Yesterday afternoon, says th Vir ginia CliTonicle, this office was visited by Harry Williamf, an old Comstocker, who has for some months past been try ing his luck in the Black Hills with good results. Mr. Williams is a keen observer of events, and does not require to be pumped to be induced to tell what he knews. "Tell us all about Deadwood, Mr. Williams." "Deadwood may be considered a very lively town; that is, lively for a town of two thousand inhabitants. Of course it's the central camp where all the gam bling, fighting and business is done. Everything goes on a grand rush, night and day. There is no regularity about anything. A man opens a place of busi ness and makes lots of money, then he gets the prospecting fever, starts for the gulches and shuts up his shebang. When a place is closed up it means that the owner is out digging, has been killed in a fight, or is off on a spree. We have no municipal government at all. Every man think's he's mayor of the town. Every once in a while the boys call a mass meeting, draw up reso lutions, eta, and decide to incorporate the town and have a board of alder men; but at the end of the week no body knows what has become of the resolutions or the aldermen. We start a new city government every two weeks and bust one every week if there is any." "How about the theater?" "Yes, we've got a little theater there, not nearly as well fitted up as your cockpit. The orchestra chairs are made of stakes driven into the ground, with a round piece of board, about the size of your hand, nailed on top. Admis sion, $2.50; reserved seats, $5. They run a sort of variety show, and sling In the jokes and stage busines3 as broad as possible. The can-can was danced some time until the boys got tired of it, and they said, 'Give us some singin' or we'll clean out the place. We want some thin' elevatinV And the manager had to import a female sentimental vocalist at big expense to appease the patrons. She sung, 'Sweet Spirit, Hear My Pray er 'Consider the Lilies,' 'I Know That My Redeemer Liveth,' and other high toned music, and I thought that the boys would go crazy with delight. But they got tired of it in about a week. Fanny Garritson was the singer. I be lieve she used to be here." "Many saloons there?" "Saloons all over the place, and whis ,ky four bite a drink; Tbiypjittw barrels up on end, nail a board across for a bar, and deal it out. A miner who wants to treat, pnurs some gold dust on the barrel head and says, set 'em up.' They never weigh the dust Sometimes a man wont put down dust enough, but they never say a word ; and if he's a little tight and pours out $10 or $15 worth, they never mention it They have three faro banks running all the while. They don't use checks for the boys; when they won a pile of checks, they threw 'em all over the place, and some were too drunk to handle 'em. So the checks got played out, Now a man puts a little gold dust in a dollar green back and it goes for $2. Ten dollars worth of dust in a $10 greenback goes for $20, and so on. They never weigh dust at all, but guess the amount." "Have you a daily paper?" "Yes. sometimes if s a daily, and then when the compositors get drunk it don't come out for several days. If a man wants gun wadding, he goes and pays four bits for a paper. Whenever they start a new city government, they print a lot of ordinances, then there's a grand rush for the paper. Sometimes it comes out twice a week, and some times twice a day." "Much 8hootmg?" "Oh, yes ; the boys are all on the shoot Every man carries about fourteen pounds of firearms hitched to his belt; aad they never passany words. The fellow that gets his gun out first is the best man, and they lug off tr-e other fellow's body. Our graveyard is a big institution, and a growing one. Some times, however, the place is right quiet Fve known times when a man wasn't killed for twenty-four hours. Then perhaps they'd lay out five or six a day. When a man gets too handy with his shootin' irons, and kills five or six, they think he isnt safe and pop him over to rid the place of him. They don't kill him for what he has done, but for what he's liable to do. I suppose that the average deaths amountvto about one hundred a month; but the Indians kill some." The excessive cold of .the early part of the winter extended to latitudes un accustomed to such visitations. At Shreveport La they had sleighing for a few days, which was never known here before by the oldest inhabitant A firm inNew York is about sending ont to Australia four locomotives for use on the railroads of the Government of New South Walec. Icebergs of the Aatarctic Sir C. Wyville Thompson recently gave a lecture in Glasgow upon the pe culiarities in the physical conditions of the Antarctic regions. In the months of January and February, 1874, the Challenger was cruising in Antarctic waters, and the observations made at that time furnished the speaker with the materials for his address. The pe culiar conformation of the icebergs fill ing the sea south of latitude sixty de grees was the subject of particular dis cussion. The bergs encountered by the Challenger were universally table -topped and perfectly flat, with a cov ering of dazzlingly-white snow. Some of the larger ones were one or two miles in length, and had evidently pre served their original length. The av erage height of these bergs was about two hundred feet Their sides were blue, the pale tint of the upper part deepening gradually to the base. When viewed closely, the face of the berg was seen to be traversed with a delicate ruling of faint blue lines, separated more widely as they neared the top. Sir Wyville deems the evidence near ly conclusive tbat these icebergs have their origin on land which is compara tively low and fiat, and which is bor dered for a considerable distance by shallow water. "I conceive," he says, "that the upper part of one of these icebergs, including by far the greater part of its bulk, and culminating in the portion exposed above the surface of the sea, was crea ted by the piling up of successive lay ers of snow during a period, amounting perhaps to centuries, during which the ice cap was slowly forcing itself over the low land and out to sea, over a long extent of gentle slope, until it reached a ,depth of considerably beyond two hundred fathoms. The lower specific weight of the ice then caused an up ward strain, which at length overcame the cohesion of the mas3, and portions were rent off and floated away. If this be the true history of the formation of these icebergs, the absence of all land debris in the portion exposed above the surface of the sea ib readily understood. If any such exist it must be confined to the lower part of the berg to that part which has moved upon the floor of the ice-sheet" Professors of Literature. Now that the talk is about colleges, may not an outsider express surprise that in one department of study the colleges, with rare exception?, fail to engage the services of experts. English literature is supposed to be a matter ol considerable importance in the intel lectual training of young persons; ev ery college has a chair of belles lettres, or English literature, or rhetoric, or modern and unclassical literature of some kind ; and yet how many colleges in this country have professors in these chairs who know what literature is when they see it? Three or four col leges, perhaps; but not many more, so far as the public can be sure of. There are plenty of men in such po sitions who have the dates at their fin gers' ends; who have systems and theo ries, and what amount of insight and real knowledge the gcds may allow. They can publish hand-books of Eng lish literature very poor ones; they can lecture on aesthetics, on literary pe riods, on the influence of so and so on something or other, or on somebody or other; but in reality they do not know what they are talking about There are comparatively few people, at best, who do know what literature is when they see it; generally such people prove their insight and ability either by writ ing criticisms on literature, like Sainte Beuve; or by making literature, like Longfellow ; or both, like Lowell. We saw a letter written not long ago from a young fellow out West, of liter ary promise and ambition, to an East ern man, asking him which of three Eastern colleges named he would ad vise him to enter. Two of these col leges were old, the third was new. The person questioned did not venture to advise in favor of any one institution ; he told what he knew about each ; but with reference to the new college he said that so long as a certain professor, whom he named, remained there, this would be a good place for his 'young Western friend. The proieseor to whom reference was made is a teacher of literature, who meets all the require ments mentioned above. He knows what the thing is when he sees it, He can criticise it He can make it He has the enthusiasm of the creative fac ulty. He stirs up the young men about him not only to keen appreciation of literature, both old and new ; but he impels them to accomplishment in lit erature. The effect of such an Influence upon young people can hardly be overesti mated. The history of literature, as of all the other arts, is the record of cau ses and effects of a character like this. We do not underrate the element "of individual genius. But when we read closely the history of any art, we find that the men who are popularly cited as exceptions to all rules are, after all, in a sense, the mere legitimate out growths of circumstances; and the cir cumstance of a good and an inspiring teacher has always been one of the most fortunate and. most productive. If it is answered that the "turning out of geniuses" is not the only function of an institution of learning, then it may be replied that the teacher best calcu lated to awaken dormant genius is also the one best calculated to correct and cultivate the taste, and elevate the men tal tone of the most ordinary member of his &MW.--Scribner for March.

A visit to Dr. Pond's hospital, a few days since showed the institution to be in admirable running order throughout, nearly filled with patients in the vari ous stages of disease or convalescence, ana the doctor and his assistants with their hands full of business. The build ing, since the completion of the new portion, has been tilted up with all the modern appliances for the comfort and convenience of inmates heated by steam, and each room supplied with hot and cold water, pas, eta, while electrici ty is also carried into every room. The most ierfect order prevails, and the pa tients, one and all, seem confident that the treatment they are undergoing is all that has been claimed for it. Prominent among the most critical cases recently cured, or at present un dergoing treatment, we may mention the following, to whom the skeptical have the privilege of referring if they will not take our advice by visiting the hospital and giving the institution, th treatment, and the progress of the pa tients careful investigation : Mrs. W. E. Lyford. For many months she had suffered intensely from malig nant internal growth of enormous size, which was removed four weeks since the lady being under the influence of ether for two hours during the opera tion. She had so far recovered as to be able to attend services on Sunday last iu the parlors of the institution, and her present condition satisfies the most saneruine expectations of herself and friends. Mrs. L. W. Halladay, has just h id suc cessfully removed an inttinal lungus growth of the size of a goou egg. by means of the electric cautery. She bore up finely under the operation, and is doing remarkably well. Hon. Philander Smith, of Oak Park, 111., has been relieved of a frightful cancer under and attached to the left eje, and extending from the inner cor ner around to the temple. The eye has been saved, with tt'e sight unimpaired, though all hope had been abandoned previous to his case being entrusted to Dr. Pond. His sufferings had continued three years, during which time he had tried nearly every cancer doctor in the land without relief. His cure is com plete and he is enthusiastic in his praise of Tr. Pond and his treatment. We found several Chicago ladies un dergoing treatment for cancers, inter nal and external, promiscuously located, but they seemed to prefer that we should omit their names, though quite willing to add their testimony should their ad dress be obtained from the records of the institution. Mrs. E. Morrison last week returned to her home, after being relieved of a terrible cancer in the left breast im proving rapidly and in excellent spirits. Mrs. W. T. Barbour, of Chicago, is among those who have just been suc cessfully treated. Mrs. O. W. Streator, has returned to her home after having an ugly cancer removed from her breast Mrs. Wm. Kector departed on Satur day last another severe case effectually cured. Mrs. N. R. Rowley is again among her friends, her life having been saved by the removal of a cancer from the breast and beneath the arn, after all other hopes had been abandoned. Another critical case, effectually cured, was that of Mrs. Ira C. Pratt. One of the most alarming cases treated in the institution during the past year, was that of Wm. Xorris, of west Saulsbury, Vermont, The cancer was located in the left groin, and nearly as large as a man's head. Having tried the best and most skillful physicians East, all of whom pronounced his case utterly hopeless and incurable, he placed himself under the care of Dr. Pond and after nine weeks' treatment he departed for his home on. Thursday of last week, and the immense sore was nearly healed. His case was one of the most remarkable on record, yet very similar to that of Thos. Penman, of Yorkville, who was cured by Dr. Pond three years since, and is now a sound and rugged man, and happy to be inter viewd by those of an inquiring turn of mind. Mrs. J. M. Littell'3 is a very critical case. Mrs. Littell resides in jtfew Jer sey, and had been operated upon with the knife by the very ablest eastern phy sicians. She came to Aurora as a last hope, and will shortly return to her anxious friends. Mrs. G. M. Cooley, of New York city, was also without a ray of hope after years of intense suffering. Dr. Pond has found it necessary to remove por tions of three ribs to arrest the terrible disease,and the lady is doing finely. Mrs. Bradner Smith has returned to her home in Galena, I1L, after the re moval of a cancer from beneath the left eye, and one from the right cheek. 'Only last spring, Mrs. E. M. Lenox had cancers removed from both breasts by Chicago operators with the knife. Being terribly prostrated, when brought to Aurora there was apparently little hope of saving her life yet in the two days after the removal of the cancer she was able to sit up. She has returned to her home, and is doing welL Mathew Welch has bad a dangerous cancer removed from the leg, and de parted. lira. S. R. Collins, of Missouri, was successfully relieved of a large cancer in the right breast Mr. C P. Peterson, of Princeton, DL, is undergoing treatment for an enor mous growth on the side of the neck. It takes the whole side of the neck and face, extending nearly around to the other ear, and is a most horrible sight Yet his case is by.no means so critical ; some others which the doctor has treated'with complete success. -? Mrs. James JaConette, of Bastrop, Louisiana; Mrs. M. Greenlev. of Vir ginia; Mrs..Cha. Blnger. Illinois, are dangerous cases now in the course of treatment Mrs. L A. Morrison, of Washington. D. C has returntd home after the re moval of an lntnal cancer, which had been unsuccessfully operated upon by the most eminent physicians. J. Leach, of Winona, Minn.; Robert C Gibson, of Iowa; and Caleb Mason, of Bristol, UL, are being successfully treated, and doing nicely. One of the most frightful cases in the hospital at the present time is that of Wilson McClure, who was sent here from the National Soldiers' Home, at Milwaukee. In this case the cancer takes in the entire temple and left chctk to the nose, and is shocking in the ex treme. Miss Celia Scribner, of Boston. Mass, is here with her mother. Mrs.S. J. Scrib ner, of Waterville. Maine, who is hav ing a cancer removed from the right breast and is doing finely. Uncle John Thompson is still under Dr. Pond's care, with an alarming can cer in the mouth. Among cases of wonderful cure ef fected, we mav mention that of C G. Ilargus, Recorder of the city of Du buque. A vear or more since, he came to Aurora and looked over the hospital ; he then traveled extensively and care fully inspected the various modes of cancer treatment and returned west to place himself under Dr. Pond's care. In Chicago, hemorrhage set in, :ind he reached Aurora in so prostrated a con dition tbat scarce a hope remained ot his life being saved. The treatment progressed favorably, three of his ribs were found to be diseased and had to be removed, and in April he had suflicient ly recovered, to return to his home. Mr. Hargus was here on a visit a few days since, in perfect health and with out an apparent trace of the terrible ordeal through which he iMissed but a few short months ago. He will doubt less be pleased to answer all questions in reference to his own case, or other which came under his observation while an inmate of Dr. Pond's Cancer Hospital. We will only add that Miss Bradford, one of the most dangerous cases of last spring, who was pronounced by Aurora physicians absolutely incurable, and with but a few hours to live when brought here, is now in robust health, and recently drove nine miles to par ticipate in a pleasure gathering, and re turned the same day without apparent fatigue, Come now and Let na Keuon Together. Why do people so frequently say to Dr. Pierce, I suppose your Golden Medical Discovery cures every thing V Because it has been the practice ot knavish charlatans to manufacture worthless nostrums and attempt to dupe the ignorant and ci edulous by recom mending them to cure every form of diseasa To such an extent has this been practiced that it is no wonder that many have acquired prejudices against all advertised remedies. Hut Dr. I'ierce does not advertise his standard prepa rations as "cure-alls," does not claim that they will perform miracles, but simply publishes the fact that they have been developed ;is sjwcilics for cef tain forms of disease for which he recommends them, after having tested their efficacy in many bundled cases with the most gratifying success. It is a fact known to every well informed physician that manv single remedies possess several different properties Quinine, for instance, has a tonic qual ity, which suggests its use in cases of debility; an anti-periodic, by which it is efficacious in ague; and a febrifuge property, which renders it efficacious in cases of fever. The result of its ad ministration wi)l also vary with the quantity given and the circumstances under which it is employed. So. like wise, the Golden Medical Discovery possesses poth pectoral and alterative, or blood-cleansing properties of the highest order. By reason of these two prominent properties it cures two clas ses of diseases. First, those of the respiratory organs, as throat, bronchial and lung affections, chronic coughs and asthma, and second, diseases of the blood and glandular system, in which affections all skillful physicians employ alteratives, as in eases of blotches, erup tions, ulcers, swellings, tumors, ab scesses, and in torpor of the liver or "biliousness." While its use is, by its combination of properties, suggested in cases of pulmonary consumption, yet you neea not taice it expecting it win cure you if your lungs are half con sumed, nor because it is recommended as a blood medicine would its proprietor advise you to take it expecting it to cure cancer. It will not perform mira cles, but it will cure many grave forms of disease. Speaking of the merits of what is known as Sulky Plows, the Kansas State Agricultural Report, just issued, says: "The Gilpin Sulky P.ow we have given a thorough trial through the en tire season, which enable me to speak positively of its merits. From the day that the implement came on the farm, it has been the favorite whenever its services were required, rapidly super seding the Gang and the various walk ing plows heretofore in use. The ad vantages which may be claimed for this plow, are: First The excellency of its work. In this respect it is greatly su perior to any other walking or riding plow that I have before seen. But its superiority in this regard is especial ly seen in corn-stubble or very heavy clay lands. It turns under corn-stalks more perfectly alone than did any other plow that I have seen after the stalk cutter had passed over the lend. This fact alone makes it emphatically the Western farmer's plow. Second, Its lightness of draft A single trial, taking for its standard the amount of earth inverted, will, i believe, convince any unprejudiced person of its superiority in this respect Third, Tts strength and durability. Being made altogether of iron and steel and its parts put together in accordance with mechanical princi ples, it combines strength and durabil ity in an eminent degree. We have used this implement during the entire season without the outlay of a single cent for repairs." Deere & Cc Moline are the manu facturers.
