Sir, under the ne\nOBssity of once more requesting the\nfavor of a reply to my question:\n''What is the attitude end purpose of\nthe government you represent touching the enforcement of the Sunday\nLaw* in this pan of the province;\"\nand I Int: to assure you that the\nAttSWer Will receive the most careful\nattention as a statement Of policy .Hid\nprinciple.\n1 am, sir,\nfours respectfully,\n(i. A Love.\nOne brief, cum deliverance, in lieu\nOfa proper answer, was considered\nsufficient condecension by th.* alxive\nofficial and so no further communication has been received.\nNow, Mr. Editor,.! is not ourput*-\npose to inflict upon yen a lengthy\ndissertation upon the subject of Sunday observance, but would make\nbrief observations upon two points;\nA sacred 8unday has come to be\none of the established institutions of\nour llritish law, and unlejs there is\nsome exceptional reason to be given\nfor its non-enforcement we naturally\nexpect to see it enforced. We know\nof no such exceptional reason holding\nhere. On the contrary we believe\nthat in a mining country, with its\nrush ot business and iis excessive\ntoil, there is every reason from a\npurely physical as well as religious\nBUndpo.nl why the day of rest should\nbe observed. One of the first principles of' OUT I Yeator's law s-viiis to\nbe the law of rest, one seventh ot the\ntime\nWe believe that law to be written\nplainly in every physical constitution\nas well as definitely stated in the\nMosaic Decalogue; and we as (Irmly\nbelieve that in the record of each\nlite in the future unfolded, it will be\nfound that th*' law has been directly\nor indirectly. It not in health, then\nin sickness as some of our miners\nknowby exj\ufffd\ufffderieiicc after months of\nunbroken labor: If not in life then\nby the Cutting Off Of life.\nNature's laws must and shall QC\nobserved no matter what man's laws\nmay be\nis it no! time we roCOgnute these\nthings, if we wish to establish con\nditions favorable to the building up\nof good communities in this country.\nThere is a God in all life and the\nsooner we invoke his blessing in this\nway the better for us as individuals\nand for our country.\n2nd. A word to this government\nand its officials:\nThe Province in which we live\nseems to have earned the proud dis\ntinctiou of being easily the most cor\nrapt and weakest in provincial gov\neminent, of any In our Confederation. I\nCertainly, if its utter disregard tor1\nthe letter or the spirit of the law we\nhave referred to be any criterion it\nhas honestly earned this reputation.\nNot simply in this, however. Almost\nevery law formed upon righteous,\nmoral principles has been ignored or\nits violation winked at.\nIn spite of executive inefficiency\nthe \"laws touching life and property\nhave been, partly by the force of\noverwhelming public sentiment,fairly\nwell enforced bun most other things\nhave been le4.t to take care ot themselves. Saloons stand open day and\nnight, tree of access by some door.\nSunday and all.\nBrothels and gambling dives reap\ncontiuuous harvests with almost\nequal publicity.\nIf an occasional check is put on\nthese thing-, it is generally through\nthe energy nf trie local Magistracy\nrather than by the authority ofthe\ngovernment offic'als.\nShame on those iu authoritv who\nare well understood to wink at all\nthese forms of corruption, and to\ndirect their constabulary to do the\nname\nIt speaks well for the purity and\nrectitude ot our British laws, when\neven among such conditions, and\nwhen placed so largely at the mercy\nol such unprincipled men, these laws\nolaim a measure of respect.\nOf this our official called Gold\nCommissioner- a most anomalous title,\nit might as well be Saloon Commissioner we have little to say. In our\nletter we referred to his \"honorably\"\nrepresenting his government. It is\nbetter to l>e courteous where you can,\nyet sjter our description of that government it will not seem so burdensome with courtesy. Personally we\ndo not know much against this man,\nSome who know his work better\nthink that it is the spirit of lib fossilized autocracy which has helped to\nbring his government into such disgusting repute. It is probable how\never that he is simply a part ofa bad\nmachine and mav be personally inclined Ui be considered a fine official.\nWe sincerely hope t'\ufffd\ufffdat his successor may be a better man and attend\nto the enforcement of the laws so\nflagrantly and openly disregarded.

THE 1'WSTIUvVK.\nGOLD IN DEADWOOD\nBoulders and Peaks That run\nRich in Golden Ores\nSTRANGE UNDERGROUND\nCAVE.\nlVadwoud, S. I). -Inside the city\nlimits, within sight of tlte F.Ik horn\nroandbostse. there has been made an\ninteresting discovery, being ore of\nthe same character as so much found\nof late in the limestone belt, and run-\ning 1132 to the ton. Myrick and Anderson while looking over an immense\nboulder in that part ot the town, conceived the idea that it might Ik* rich\nin gold, and took specimens to an as-\nsayer, which returned gold to the\namount given above. The boulder\nweighs about ;'*-) tons. Samples have\nl>een sent to smelters heiv'J and to\nAurora. 111., and Argentine. Kan. In\nthe immediate vicinity an Immense\nlimestone peak towers high into the\nair hundreds of feet above the stir\nrounding country, and this on assays\nis looked for to be ot the same character. The section has been alive for\na day or two with prospectors seeking\nclaims. Two men, in developing\ntheir claims, found what appears to\nhe a fissure ve;n. the ledge matter\nlieing identical with of Cripple Creek.\nFloat rock from the surface of the\nclaims, outside ot the original discovery, assays from &*\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd to 38.'* to tlie ton\nin gold.\nIn the new discoveries in the viein\nity ol this city for the past few weeks\nthere has been so much conflicting\nclaim locating that owners are obliged to patrol their claims with guns.\nThere has been very little claim\njumping so far. but probably only because of this patrol and the wholesome\nfear of trouble. Men ignorant ol\nmining laws from regions where tnin-\ntag locations have never been beard\nof go in and stake oft' ground \"vithout\nlooking for other stakes, and there is\nsure to be the utmost trouble in finding adjusting lines.\nOn the north of Oak Flat gulch\nthere is an immense limestone ledge\nthat has bulged up from below, and\nseveral ore crevices are traceable\nacross it by huge Ixxilders that look\nlike mere limestone, but prove, on be*\ning broken open to be a fair grade of\nore. (>n the south side the formation\nis abruptly broken away, leaving a\n20-foot cliff that essays from 119.*U a\ntOO up. It is beside a road that has\nWen in use tor 20 years.\nA i*eculiar find Was made a ten\ndays ago at Redtern station on the is.\n-v. M. road, and it is i\\ puzzle to all\nmining men who have seen it Ic is\na piece ot metallic iron highly Indrnst*\n\ufffd\ufffd\"1 with g<\ufffd\ufffdld on one side. It seems\nto be a piece of oaktised iron, but on\nexaininatii.il is -a-und tn be pure iron,\nand the gold is bright and clean,\nwith probably fS north in Bight \"ii\nthe surface.\nA number of eaves have been met\nin tin* Bagged Top district, among\nthe latest being one found In a Mast\nat the liallarat group, where a* the\nbottom ol a 25 foot shaft a cave was\nopened which has beet) explored for\nBo feet iu length sndSOfeet in width.\nIts floor was covered with a white,\n-now-like dust. Further examination\nlias not yet Wen made, but bv the\nlight of a candle the sides an- seen to\nhe broken by numerous small crevices\nthat seem to open into other large\ncaverns. The air is -**ond but without\nany spparent ventilation, snd the\nowners are preparing to make exten\nBive explorations.\nDevelopment at Ragged Top arc\nstopped neither by cold nor the greed\nof town lot Bpecnfators. The wee!c I y\nshipments from the camp arc s'eadilv\nirrowing and tbe value ofthe ore sent\nootit estimated at about WO to the\nton, of which B dooen cat load*, are\nnow shipped weekly. EkMM ore has\nbeen found at the bottom ot a shaft on\nthe Dacy that is said to run Up to\n160,000 to the ton It is a close-\ngrained, dark rock, and undoubtedly\nvery rich though not the exact forma\ntiou is at hand.\nThe capacity ofthe Kildoiianchl >i-\nination null Is to be enlarged and by\nspring it will bfl able to handle nearly twice as much ore as now.
