\ LETTER FROM COLORADO.
SILVER CLIFF. Feb. 10, lssO.
1 j Editor* Cilizer, —ln answer to the
: many inquiries relative to the society,
| the climate, the mineral resources, in
' ; short, the advantages afforded for
i making money iu the State oi Colo
; rado, a few facts misrht be fitting, not
only to the general reader, but to those
more directly interested.
The attention of the entire East
has been directed toward the West,
and more particularly within the last
eighteen months to the wonderful
mining districts in the State of Colo
rado. The fabulous tales of sudden
wealth have ever crazed the human
mind. Thousands and tens of thous
ands have flocked (like so many
eagles in pursuit of carrion.) to a
common point, without due considera
tion or even thinking as regards
what they shall do, or upon what they
shall subsist, only that they are going
to the gold and silver fields t<» make a
fortune; and, in a few weeks, or
" months at most, to return to their
' i homes heavily burden with treasure,
I to live in ease and comfort the re
mainder of their days. But not so ;
this expectation soon vanishes, unless
it be the exception. In their eagerness
ar.d anxiety to reach these fields of
hidden wealth, many fail to avail
themselves with the necessary per
quisites, either from want of sufficient
knowledge, or of funds, or both ; con
sequently they suffer great inconve
nience, and often hardships and ex
posures never before anticipated.
Then it is that the heart becomes
faint and sick, and thoughts of friends
and home comforts are sweet remem
brances. But the hardy old pioneer
miner yields with perfect resignation
to his lot. There is no place, gener
ally speaking, w here one is supposed to
more carefully look after himself and
his oirn business, than in a liveh min
ing camp; and the more is he to be
pitied is, upon his airival, he becomes
the victim of misrepresentation or
misplaced confidence.
Notwithstanding the bulk of society
is formed of the best men and women
of the East, well educated and refined,
upon whom better days had dawned,
full of energy and enterprise, bright
willi hope, indc mitnble Ln spirit, en
deavoring to rise to their former sta
tion in life or enhance their present
comforts or luxuries by more and val
uable acquisitions, yet there are many
characters whose presence isa blight to
any community; in many instances
refugees from justice, engaged in un
lawful enterprises,numerous and varied,
fleecing the uninitiated and unwary.
The worst, disreputable characters,
either kill one another ofl' or finally
leave for some other point lest the law
abiding citizens administer justice by
virtue of their own rii/ht. In a well
regulated or well-oflicered camp law
and order generally prevail, though at
times it may require a strong and
vigorous hand to enforce it. Sehoo'-
houses and churehes, well attended
and supported, soon spring into exist
ence, together with many orders and
organizations whose mission is the
good of the common bn therhood of
man. Brave and noble hearts beat
beneath the miner's garb. External
appearanees are no criterion of what
was once enjoyed, or of tlie mental
capacities of the individual ; society
accepts him just for what he is, not
for what he was, or might have been.
Men from the ranks of every profes
sion, whose early trainii'ghas received
its finishing touch at some well-recog
nized college or university, here cost
aside their professional airs, and exper
iment on the nohiliiy and dignity of
manual labor, not that they are com*
i pel led to do so for subsistence or main
tenance, but that that strange, indes
cribable feeling, the hope of immediate,
sudden fortune, drew them willingly
into the onward, rushing, whirling
current of excitement. Every prov
ince in Europe, as well as every other
State in the Cnion, now pays tribute
to the Centennial State. These peo
ple have come to remain And out of
lhi> diversity of individuality, as well
as diversity of personal interest, will
come forth those elements which make
Colorado the richest and one of the
most powerful States in the Union.
Before spe.iking of the character of
climate, a brief iop (graphical outline
will not be out of place. From the
Missouri river to the base of the llocky
mountains the prairie, or mcssa lands,
so often called t he («'reat A mcrican Des
ert, of more than five hundred miles in
' width, hove an imperceptible, gradual
j rise, till four or five thousand fct is
i reached above tidewater. The State
j comprises within its eastern boundary,
I from north to south, a portion of this
elevated plain. From out this plain,
bv some wonderful natural force, the
mountains are thrown lip, in ranges or
in irregular confused masses, appear
ing not unlike the skeleton backbone
of some great animal. Spurs and
towering snow-clad peaks, the summits
of which literally go out of sight be
yond the clouds, attain to the height
of from nine to nearly fifteen thousand
feet above sea level. Between these
ranges beautiful valleys aie found,
and parks, consisting of thousands of
acres in area, with streams of water
clear as crystal flowing down the rocky
gulches, but usually ot a high eleva
tion. Climate is not only modified by
thermal currents and degrees of lati
tude, but by altitude also. Hence,
Colorado may be said to comprise a
diversity of climate ; her skies clear
and bright everyday alike; her sun
sets of marvelous beauty and grandeur,
the shades and tints the most striking
and varied ; her starry heavens spar
kle and l.link with exceeding bril
liancy ; her moon shines with a soft
ness and mellowness that is unsur
passed in a denser atmosphere; the
atmosphere dry, pure, fresh and cxhili
rating, but rarefied; electric changes
frequent, not always known by die-'
charging thunderbolts, but by eileut
ntßiotipberic currents affecting sensa
tion. The spring season opens early.
Summer is not oppressive with heat,
nor is winter exceedingly cold, and
autumn is nil that could be desired lo
onv climate. The nights arc cool the
year around. Mud and ruiro aru al*
uiWt vuLuWl- iifo wiiAi UL.U tiwv
lat times are, of all things. the most
disagreeable. Snow, in the valleys of
low altitude, does not fall to exceed
from ten to thirty inches, nor does it
remain long, but on the peaks it may
lie seen almost the entire rear, being
many feet in depth. The fall of raiu
is comparatively light, except on the
mountains once in a while a cloud,
torn asunder as it were, pours forth
its contents in overwhelming torrents
down the rocky gulches, fearful and
terrific, and with equal vehemence does
it snow, for your writer has been in
formed that upon Pike's Peak snow
has fallen to the depth of eight feet in
the short space of four hours.
Mining camps are necessarily at a
high altitude. The valleys Uiug un
productive, except by means of a system
of irrigating ditches, vegetables, Ac.,
that are grown demand a high price.
Supplies in the main must come from
without. Hence the cost of living is
high, but wages usually keep pace.
However, they are controlled by the
richness of the mines and the demand
for skilled labor, and as a rule rate at
from $2.50 to i>er day.
! Colorado has had the reputation of
i having a healthy climate, and thous
-1 ands of invalids have tested the effici
! ency of the many mineral springs in
' various localities, of which mention
; will hereafter be made. People die here
and, if subject to the same conditions,
would die elsewhere. The chief
sources of nearly all compla nts are in
discretion, undue exposure, too high
stimulation, and the mode or manner of
living. As the ascent is made higher
the air Incomes more rarefied, contain
ing less of the \ italizingor life support
ing properties in proportion to the vol
ume breathed. The heart beats
quicker and the circulation more rapid.
Hence, certain affections of the heart
or lungs, or a predisposition to the
same, latent as it were at sea level, un
der certain unfavorable conditions,
may speedliv develop into a fatal dis
ease. All acute diseases run a rapid
course, but yield to early and judicious
treatment. However, convalescence is
quite slow. Acute pulmonary troubles
are the most to lie dreaded, usually
the result of exposure. An attack of
pulmonary hemorrhage is the experi
ence of not a few on their first arrival.
Chronic lung complaints, as asthma,
emphysema, «&c., are wonderfully and
materially benefited, and, under cer
tain conditions, cases of consumption
or tuberculosis do get well. It is a
well-established fact that there is no
better climate in the world, except it
be along the river Nile, for the con
sumptive invalid than in southern
Colorado at not too high an altitude.
Its efficacy is due to the dryness of
the atmosphere, together with the
equableness of temperature, and pos
sibly electric influences, aided by tin;
utmost care and a certain amount of
judicious medication. The individual
ought to understand the weak points of
his system and guard them as he
would the approach of the fell des
troyer, and with care in his search for
wealth he may find a more priceless
boon than money.
The mineral resources of Colorado
are simply w< nderful ; the wealth
amazing; the treasures inexhaustible ;
the rich fields constantly enlarging.
Gold placers have been recently found ;
new carbonate districts discovered,
and lodes, fissure veins, unearthed.
Kvery camp this summer will boom as
they have never done la-fore. The
rush has already begun. The objec
tive points are Silver Cliff, Leadville,
Gunnison, Hubv City, Ute Reserva
tion. Klk Mountain, Dolores, Grand and
White rivers and their tributaries. It
is fair to predict that mines will IK;
developed that shall rival the Bassiek
or Hull-Domingo of Silver CHI, or
any of their famous mines at Leadville.

John Taylor, President of the Mor
mons, officiated lately at the funeral of
a wealthy young man named Cain,
who had been an apostate from the
Mormon Church, but whose mother
and sister are good Mormons. Taylor,
after some fitting remarks, said :
"Was he a saint? No; he was not
a saint, but departed front the Church,
lb- left tin- faith. Did he die a saint '!
No; he died a drunkard and will find
a drunkard's grave, lie In/s gone to
hell and there is where he deserved to
go."
His mother, with a wild shriek, ex
claimed : "My God! My God! My
only son! and to think his only fault
should thus be made public!''
Both the mother and sister of young
Cain fainted and were carried home.
Si I'KKI STKNMSWT WALKER suggests
the appointment of justices of the
peace as ccn.-us enumerators, but how
ever suitable Ml< LI appointments might
be in other respects, in this State, Arti
cle XII.. Section 2 of the Constitution
stands directly in the way. The lan
guage of this ucction is as follows :
No member of Congress front this State, nor
wiv person holding or exereisintf any office or
ap|K>iiitiiienl of trust or profit under the United
Stiilt***, shall ill the Mime time hold or exercise
iim' office in tlii- Sliile to which n salary, fees or
periiiiisitiei HIIIIII be attached. The lieneral A»-
semiily may by luw declare what offices are In
compatible.
The act of May 12, 1874, designates
these incompatible offices to be those of
"justice of the peace, notary public
mayor, recorder, burgess or alderman
of any city, corporate town or borough,
resident physicians .of the Lazaretto,
constable, judge, inspector or clerk of
election under the Commonwealth."
The census enumerators, therefore, as
their office is one of trust or profit un
der the United States, to which a sal
ary or fee is attached, must be ap
pointed in Pennsylvania from those
holding no one of the above Slate of
fices.—l'h iludelph ia i'reve.

NO. 14.
] A BOLT two years ago the Minnesota
Bureau of Statistics announced, iu its
| annual report, that "A new industry
has been born." The meeting of Min
nesota Amber Cane Growers, recently
held at Minneapolis, shows shat, north
ern sorghum culture, the new born
industry, has already achieved aston
ishing growth. In the year 1875
there were 1,534 acres of. cane in Min
nesota, . producing 70.470 gallons of
syrup ; in IS7 there were 1,f.95 acres
and 72.489 gallons: in 1877, 2,200
acres and 140,153 gallons; 1878, 3,-
207 acresand 429,6f!0 gallons; in 1879,
4,824 acres, with the number of gallons
not yet returned, but probably 700,000.
Mr. Seth 11. Kenney, a pioneer in the
amber cane industry, whose results
attracted little general attention until
1876, has taken six pounds of sugar
from each gallon of syrup—he drained
200 gallons jn-r day, yielding sugar
worth s9fi, and llfi gallons yielding
sugar worth about s34—total, $l3O.
Still, this sugar is not quite palatable,
and the refining process must be car
ried further. In the United States,
every year, from 1,500,000,000 to 1,«
700,000,000 pounds of sugar are used;
for this from SI 10,000,000 to $115,-
000,000 are paid. Thus the project to
raise sngar in the Northwest has a
national importance. One farmer
wrote to the Minneapolis Convention
that it cost hitn $9.10 to produce an
acre of wheat, $41,55 for an acre of
sorghum, $8.05 for an acre of corn.
But he expected to sell an acre of
wheat for sls, an acre of sorghum for
$75. an acre of corn for $lO. If the
refining of the amber cane sugar can
be carried on until it is as palatable
and commercially valuable as the
foreign, the prediction that Minnesota's
sugar production will one day equal
in value that of its wheat may he ful
fillcd. *
M ss MEEKER'S remarkable literary
production about "How the Utes Live"
is having a tremendous run in the
newspapers. Nearly every one of them
has published it—some of them three
or four times over. The next thing we
know some fellow will dramitize it, and
then we shall have it going the rounds
again. If Miss, Meeker had as many
dollars as that article of hers has been
printed times she would l>e rich. Her
contribution to the stock of human
knowledge begins by teliing the world
that "the Utes live principally on bread
and meat. When they can't get bread
they live on meat, and when they can't
get meat they live on bread." These
are surely striking facts—if they are
facts, which there is little reason to
doubt. Miss Meeker omits to tell us
what these wonderful Indians live on
when thev can get neither meat nor
bread. An Irishman would resort to
potatoes under such circumstances, and
so would most people—that is, if they
had the potatoes to resort to. Miss
Meeker's description of the aboriginal
bill of fare will remind some readers of
the ancient dame of whom Mother
Goose melodiously says:
There was an old woman, and w hat do you think?
She lived upon uolhliiK hut victuals and drtnk i
Victuals and >li ink were the chief o{ her diet.
And yet iliis old woman scarce ever was <|tilct.
AN 'NTERESTINU case of "higher
law" diversified the routine of a city
police court 1 tely. A man named Par
ker, who got drunk and made a row,
was arraigned before ,1 ustice Hammer,
when Counsellor Hathaway appeared
in his behalf. "I ask this man's dis
charge'" said the lawyer, "and I ask it
on the highest known law in this
world." "What is this law ?" queried
his Honor, looking in surprise at the
lawyer. Here it is your Honor." said
the lawyer, taking up the Bible from
the Magistrate's desk. "1 read from
Proverbs, 31st chapter, 7th verse:
'Let him drink and forget his poverty,
and remember his misery no more.'
What higher or more explicit law than
that can we have?" "Let me see it,"
said the Magistrate, taking the book,
and remarking in a moment, "that's
so." Mr. Hathaway then pictured the
poor man's desolation at finding his
home forsaken, and showed him to be
a hard-working man. He was dis
charged.
CATTI.K diseases, hard for farmers
under any circumstances, must seem
specially so when spread by cattle
colleges that teach the arts of prevent
ing them. According to Farmer
Paige of Hard wick, in Massachusetts,
the Amherst Agricultural College sold
him an Ayrshire heifer full of tuber
culosis, whose milk harmed his chil
dren, and perhaps helped him to a
stroke of paralysis which he suffered
soon after. Dr. CrcSsey, once a pro
fessor at the college, but now sepa
rated from it on account of some dis
agreement, after examining, before a
Farmers' Institute in Worcester
county, a piece cut from the animal's
side, pronounced it diseased with
tuberculosis of long standing. Per
haps it may still be doubted whether
tlie heifer was diseased when sold;
but other farmers who have bought
stock at auction from the college are
naturally alarmed.
Now SAVE TIIE RAOB.—The most
noticeable, perhaps, of all the advances
during the late "boom" his been in
the price of rags, which have more than
doubled in value, and are now worth
three cents and a half per pound. At
this price, and even much less, it will
pay to save them and sell them. The
same is true of old paper of nearly
every kind, as by cleansing they are re
converted into w hite paper by the mail
ufact tirers.
In consequence of the scarcity of
rags and old paper, the price of "print,"
or paper for news purposes, has gone
up from six and a half to ten cents
wholesale. If this price keeps up, there
will be tt general rise in the subscrip
tion price, as has already occurred.
Almost any family can make enough
in a year by selling rags and old paper
to pay for all tbuir reading matter.
THE Tow&nda, Bradford county, i?E.
porter says : "The Supremo Court of
the State has decided that tho change
of a figure on printed form of note, as
to mark an 8 aver the 7Ju the dftte.
