The Daily & “SUNDAY, JULY 15,.1866. —_— " Tae Mesbow. Lake Distaicr.—In ‘an article published inthe TRANSCRIPT ‘several days ago, upon the subject of “Speculating and Prospecting” in mines, we tJbk occasion to refer te the Meadow Lake District. Our remarks the Sun construe into a manifestation of jealousy, and besides misceostruing our language, accuses us of misrepresentation. We think the Sun ig unnecessarily sensitive, and that. we were warranted by the fucts in our statement.— '¥tis well known that few of the mining . claime located in the new district have been sufficiently worked to test their yad. ue, and also that thousards of feet are in. the market. We were led to this conclu-' ‘sion from the steck quotations which were for several weeks published in the Sun.— The prices “‘asked” and the “‘bids’’ exhibited, show an anxiety’ for speculation which is not creditable. If the Sun desires, -we wan quote from the preceedings of the Stock Board to éastain us. A list of claims were daily called, long enough to make the Pres-. ident hoarse. It is also well known that feet in Meadow Lake claimz, upon which only n little top scratching bas been done, have ‘eéon in the Virginia market ever since the aew District was discovered. If any one believes that the spirit of speculation is not . far more rife in Meadow Lake than the disposition to prospect, let them lvok atthe advortising columns of the Sun and see the anaeuncements of brokers, and then see the umber of old Virgivia men who live by speculation entirely. The Sun asserts that not a dozen companies have been incorporated. To prove this, why did'nt the editur refer to the teurth page of his paper, where some twenty advertisements of mining corporations may be found. It matters httle whether they are incorporated or not.— Speculation goes on all the sume We would have it understood that -we are not Gnding fault with the District, but simply making these statements for the purpose of. showing the error of the Sun ia accusing us of misrepresentation. We take equal 1nterest in the development of all parts of the county and if the editur of the.Sun will take the trouble to inquire, he will find that we have done our share for the development of the Meadow Lake mines. The evils of speculation spoken of in the article to which the Sun takes exception, had no refference specially to Meadow Lake, but we endeavored to show that any speculative value given to mines, tended to the benefit of a few individuals, while it was the curse ofthe country, and that wealth was addéd aud resources developed only by thorough prospecting. To ‘substantiate this we alluded to the past in this county and Washve, and to the spirit now manifest in the new ' District. Our object is to add to the real wealth of the county and the State, as far as we can, and while we are always ready to give credit for the good mines opened, we are ulse ready to point out the faults and detects in the system of werking them. The District is undoubtedly one of the richest mining localities on the coast. ‘There is no other place where the prospect is so flattering. The mines, in order to be thervughly worked, must have “cup)tal, and this can only be secured after they are developed by labor. ‘That some companies wre hard ut work, aud sume guld is being taken out “is true, but that many have valy been worked enough to hold thew aud ure now in the warket “for sale” is equal'y true. We hope tu see a population of 6,0UuU aut Meadow Lake ina year, and we believe it will sustain such w population if the miners will open their wines thorvughly.

He noticed with a sneer that at tertain times his guide, whatever obstacles might-arise, put them all aside, and kneeling on the burning sands, called on his God. ee Day after day passed, and still the Araby never failed, till »t last one evening the philosopher, when he arose from his knees, asked him witha cantemptuous smile, “how do you know thereisa God?” The guide fixed his burning eye onthe scoffer for a moment in wonder, and then said, solemnly, “how do J know that there is a God? How did I know thata man and a camel passed my hut last night in the darkness? = Waa it not by the privt of his foot in the sand? Even so,” and he. pointed to the sua, whose last rays were flashing over the lonely desert, “that footprint isnot that of man!” SecreTary Harvwan’s letter to the serenaders, reminds the Detroit Post of two buys who once dug for a woodehuck, without knowing the animal was at home. Af. ter digging away without achieving any result, one of the lnds thrust hie arm down the hole, when the wondechuck seized hisfinger and bit it to the bene, eliciting a yell that would have dene honor te aun Indian warrior ‘“What’s the matter, Joe?” said Jim. “Thunder and lightning !”returned Joe, flourishing his mutilaied member vigorously, “he’s there!” A Toven Srory.—A “Confederate offi cer” who is writing some reminisernces of our warin Blackweud's Magazine, has told some pretty large stories, but nove quite equal to this : A Confederate soldier fell during the progress of a battles On examining him it waa found that a Yankeg: bullet had struck hit in the middle of the forehead, and he was regarded as killed outright; but to the officers surprise he found hima few hours later fighting again.
