The American Journal.of Mining, after giving a table showing the revenue’ deemitiénts, concludes by saying: “Ex“ cept in those. cases. in which-the State . actually carries on mining operations, modern nations have abandoned the notion oft their mines to any con: “extent for purposes of reve“awe.” The taxes imposed are only sufficient to cover theexpense of a thorough . and efficient administration of the min: ing laws; in the intere’t of the whole . ag present, Prosperity. There is a lese . . son for us in this concurrent testimony of the nations of the world to the true policy of government in its relations “with mining industry. No: nation; 6x-1 copt Mexico, continues, in spite of the ngs of history, to regard mining as tlie lawful prey of the State. That. in some countries the State still mines ‘on its own account is indeed true ; but the wisdom, of such: mcoutse is more : than doubtful ; and » under Democratic institutions, it is better that the expenses of government should be borne, not by governmental farming or mining pr monopolies-f trade, but -by the equitable distribution of its bur. dens upon the free and untrammeled industry of the people.” THE Mucuanics’ InstiTUTE.—We a received from A, 8.

Nuws Trems.—From the Union of yesterday we condense the following : Both Houses of Congress have decided to adjourn on the 10th of April. The Senate Railway Committee propose to leave the question whore each road shall end to the President, and also su ts the appointment of disinterested civilians to determine where the toads ‘dre first class, and whether Longstreet has been confirmed — lector of the Port of ‘New Orleans, _ ~~ Aétion on the reconstraction of Texas Congress. Motley, the historian; has been nominated and will undoubtedly be confirmed Minister to England. Andy has been. making another speech in which he declares he will spend the balance of ‘his life in trying to remove the obloquy which his enemies have thrown upon him. , Alabama claims made out against England amount to $13,000,000. ONE oyster establishment in Baltimore packs twenty thousand cans daily which is mu ‘the can-can a+ a fearful rate. —NtaNGULAR visiting cards are Wie thing now. . these bodies. }and religious paintings. All classes arch ; second the Consistory ; third the Prastenic.” The Priesthood is divided into two classes, the regular and the secular priests. The’ Consistory is an administrative and judiciary court, the Bishop exercising absolute control over it. There is supposed to: be a Consis-. tory for évery 6000 souls, consisting of the pastor and from eight to fourteen . elders, -The Prastenic. exists in most of the district towns. The Superior-of the most important convent is usually at its head, and archpriests ahd some ordinary priests are—appointed.to-sit in Infractions of discipline are judged and punished bythem. It is only in cases of thefts committed by members of the superior clergy, that the Bishop refers the matter to the Holy Synod. Ecclesiastical delinquencies among the priests are judged by the civil courts. When priests are thus ‘tried-and-convicted; the able bodied men are sént to the army, the less vigorous to.the colonies. Despotism is the basis of ecclesiastical as well as of . . civil authority in Russia. Each bishop is a despot in his diocese; each priest a petty tyrant in his parish. All ‘the higher orders are forbidden to marry.— The lower orders of priests may marry once, but that must occur before ordination, otherwise it is forbidden them. “xa Hence the proverb, “Happy as apriest's wife,” from the good care the priests tuke of their consorts,” “The services of the Church mostly t ef ceremonial observances ; preaching and the reading of Scriptures form but a small part of them,~Here the choirs may be pronounced very*good for so small a jumbled out in the old Salvanic guage, in a hurried and slovenly manner; The Miserere nobis is in many instances repeated from 10 to 40 times in succession. The Greek Church condemns the use of images, yet its members pay idolatrous homage to relics prostrate themselves -before,; and pray to them with devout fervor, the more superstitious believing them capable of working miracles. No trade in relics is openly permitted, though the fragment ofa saint’s garment or perhaps a chunk off his toe would fetch a good price.— The Russian Church observes the ceremony of sacrament, confession and ab~ solution, and money will purchase any quantity ofindulgences. The sanctuary contains the tabernacle over the altar, the general interior closely resembling in structure the Jewish synagogues,— It is divided into three parts—the sanctuary, the parvise or, space in front of the sanctuary, and the nave, 'The Gospel, the cross and the chalice, together with the missal, which is not a conseerated book, remain’ upon the altar— The batictuary is separated from’ the ‘nave by the royal gate, with two later. , al doors and a suspended curtain. A platform, raised slightly above the bod y of the church, called the ambers, serves as a pulpit, and services are conducted from it and not from the altar, There are fifteen communjon loaves, shaped like balls, one joined to the other. One loaf is the loaf of Christ, two of the Virgin Mary, three of the Saints, four for the living, and five of the dead.— These_unlucky loaves are mutilated in every possible manner. Pieces pulled from them go through various destinations in the progress of the communion service. A profusion of candlesis used in all the services, and-the Domine Saleum is eternally repeated through the celebration of mass. Saint days occur too frequently for profit and_conve . nience. There are not Yéss than 180 in A the calendar of the Russian Greek . : Charch and.all strictly observed.

Over the altar an immense chandelier, studded tinsel arrangements with brilJiant magnificience. The’ rings of bride dtd’ salver’ are carried before them, themdecked with a garland. The priest then leads the pair three times around the altar, and at the completion of each round it is the bride’s privilege to withdraw the engagement. Each one then places on the other's fing the ring.— Next elaborate and elegant crowns of crimson velvet and hrilliants are held over the heads of each by groomsmen’ while a further and formal plighting . Soe of both takes~place: After ‘Tepoating . their promises and .vows, each kiss the Bible, the cross and the crown, and drink of wine from the same-cup times each.

Yestetday afternoon, as Joseph Perrin, of Forest Springs, was driving his buggy into town, the king bolt broke near the Gold Hill ‘mill, at which the horse became frightened,and started up Mill street, taking along the fore wheels of the buggy. He finally . vada came in. contact with Finnie’s team, when he was stepped, but the collision made a smash up of tlie wheels, Neither Mr. ‘Perrin ‘or the horse sustained any injury to speak of, CALIFORNIA NurmMiG.—We saw says the Grass Valley Union of Sunday, a branch of a tree containing some half . ! dozen of the so-called California nutmegs. The foliage of the tree bears a striking-resemblance to cedar, and to that family it evidently belongs. There is no probability that. the nutmegs borne by this mountain tree will supers cede those of East.
