Judge Hughes opinion in the South

The Judge gives careful review Of the
record, and continuing, says:
There is nothing in the record to
show that the complainant is man of
color, or that those for whom he sues
are colored persons. The bill contains
no allegation that the provisions of law
complained of were devised against the
complainant or those for whom he sues
on account of their race, color, or pre-
vious condition of servitude. There is
nothing in the averments of the bill
from which it may naturally, or must
necessarily be inferred that the COM

sogTH DAKOTA.


From the Deadwood Times.
"A remarkable find was made a
short time ago in one OF the placer
mines of Bear Gulch by Bart Bis
sacca which goes to prove that the
Black Hills were visited and prob
ably prospected in the dim past by
the venturesome pioneers ia search
of gold. This new find was dis
covered ten feet below the bed OF
Bear Gulch creek in the bottom OF
a shaft sunk by Bart, and consists
of a we'll preserved horseshoe with
n portion of the animals hoof, the
latter now being petrifed. The
shoe is encrusted with cement,
which shows free gold, and Is GER
tainly a curiosity. Bart presented
the relic to Jack Fassold, who now
has it on display in the window of
his clubroom on Lee Street. In
digging it up the hoof was broken,
but all the pieces were preserved
and it will be restored to It's natural
shape. This is only one OF the
many similar finds made. Another
we call to mind was the discovery
of the head of hatchet found in
the PLACER claim where the Elk
horn roundhouse now stands, on
lower ~ bitewood, at depth oil
twenty-five feet beneath the sur
face. Another was the finding OF
a Norwegian skate on Charles
Street, in the vicinity of julius
Rebsamen's residence, by a miner
engaged IN prospecting for placer
at depth of several feet Several
old guns and reYolvers have been
dup up, all Of which goes to prove
that the Hills were occupied many
years ago, but who the people were
and when they were there, history
fails to give any clue.

NEVADA.

The Carson River Placer Mining
and Dredging Company certainly
has a most complete plant in oper
alton. Eighteen men are employed
and hundreds of tons of the pulp
are daily being raised from the
bottom of the river and put through
process of reduction. What the
com pany is after Is the tailings
and quicksilver wasted by tho
mills which have been constantly
at work on Comstock ore for nearly
half century. This the company
is doing successfully, and accord
ing to Capt. Davis, of the dredge,
the plant is on a paying basis
The plant is highly interesting,
and no Comstocker interested In
mining and milling should fail to
pay it visit. Capt. DAVIS is very
hoapitable and seems to esteem it a
privilege to explain the workings
of the machinery to visitors. The
plant consists Of large and pow
erful clar-ehell dredger, with u
two-yard bucket, capable of easily
handling from 1900 to 1000 tons
per day OF the river material. The
amount varies with the conditions
of the river bed, and the proper
tions of rock, gravel and sand to
be handled. The dredger is run
by steam and has engines amount
ing to $50 horse power The
second part of the hcating plant
consists Of a barge 40x85 feet. on
which is the machinery for screen
ing the sand from rocks, gravel,
etc. This barge also contains agi-
tators, quicksilver trays, sluices
and rifles for separating amalgam,
quicksilver and gold from the
other material. The third part of
the apparatus consists of the shore
plant, strongly built and double
deck mill supplied with ten Wood
bury concentrators on the lower
deck and eighteen Warren concen.
tratoYs on the upper deck; and
above them, on a third deck, a
distributor for the equal and even
distribution OF the pulp 10 the %
machines. The fourth part of the
plant consists OF the mill for work
ing the splphurets. In converse :
ton with the writer, Capt. Davis
said. "The working of the plant

ARIZONA.

i One of the best known mines in
Arizona is now shut down. The
Yuma Sentinel says: "Ramon
Oehoa returned from Earqua Hala,
recently. He said the Harqua
Hala Bonanza mill shut down and
the mine of the same name is a
thing OF the past. Only one pillar
OF ore remains. Sixty men were
discharged and are now scattered
lin all directions. The taillngs will
be worked by the cyanide process
and will employ few men for
about eighteen months The mine
has been in active operation for
the past six years and has pro-
duced several million dollars dur
ing that time. The shutting down
of the mill was not unexpected, for
1t had been rumored for several
months that the ore was nearly ex-
hausted."

A NEW COUNTRY.

In the summer of 1883 Lieuten
ant Geo. NJ. Stony, U. s. N, was
sent by the general government tc
the Artic Ocean for the purpose ol
rewarding the Tcbukchees, of Alas.
la, for their kindness in feeding
and sheltering the crew of the
steamer Rogers that was burned
10 those waters in 1881. While
distributing the $4,000 worth OF
presents that had been voted by
Congress for that purpose, he heard
of large river in the vicinity that
was unknown to geographers.
Securing a guide and an interpre-
ter, he launched boldly into tha
wilderness and soon reached the
banks of very large river, which
he ascended for fifty miles. He
named the river the Putnam, after
the gallant Putnam who sacrificed
his life in search oil the Jeanette.
In the summer of 1884 and again
in 1885 he returned to the new river
to complete his explorations.
The river, probably over a thous-
and miles long, lies within the
Artic circle. Taking its rise near
the valley of the Mackenzie, on the
British line, it flows in a general
west and southwest direction until
it empties in Hotham Inlet, Kotze-
bue Sound. The delta is composed
of hundreds of channels, one being
a mile wide. The channel over
the Hotham Inlet bar is thirty
feet deep, and for 300 miles the
river is navigable for boats draw-
lug from FIVE to six feet OF water.
Above this point long distance OF
navigation is interrupted by rapids.
Five hundred miles above its
mouth the river passes through
Lake Charloogahlooktah. This
lake is about eight miles long and
three wide. Three hundred miles
above this lake another was re.
ported, with the river extending
hundreds of miles further on.
From the north the river re-
ceives many tributrries from the
south but one large stream, the
Pah. The country around the up
per portions of the river is deEctib.
ed as mountainous In the extreme.
the higher peaks reaching an eleva-
ton of 5000 feet. The banks are
heavily wooded with spruce, larch,
cotton wood, birch and willow.
Roses were seen in large numbers
and wild flowers abounded. Rasp-
berries, blueberries and salmon
berries were abundant. Coal, gold,
silver and jade were fouad.
In 1884 and again in 1885 Lieu
tenant J. C. Cantwell, of the U. s..
revenue steamer Corwin, also made
explorations ascending the river
over 500 miles.

ON THE SAN CARLOS.

From the Globe Silver Belt.
We have information from a
reliable source that all is not well
among the San Carlos Agency
Apaches that a strong feeling Of
resentment has manifested itself,
and a disposition to do bodily
harm to those who undertake to
grade or construct a railroad across
the reserve. 1t is believed chat
United States troops will have to
be called out unless the railroad
company is willing to pay big
damages for a right OF way.
Threats have been openly made,

MONTANA.

The entire plant of the Double
Eagle Mining Company, of Maiden,
was sold at sheriff's sale to satisfy
Judgment of three preferred credi-
tors, aggregatiug about $4,000.
The sale attracted considerable at
tention. from the fact that the fam
GUS Spotted Horse mine, which in
its time has been one of the fancy
gold producers OF Montana, was
chief among the properties to be
knocked off to the highest bidder.
People came from miles around to
witness the sale, but few of them
cared to bid; consequently the
celebrated old Spotted Horse, the
pride of Fergus county, went for a
song-mine and mill bringing
$4,000.

vows are Of almost nightly
occurrence These are among the
inevitable signs of the gathering
storm. Some of the officers and
other attaches of the agency are
inclined to treat the matter lightly
and laugh al any suggestion of an
outbreak.
The fact that Es.kim in zin is
reported as the arch-conspirator in
this agitation against the building
of a railroad across the reservation
is no surprise. He has always
been Il disturbing factor among the
Indians, melting them 10 rebellion
and acts of hostility against The
whites, aud We protested against
his return from Mt Vernon, Ala
hama, where he wns transported
and kept in durance, together with
the Chlricanuas, because Of his
beng mischief maker on the
reservation.
Evidently, the present trouble
did not originate with the Indians,
but they were iucited to oppose
the construction OF the railroad, il
is believed, by white men who
hive been or are now residents OF
San Carlos. The ulterior aim of |
