The wanilering itI the gold-seeker are well illustratedby a letter received at the I lten-iSJot urnal office yesterday frnom Mar-\m'u ier. 01 Eeast \ alnut street,Louisville.

`"I have, or ought to have. abrother living (if hlie is not dead)somlewhere in Montana or the Du-kotus. \Vhen last heard from. in1803, lie was engaged in gold minc-.

letter received from him at nthattimne it was his intention to quit 1that place immtediately and mni-to the utipper parts of the Missouri Iriver, being enticed thither by ru- Imore that gold was to be found in tgreat abundance in that country.

"We directed a letter to his In- 1

dian territory aldress, but havenever received a reply or heard Ifrom him with any certainty forabout twenty-eight years. We sup- cpose hie moved north, locating in athe territory of Montana or Dakota,and if in the forim.r place we hope uto find his residence or addressthrough the assistance of the Jour- onal.

"His name is Peter Kahlkoff; heleft here in 1849 in a company of :gold seekers known probably morewidely than I am aware of, and inspurious parlance as the 'Forty-niners,' by reason of the year in iiwhich they departed, and laterwere distinguished from other min- Iers by the sobriquet of Grey Beards,' Fand I believe it was pretty gen- Ieerally understood, in mining circles iiat least, that every individual in ofthe ganlg was a bachelor and soie- p:what rough at that. fa

"These facts, if seen in your pa-. tiper, might lead to the discovery of ifthe object of our long and anxious disearch." d

If among the "old-tinmers" any fuome can rememnber Peter Kahlkofl;f,ie could do i favor by writing to Js
