1t is
true he does not, so far as the Congress-
sonal Record shows, honor the House of
Representatives very often with his pres.
: ence, but as convention is to be held
shortly for the purpose, among other
things, Of nominating Congressman, he
may figure more conspicuously in the
House and before committees henceforth,
at least, until after the convention. The
fact that Mr.. WOODBURY. has appeared
before committee and said something
about the Carson mint ought to be sufi-
sient to insure his denomination for Con-
gresham, and permission to print
speech" in the Record after the conven-
Sion will secure his election.
Nevada docs not seem to expect much
- Mr.. WOODBURY. as . Representative,
and in his six years in the House of Rep
-sesentatives he has never surprised his
constituents by exceeding their expecta-
-1icns.
