Northern Pacific Items

Passenger trains commenced running from St. Paul to Bismarck on the 12th inst.

The Northern Pacific thus far owns 374,- 725 acres of land in Minnesota.

The Boston Globe says : “ Bismarck is thename of a new city that has just come to light in Central Dakota. It is 452 miles west from the head of Lake Superior, at Duluth, and is on the line of the Northern -Pacific Railroad. A thousand miles beyond Bis­marck, on the Missouri river, is Fort Benton, at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. Thus the Upper Missouri river practically serves for the present as a western extension of the railroad. Goods may now be shipped by rail to Bismarck and thence by steamers on the river 1,000 miles to Fort Benton, which is in the same longitude as Salt Lake, on the Union Pacific line. A line of ten steamers is already established to run on the Upper and Lower Missouri and tributaries, in con­nection with the Northern Pacific Railroad.

Removal*

Uniforms Arrived.

The uniforms of Helena Engine Co. Nb. 1 arrived last night per express, and the boys will doubtless be out in style on the grand parade on the Fourth of July. It is pro­posed to give a concert on the 2d of July to help the company pay for them, and if said concert is given we feel certain that it will be well patronized. A majority of the com­pany are able and will pay fo r their own uniforms ; but a number of the boys—who are first-rate firemen—are not so situated thatathey can advance the sum at this time. Our citizens may be solicited to donate *femall sums of money, and if sufficient is raised the concert will not come off. Our F ir t De­partment is an honor to the city, and our citizens should help them out by all means.

l it t l e GAME TO OBTAIN *500

We learn to-day by a gentleman from Silver Star that the bridge at that place has not been swept away, as stated by us last week, on the authority of the Montanian. I t was a mis­take—the bridge is all right, and teams are constantly crossing

The Gentlemen Come to Grief*

On last Tuesday night Postmaster Crounse received a dispatch from Sheriff Guy, of Gal­latin county, to arrest any man calling for a letter addressed to James Driskel. Mr. Crounse looked in the general delivery and found such a letter, post marked St. Louis, and he immediately telegraphed Sheriff Guy that he had no authority to arrest any one, the sheriff of Lewis and Clarke being the proper person to apply to. The following morning Pat. Powers received the same in­structions. The Boieman coach arrived on Wednesday abou^ three o’clock, bringing two passengers, who were registered on the w ay bill as Thomas Berlin and Charles Bush. They put up at the St. Louis Hotel and there registered their names as Joseph Milligan and James Driskel, of Gallatin City, About six o’clock that evening Milligan presented him­self at the general delivery of the Post Office and asked if there was a letter for James Driskel. I t was handed him, and he took it, walked out on the sidewalk, opened it, ap­parently read it, and, his companion at this time coming along, (whose real name turns out to be John Thomas) gave it to him to read. Sheriff Powers >vas notified of all the circumstances, and at 10 o’clock that night he arrested both parties at the St. Louis Hotel. Milligan, when questioned, denied having re­ceived such a letter from the Post Office ; but, upon examination, the letter, containing a draft for $500, was found in a memorandum book upon his person. The draft was made payable to the order of James Driskel. Mil­ligan’s accomplice acknowledged that his name was John Thomas, but that he had registered himself as James Driskel. They Were taken to jail by the Sheriff, and last evening were brought before U. S. Commis­sioner Cullen for a hearing. W arren Toole appeared for the defendants. Witnesses were called who testified to the facts recorded above. Marshal Wheeler then slated that im­portant witnesses from Bozeman, including the real James Driskel, had telegraphed that they would come up immediately ; and ac­cordingly the court postponed further hear­ing until Tuesday morning at 10 o’clock. Bail was placed at $1,000 each, in default of which the prisoners were remanded to the custody of the Sheriff.

It appears, as near as we can learn, that Milligan, while in Bozeman, became ac­quainted with the fact that Driskel was to have a draft sent him to the Helena Post Office for $500, and he evidently made up a little plan to become the possessor of that amount of currency. Thomas was to per­sonate Driskel, and Milligan, who is known in the city, probably intended to identify him at one of the banks and get the draft cashed. Further developments are looked for on the examination on Tuesday next.

—Garrison & Wyatt’s bull train—fourteen wagons—arriyed to-day from Benton.

—The stage of water in the Missouri river is rapidly decreasing. The cloudy weather^ for the past few days has cooled off the melting snow on the ranges.

—A reporter describing a wedding, got off the following extraordinary sentence in regard to the bride: “ In regard to her bony facethe twin roses of health and beauty shone.” He probably meant to say bonny, but—“ the careless printers.”

This sketch is drawn in Paris, in the studies of the French painters, and admits us to novel scenes known to very few travelers or readers. We are introduced to the volatile Bohemian artist, and the living models who earn their daily bread by posing in any required character of history, myth­ology or romance. ... *

Gaea into Effect.

On and after Sunday, the 30th, the new postal law goes into effect. Then there will be weeping and wailing aud gnashing of teeth amdng poor Congressmen, poor print­ers and subscribers to newspapers in the county w hereinjhe paper is published. No more will we be indebted to the Honorable Mr. Smith for a supply o f late pub. docs, and bound editions of the Congressional Globe. We shall have to put up stamps for each and every one of our exchanges, 'Or else the oc­cupation of our “clipping” editor will be gone. However, if the Congressmen can stand it on their nominal salary, we’ll try and pay our share.

From San Francisco*

From à private letter from San Francisco, received by a gentleman in this city, we learn that the firm of Bohm, Steudeman & Rosen­thal has been established in 'that city, for the purpose of buying and selling gold, silver, currency, bullion, stocks, etc. Each name is familiar, they all having resided in Helena. The writer also states that the capitalists who have invested in the Cable mine, at Philipps­burg, are very wealthy .men, and mean busi­ness. They will thoroughly develop the mine, and if their investment proves a good one it will be of benefit to the Territory.

Discipline'the Liver*The liver ia truly an *• unruly member.” Sometimes

It is torpid and secretes too slowly, at otner times it is unnaturally active and sends forth a perfect freshet of bile. Regulate this organ with Hostetter’s Bitters, not with calomel or blue mass. Mineral excitants, in stimulating the liver, poison the b la R and their ulti­mate effect is terrible. The Bitters, Mi the other hand, have a vitalizing and purifving, as well as a stimulat­ing effect They not only regulate the flow of bile, bat Infuse new life into the whole system. A good ap- petite and perfect digestion, a regular, natural habit of body, a sound condition of the nervous system, vivacity o f spirits, mereased bodily strength and povÉr of endurance, and refreshing sleep are among the blessings they promote. The temperature o f sommer is a severe tax upon the digeetive and secretive organs, and the Bitters are never more indispensable than at this period of the year.
