Mexico.—The last political and financial
news from this Republic is satisfactory,
Our correspondeuts inform ns thatthe country throughout is in a pacific state; that
Senor Romero, Minister of the Treasury,
has informed several mine owners that Con:
gress would next session (Octoher) pass a
hill, allowing the export of gold and harsilver. Government had reduced the national
dues 3 per cent., and those on mines 1%
per cent, There was a general desire ang
conviction among three-fourths of the mem—
hers in Congress for carrying out free trade
principles. Mr. Romero’s long residence
at Washington as Minister Plenipotentiary
was considered a most favorahle circum:
stance for supporting those views, as he
himself is a great advocate of free trade.
Mr. Romero had likewise informed foreign
mine owners that overything would he done
to favor their interests, and that his Goy
ernment would do everything to induce
foreign capitalists to enter into mining and
other speculations, by passing in Congress
many measures for the special protection of
mining and other branches of industry. A
hill had heen also passed in Congress for
the suppression of highway robhery, and
for establishing martial la-v in all the proviners, hy which minor authorities could at
once proceed to judge and couvict within
48 hours, and apply capital punishment,
We may here call attention to the circular
published in this day’s Jow-nal of the New
British Mining Agency, that has heen estahlished in the city of Mexico by Mr,
Stewart Auld, who is so well knownin connection with mineral industry. — London
Mining Journal.
New Principie in Concentration—Dry
Mzrrop.—A patent has been obtained in
Washington and Ottawa, hy S. T. Pearce,
the Superintendent of the Buckingham
Plumhago Works, Canada, for a new dry
method of concentrating all kinds of ore,
hy the employment of centrifugal force in
connection with graduated receivers; doing”
away with the use of water, hy which so
mnch minetal is now lost. It is now claimed
that ore separation is done hy this method
by mechanical means alone, without the
employment of manual lahor, and that it is
as simple as the hilling of grain.
