Emron Joi'rxal: From Little Laramie river to the crossing of North Platte, a distance of SO miles, the country is well watered by mountain streams, which we cross, on an average, one every S miles; the water is clear aud cold, there being snow visible in the mountains all along at the heads of the streams. The largest of tlic-c streams arc llock Creek and Moriiciuc Bow. There arc loll bridge; :i these streams, charging 50 cents at the former and 25 at the latter. All the rest are forded, and all can he ford ed at low water. The grass is short and poor all along, the large emi gration and the herds of cattle being drove through from the western territories, keep it cut oiF short. We met live herds of horses from Ore gon, averaging about 000 to the herd, and about three times th:it many cat tie. Decide, there are a great many herds driven on the northern route, thar i; hj the Sweet water and Fort Laramie; the num ber of cattle drove through on that route Is estimated at 25.000, with as many more to be driven through. The first r0 miles of the road from Little Laramie to North Pintle is verj rough.with small round boulu ers over which the wagons make a continual rattle. The North 1'latte has two ferries, oik at Fort Steele, and (he old ferry some 20 milee higher up; but a great many ford it' as our parly did. We crowed with safely, thus saving .. on each team Alter wp supposed we had crossed we found we were on an Nland with the deepest part yet to cro. timber on the inland preventing us from seeing the other channel. This crossing of the North Platte is jut about -100 miles above where ve crossed on the 11. R. bridge at North Platte city. At the last crossing the head of the stream is to our left hand, aud having crossed we travel through a different kind of country : the stones are not seen on the broad valley, the soil of which is a light colored clay, possessing no fertility whatever. We have traveled a full half day and have not seen grass enough to feed a sheep and no wa ter since we left the river, but we are drawing near to the base of the mountains on whose sides still shine the melting snow. Wc find a stream of good water, but lower down it soon becomes impregnated with the alkali which covers the lower val leys with a white dust resembling saleratus. Here wc find pretty good feed, and camp for the night. After about o miles travel next morning we come to a ranch where a few things arc kept for sale. What wc need worst is corn or oats for our teams, but there is none for sale here. We learn that after wc travel 35 miles more we come to an alkali desert where wc get neither grass nor water lor 30 miles. Close by this ranch is a small grove of pine and spruce trees, from which it takes the name of Piuc Grove Ranch, the mountains and valleys alike being entirely destituto of timber. Even the timber of the bridge across the next creek was hauled over the mountains 05 miles, at least they told us so, and they don't tell any lies so far west. Petwccu these points lay the divide. The waters of the Muddy mingling with the Colorado aud Pio Grande. James Scully. Mr. Justice Miller, of the United States supreme court, last spring addressed the convention of the Iowa bar. The revised address has just been published, and here is an interesting paragraph in full, to which wc referred at the time : And the Pcecher case! Such a case! A reproach to the court, the profession and the public who read the proceedings every morning with such keen delight ! As a legal pro ceeding it was a mockery. As a theatrical performance, with the whole reading American public for an audience, the judge, the counsel the parlies were actors who kept themselves before the public for two or three months, more Dy the vulgar spiciness of the play than the merit of the performance. Great lawyers are not made in that manner, nor by cases before referees nor by foreclosure of railroad mort gages. Put here in agricultural Iowa where every case presents an honest contest of law or fact, whore there is no wealth to tempt or mis lead the lawyers, where in his village office, with ample time and a well selected if small libiary.theattorncy who is at the same time couusellor and barrister, traces in each .case the principles involved in their orig inal sources, imbibes their spirit, dis covers their philosophy aud assures himself of the applications to his case. It is here that we most Iook for the continuation of the race of great lawyers. It is here that lour ing is sound,t he principles pure, the practice established. It is from some western prairie town rather than some metropolitan that future Mar shalls and Mansfield shall arise aud give new" impulse and add new honor to the profession of the law. io iy nrnmTra "Did you observe the Fourth?" asked Judge Wilsou of a man sitting on the prisoner's bench, with both eyes tied up. " I did," replied that individual, "and I haven't been able to observe anything since." The 3EicllIcton Ganp A ULOODY ri(tIIT WITH TIIH OUTLAWS. Fort Uautsuff, Xeb., July 22. Mr. W. II. II. Llewellyn, a govern ment detective, arrived at Fort Ilartsufl'abut noon to-day from the Niobrara country where he was lately engaged in a desperate en counter with Middlctou and several of his gang. Llewellyn proceeded to the Niobrara in order to consult with Middlctou at hi- request. The business was public and confiden tial. Probably the outlaw wished if possible to come to terms, or it may he entrap and kill the detec tives. Whatever his dcdini he ap peared distrustful of Llewellyn, who experienced some difficulty in hold ing unrestrained communication with him. At length a time and place of meeting was appointed, the plane being the house of a nmu who subsequently proved to be in league with the horse-thievc. While they were at this hou-e in consultation the detective observed two or three small parties or mounted men ap proaching from diU't'iciit ditcclinns. This circumstance excited hi sus picion, lie -oon letnarkcd to a man who had accompanied him, " I think we had belter go down the road."' Middlctou and those of his followcis present accompanied them as they lelt the house. The outlaws manifesting no signs of hostilities, as they prorecded, the parlies before mentioned gradually closed in upon them. Shortly after they were all together, the horse-thieve amount ing to seven in number. Without previous warning. Middlctou drew his revolver and began firing. This act was the itrnnl tor a general hooli:ig-match which commenced without delay. LlcwoMvn and hi companion, a man named llazen, both shot the simc man, named Holt, who tell (.cad. Middieton advanced to'.vnrd IIh.cii who appeared to have lost his self-possession, perhaps through hrin:r wounded. As he made no effort (o defend himself Mild cried: "Don't shoot me, don't shoot mo." The desperado, howev er, shot him twice, when he fell, probably dead. Another compan ion of Llewellyn's, named Likens, a noted detective in the western coun try, a man of uncommon nerve and daring, had not accompanied Llew ellyn to the house, but was conceal ed in bus-lies near the scene of the struggle. About the time it com menced he opened fire, and proba bly struck Middlctou, as his horse escaped from hi control, and he threw his hand to his breast as though wounded. It is to be hoped that the outlaw received a quietus. Another of the band was cither badly hurt or criouly frightened, a he suddenly left the field as fast a his horse could carry him. One of the most conspicuous of the gang was a boy apparently about sixteen years of age. lie was armed with a guu and revolver. This hopeful youth enjoys quite a shining repu tation among his comrades, and bids fair to become an eminent scoun drel worthy of the illustrious "Doc." Finding that his only hope of safety lay in flight, Llewellyn put spurs to his horse and left the field under a volley but both himself and horse escaped unhurt. He is quite certain that Hazeu was killed, and thinks Likens met the same fate. He saw him fall as though shot, but he may have darted forward to run or con ceal himself and avoid the shots directed at him. Two detectives in the employ of the Union Pacific railroad were in the country at the time whose fate is also uncertain. One of them, named Leach, is well known along the line of the road. Mr. Llewellyn will leave here to morrow accompanied by twenty soldiers, who go out under orders to arrest any deserters who may be found in the Niobrara country. With tin's escort Mr. Llewellyn will return to the scene of the fight to investigate matters and discover, if possible, the fate of his comrades. Chicayo Times. The Chicago Loyal Xeics, edited by Mrs. Brachvell, says that "the last year has been the hardest of any year since the organization of courts in Chicago upon the local bar. Many able men have bean driven out of the profession, while some who have remained and attempted to support themselves by their professional la bors, have hardly kept themselves and their families from starvation. Too many arc rushing to the bar. It is better to be a good blacksmith, or carpenter, or farmer, with plenty to do, than to be a briefless lawyer. What is true of the legal profession, is also tiue of the ministerial and medical professions." The famine in Cashmere the 'beautiful valley" about which so much nonsense has been written by the poets has had cflectsevcn more disastrous than those of the yellow fever at the south. Memphis, with two years of pestilence, has lost only about two-thirds of her pcople,while the capital of Cashmere, after a sin gle year of famine, has but thirty thousand left of it former popula tion of three hundred thousand Chicayo Times.

Teach him that it is better to die than to lie ; that is better to starve than steal ; than it is better to be a scavenger or wood chopper than to be an idler and dead beat ; that labor is the price of all honest possessions; that no one is exempt from the ob ligation to labor with head, or ban ds, or heart ; that "an honest man is the noblest work of God;" that knowl edge is power; that labor is worship aud idleness is sin ; that it is better to cat the crust of independent pov erty thau to luxuriate amid the richest viands as a dependent. Teach him these facts till they arc woven into his being and regulate his life, and wc will insure his suc cess, though the heavens fall.
