Show Govoruor Axtell at Blugliain. Binuiiam, June t), LMitors UcimU : The poiiple of this canon woro fa-vorod fa-vorod yesterday with a vigit from Governor AxteJI. Ho arrived on tho morning train, and after dinner, at Griffins' hotel, accompanied by several sev-eral geutleiuen, ho took horso and viaitel sevenvl of tho prominent mine along the lino of Bingham cafion. Ke turning by way of Bear gulch, he visitcvl tho Kevero and Yosemit mines, where ho was respectively entertained en-tertained by Mr. Randall and Mr. May. In the evening rjuile a largo congregation withered at the Mstho- dii.t church, and the governor nuule a very spiritexl and ellective address, which waa listened to with deep interest, in-terest, and elicited at limes great outbursts out-bursts of applause. Alter the cloae of the governor's speech, the audience were in humor for farther speech-making, speech-making, and short addresses were mad by Messrs. Boitghion, Lyon and Cooper, 'x he meeting was a decidixl success, and will contribute very much towards giving a new spirit "to our mining inieretLs. Tbe simple, hearty cheerfulness of the governor has produced a very pleasant effect upon the community. We are in hoiva that the good governor's gov-ernor's visit will soon be repeated. I'pto tho present time there has leen but little revival of our mining inter-. ts. Two or three of our leading mines will re-commence operations about the middle of next month, when we may exnect a reneral revival throughout tho whole camp. The narrow gaugo road it completed up to the Spanish mine, and train are running daily with very satisfactory load of ore for the smelters. I had proceeded thus far with mv letter when the morning mail brought the intelligence that Governor AxtWl has been appointed to New Mexico. I regret very much that a longer trial of his peace policy has not been permitted; per-mitted; and hope and tntst that his successor will be enabled to steer the bark of state or territory between Soylla and Cuarybdisof I'tah.
