T., Ccsrer Panx, Fed. 2— Faurxp Wickes: I told you in Sioux City some time ago that I would be in the Black Hills this winter, if possible. Well, I have kept my word— for further particulars sea Sioux City Times. I ‘am preparing a letter for publication tbat I will aves chance to send out in a few days by Cheyenne, I willsay to you candidly the country is all and much better than Custer represented. Gold sn silver, iron and plambago abonnd. I Dave some as good ore and blossom quartz a8 1 pave ever seen. We have sent out some gold to exhibit in Sioux City. We traveled about 700 sailes, coming here by the Elkhorn and Mobrara yonte; seventy-eight days on the trip; had the wegon-master beon less afraid of Iodians and soldiers we could bave come a much shorter route, but the country we passed over, with very few exceptions, was as fertile and a8 well wood- ed and watered as a farmer cr railway corpora- tion could wien, especially berween White River acd Cheyenne (marked on the map “pad lands”), was 88 fine @ coun- try ass man could wish, snd from the Cheyenne to the foot hills on the stream we camae up (Dear Creek, I think) the land needs no eulogy from me. The world cannot beat it. Of the mountains Caster drew but faint picture. He srdiy done it justice. My horses were poor when J arrived here, the 234 December, now they are fat on the excellent mountain grase, and during that time we had two weeks of very cold weather, ‘ith snow sbout 6 inches deep on an average. But our cattle sre looking excellent, sud we worked them all the time building our fort. The Initer is 100 feet square. Our cabins are built joside of the fort, on three sides of the square, ani a large gate opening into the plaza, Port- poles all round. It is about 2 miles below where I enticipate locating our town-site. We are twenty-two men and one Iady and her boy, all told; some have provisions to last till May, but the majority havenot. What we want instanter are provisions, hydraulic hose-nozzles, picks, shovels, sluice-forks, and a general miner's paraphapalia. To get thia here, I want you to use your influence and doyxour utmost. You bare ny pledged word that the conp:ry is rich fo gold and silver. They are making 3 ounces per day to the man, 10 yards from the stockade, with an apology forarocker. So youcso judge what it would do with sluices. In the spring, if we are let iene, we will astonish the incredulous world sbout the richness cf the Black Hills. ‘And now, Mr. Wicker, whether the route will be by Brule or Fort Sully, what is done must be done quickly. I would not advise sny ous to come our ronte direct from Sioux City. , Still, there could be a great deal cut off, and we had excellent wood end grass all the way, but we travelled all of 700 miles. I think to atarta -train from Brale would be the most advisa- le, and Isy out aroute, Yourown good judg- ment will sce the ecessity of this. ‘Wo want provisions, tools, blacksmiths, etc. ‘We will pay for them in gold. We must have them by the ist of May or abandon the country, and possibly lore our scalps. Help us if you can, The route to Cheyenne or Laramie City from here, I think, is much nearer than any other, but, knowing nothing of it, could not reo- ommend it to emigration. Write mo the first emigration that starts. Uee this for publication # you wish. Vexy truly yours, ‘T. H. Ressern. Boorzann, D.T., March 1.—Dean Caney: I depend upon you more than I do upon stock- holders and public opinion and the voice of great railroad meetings to define the route to the great “El Dorado” of the West—the Black Hills. Allis ahve now. All I have said and ‘written in the face of great men, eight yea ago, dawns out like truth now. hon J sit here inmy own comfortable home, I can enjoy the progress of the eruption of enterpise and wealth more than those who have for years contradicted it, and ssid “Old Campbell is is visionary.” You even thought so when last I saw you. When 1 said that your railroad should be protected, was itnut? If I had hare been there an its defender, on the floor, 1 could not have done as well. Dictating well-written srti- cles to sensible men is better than claiming to be gn oracle, Now Charley, your only routs, as you know, is Brule City, up the White Earth, or old Fort Pier, up the Cheyenne. Both routes’ will be opened. Make your rosd where it touches the Mis- Souri River as far north as you can gm good ground, running west to or near some point north of Brule City. Yousee by this, our road will do for the James River Valley and the Upper Missouri. I have a daily tne of stages from Yankton to Fire Steel, which will be part of your route, and I am now run- ning stages from the Winona & Bt. Peter Boad to Fort Thompson, and have tbis Foute for three years after the let of July bext, Whenever you define your roate Tbave and can move stock upon it to puts stage in operation, and ain able to pay premiom the first passenger. Be sssured thatI am ow and will always co-operate with you, and Will bring before the public fiftrold froutieramen who will swear that there is no feasible route to the Black Bills except by the White Earth or the Cheyenne. (North of the White Earth and sonth ofthe Cheyenne.) Let me hear from you. I £0 to-morrow to Yankton to make s move. Yours ly, ©. T. Cawpnen.. CHEYENNE TO THE BLACK HILLS. Cheyenne (Wyomina) Leader. As the forthcoming official report of Gen. Cua- fer will esisblish the fact that the Black Hills fountry is rich with precious miverals, we deem Kour daty to point out to those who intend to goto these new mines the safest, abortest, and ‘ost practical way of getting there. Cheyenne is barely 220 miles from the Black ‘Hills via Fort Laramie and the Red Cloud Agen- 7; itis not more than 200 miles, going direct from here to Red Cloud. At this agency there ina large military post affording protection to this frontier, and from Red Cloud co the Black ‘ills it is only 50 miles. ‘The road from here to Bed Cloud, either by Fort Laramie or the old Bed Cloud Agency on the Running Water, or Ni~ sbrara Biver, is settled good part of the way by ranches and stock men, 80 that supplies. aid, Gnd protection can be had on this line to within 50 miles of the mines. ‘Those who wish to go to the Black Hille can findno other ronte 80 desirable, in every re- spect, a8 this, Those living East, Sout, and West especially, will ind it shorter, safer, and ‘Detter than any qther route. It is shorter for hoes living farther North, towards St. Paul, Shan the route vis Bismarck. People from the States who go by St. Paul to Bismarck will find that, after they have made the mmene® Getour of travel required to reach Biamarck, Ueir serious troubles are jast to begin. From the Intter place to the eastern of the Black Hills, it is at least 300 milea, through what is known as the ‘ Ter- fea Manvis,” or bad Jands of Dakota; utterly n except by the most savage tribes of Indian, and completely unprotected the entire distance, From Yankton, tho roate, all wagon travel, is fully 550 iijes. nearly the whole dis- tence through « hostile country, sifording rotection. either supplies nor Bismarck is iles northeast of Cheyenne, and peti pants going to the Black Hil vie that place are liable to encounter the severe storms make that latitude so undesirable in the fall and winter months. From Cheyenne to the Black Hills it is only tection. 8? exsy travel om this oily will take the miner to his place of destination. From Stoux City it will require nearly a month of hard travel, and from Bis- marck almost as lone, to say nothing of the dan- Ber from hostile Indians the whole Aistance. Our readers have only to refer to any War or Interior Departmont map to be satisfied as to the truth of the statements here madp as to dis- tances, and as to this being the nearest point to the Black Hills,—a point made easily accessible from all duections by the Union and Kansas Pa- Citic Railways. Cheyenne has facilities for outfitting miners and emigrants superior to ay other place along the Union Pacific Railroad, {t is from this place that all the supplies are shipped for the troops at Fort Laramie, Red Cloud, and Spotted Tail, and large trains for these posts are constantiy moving over the rcad. Regular weekly mails leave this city for Fort Laramie, Red Cioud. aod Bpo:ted Tail, bringing poetsl facilities to tho very door of the reported gold region. Alto- getlisr, there is no other route proposed that can to compare With the route from Cheyenne, so for as safety is con- corned. The route up the Missoun River to Brule City or Fort Randall, as recom- mended e Sioux City papers, is one fall of delays sod wocercauottes. “Within a mooth’stime the country between these points And the Black Hills is Hable to be covered with snow from 1 to 12feetin depth. . . . ‘The route trom this city ia open the yaar round, with the best of roads, plenty of wood, wator. arg} rrass, and one other great considera- tion whi 10 other route can offer—a line pro- tected byi Litary posta almost to the base of the Black Hills, From whatever direction the tide of emigra- tian may seek the new El Dorado, the road to {be south, to Cherenve, is bouud to be the liue of communication with the outside world. It is near two railroads, open at all seasons, and with mail facilities alroady ex- tending to Within 60 miles of tho mines—200 uallas nearer than avy other postal commun:ca- ion. “The route via Dismarek is bardly worth con- sidering ; itis impracticable, except for large patties ; itis excecdingly dangerous, mach long- er, and more difficult in every respect, No one would, in bis proper souses, thick of undertak-~ ing to go in that direction, when @ shorter, safer, aud better lice is opentohim. The rosd from here to Red Cloud (60 miles from the mines), ie safe for everybody, no matter how small the party. {tis traveled constantly tha year’ und by mail-carriers, army officers, and ut nee freight trains. Arrived at Red Ck fis miner is near his objective point. Tu. fohest discoverios made by Gen.“ Quater were «m the southwest and side of tho Black Hills, The principal discoveries of gold were on the southwestern slope, in Wyoming Terri- tory. ness the table mountein called Znvan Kara. People spproaching from the east side may find precious minerals on that side of the Hilla, but itis for more likely that they will bave to pass around or through the mountains to the points indicated by Gen. Guster before they are rewarded for their Isbors. ‘The above statement we are ready to sab- stantiate by official reports of military officers swho have been stationed in Wyoming and Vako~ tafor years, rnd by the testimony of our old settiers, traders, and hunters, who have spent a lifetime in this section of the country. —-— THE BRULE CITY ROUTE. Stouz City Journal. The rogion kuown as the Diack Hills is situated in Western Datota, with their western slope stretching into Wyoming Territory, their south- ern extremity extending within 50 miles of the northwest comer of Nebraaks, and their north- em limits touching on Montaua Torsitory. While within the Black Hills proper there is 8 vast extent of very rich grazing and agricultural lands, abundance of timber and of water, to ap- proach them from anywhere in the Eastern States the traveler must pass through a strip of country varying = in width, and generally destitute of water and vegetation. Taking Harney’s Veak, near which the richest gold discoveries were made by Cus- ter’s miners, as our objective point, and measur- ing tne distance as ehown by the Government mapa, we are enabled to fornish the following table of distances from important frontier pomts: From Blemarck to Harney’s Peak... From North Platte, Neb., to Harney’ From Fort Pierre, Dakota, to Haruey’s Pes From Cheyenne, Wyoming, to Harnes’s Peak. From Fort Randall, Dakota, to Harnoy’s Pesk. From Brule city, Dakota, to Harney’s Peak s Of the nix etarting points above named, the route vis Brule City, Dak. is the best and is really the only feasible one. Say, for example, ‘a Chicago msn desires to goto the Black Hulls. He must travel by rome one of three railroad routes, mth distances respectively aa follows: [Alites.| Pare, 2,000($40.85 ofer anything Chicago to Bismarck, Dakota, Chicago to Cheyenne, Wyo: 1,100} 48.50 Chicago to Yankton, Dakota. "850! 19.65 ‘A difference of $20 or §25 in railroad fare will bea weighty consideration with s man of small ‘means going into s new country, and, of course, he eelects the Sioux City and Yackton route. Be- side there are other reasons, still stronger, why he ought to, nay, why he must, come this way. Going into the mines he requires an outtit. He toust hsve tools, provisions, bed-clothing, a stove, tent. etc., and neither at Bismarck nor Uneyenne can this outfit be procured, while at either Sioux City or Yankton RK man can, at all times, purchase any article of mexchandise to be found in the Chicsgo market. There is another and still stronger reason why the Sioux City and Yank- ton ronte is the best—in fact, the only feasible way for tho immigrant to enter the Black Hills, On the route all the way there is an abundance of timber, water, and grazing, while, to approach the Hills from any other direction, either from Laramie on the south or Bismarck on the north, the traveler must pass over the timberless and waterless plains of Wyoming, or over the dresd- ed mauvaises terres, or bad lands, of Dakota. From Chicago to Sioux City is only 509 miles. From Sioux City tho traveler takes the Dakota Southern Railroad to Yankton, 60 miles; from Yankton to Brule City, 125 miles, he travels by steamboat up the Missouri, ats cost of $2; and from Brule City to Haroey’s Peak, 192 miles, bis route lies along the level geassy valley of White Earth River. Summing up the foregoing considerations. those intendiog to visit the Black Hills mast inevitably bo lod to the conclusion that the beat, cheapest, most ex- editiozs, and the only feasible route to the Black ‘Hills is via Sioux City, over the Dakota Southera Railroad to Yankton, and Brule City, Datots, up White Earth Biver to Harnoy's eak. Fram Sioux City to the Black Hills the travel- ing accommodation is fally equal to anything furnished in the East, The trains of the Dakota Southern Railroad are supplied with all modern railway improvements, Wi its coaches sre models of elegance, comfort, and cleavli- ness. Thesteambost and wagon travel from Yankton will, we doubt not, be enjoyed by alt jovers of the beautiful in’ nature, and even by the dullest and most prosaic travelers. The Upper Missouri River scenery bas just acquired continental fame. From Yankton westward, the fast snd elegant steamers ran.up the Missouri River throug a country of the most picturesque, varied, and romantic scenerr, through woods, bills, and plaing, where the face of nature is tortured into fsntastio shapes, as if to invite the admiration of the sight-seer. ‘ ‘From Fort Randall, on the Missouri River, Pratt & Ferris, pozt-tradere, run a line of wagon- trains to Whetstone Agency, within 50 miles of the Black Hills; and to travelers who bave no teams of their own, this mode of conveyance is tho safest, most expeditions, and best. MINING PARTIES LEAVE YANKTON. Yanrron, D. T., March 6.—An enthasisatio meeting was held this evening to perfect ar- rangements for the transportation of men to the Black Hills, One eompany is al- ready formed, that will start = train ‘April 15, and others are projected. The boats ‘of the Missouri River Transportation Company will ran at regular intervals to accommodate those wishing to go further uptheriver.

F. Ayer, President of the Association. The minutes of the previous meeting having been read by H. W. Jackson, Secretary of tho Association, and approved, the Board ‘of Man- agers reported in favor of removing toa ballin the second floor of the Young Men’s Obristian Asssociation, which could be obtained at a rental of $1,200 per annum, = - In presenting the report,,Mr. Tuley explained that, if the Association took a five years’ lease of the premises, certain alterations would be made. On motion, it was decided to rent the rooms for s term of fivo years. ‘Messra, Arthur J. Oaton, L. W. Pence, Charles ¥. Butler, and Bicbard Waterman were elected members of the Association. The Treasurer re- ported, showing a balanco of cash at credit of the Association of $1,039.67. 2 SUPREME COURT REPORTS. ‘Mr. Pence offerod a resolution complaining of the delay of the publication of opinions of the Supreme Court of this State, and asking that that Court be respectfully reqnested to take the prievance into consideration, seek out the canse, and spply an adequate remedy in tho premises. In presenciag the resolution, Mr. Pence stated that ia New York State the opinions are publish- ed in from three to four months after their de- livery, while in Illinois it took threo years, Be thought this was an imposition, and the right place to go was direct to the Court itself. ‘Mr. J. Lyle King sad that the reports made by air. Freeman were not only long in coming out, but when they did appear they were so poor- ly gotten up that no lawyer could read them without swearing. For his part, he was as Christianlike a man as any in tho profession, but he ncknowledged that he had frequently waxed profane over Sir. Freeman's work He thought it was time that a resolution such as that offered should be adopted by the Association. ‘Judge Bradwoll asked it it would not be well for the Association to address a communication to Mr. Freeman on the subject. Mr. Freeman intended to bring ont a yolame in the future every two months, which he thought was as often as lawyers would coma to pay for then, - After a debate, in which Mr. Froeman was handied without gloves, the resolution was, on motion, adopted. ieee ‘Mr. Black called for the consideration of the special order of the mesting, which was tho question of agreeing with the Judiciary Commit- fee in the report they had presented at o previ- ous mecting on the subject of certain CUANGES IN THE ILLINOIS SYSTEM OF PRACTICE. The following is the report referred to: ‘The Committes on Judiciary, to whom was referred the resolution declaring it to te the duty of the Gen- eral Assembly, at it present session, to enact a system of practice abolishing forms of actions at law, and the distinctions between actions at Iaw and proceedings in equity, reapoctfully report that they have considered said resolution, and unite in the folowing report : First—That the Committeo is divided as to the wis- dom of the proposed legislation. Second—That it is united in the opinion that no legislation upon this subject should be had at the pres- ent session of the General Assembly. ‘Phird—It sn aso united in the opinion shat » tilfor seystem of practice, embracing tho features present od in the resclat’on, should be prepared by a special 1 ciation, ang” cousldered and perfected by this Association ‘itself, at the mestings which will ocour between thie ond the commencement of the next sestlon of the General Assembly. ‘While the members of the Committee are not agreed 4m opinion as to the wisdom of the proposed innova- tons, thes do not propose to ignore, or to advice this Association to ignore, the fact that s now eys- tem of remedies, quite ns radical as that proposed by the resolution, as been enacted by tho Purlin~ ment of England, with the spp: and sup- port of the English Bar; that in moro than {wenty of the Statcs and Territories of the American ‘Union, similar enactments have been made; and that such ensctmenis ore in accord with the tendencies of tho age, ‘That the proposed change in tho laws regu- lating pleadings and practico is possible in Titinois, cannot, after the action of one branch of the last Gen- eral Assembly, ba denied, It must be remembercd that in moony of the States such enactments have been forced upon ® reluctant anf resisting profession, watch, being opposed to any tnnovatious, ‘refused to shape aud mould those which bad become inevitable. In the judgment of the Committe, the English law- yers have pursued the wiser course,” If any legislation Upon thia wnbject shail be had, it should be upon s ‘which has been carefully prepared and subjected to the most thorough criticism by those who have made a life observation and study of the mattor. A bill cannot thus be prepared for the action of the Gen- eral Assembly at its proront session; it may be made perfect, as the cireumstanves will warrant, before the ommencement of the next, While reserving to each member of this Association the might to oppose any legislation upon this subject, we should unfte in moulding that which may be had, in apite of such op- position, into a form as perfoct aa maybe. Thoro is Feason to believe that a refusal on the yart of this ‘Association to entertain the subject or to mako any effort in the direction of a careful preparation of s ‘will, instead of delaying legislation, hasten the en- ectinent ‘of a law defective in arrangement and crude Judge Bradwell said that the report was no re- port i reality, as it acknowledged that the Com- mittee was divided in opicion on the subject they were to report upon. Hoe said that the Commit- tee, if divided, should have presented a majority and 8 minority report. ‘Mr. Withrow, who presented the report of the Committee, supported it in s lengthy speech, in which be compared the system of Ilinois with what was oftea contemptuously alluded to as tho code system which obtained in twenty-four of the States of the Union. ‘Mr. Cooper said that he considered the report was & very unfair one, and be would, aftor dis- cussion had been bad in full, move its recommit- tal to the Judiciary Committee. i ‘BMr. Goodwin was in favor of recommitting the report. ‘Judge Trumbull said that # constitutional pro- vision settled the distinction between preceed- jnga at common law snd oguity. AN should understand tbat distinction, and snould hesitate before they discouraged a distinction which must exist in the United States. His own notion on the subject was that the common law ayatem was the best with such reformations as wero arising. Within'the past twenty-five years be had noticed great improvements in the practice of law, and there wero improvements till com- ing, but he believed that to break down at once the system prevailing would hardly be ex- jent. ‘On motion of Mr. Root, the report and subject martor thereof was laid on the table. ‘The meeting then adjourned.

A back~- woodsman, who was indebted to & country mer- chant, was pushed by the latter for payment of the amount dae, and the only means of ligui- Gating the dobs was by taking » fat ox to the Qnebeo market. For this purpose he tied hig ox to the back of his cart, and drove ts the railway station, a distanoo of 9 miles. On surveying the train and seeing an iron railing around the platform of the bind car, he concluded that that was the place to tle bit ox, which ho accordingly did, taking ® placo in second-class car himself forward. Presently the train began to move off slowly. The speed in- creased; quicker and anicker it went. Tho Poor man got very fidgety.the epeed still incroas- jog, until large drops of sweat became visible on his’ brow. By this time the conductor had senched his car to collect the tickets. Nearly out of bresth, the man ran to him, oxclaiming ; “My dear’ conductor, my ox will never able to keep up to this pace; it is no’ pos- sible.” ‘Your ox: Keep up to this paca! What do you mean? Idon’t uaderstaud you. Have you oxen on board ?” aie ** Not on board, of course. I tied him to the yaling of the bind esr.” “You tied your ox to the railing of the hind car? Who told you to do so7” “(No ono; but that isthe way we always do in the country.” Of course the conductor could not stop his train before reaching the next station, wien, needless to say, on looking for the ox, thoy found uttached to the rope a pair of horns, with 8 small portion of the neck. Mr. Bergh could scarcely call this cruelty to animals, os it was not inteuded. The humane conductor made » collection among the passengers on tho spot, realizing 3 larger amount than the ox would hava brought at market, which he presentod to the crestfallen farmer, who immediately returned home, vowing hewould never have oxen taken to market by railway again.
