From headquarters of the
Highland Phoebe Mines and
Smelling company, we learn that

or oue-sizth Of the soldiers wo i'd Lot leave lbs colors every year"
 General Greedy. who WAS in Ssagway che other day, recently made 8 report in which he says that according to his view of the matter, and he ought to know-he has maie the army bis life vork-small pay and the abolition of the army canteen are chiefly responsible for the unsatisfactory con- d.tion that prevails in the ranks today.
 Not only Is the concensus Of opinion among military men, including post ohsplains, iu favor of the canJeeu, but the civilians of post towns snd vicinjties favor it's restoration as a matter of pub lie peace and safety since of aU e'e- meuls of menace to a commuoity 8 and debauched soldier is the most dreadful, " says the OregoDian. It is of course and properly so, from the standpoint of the benefit that the army will derive Lhereirom that General Greedy and other military men recom- mend restoration Of the Canteen. There are, however, other considerations both of an individual and public nature that as strongly urge it's restoration. It is unconcelvable, thzreGoCe, that Congress will long defer favorable action upon this recommendation.

 Mir. Atwood says that throughout the districts visited great showings Of coal were iourd. He is unable to estimate the extent of the deposits. News of a great d,aI more coal along streams and rivers not visited by the government party were given Mir. Atkin and MT. Eakin by prospectors.
 Mr.. Atwood and Mr. Eskin left Seat ue on May I3 and spent the rest Of the month in Southeastern Alaska examin- iug the coal deposits and formations. At Juneau they chartered 8 launch and visited KupraenoG island, the vicinity oi Rake, Hamilton bay and Murder cove.
