.11 NEW SILI'ER MLNE.

ZANZPVILLE, Jrxr 5. We received tile following
account of a silver mine a few days since from a gen-
tleman in Peru, Huron county, Ohio. It appears that
the prospect was considered good enough to venture
an experiment, and who knows be: Peru in 011'.o,
may rrove as celebrated a place for money as Peru in
Sundt America. _ _ _

A silver mine (supposed to be very valuable) has
lately been discovered in this count•, in the township
of Itid,:eseld, about five miles north west of the new
county seat. It lies on the bank of the Huron river,
about fourteen miles from its mouth, on the premises
of Jabez F. Irony and Martin Loudon Slago. It
was first discovered by Mr. Daniel Page, a respectable
citizen of this place. They have since forme► a
large company, and selected a committee consisting of
three gentlemen of candor and respectability, who.
after mature deliberation, deemed it a matter of the
utmost importance, and therefore have made every ex-
ertion in their power to hasten a speedy excavation
in hopes to realize the benefits arising therefrom.
They have now sunk about thirty feet below the sor•
face, and have twenty feet further to dig before they
find the hidden treasure; they have al►eady found se-
veral large veins, which (upon trial) appear to he rich
silver ore—and, notwithstanding the general cry
against silver mines by the ignorant, the proprietors
of this mine have the fullest confidence of Its value,
and feel in hopes that it will prove a complete antidote
against hard times."—(Alexasdria Herald.)
