Preparations for Vigorous Mining. Fields. 1 | Rawlins, Wyo., March 25.—Bit- ting in my foom to-day with the window open, enjoying the balmy We ! something, hence {his letter. think the climate of Wyoming is the finest to be found anywhere west of the Mis<ouri river and east of the ‘Nevadas.” The summer is Dever oppressive ; the winters mild | and always fine and dry ‘Wyoming is the best stock ceun- try in the world. Cattle are nowin | a8 good condition as they were lasi | fall. Everybody is content with | their situation. 7limes are as lively as could be desired, and the pros. pect for the future is brighining every day. The mines are looking up, and extensive arrangements are being made to push matters wilh | that they would probably be glad | dent’s countenance. | a8 come from persons who appear i 1o have any bueiness which the | Mr. Rogers, the private secretary. euergy, and we feel like saying with success. The wealth is here. Alll that Is wanted is for men to coms here and develop the immensc lodes lying bnt & short distance | north of this town. There are now | in tho “Ferris Distriot” three com panies working their mines success- fully, aud thére are many other | lodes awaiting the commg of cap- itaitsts to open them. The Vaulcan | K. M. Co. has & lode of immense | size, and have just completed new | mill with which to work the ore. The Bnake river placer and gulch | bunes are attracting considerable sttentiou this epring, and the for- | wardnees of the season has opened the country much sooner than usual. The result”is that partles have al- ready commenced going there. McDonald aud Gurley, officers of the Haun's Peak G. & 8. M. Co., of Denver, Colorado, went in there some ten days agoand propose push- ing their business on a large scale duting this summer. They esti mate that their company aione will takeout $100,000 in gold. The Big Horn fever is working up to burnivg heat, and already pros- pectors are coming here to go with the expedition that leaves Rawlins about April 10, aud those who come early are certainly acting wise, b- cause the rush to_that country dur- ing the next stx months will be so great that in a short time the best part of it will be full of prospectors. There have already a number of parties gone to the Big Horn coun- try, not being content to wait for the large expedition. A party of men from the west arrived here to- day, aud will g> on at once. They are all of them jold- timers, and consider it perfectly safe to go there in small numbers. The men here who have gotien the movement on foot to organize the large expedition that will start from | this place about April 10, think it prudent to bave a large party go in first, but want to get there early in the season and locate their claims before the snow melts m the moun- tains and swell the streams to any extent. Old miners will understand the logic of this doctrine. The comuaittee here who have charge of the correspondenee in the organizs- tion of this first party have just shown me a large number of letters from all parts of the country, which settle the matter that Rawlins will be the favored route to the Big Horn. We prediot that by the first of June there will be two thousand men outfitted at Rawhns for that country. Rawlins s, by one hund red miles, the nearest pomt, and has the only practical road ; hence all who know anything of thie coun- try have decided to make Rawlins the point of departure and have al. ready begun to arrive. Everything necessary to outfit @ party cem be had here cheaply. Btock 18 cheaper here than any. where elseon the U. P. Railroad. An arrangement has been made with the U. P railroad company by whlclfiprdes desiring to go to the Big Horn country from here, can get. transportation from Omaha to Rawlins for $25.00, by applying w0 the general ticket agent at Omahs. If agreeable, you will hear from me again, when I have had the op- portunity to visit the mines, and thus be able,to apeak more of the facts as 1 shall find them. DYRE. HAYES AT_i(llE. The Regime of the White House. The C1vil Service Reformerat His Daily Duties—How He Looks and How He Talks. The Underlings that Keep Guard Over Him. Washington Correspondence Philadelphis Times. - 1 went up to the White House fo see how the Executive machine 18 run under its new management. The old door-keepers and ushers employed by Grant are still there. They are former soldiers for the most part, to whom Grant was so much attacbed that be thanked Mr. Hayes the other day for not turn- ing ‘them out. The old proverb, “Like master like man,” is exem- plified in their cases, for they areall smiles and poli-enessnow, whereas, under the old regime, they were rather surly and disobliging. In the snti-room, at the top of the stairs, where brother in-law Dent presided oyer the card-basket ir Urant's first term, sits a tall, sandy-bearded Western man, with a big inkstand and a stack of blank cards before him. The carpet and walls of this room areof a sickly green, and seem to have taken their color from the exhaling hopes of the leglon of office seekers who have occupied it while waiting to get access to the “fountan of honor and preferment.” Every morning ths apartment fills up with a mis- cellaneous crowd, o large that it overflows into the adjoining halls. ‘The scene is worthy the pencil of a great character painter. Nine. tenths of the people are evidently office-seekers. These are easily rec- ognized by their anxious look, rest- less, nervous manner and tne pallor of their countenances. They re- minded me somewhat of the gam- blers or who sit sround the green tables and silently ‘watch the turning of the cards, but they embrace a much wider range of social poeition. These eager ap- plicants for places are of all ranks, from the ex-Senator in black broad- cloth seeking to conceal the humil- iation which he eyidently feels un- der the haughty air which he used to stalk about the Capitol, down to awkward countrymen after village dowdy widows in rusty and weak-faced young men longing for departmont clerkships— even lower, for m the throng t get & pair of the President’s od boots, ANXIOUS OFFICE SEEKERS. { Luckless, as a rule, are these ex- : Deciants. Few of them succeed in basking in the light of the Presi. The tall man with the sandy beard s little better than a snare for the unwary. Few of the cards which he 5o politely asks the hopeful callers to write ever reach the eyes of his Excellen. cy. The truth is, this patient and considerste master of the ante- chamber is a breakwater to keep the crowd away from hie chief, whule they think he is put_there to help them to the “wished-for inter- views. Across the hall, guarding » door, stands a dappet little fellow ot unmixed Ethiopian desoent. In bis keeping are entrusted such cards President wmight reasonably be called upon fo give ear to. He tukes them in and defivers them to Mr. . Rogers is the second break- water. He told me that his orders were to keep all office- seckers away from the President, ard that ir eny slipped past him it was hy sirategy. ‘General Hayes ud 1" were school-boys together,’” aid be, chattiug with me durmg & short lull in the pressure of callers, “‘aud we were Iaw partners in Cin- cinnati. He wanled me to come on and help him in carrying out his ideas of cuvil service reform, and I felt that I ought to make a sacrifice todoso. 1had uo iea that my duties would bs sv arduous. 'Lhe President hopes that in the course of four years he can educate ihe country 8o that we shall no lenger be a nation of offiee seckors. He1s detesmined to make no removals, except for good cause, and toappoint | the best men he can find, whether the politieians like them or not.” THE PRESIDENT’S OFFICK, Occupying a desk at Mr. Rogers’ elbow s usuaily to he seen Webb Hayes, the President’s oldest son, a smooth-faced young man, with a large nose, who wears glasses and looks like a divinity student. He is intelligent and polite, like all the family. Between him and the Pres- tdent there appears to exist & mu- tual confidence and affection too | rarely found between father and ; son. A third desk in the room is used by a hard-working clerk, who attends to the correspondenceunder the Private Becratary’s direction. | On one side of this room, whieh, by | the way, 18 handsomely furnished | and has a lovely outlook on the lawn and the ac, is a smaller apartment, where other clerks are on duty. On the other side three or four steps lead from an open door down to the President’s reception room, a large, square room, with heavy, green rep cuttains, hung over Iace, at the two windows, a bright carpet, two desks, numerous book-cases and an abundance of velvet cushioned chairs, At a large desk in the middle of the Yoom the President receives his visitors. All who are members of Congress or cabinet ministers come directly in from the hall aiter giving their names to a messenger at the door, and do not, therefore, have to run the gauntletof the privatesecretary. Every morning between 10 and 12 tie Benators and Representativen come in a steady stream. mr. Hayes has a chair plaved facing his, to which he motions each caller by turn, rising to shake hands wiih him as he advances and then re- suming his own seat. Sometimes when the conversation is designed to be especially private he gets up and takes his yisitor into a window alcove, and sometimes, but very rarely, he goes out with him into s retiring room, adjoining. THE OIVIL SERVICE REFORMER. The President appears perfectly at home in his new position,and could not act more at ease if he had been to the manor borh, There is a frank aud hearty courtesy in his manner which is just the opposite of Grant's chilling reserve and clam like im- mobility. He talks with a freedom and ease which remind oneof Abra- ham Lincoln, but he don’t tell fun- | ny stories, as Lincoln did, and has | more dignity of bearing tnan the | great emancipator had. In thor- | ough honesty and siacerity of char- | acter, the “resemblance between Hayes and Lincoln will, 1 believe, be remsrked more and more as the country comes to know the man ‘who, throuzh much tribulation of _ Returning Boards and Electoral | Commission, has come to ourre: | publican throne. It issingular how ; Eple generally misuuderstood yes during his candidacy. He was popularly supposed to be a milk- ¢ and water man—a sort of a gaody- | goody person, without the stuff ‘ in him to make a first-class sinner. | Even Republicans outside of Ohio ' vredicted that he would be run by | Morton, Chandler and the old ; Grant clique. It all came from the | qaiet way he bas atid from his aver. | ston to noisy self-assertion. In re- | ality, he is one of the most positive, unyielding men iL public life, and under a velvet glove conceals a hand of iron. He s the most dangerous of all opponents, because he has himself under perfet control, and i8 therefore never oft his guard. His public and private life appears to be governed by a set of fixed princi- ples, from which he never swerves. His' pet political hobby s civil service reform. He seems to'believe that he has & mission to inaugurate a system that shall make the offices no longer rewards for partisan ser- vice, aud his Ohyo friends, like Gar- field, Foster and Cox, who know him' thoroughly, say he can’t be moved au 1nch from the course he has Iaid_out to accomplish this re- form. It ir no mew notion with him T remember as long ago as 1866, when he was in the House from one of the Cincinnati distric, that he gave a_warm sup- port to Jenckes’ bill, which was the first tangible embodiment of the civil service theories. He studied the question carefully at that time, made up his mind, and, with char- acteristic persistency, hasever since stuck to the ideas which he then imbibed. lhe busness reception; at the White Houee lasts till two o’clock, the last two hours being for such of the general pubticas approve them- selvesin Mr. Rogers’ eyes as no of- | ways a cro forty or fifty sons 1n the hall and ante-room, l:.nrt; the President usually comes out of his well-guarced retreat, and, shak- ing hands right and left with the throng, listens to the petitions of such as can get his ear and impudence enough to urge their claims to office under such unfavor- able circumstances.

T, March 31.— Last evening a messenger in bot haste arrived in town, giving the alarmivg intelligence of a cold- blooded murder on Upper Horse creek, thirty miles from this city. "I'he circumstances were as follows: For the lust two or three years, there hus been bitter feuds in tbat neighborhood, in which the present murderer was more or less involyed His name is Norman McQuaig, while his murdered vietims names are James P. Jackson and bis son, John Jackson. The origin of the tragedy seems to have been on ac- count of a schocl teacher, & cousin of McQuaig's, who ill-treated a younger son of . Jackson, -mere ihiough spite and malice than for any special fault or mere discipline This enraged the elder Jackson, who Was one of the school board ; but being in & minonty, he could not have the teacher discharged, Boon, however, the sthool house was discovered to be razed to the ground, evidently the work of an mcendiary. This only added more | iutensity to the old feud; but ex- copt an occasional wordy alterca- tion between McQuaig aud difterent members. of tne Jackson family, nothing of a’ serious chaavter oc- eurred untii the dreadful tragedy of yesterday morning. Yesterday forencon McQuaig rode over to Juckson’s ranch, and hitching his horse to & post, proceeded in the di tection of tue stables, whete J. P. Jackson and his son were working. It does not appear that there were any words. The elder Jackson came out of the stable, when Me- Quaig at once leveled a revolver at him. At that moment, the son seeing his father's danger, attempt- ed to dart past for the house, for the purpose, perhaps, of eecuring arms, McQuaig, at once taking in the son’s intenton, turned from the father and shot the son tead, He then turied upon the old man and shot him through the heart; and not even content with that, fired two more bullets into the prostrate body, to make surety doubly sure. Mre. Jackeon and a small son were powerless spectators of this double murder, and unable to ren- der any assistance to the father and son. Duringthe shooting McQuaig's horse broke loose and ran to Clark’s ranch, four miles distant, where McQuaig recovered, and rodeawsy. Mrs. Jackson followed almost in his tracks to Chase's ranch, to give alarm; and the only wonder now seems to be, that he did not kill the old lady and the younger on, and thus remove all evidence. Deputy Sheriff Dalton promptly gol together & posse of tanchmen, and started tpon the trail. McQuaig had two hours the start, and will lead them along chase, and the chances are that he will resist and not be taken alive. It is now pretty certain that he Is the incendiary who, two years ago, fired the stabies and hay-ricks of Mr. Frank McMahon, which re- sulted iu the loss of 30 tons of hay, a span of fine horses, cows, calves, farming utensils, etc., valued at something like$1,500. 1t is alleged that he recenily boasted of that achievement to certain parties. It 80, it raises the suspected odium oft & very worthy citizen, who has hitherto been the suspected party. BCACK HILLERS, The town is literally alive with Black Hillers, who come now in large squads from the esst, south | and west, over the Denver Pacific, Kausas Pacitic, and Union Pacific railroads. The Cheyenne and Black Hills stage company now run a dally coach both ways between this city and Custer and Deadwood. A coach drawn by six fine American | 8 horses starts out every morning with eighteen passengers, while an- other arrives every evening. Even this can hardly supply the demaud, unless they can put on about five aaily coaches both ways. Notonly the coaches, butalso private wagons and every sort of vehicle are brougut | & Into requisition to convey the goid- | th seekers to the modern El Eorado. A WORD OF CAUTION TO BLACK HILLERS. People comng from the East, and who are not up to Indian deviltries, must be very well guarded and vig- ilant. Let them always be on the alert for “signs” and have their arms where they can lay their] i hands on them in an instant. They | pecessit must keep their teams well *‘closed up,” 80 88 to be in & position to corral rapidly in case of an attack in force. They must mot straggle ahead too far, or on the flanks, nor lag behind. I have been familiar with the mode of the Indian attscks, for the last twenty years, and I have not known an instance, at least not over oue out of teg, in which fatal results was not attributable to negli- gence and fancied security. The Indian will hardly ever expose him- self unless they sre in large num- bers, and the party to be attacked inferior in numbers to themselves. The usual mode is to make a dash from behind a bluft, knoll, or over a. hill, on their unsuspecting victims. | & There is a volley fired, a series of yells and whoops; the deed 18 done and the Indians sre galloping over the hills before the surrivers have clear comorehension of the tragedy. Hence it is of the most vital im- portance that the leader of every train or party, or stage load, should imprees it upon their followers, comrades or Dassengers, to be al. ways on the qui vive, aud have their | Kidn arms where they can Iay their hands on them. Then a few well-directed shots will speedily check or turn the dusky warriors. and presence of mind 1s half the battle against Indians.

Then with & brauch from this eity to Custer aud Deadwood, Cheyenne will be- come a prominent railroad center, and a place of commercjal 1mport- snce. 'Lhis Is as it should be.
