Gold mining appears to be making some progress in the state of Virginia, where its prosecution has been attended in many instances with considerable success. As affording an idea of the mode of working adopted, we give the substance of a statement of de results obtained from the operations carried on during the last seven weeks at the Culpeper o,ld Mines, on the Rapid Ann River, seventeen miles from Prods rieksburgh. The manager is working twelve stamp heads and two Chili** to lls with twenty-four moo, lb. mostly blacks, at a weekly expense of 120 dole., to which 30 dole. may be added for wear and tsar of 60., 'machinery, and other incidentals, so that the entire t o aittlay is 150 dole. per week, making 1,050 41116. in ell u the cost of seven weeks' work- is -14:FECT HEALTH is INVAJALABLY I. *Oust *obi" Ississoirres sr lasts IhnensiMl AAM Om ibr t.rnli iseSsimes Asir lbw% GI Piss. ram Dn.

Rumours were current in the Stock Exchange yea terdsy to the effeet, that a member of the house, who fad been speculating fur the rise, was unable to meet his liabilities arising out of the settling of the Consul account; but, as the amount at issue was understood to be very trifling, we refrained, from motive* of delicacy, from alluding to the subject, as it not infrequently happens that parties who may be placed in this unfortunate position are enabled to procure the MIMI of meeting the claims upon them subsequent to the close of the market, thus obviating the necessity of exposure. This morning, however, the party in question, Mr. F. A. Dodd, has been for mally declared a defaulter. To this untoward affair may in part be attributed the decline of I that ensued yesterday afternoon in Consols, which closed at 96f r to 1 for money, an? 981 to /, for the 11th of September • but it may be observed that rather more impor tance appears to have been attached to the affair than the trifling amount involved would appear to warrant, for, though the account open to the defaultea's name amounted in the aggregate to the sum of about 100,0001., still the entire differenoes which he to un able to liquidate are understood to be below 1,0001. Of this amount, too, 9001. will be recoverable from his three sureties, who are bound in the sum ofl 30W. each, it being a law of the Stock Exchange that every member, till he has been in the house for the period of two Tears complete (which Mr. Dodd has not), shall provide security to the amount specified. The loss to the members will consequently be reduced to a mere fraction, or will probably be covered SS Do. _3O eharco 100 Do. Dian. and Dirty ... 100 Do.C4.ns. B. kD. Sp. C.

Lashing further to the extensive arrangements new made ter the Sunday distribution of newspapers, and to others waiting the decision of this question, as also to the means now had to special mensengers, and to the ecenmay el laborer in the organised anangements of the Post-offin we are not asittafied Wt the general e ff ect of the measure Would be a dieaftsish finaday labour. The Sunday distribution of newspapers, refereed to above, avian of course from the fact that so many of the weekly pipers, whether is London or the country, an published on the Saturday. Aced the refusal of the Post-odes to de liver these journals as usual, has been felt by both proprie tors and renders as a great hardship. Foe further information as to the ants of the recent estop, we must refer to the reports of the cavemen. II Aria, regard to ahem various reasons, we inesider the res-riction estahlishod by the recent order net only as inex pedient, but Joannal oar ita main purpose. In exercising a niesepoly of postal entwine., the go veroment, as it appears to us, takes upon itself the duty of forwarding the public correspondence without any delay, which may not be demanded by nuns of the most cogent eaten. We need not point oat that the poet-ofitee is net the only breath of the public envies in which a aortal& amount of Sunday labour is required ; and it may be added, that the general practice of delivering end deepatehing letters on the Sunday is all parts of the United Kingdom, except London (including even Dellis and idinbergh), dates back, eo tar as we eve aware, from this first regular establishment of a post-office in this kingdom, while the non-delivery of letters iu London on the seas day appean have an equally early origin. With a view, therefore, of making a redaction in the amount of Sunday Ishtar in the Poet-office, es it minted immediately Ireton the 23rd of June lest, without sees. plotoly patting as nil to the collection said delivery of titters and otter Poet office packets on Sands)*, we recom mend the adoption of the following arnaposesits With regard to the London Post-office, we think that the system which was la torn at the time specified, and which has not been Aided ty the recent order, shoind be con tiered. With regard to the peoviseial poet-offiNii, we yesommand that a delivery of letters as the Senday should be resumed, subject to the following methadone, many of whisk have been sanctioned by the previous practice of the deportment : 1. That there be 'sly one delivery and one stallestime. 2. That the delivery be made at nett • time es shall are interfere with the hours of divine servioe, especially of morning Dery ert. 3. That this delivery be mule either by letter carriers or at the window of the Post-c Mee, according to the practice previously pursued on Sundays in each plow. In Edin burgh, Glasgow, and most other towns in Scotland, it has been the practise to deliver letters only at the window on Sunday. The inhabitants of these towns have become ha bituated to the arrangement, and we do not, therefore, advise Its discontinuance ; but we do rot propose its ex tension to other riling, when each a mete has sayer been introduced, because it affords les, oonveidence sad semerrity to the public, while it produces no diminution of Benda; labour. 4. That, ae far as possible, every post-office be closed on • Sunday at 10 a.m. for the remainder of the day, with the anyway exceptions seising !rem the late snivels of mane which hiss heretofore existed. 5. That no money manors for inland letters be received at a post-office on • Sunday; and that no such letting be received except such as ere stamped or unpaid. 6. That whenever the letters, which were delivered on the Sunday miming, reach their destination by 8 o'clock on Saturday night (which is the are in some of the more re mote parts of the kingdom), the delivery be made the oases night instead of on the Sunday morning. 7. Tent where the duties era such as to prevent the rend letter-carrier from attending divine serene, an arrangement be made for presiding a substitute at least on the alternate Sundays. We apprehend that the additional cost Weaned by this arrangement would be josided by the importsuos of its object. 8. That is retaining a Sunday delivery of letters in a rural district the Postmaster. General be guided by the pre valent feeling of the locality ; and that where the prevalent feeling of the district is opposed to such delivery, the Post master-General, alter sa t yfif himself of the fact, take the requides steps for suspending it. This priadple has eireedy hem sated on to a considerable extent by the de. L The Postmaster-General, in the years 1848 and 549, withdrew no less than 404 Sunday torsi posts, 320 wholly and 84 partially. In some instonecs, however, th e %habitants, finding the withdrawal more inconvenient than they anticipated, subsequently requested that the post might be restored, which was aceordingly dose. 9. That an option be afforded to every householder to sus pend the Sunday delivery of letters at his how, oa his written application to tee local post-office. It would be ne cessary that this permission should be guarded by proper revelation of the department, in order to prevent the in tionvesiene which would arise from frogman *images. 10. That the smottemsuts already seeds by the Pc it master General for the whhdrawal on the Palsy of *com paratively useless mails be motioned upon the same prin ciples whisk have been 'beady adopted, and that they be rendered es eompline es pendble.
