He 1s a member of a gang of ruflaus who beat Mr. Schaffer so severely some time ago that he nearly lost his life. When the case was brougnt to trial, in the Court of Ses- sions at Hudson City, the jury rendered a verdict of simple assault, the punishment for which wasa sinall fine.

Captain Donovan re- paired to the house and remonstrated with the bar- keeper. Hereupon the latter became furious, and when ejected he made an onslaught on the Captain. During the straggle the Captain wrested a newly snarpened dagger from the prisoner, and probably saved his own life thereby. Notwithstanding a des- perate resistance he conveyed his man to one of the prison celis. The prisoner immediately smashed everything In his reach, and rent the water pipe, which had to be plugged to prevent the flooding of the cells. He was put in irons, but continued his wild conduct for a great part of the night. He will be arraigned before Recorder Pope to-day, He wore the shield of a deputy sheriff, and im that capacity was employed recently.

Deven, Colorado Territory, Nov. 9, 1809. Although Colorado is unsurpassed by any other Territory or any State upon the Continent for the salubrity of its climate all the year, as weil as for the beauty of its mountain scenery, summer is the most pleasant season in which to visit it, In that portion of the Territory lying east of the Rocky Mountains travelling in winter 18 exceedingly agreeable; but westward the snow at times prevents convenient transit by the paths among the hills and dales and unimpeded or certam passage over the great moun- tain ranges, From July to October the peaks and passes of the mountains in this enchanting section of the Western country are casiest of access, and the plains and parks and mountatns appear in thelr greatest glory. At whatever season of the year the visitor may come, however, he can- not fail to see how rich Colorado is in valuable min- erals, in agricultural resources, in magnificent mountain views, In curious and suggestive geo- logical formations, in a pure, invigorating atmo- sphere, which rejuvenates sinking invalids; in azure skles and splendid sunsecs which rival any I have ever seen in Italy, Ratlroad communication with the Bast and West—which will be secured next summer; safety from the Indians to travellers and trains distant from the railroads, more capital judl- clously invested, more labor at reasonable yet re- munerative rates, with some economical process for reducing ores, and a more extensive system of irrigation, would speedily develop the latent mineral and agricultural wealth of Colorado to an extent of which @ prospective statement would appear extra- vagant or fabulous, From the line of the Union Pacific Railroad Denver is sttll reached by stage coach from Cheyenne. The Toad hes, apparently, within easy walking distance from the base of the foot hills, beyond which rise the snowy summits of the dividing range; but me foot hills are really a dozen miles away, while some of the snowy peaks, which seem to cluster close among the tops of the lines of lower hilis and to be little, if any, higher than them, are subsequently seen to tower thousands of feet above them, and to stretch away to a distance of fifty or sixty miles from where the foot hills merge into the plains. Such 1s especiatiy the case with the lofty summit of Long’a Peak, which, when you seo it first, looks like a@ portion of the nearest range, while, in truth, it 18 over 14,000 feet higu—one of the highest points among the Rocky Mountains, and a long day’s journey from the eastern base of the lowest range. , This magniilcent Rocky Mountain system of the eastern siope, of which you here obtain a glimpse, extends westward from 500 to 1,000 miles in width, in a series of ranges whose general trend is northwest and southeast, with mnumerable intervening valleys, irregwar in- termediate elevations, great gulches, wild gorges and rugged and romantic canyons. Scenes of quiet beauty are found everywhere among the mountain valleys, and a magntticent panorama greets the gaze from any of the lofty summits, At some points the superticial deposits have been swept away from certain slopes, and there as well a3 on the perpendicular cuts the solidified granitic strata are exposed; but generally the mountain sides are covered with sedimentary rocks and stones of various sizes, intermingled with the most recent deposits of drift materials. A considerable growth of pine trees adorns many of the mountain sides and the lower summits. At no great distant period of the past, looking back in the hgbt of science, large bodies of water and floating ice must have filed these mountain gorges and intervering vale Jeys, and, sweeping down through them to the plains, carried and deposited here and there rounded rocks and pebbles and an Immense amount of floating debris, all of which you see gradually diminishing in size, as the distance increases cast- ward trom the mountains, until even the pebbles disappear and the surface of the plains is composed of fine sand and soil, The beds of the streams that issue [rom among the mountains, the contigu- ration of the open country near the 1oot hitls, and the materials of which the elevations of the rolling lands sre everywhere composed, clearly indicate that great boaies of water swept swiftiy down where now only sliallow streams descend, or where even nothing more 1s left to mark the highway of once powerful currents than dry beds of sand. ‘Tne surface of the country along the base of the moun- tains 1s extremely unaulaung, presenting a succes sion of valley, ridge and rounded butte, generally decreasing in prominence of outline the further Irom the mountains, and clothed with the nutritious grass which is so well known and so highly prized Tor stock raising by people in the West, Atareasonabie distance from the mountain base and nearly parallel with it iows Box Eider creek, which waters @ delightful little vatley about two miles wide, which is comparatively well settled from near its source to Where it mingles with the Cache ia Poudre, below the village of La Porte. abundant crops have been raised there this year without resort to irmgation. Southward on to Denver the road crosses nearly at right angles the courses of several streams which come down into the open corfntry through the deep declivities in the easiern lank of the Rocky Mountains. All of them, eituer directiy or indirectly, find their way into the South Platte river, which, rising far away among the interior Mountains, flowing throvrh the celebrated Souty Park, thence through suc essive gorges, emerging from we me sone twenty mules southwest of Denver, ¢utting through the city, all the while diverging slightly from @ paraliel with the foot lls in @ line a little east of north for a dis- tance of over seventy miles, it finally makes a long and graceful sweep aud settles in its eastward course, Some of the smaller streams are sometimes dry, but the larger ones obtain a perpetual supply of water from the melting of the snows. They have a fali of water sufficient to irrigate the highest eleva- tions on the neignboring plains, and a volume ade- quate to the requirements of Inany mills. The valley of the Cache la Poudre forms a fine agricultural region along its course of over thirty miles, The valley of the Big Thompson possesses equal agricul- tural advantages, and is somewhat sunilar in ap- pearance and insize. The Little Thompson, which 1s tributary to its bigger brother, shows along its bed and borders a large amount of gravel, often coarse. Its * supply of water is Mable to fail. The stretch of land between these two creeks is quite wild and rugged. For obvi- gus reasons the region of the Little Thompson is betver adapted to stock raising than to general agri- cultural cultivation. Approaching the St. Vrain tuere is a full nour’s ride down a very gentle slopo to the margin of the stream; but on the soutn side the banks are quiie abrupt, increasing in height toward tho mountains, but diminishing eastward on the plains. By this natural conflguration the valley ‘on the north side spreads out to an extent of many mules, and a rich productive soil underiies the com- paratively smooth and even surface. Au extensive plateau divides the St. Vrain from Left Hand creek, Which is tributary to it, Between tne plateau and the the foot hilis lies a lovely little vailey, which nestles under the shadow ol the mountains, Further soutn oulder creek makes ita appearance, and runs for nesriy twenty mules, before 1¢ empties into the St. Vrain. south Bouider flows down another gorge, and soon min- gies with the parent stream. Boulder City is located at the base of the range where the creek debouches from the mountains. The county is rich in agricul- tural and pastoral resources, 1n coal, tron and cop- per, and in gold and silver mines. The agricultural and mineral wealtii will be more and more de- veloped in proportion to the greater abundance of labor and the demands of the increasing population. The agricultural and pastoral productions of tne county for the present year will exceed $300,000, Five coal beds are already being worked, and there are now in operation two flour mills, several saw mills, and a large number of stamp mills for re- ducing gold and siiver ores. The minin and miscellaneous productions will be abou $250,000, It is estimated that for the present year the aggregate earnings of this immediate region, With a population oi not much above 2,000, will be over balla million dollars. Tne resent value of the land and stock and imiscella- neous property owned in Boulder county ts aboat $1,000,000, Coal beds crop out all along the eastern base of the mountains, from South Boulder creek down into New Mexico, ‘Those that have been thng far discovered near the surface are from five to four- teen feet in thickness, It is believed that the great coal flelds which uuderiie the Rocky Mountain re- gion will furnish fuel at extremely moderate prices and tn suflictent quantities to supply the wants of the West for many generations. The largest known development of the tertiary coal-bearing strata west of the Mississipp! river appears at the Marshall mines, on South Boulder creek, The next reveais itself on Ralston creck, five miles north of Golden jrou is also found in large quantities ta this and works have been constructed at South torender the ore available for use.

Many settlements and farms are ilourishing along the valleys I have Bamed. Wheat, oats and bariey, which are the chief cereals cultivated, are ratsed in great abund- ance, ani We potatoes, cabbages, turnips, tomatoes and other vegetables have a aelicious favor and grow to immense proportions, The planting of {rait trees has not been aitempled yet to any g! extent, but there does not seem to be any W founded reason why apple, pear, plam and cherry trees would not thrive duety in tits region, believe that not many years will have elapsed before this section of the country will display a namber of fine orchards. strawverr ripen here avout the middie of July, aad other garden frults can be grown quite as Successfully as they.

WEST INDIES. . DENNARARA, Coolie Emigration—Convict Labor, Krnaston, Ja., Nov. 8, 1869 A correspondent writing from Georgetown on the 27th ult. says:— Mr. Jeffrey, the Immigration agent resident at Calcutta, has purchased a steamer for about £20,000. She is called The Far East, which he has treightea for Europe, and laden with coolle immigrants for Demarara. Mr. Jeffrey considers that the colony will gain £13,000 per annum by an arrangement of this kind. The scheme has fallen to the ground in consequence of not a voice being raised in favor of it throughout all British Guiana. The Far East arrived after a passage of 86 days, with 475 coolies, the cost of Importation bemg £15 10s, perhead. The scheme has been pronounced a complete failure and a great loss, Applications had been received from the Gover- nors of Bermuda, Bardados, and Jamaica, asking the government to receive convicis from these islands during periods of sentence, the government of Demarara having the benefit of their labors. In the case of Barbados they asked for an exchange of convicts, but the government declined all three ap- plications, because it would give the colony a bad hame, Two black men received thirty-nine lashes each for stealing plantains, ANTIGUA. Passage of a Stringent Quarantine Law. KrasTon, Ja., Nov. 7, 1869. We have advices from St. Johns to the 27th ult.: An important quarantine law had been passed, in which it 1s provided that all vessels reporting sick- ness or death from any infectious disease shall ride quarantine for fourteen days, dating from the cessa- tion of such sickness or the death of such patient, and that all vessels having touched at an infected port shail ride quarantine for not less than tio days, nor exceeding fourteen days, to be decided by the Quarantine Board atter investigation, A PRIZE FIGHT IN KAN Waiker vs. Nolan=Six Rounds for $500— Tae Former Victorious. (From the Leavenworth (Kansas) Noy. 17.} The little steamer Zephyr bore a large crowd from the levee at Kansas City and Wyandotte to the scene of a sanguinary conilict between two candidates for pugilistic honors, Nolan and Walker, The spot selected was a sandbar in the river near Parkville. The boat rounded to, the stakes were driven and the ropes adjusted, The two combatants were nearly matched as to gize, the ad- vantage in weight, we should say, being with Walker, Nolan was the favorite of the crowd, and secmed to strangers as capable of win- ning the Agut, from an apparent superiority of wiriness, The crowd, numbering some 200, crowded about the ropes, and the preliminaries were arranged. Scakes, $250 a side. Ed, McGrann, stakeholder; Dan Ward, referee, On the first round both seemed at first to display their knowledge of the art rather than to do any hard work. Several scientific passes and parries were made, Nolan showing the greater skill. Except a blow on the cranium, Nolan got no touch, Clinch- ing. Nolan brought Walker to the ground. Betting at this time was largely in favor of Nolan. The second round was not sanguinary, little hard hitting being done, but on a clinch both were thrown, failing simultaneously. ‘the third round was a well contested one. The advantage appeared to be with Nolan, notwitustand- ing his shortness of wind. Walker on this round got tho severest punishment. Nolan got in @ left hander on the ribs and was following his advantage when Walker clinched and both fell. in the fourth round Nolan's oe Was closed by a terrible blow, which really decided the fignt—both men were knocked down. Nolan was brought in puding from exhaustion. On the fifth round Nolan fought wildly, his closed eye affecting the sight of the other; he could not see Where to strike, por did he have the strength to combat successfully further, Walker's superior en- durance began to tell; still Nolan was pluck to the last, and with more strength in his arms than in his legs he succeeded in getting ina powerful biow on Waitker's breast that came near finishing the pent, Knocking Walker against the ropes, which sa him. Recovering, Walker hit Nolan some telling biows, hurting him badly, and finally throwing him. It was evident that Nolan had buat little further endurgnce left. His nose and mouth were filled with blood and respiration was dificult. The sixth round finished the contest, Nolan having no show. His blindness and weakness gave Walker the chance to strike where he pleased. Nolan was knocked down and carried to his corner in alimp condition, On time being called on the seventh round Nolan, with true grit, tried to ad- vance, but fell almost senseless by his chair, whea the sponge was thrown up. The crowd, many under tne impression that Nolan ‘was mortally mjured, rapidly dispersed, Walker walking to the boatand Nolan being carried by his seconds senseless to his stateroom. Everything coumected with the brutal transaction Was conducted fn an orderly manner. As nsuat after a fight a collection was taken up for the vau- quished, Walker carrying around the nat himself, Commercial, THE LAST OF THE BOSTON COLISEUM. The Great Gale Finishes the Great Bore. (From the Boston Evening Transcript, Nov. 20.] The storm of this morning culminated 1n a gale that was scarcely eclipsed in fury by tue memoraie gale of September last. For about twenty minutes, between half-past eight and nine o’clock, the wind was at its height. ‘The Coliseum received its finishing stroke. For several weeks workmen have been busily engaged in taking it to pieces and assorting the mass of valuable lumber for sale. Their progress at best has been slow, and up to this morning they had succeeded in removing only the roof covering, Noor and minon details of interior construction. The building was thus left without those safeguards to an erect position that weuld have probably rendered the work undertaken by the contractor for its remo- val an unprofitable job, Ateight o'clock Irom fifteen to twenty men were at work within the walls, bat were compelled to desist just before vhe fall by the torrents of rain that poured dowa upon them, and K refuge ma separate building, used as a lumber office, near by. ‘The contractor did not follow them, but sought shelter for a few moments beneath one of the galleries, Finding his position an uncom- fortable one, he leit the structure for his overcoat, which he had left in the office before mentioned, He was hardly clear of the entrance on the outside, when a violent gust of wind lifted the roof trusses and they came ccushiag down on to the centre floor, closely followed by the huge columns that were the main support of the roof. ‘The side walls were not materially affected by thia blow, but drteen minutes later another violent squall sent the west wall and gallery in with tremendous force, splintering boards, shivering timbers and breaking the lumber Ueglh The southeriy end next succumbed to the force of the gale, succeeded by the failing outward of two-thirds of the easterly side and about the same proportion of the northerly end. All that remains standing of the once proud pile 1s about 100 feet of the northeasverly corner wall, the largest portion maintaining its perpendicular, being on the easterly side, The scene of destruction presented is almost inde- scribable. Tilt ends of the ponderous columns are badly shattered, the jagged extremities of beams and broken knees protrude in every direction from the mass of shivered chips into which the boarding has been so summarily converted. The damage to the lumber thus broken cannot fall far short of $5,000, which is a severe reduction on the eer expectations of the fortonate chance proprietor of the colossal structure, though it has relieved the individual who contracted to take it down of what threatened to prove serious embarrassment.
