Mrs. Chris. J. Johnston, in trans
hitting the poem entitled my Idaho, y
which was published in Wednesdays
TINES. writes to . friend in this city
. letter from which we are permitted
to make the following extract:
have been east for some weeks,
and find that l will DO delayed still
longer here. As it has been raining
nearly every day since l left Idaho,
to say that l am homesick but family
expresses my desire to be home, and
my feelings have found a mild outlet
in rhyme. As have never before
troubled the types with any Of tho
phantoms of my brain, my friends
here put it in the light Of = duty to
our bright young State, etc, ETC., etc.
| shall spare you what they say, but
it may mean that the literary curiosi.
ties of our early aborigines should be
put where they can be collected by
the antiquaries of the future. OF that,
our editors are the best judges.
But a happier thought has come to
me. Perhaps the many kind friends
whose sympathy did so much to carry
me through the agonies of my sorrow,
may be pleased to see that my sky is
clearing, and the storm tossed waves
are subsiding into a rythmical swell.
For nothing but Gods love, and all it
means, is everlasting.
The readers Of the TIMES will be
pleased to learn that the lady is partly
recovered from the heavy blow sus.
tanned by her great sorrow; and are
looking forward to her return with
some anxiety.

"Mcthinks He Doth Protest Too Much.

Isidor Morris, Manager OF the Big
Camas group of mines, averred him
self displeased by the publication OF
the report OF strike in his property,
because, he says, sit din. amount to
much. Only s,ringer or two OF
quartz was cut AS l have had no as
says | don't know what it is worth
or If it is worth anything.'
Yet to Gay, he was heard inviting
Major Wilkes to "come to the mire
and see what we've got. l don't 90
much on the Gold Belt, outcome
and see for yourself"
AS Mr.. Morris is truthful man no
one doubts his word. And yet, in
the words Of the poet
Methinks he doth protest too much.

MS happy description OF the People
Of Utah.
Senator John P. Jones was given a
grand ovation on his return home to
Virginia City, Nevada, last week.
The reception was strictly non par
t'san, quite as many prominent Dem-
ocrats as Republicans constituting the
reception committee OF 200.
There was a torchlight procession
three miles in length, fireworks, guns,
cannon, steam whistles from 20 or 80
huge mine hosting works, brass bands,
crack militia companies, and the many
other features which can only be seen
to perfection on the old Comstock
lode. For the first time in his life the
Senator found himself unable to ade-
quate!y express his feelings. at the
outset. But he soon found thought
and voice to say that he was so proud
of this hearty reception that he did
not wish to live to see a more accept
able one. He also managed, in refer.
ring to the presentation OF 4 cane
from the miners of Utah for his efforts
in behalf OF silver, to pay our neigh
bors the handsome compliment of
saying that it is a region "where
every Democrat is q Republican,
every Republican is Democrat, and
every Jew is . GENTLE"
