ee 4 a Og. Qa _ NevADa Giry ee? FRIDAY MORNING MARCH 10. Mining Matters. ; Since our last review of. the mining situation there has been substantial advancement in the mining interesté of the county. This improvement.isdue in part to the recent storms, but there has also been a renewal of quartz mining interests. In Nevada township the Banner, Pittsburg, Orleans, Manbattan, Pennsylvania and several other quartz ledges, are being worked, and the Ne~ vada Quartz Mining Company is fitting up.after remaining unworked fcr more than three years. The Banner Mine is yielding better than it has for a year, and some very rich rock from the mine has recently _/ been worked at Maltman’s. The Pitts/ burg -is paying ite regular dividends: . and the Pennsylvania is yielding good "returns, The Orleans and Manhattan . companies have both good looking . ~* ledges and are being rapidly developed. Other companies prospecting in the district have good ‘indications of success. ’ Gravel’ mining in this township is very encouraging. The Cement Hill Gravel. Mining Company. is washing With'a good head of water. This isa new enterprise and. alter the present run will niake their first clean up. Gentry & Co., on Oustomah Hill, have their, tunnel and flame completed, and they have just received a large Craig's nozzle of the new style. -In-a-day ort} two this company will commence wash. ing on ground which it has taken over three years toopen and Which pros. pects well. The Manzanita claims are "also being worked as in years past, and are, no doubt, paying well. Quite a large amount of prospecting is being done for gravel, and we shall from time to time be able-to‘note new dis« coveries. ’ In Washington township mining is being started up. Within the past month in the vicinity of . Washington, and on Canyon creek, a number of lo. cations have been made. At Omega we learn the miners are all at work. The Omega Water and Miving Co. is Tunning two sete of diggings with large heads of water, and scme six or -seven other companies have started, or are about ready to start up. The miners at Diamond creek are alec busy and the season promises to be very lively in the township, In Little York nearly all the companies have water and are Washing. The Little York Water and Mining Co. have the best water right in the State, and they are making the advan. . tage tell in the work they are doing. Ia Bloomfield, Bridgeport and Eureka the increase of work among miners is in consequence of the additional supply of water in the mining ditches, ____At Grass Valley the prospecting in gravel still continues, and some excel. lent blue cement has been struck on Alta Hill. as we learn from the Grass Valley Union. The. quartz mines in that district are yielding as usual, as appears by the items published from day to. day in the Union. Rough and Ready appears to be in a fair way to again become renowned as & place of rich mines, At Goshen Hill aud Randolph Flat recent developments have been most encouraging, and owners of gravel mines in that locality are confident of a rich reward for their labor, At Meadow Lake little will be done until the snow is gone, probably in May or June. During last season the Prospect was encouraging, and when the snow melts: prospecting wiit com mence in earnest.CHARITABLE ladies in New York, when getting up fairs, send circulars to gentlemen whom they desire as pairons, informing them that they’ expected to take 96 many tickets, abd 4 Brayscript . are . cabs to die in the transit, write to the comthary, . A NEW Boston notion is: the intro“Quction in the public schools of what i éalled the half tarty rule. The reguimtions adopted by the School Committee require that the pupils shall be in their seats punctually at the hour for commencing school ; but the teachers have added a provision they must be there at the time. A Beston-paper-strongly opposes the innovation, urging smong other objectious, that it is calculated to foster in children the pernicious habit of over-puanctuality, and insisting that punctuality, which is an essential virtue in busy communities, rising from the range of the minor merits to that of the higher virtues, is forfeited as badly by too early attendance as it is by the man who is too late for an appointment. Taking into consideration the constitutional tendency of Bosto~ nians to “go slow,” it does not seem probable that the most rigid enforcement of the objectionable rule is likely to result in sucha universal habit of over-punctuality in. keeping appoint~ . ments as to occasion any serious dex rangement of business, at least during the time of the present generation. _ . THE receipts of the Suez Canal dure. ing the month of December amounted to £32,000, the heaviest return for any month in the year. .The work of deepeniog the canal has been going on without interruption, and it is said that notwithstanding the large dimensions of most of the ships not a-single, accident or grounding occurred. The . Rolla, a passenger and freight screw steamer, has made the passage from Gravesend, to Calcutta by the way of Suez in thirty-five days, exclusive of stoppages for coaling and other purs use of the Suez route has been te divert trade from Bombay to Calcutta, and in China to Hongkong in prefers ence to other perts. The English are building much much larger ships and steamers for the Eastern trade than they were ten years ago. In THE SAND Business.—Some of the Big San Francisco men have gone into the sand business as will be seen by the following from the Grass Val« ley Union: In the. proceedings of the Town Trustees it will be seen that the town has paid the Hope Gravel Mining Company, a San Francisco Incorporated Company which is operating on Alta Hill, the sum of $525. Some of our readers may be curious to know why the town and mining company had dealings. The fact is simply this: The town had need of sand for build. ing purposes and sent to Alta Hill to get the same frum a pile of old tailings. The Hope Gravel Mining Company kept an account ot the number of loada of sand hauled and presented a bill of twenty-five cents a load, How ir OccurrED.—The Fire Mar. shal and others, appointed to examine the Lincoln school building, at Sao Franciaco, have concluded that the fire originated from the hot air flues by which the building was ventilated. Ir is reported that another Chicago Episcopal preacher, the Rev. Dr. Rylance, of the St. James Church bas be~ come dissatisfied with Bishop White. house and the High Church party, and that he will ‘soon withdraw from the Dr. Stephenson, of Hall county, Ga., thinks the diamond fields there surtpass those of Brazil. His children used a stone which he now thinks worth some $500,000, in playing marbles, but lost it six manths ago, CANADA is aghast atan American speculator who enrploys two hundred men fishing for trout in the Dominion. THE Philadelphia Press says if our Congreesman, after a sharp debate, do not embrace their opponents, as French Assemblyman do, they ask each other . to drink, which is just as affectionate. A SYRACUSE jury gave a father $200 damages for the killing of his daughter by a railroad, and aisessed the same company $900 for allowing two bear slence of private gambling houses. . ter was read from the philanthropist, poses. One important result of the . ment.” — , BorTom oF THE OCEAN AN EVEN PLAiN.—The bottom of the North Atlantie Ocean, says Professor Huxley, is one of the wildest and most even plains in the world. If the sea. were driven off,a wagon might be driven all the -way from Valentia on the west coast of Ireland to Trinity Bay in Newfoundland. From Valentia the road would He down hill for about’200 miles, to the point at which the bottom is now covered by 1,700 fathoms of’ sea water. Then would come the central plain, more than a thousand miles wide,the perceptible, though the depth of water upon it now varies from 10,000 to 15,000 feet. PETER CoorPER, whose name must always be handed down through the noble building that he has reared in the cause of education, on completing his 80th year has done another noble act, that should enshrine his name even more closely in the public heart. At the annual celebration of Washington’s birthday, at the Cooper Institute, a letstating that he had bequeathed $150,000 to the Institute, one half of the interest accruing therefrom to be devoted to the formation of a reference and lending library for the use of all classes of workingmen and mechanics of the city.

The probable yield is estimated at 40,000 hogsheads. THE tornado in Arkansas 9 few days ago dida great deal of damage, particularly at Helena, where the loss in property is estimated at $250,000.
