The Mining and Seientiiie Dress,
a
Conpiimentary.—The Stockton Independent, in acknowledging the reception of » copy
of the hiennial school report of our present
worthy Superintendent of Public Instroction,
suggests that the document should he placed
in the hands of each hoard of school trustees,
and every teacher throughout the State. The
same paper further takes the opportunity to
pay the following well deserved compliment to
that officer :
We think Superintendent Swett is proving
himself a very diligent, intelligent and earnest
friend of popular education—in fact, one of the
leading benefactors of this coast—and it is not
exactly the thing to hide his light onder a
hushel hy stioting the cireulation of his report.

Tue Srarun or Linconn.—The artist, Mr. P.
Mezzara, is husily engaged in perfecting his
statue of Lincolu, which was exhibited at the
late Fair of the Mechanies’ Institute, in this
city. The finishing tonches will all be completed by the end ‘of the present month. It is
to he placed upon » proper pedestal in front of
the Lincoln School House, where the foundation has already heen prepared. We understand it will be nncovered to the public on the
15th of April, the anniversary of the assasination of the great and good man, whose memory
it is designed to perpetuate. The artist has
allowed the statue to he placed there fora
mere nominal sum—its cost. and the necessary
expenses of mounting it. The cost has heen
defrayed by subscription, and the statue is the
first raised in the country to the memory of onr
martyred President.

THE EXCELSIOR

The relative grinding capacities of “The Excelsior” Grinder
and Amalgamator, of the Flat Bottomed Pan, and of the Conical
Pan when properly constructed, are respectively 177, 98 and 110.
That is, ihe respective mullers heing of the same diameter,
2 Y same weight, same hardness, and running at the same velocity
aes dF “The Excelsior Grinder and Amalgamator” will reduce one hundred and seventy-seven tons of ore, the Flat Bottomed Pan ninetyeight tons, and the Conical Pan one hundred aud ten tons to the
same degree of fineness in the same time.
The wear to the Shoes and Dies at their grinding surfaces in the
Excelsior Grinder and Amalgamator, is perfectly uniform, thus
securing evenness of reduction to the pulp, as well as steadiness
= of motion to the muller.
has been attained in no other than that of the Tractory form—nor
Another property of excellence in this machine is that the metal
or substance to he amalgamated passes direct from the grinding
surfaces into the eee
hecoming coated with any foreign substances, after having been
hurnished. It is truthfully said “that the Tractory-formed Pan
as a Grinder has no equal, and as an Amalgamator no superior.”
As a whole, it is far superior to any other pan in use.
