THE MAOIC OITT OF TB* PLAINS.
Dear Enquirer: Thia, the grand
jumping off plaoa for the “Black Hills,”
i* very properly oelled—poetically called,
I might add, “The Magio Oity of the
Plains.” It doe* deserve some anoh ap
pellation, for it i* indeed a remarkable
eight to see snob civilization in the midst
of enoh deeolation. Five hundred end
sixteen miles ont on the plains from Oma
ha, six thousand feet above the see, not
a tree or a shrub in eight; enow on the
ground, and now briskly felling, it stands
forth a well bnilt oity of 6,000 inhabitants,
doing an immense business.
tin none ago.
It was larger at on* time in the past
than it ie to-day, and had eight or ten
thousand inhabitants. That was ten
yean ago, in 1867 and 1868, when it waa
the terminus of the Union Paoiflo Bail-
road. Prostitutes, gambler*, thieves and
roughs constituted about half of its pop
ulation. Murders, robberies and ereon
wee the order of the day. For protection
the respectable oitiisna organised them
selves into a vigilance committee. They
oommenoed hanging and shooting right
end left, end soon made a vast improve
ment on the morale of the town.
THX VIGILANT*
are the only thing that oan “regulate" in
the wild West, when the ronghe get too
strong. The law is two slow. I waa on
the plains of Kaosaa in 1868, at the end
of the Kansas Paoiflo Baiiroed, and satis
fied myself on this point.
Cheyenne appears now to have attained
its maximum growth to me. Nothing
grows around it, exoept
BUFFALO OB ASS,
but this and the Mnsqnite of Texas are
the finest grasses in the world for stock.
Insignificant looking, hardly ever mere
than two inobes high, more like Bermuda
than anything else, its exeamive nutri
tiousness ie a marvel. Daring the sever
est winter give the horses or oattle a
plenty of it and they will keep sleek and
fat.
FINS STOCK COUNTRY.
This will be and ia now a fine (took
country; for agrionltnre it never will be.
Neither soil nor seasons are enited for it;
end the same oan be said for all the
country from the British Possessions to
the Golf of Mexioo, for e distanoe of two
hundred miles eaet of the Boeky Moan,
tains.
GOLD BBXKBB8 AND ITS FOLLY.
I find here many people bound for the
Blaok Hills, whioh are two hundred and
forty miles a little seat of north from
Cheyenne—lying partly in Dakota and
partly in Wyoming Territories. I do not
donbt that there ie some gold there, bnt
a majority of thou who do go in searoh
of fortune, will rup nothing bat a bitter
disappointment. Most of thou whom I
have enoonntered have never before rat
foot in the West, and are totally ignorant
of mining. Their ohanou of striking a big
thing are not very flattering, when there
ie already on the ground a vut number
of experienced miners, men who under
stand that as a business. They very often
will make it pey, bat for a yonng man to
leave a good, oomfortable home rad strike
out for the froien regions of the North,
whioh even now are eovered with anow,
on the deadest uncertainty, it the height
of human folly. For a man of family to
do anything of the kind, why, he ix worn
than a fool.
I think the Sionx Indian* will aeoare e
good deal of hair in the vioinity of the
Hills this spring and summer. As huvy
as the influx to this new Eldorado now is,
I look for the egreu to be maoh heavier
in a few weeks. In feet, there ie e steady
stream flowing from there now, bitterly
oursing their lack, and damning tb*
Blaok Hills to perdition.
SNOW.
I notice two enginujost in from to
wards Sherman, the highest point on the
line, 8242 feet. A snow-plough is attaohad
to the one in front, and the enow has

the Denver City and Union Paoiflo Bail-
road, it will always assume some import
ance, but never will, in my belief,be any
thing mors than it now is. If I had tha
time and money I would take a trip to

ROYAL INCOMES.
THX PRINCX OF WALKS AND THX QCXXN OT
BNOLAND—VICTORIA'* WXALTH.
About ten yean ago the London pram
was almost unanimous in admitting the
necessity of an addition to the inoome of
the Prinos of Wales, end it wm generally
expeoted that an npplioation for some
420,000 a year more would be made to the
House of - Commons. The Spectator, an
advanced liberal journal, indeed, went eo
far as to observe that “£ 100,000 a year
was no longer a first-olas* fortune,” and
that there were many commonen u well
u nobles far richer then the heir to the
throne. However, the government took
no steps in the matter; snd it was pres
ently rumored that it refrained from so
doing because there wu reason to appre
hend that anoh a proposal would arouse
unpleasant oomments u to the expendi
ture of Her Majesty, end provoke sug
gestions that as she had in so large a de
gree abandoned representative functions,
she should contribute handsomely to the
expenses of the Friges, on whom their
maintenance fell.
Binoe then the Prince's revenue from
bis Dnoby of Cornwell hu risen some
£20,900 ■ year, and now amonnti to £72,-
000 a year, bnt he reoeivu the urns par
liamentary allowance (£40,000 a year,and
£10,000 a year for the Prinoess) that be
did et hie marriage. Meanwhile, he hu
had uveral children, end the cost of liv
ing since be married hta increased at leut
ten per eent.,so that hie means ere really
leu then ever. If the Prinee had merely
the expenses of a great nobleman, hie in
come, although leu than that of many
peers and some oommoners, would amply
anffloe; bnt he has many expensu whieh
tradition, etiquette end royal sham oom-
pel him to inenr, from whioh they enjoy
an immunity. He ia expeoted to enter
tain profusely, to give splendid preunte,
and to subscribe to every eonuivebl* ob
ject. Bat while the eon is often in straits
where to turn for a thonund pounds, the
mother is literally rolling in riohea.
What Quun Viotoria leave* behind her
will never be known, buann the wills of
sovereigns are not proved, bnt thou who
have carefully considered the snbjeet are
of opinion that she mnxt, einoe the Prinoe
Consort's death, have saved at the very
leut, £100,000 a year. Not only has she
lived so quietly that a large proportion of
her £385,000 s year publio inoome must
be uved, bnt it is to be remembered that
Mr. Nield left her £500,000, whioh at four
per oent. would give her £20,000 a yur,
and she reoeivee £48,000 a year from her
dnehy ot Lancaster. The orown lands,
given np to the oonntry in lien of a parli
amentary annual grant, have of late years
been so ably and eoonomioally managed
that their revenue oovets the royal allow
ance, end these erown lands were u maoh
the property of the sovereign u the lends
of the duke of Devonshire, or any other
landholder, are bis. If the oonntry ehose
to make the most of them lands by ont-
ting up, say, the New forests, and selling
it in lots, and adopting a similar plan with
other outlying poueuiona of the erown, it

The revenue of the duaby of Corn
wall hu risen £22,000 in 1824 to £72,000,
end increases annually about £3,000, so
that the next prinoe of Wales will proba

Bt. Louis, April 29.—William Pants,
who killed Catherine Barr, a ohild abont
nine years old, in Bollinger oounty in
this State, on the 15th of November, 1875,
wu hanged at Marble Hill, Friday before
a great orowd of people, who ume for
many miles to witness the exeontion.
Pentz made a brief speech on the soaffold,
in whioh he said it wu women, whiskey
and bad men that had brought him into
trouble. Previous to the execution he
made a confession, saying he murdered
Catherine Barr at the request of her
mother, as she (the child) knew of the
illioit iutimaoy between herself and Pantx,
and she wu afraid the ohild would tell

To All. Fortlealarly Invalids,
Spring ia. a trying season. Indications
of siekneu should at ones be attended
to. Fetal disuses may be mused by al
lowing the bowels to beoom* constipated
snd the system to remain in 8 disordered
condition, until the disorder hu time to
develop ituif. An onnu of prevention
ie worth ■ pound of eare, ie an old and
trnthful uying. Therefore, we advise
all who are troubled with the oomplsints
now very prevalent—headache, indiges
tion, disordered liver, went of appetite,
nansee, or feverish skin, to take, without
delay, Sehsnok's Mandrake Pills. We
know of no remedy so harmless end deci
sive in its ration. It at onoe strikes at
the root of tha diseara and prodnoes a
hulthy tone to the system. People nev
er need suffer from any diseara arising
from a disordered oondition of the liver,
if they wonld take this excellent medi-
eine when they feel the first indications
of the malady. Families leering home
for the summer months should take three
or foar boxes of theu pills with them.
They here an almost instantaneous effect.
They will relieve the patient of headache
in one or two hoar*, end will rapidly
cleanse tbs liver of earronnding bile, end
will effeotaelly prevent a bilious attaok.
They ere sold by ell druggists.
