The "Gulches" Briefly Described- Where "Fay Dirt" is Found. Magnificent Probabilities , fcat Little Yet Accomi > lished "lJed Rock" Mysteriously Missing. Minerj Offfor the Bhj Horn. Correspondence of the Chicago Telegraph. DEACWOOD CITY , July 12. Before enteringjupon details I will will the extent of the placer deposits tributary to Deadwood City and what I can ascertain of their geolog ical position from the most reliable data at hand. Whitewood Is the principal gulch in extent , it being claimed that it has prospected ex tent of 20 miles ; and Deadwood , its principal tributary , is about six miles in length. The gen eral course or trend is east and west , as is the case with all the other gold-bearing gulches in the vicinity. Negro gulch , from which very fine specimens of coarse cold have been taken , is 35 miles to the north of Deadwood , being a short tributary of Bear creek , or gulch. Bear gulch , 35 miles to the north , is quite e"xteusive , tlie gold coarse , but little ground yet opened. Sand creek , 65 miles northwest , is many miles in extent ; specimens of coarse gold ore found , but no "regu lar pay streak" yet struck ; Potato and Tender-foot gulches , 25 miles to the northward , have some claims paying well , and : i nugget has been obtained from the former weighing nearly $160. Box Elder , 15 miles to the southward , is very extensive , but no ground has yet been prospected which It is thought will "pay. " At .Rapid creek , 35 miles to the southward , the ground is very deep , and no bed-rock yet reached ; it prospects well , but can only be handled l > y capitalists. Jim creek aud Gold run are little tribU' tary gulches which are eaid to yield well , or promise well , atfaoinepoinis. JNow all this aggregates a tremen deus extent of placer country , and if 1 should even approximate in richness to the deposits ol some of the districts in the old mining countries , it would afford employ ment to at least 100,000 men ; but the placers here are undoubtedly "spotted. " There are no regular deposits , and tlie country is aa vet scarcely prospected at all. Whitewood - wood and Deadwood gulches are now , and will probably continue to be , great centres of population and business. A a but very fe\v claim * have as yet been opened , they will be more populous and active next year than they now are. Ten del lars to the pan ot dirt has been ob tained in Whitewood gulch , and a man assures me that out of six successive pans washed from a Whitewood claim , he never got a prospect with less than S3. Several claims on Deadwood are no\v paying from J500 to § 2,500 day over expenses. One Deadwood claim has already yielded its own ers a clear profit of over $100,000 , and they are only getting it fairly opened. They expect to realize a million out of it. They bought it early in the spring for $1,000 ; and It was offered last April for a sack of flour and forty pounds of beans. The adjoining claim pays nearly , if not quite , as well , and Ihe number of "big paying claims" is increas ing with every day's developments. Some of the richest ground , though claimed , has probably yet to be opened , being held by men who are not able o open It. But I must warn the adventurous voting reader who has "been thinking of taking a trip to the Black Hills , " to not get excited , for there certainly is ANOTHER SIDE OF THE STO11Y. Hundreds auJ thousands are wearily trudging over the moun tains without making a cent , and but scantily supplied with food They curse the dav they were al lured , by glowing newspaper ic- ports , from their eastern homesand promise themselves , if they get back m safety , to go on no more "wild goose chases. " These , however , as a rule , are men inexperienced in mining , aud unused to hard work , and there is no harder toil than gold raining , aud who cannot , con sequently , secure employment in competition with old , experienced mining men. Good miners have no trouble , I believe , in getting em ployment at Irom five to six dollars a day. But comparatively few young men of the ea-4 would think of coming to the Black Hills to work for wages. The only inducement - ment to make the trip is the hope of "striking a fortune. " If they only had the figures , showing how few out of the aggregate number of seekers lind a fortune in gold- mining countries , this hope would soon dissolve. CHANGES OF SUCCESS are indeed remote. But money cir culates abundantly here , and men ot pluck and energy can scarcely fail in general business There must be a steady improve ment in general business for some years , as we yet know but little of the extent of the mineral resources. Another season , at least , will be re quired to even get the majority of the claims in Whitewood and Deadwood - wood gulches into proper working condition. { The chief object of my prospect ing tour was to study the geological formation , and deduce , ir possible , some rule to be observed in explor ing intending , if I found a paying claim , to make tlie most of it. I failed in finding a paying claim , but as I expected J. should from the be ginning , this was not a crushing dis appointment. But I fouud this that past experience in gold mining - goes for nothing here. I have said that there were " " no "regular" de posits. The precious dust is here found in what I may term irregu lar deposits. The old " bed lock " and "wash" theory is knocked all to pieces by the practical experience of the Black Hills. There is no "bed-rock" hare , and but little "wash. " - TheW-igiual bed-rock If an old miner would be allowed to speculate has been torn to atoms by some kind of a convulsion , and it is run through the sluice-boxes in in sharp , angular fragments of slate. Neither the gold nor the rocks show the action of water to any great ex at tent. In some places I fouud coarse particles of gold on the surface , in loose grayel , and NOT A COLOR in the present bed-rock. There are places on the summits of some of the highest hills which are very i rich paying well to carry the dirt ' down to water in gunny-sacks while little or no pay is found in the rulcb deposits below. "Pilgrims" fhd good pay In toe most iiplikely t $ places , where an "old miner" would no more think of looking for gold than in a ledge of limestone. The gold apparently ia in secondary de posits that is , after having first been deposited from the quartz veins. It has again been scattered by subsequent convulsions , and is now "where you find it. ' ' Finding , on my arrival , great excitement over gold-bearing quartz veius , Imve given them some attention. have examined some rich "blow outs , " or "chimneys , " some of the rock specimens being spangled all over with free gold. As the owners call these "well-defined" veinsl they will thank me , probably , for not designating them by name. Kome of them may lead to regular veins , but they certainly do not in themselves bear the evidence of "true fissure veins. " 1 have seen some well defined lodes here , which 1 believe to by rich in mineral , but they show nothing to excite any body. Usually quurtz which is re markably productive at the surface does not hold out so well as that of moderate richness. Xiong tunnels must be run in at practicable points none have been &o started yet , I think aud deep shafts must be sunk before capitalists will make heavy investments In the Ida Gray district , the lime stone and slate join the granite for mation , and between the two , run ning entirely through the district , from the northeast to the southwest , is a great mineral vein , from five to twenty feet wide , which undoubted ly carriessilver as well as gold. This vein id traceable a great distance on the very crest of a high range , aud a vast extent of plains country can be seen from it beyond and over the mountains. The other minerals discovered in the Black Hills , down to this time , are iron , copper , isiug-glass , gyp sum , and plumbago. The extent of the timber growth has not been ex aggerated. This item alone would probably justify the construction of a railroad. The mountains are covered - ered with pines of majestic growth , while in some of the valleys ; there are splendid groves of oak. Ash and elm also grow to a good size. Ttie wild fruits are plums , grapes , raspberries , strawberries , service- berries , and huckleberries. Borne of the canyons are also choked with hazlenut bushes. I have not yet visited the agricul tural districts. The Spearfish val ley , 15 miles west of jeadwood , is said to be fertile , and a fine grazing section. J < orty er fifty FABM LOCATIONS have already been made there , and a little town established. T have Ho doubt general farming will prove successful here , in favorable locali ties , as there are some flourishing gardens in Whitewood and Deadwood - wood gulches , high up in the moun tains. Hams are veiy frequent here , ac companied by terrific electrical pheuomeua. Days warm and nights cool and pleasant. Though there are no mosquitoes in the Hills , it is the most insectiferous region , in the summer peason , I ever visited out side the tropics. An expedition of 70 men set out from Dcadwood City day before yesterday for the Big Horn moun tains. They will go by way of the head of the Rosebud , where it Is said there is a flourishing little camp of mountain miners , who have struck payitiu diggings. This camp isi-akl to be about 125 miles northwest of Deadwood City. It is reported here tuat paying diggings have also been discovered in the Owl Creek moun tains , one of the western tributaries of the Bis ; Hoi n. 1 hear of still another - other large expedition organizing for the Big Horn country. Emigration continues to pour into the Hills , and the population is now estimated at from 8,000 to 10,000 , The latest who arrived report that they had no trouble with the In dians , and fe\y were seen by them. The warriors are all doubtless con centrated or co-operating in harras- sing the troops in the field. But there are small straggling parties of hostiles around the Hills , beyond doubt. They made a raid on a herd of horses down near Crook City , 12 miles below here , a few days ago , and succeeded iu gettiug away with half a dozen head.

After the reading of the jnuinal , Mr. Bayard said : I am sure the Ben ate and country will be deeply affected by the announcement of the melancholy event of yesterday , the death of our-lute friend and brother Allen T. Caperton , senator from West Virginia. 1 move aa a mark of respect so justly do to the memory of this excellent aud honor able man , that the senate stand ad journed until to-morrow at 11. . Mr. Stevenson said he concurred in what he had said , and moved that a committee of four senators be appointed to accompany the re mains of the deceased to his late residence m West Virginia. Agreed to , and the chair appointed Messrs. Davies , Cooper , Booth aud Hitch cock as such committee. The motion of Mr. Bayard was then agreed to , and the Senate ad journed. - ; - HOUSE. The committee on appropriation * reported back the senate bill appro priating $100,000 for the construc tion of the Washington monument. Parsed with the amendments , one of which increases the amount to $200,000. A message froui the senate an- nouhciug the death of Seuator Cap- rou , of West Virginia , was present ed , whereupon , on motion of Mr. Wilson , the usual resolutions were adopted. Messrs. Wilson , Banks , Luttrell , Douglas , Hardeiiburg , Faulker and Kusson were appointed a committee to accompany the body to j West Virginia , and the house ad journed. The Silver Bill. WASHINGTON , July 27. The house's early adjournment has not only prevented action on the mining committee's silver bill , to-day , hut probably throws it o\er till next weefc , with greatly dimin ished prospects of its passage. The special assignment of to-mor row's session for the consideration of the naval committee's reports on Robesou , and the pendency of the contested election case , as unfinish ed business , together with the fact that to-morrow and Saturday , under the rules , are private bill day- , will , ll Is believed , render unavailing any attempts to call up the silver bill this week On Monday , if not overweighed by the adoption ot Mr. Holman's amendment partially re pealing the specie resumption act , it hus a chance ot passage , under suspension of the rules , as i\lr. Kel ly's similar bill for the revival of the old .silver dollar lacked only seven votes out of two-thirds majority last Monday ; but if it awaits the morn ing hour of Tuesday Mr. Garlield aud other prominent opponents of the measure intend to try and tilli- buster it over until the next morn ing hour , aud so on until the session ends , liiey ara to-day conlideut they can succeed by these tactics in preventing its passage by any vote less than two-thirds this session , and they believe two-thirds cannot be secured. SAN FIJANCISCO , July 27. The ship Santa Clara arrived to day from New York , reports being boarded between the Straights of Lemaise by Mr. Hoar , second mate , and three men , of the British bark Southern Cross , " who were going in a small boat to Uahmoia Mission , a station in Beagle Channel , for as sistance. The Southern Crots was then anchored in Gorce Roads in distress , leaking badly , and only one pump available. The captain was ill , aud the mate in charge of the boat obtained provision * and ammunition from the Santa Clara aud proceeded on his way. The whaling bark Illinois , of this port , was run down in the Arctic ocean by the whale ship Morengo and sunk instantly. All bauds were saved except a seaman , Jacob Win- chell , of Boston. The rest ot the crew were distributed among the fleet. NEW YORK , July 27.
