MEETING IN New YoRK-Gen. Taylor. 4
meeting of the friends of Gen. Taylor was held
in New York on Thursday night, at Constitu-
ton Hall, according to previous notice. The
Chair was occupied by Hon. George Folsom,
assisted by number of Vice Presidents, among
whom was John S. Skinner, E.q., formerly Of
this city. The meeting adopted tho following
preamble and resolutions:
Whereas tho recent successes of our arms on
the banks of the Rio Grande, call for the warm
est expressions of national gratitude from the
hearts of the American people, to the brave and
gallant men by whose proves and energy an
enemy greatly superior in point of numbers,
has been compelled to abandon the field, and
seek refuge in flight Therefore,
Resolved, That the ability, patriotism, and
gallantry, SO efficiently displayed by the Com
manding General, ZACHARY TAYLOR, in the
conduct ofthe war upon the threshold OF the
enemy's country, and especially on the memo
rabe fields of Palo Alto, land ReSaca de la Palma
where against fearful odds he gained oVerWhel'
ming victories, deserves the lasting gratitude
| of his felow-ctizens, and entitle him to a dis
tnguished rank among the heroes of his conn-
| try.
Resolved, That whatever rewards may here.
after await the gallant veteran at the hands oil
the People the United States, there are none
above his merits as soldier, a citizen, or man
and that the same enviable qualities which have
led to his triumphant career in the field, will
not less adorn and distinguish the highest civil
station that may DO awarded him.
Resolved, That this meeting acknowledges
with proud satisfaction, the gallant bearing OF
the associates of Taylor, both of officers and
men, whose deeds of successful va!or have shed
such mperlshable glory upon the American
name; nor can we forget the mournful tribute
due to the memory of those who fell in their
country's cause--their names will live, not on
" on the page of history, but in the hearts and
warm affections of their fellow citizens.

The LATE DREADFUL CALAMITY AT QUE
BEG. The Quebec Gazette, noticing the bu-
rial of the victims by the burning ofthe Thea
ire Royal, says:
"From an early hour in the morning till
seven in the evening, funeral professions were
passing through the streets to the different
places of interment. So melancholy sight
has not been beheld in Quebec since the time
of the cholera. At one time there were fifteen
collins in the French Cathedral, waiting for the
last rites of the Church to be said over the mu-
tilated remains contained in them.
At the English burial ground we observed
four clergymen present, three Episcopalian and
one Presbyterian, discharging the last sad du-
ties of their office to members of their respec-
tive flocks. The Wesleyan Methodist minis
ter was Likewise kept buslly engaged during
the afternoon in the performance of a similar
duty. In fact, every religious body in the city,
with one or two exceptions, has suffered more
or less by this desolating calamity.
How TO GET RICH. IT'S tho simplest thing
in the world if any one only has a mind 10 pay
the price demanded for, as the following, from
the Portland Bulletin, will prove to you:
When you purchase an article-no matter
what-a hat, or a pair Of shoes, barrel of flour
or book, look with confounded surprise at the
seller as much as 10 say, sis it possible that you
can put on face to ask as much?" Think a
moment, or appear to, and offer from 10 to Ia
per cent. less remarking that you can purchase
the same you know where, for the price you
name. If you cannot get the article at your
price, by beating down and lying half an hour,
you can at least get off few cents. So much
will be gained.

The TELEGRAPH MADE TO TALK. The
Charleston Courier contains notice of ar in
vention, by DR.. Hume, one of the Professors
in the CITADEL Academy whereby the Magnetic
Telegraph may be made to speak as we'll as
,orits. How this result is effected, the notice
does not state; but gives the following sketch
Of what the invention actually accomplishes:
"The Russian telegraph is alleged to be ca
pabe of expressing ten different sounds by ten
wires. The Charleston telegraph expresses 2
sounds by wires, and may be made to express
the &c sounds composing the alphabet, by 81
wires, but this is unnecessary, for if sufficient
number OF distinct sounds can be expressed by
fewer wires to make an Ineligible language
the object is accomplished. The difference
between this telegraph and Morses consists in
the substitution OF sounds for marks, and great
er simplicity. 1t is distinctly audible in a
large room, and any, who will take the trouble
TO learn it's language, may hear its news as
fast as il is told at the other end.n
The CHOLERA IN CANADA. The Montreal
Herald says that tho report Of a case of Asiatic
Cholera in Quebec has not been confirmed, but
cases of ordinary Cholera, always yielded to
proper treatment, had been prevalent in the
country. Still the Montreal Herald thinks il
necessary to call on the public authorities to
keep the city clean ard be prepared for any ex-
igency. The Cholera this year has made its
appearance in Persia, has crossed the Russian
boundary to nilin, has crossed the Volga, and is
about 1900 miles from St. Petersburgh. 1t APP
peared in Persia in 1881, and reached st. Pet
ersburgh in July, and England in October, and
this country in 1882. In France, out of thirty
three millions, only 100, 900 died, and if it does
reach here this season, Of which there is no APP
pearance, it may be in very modified shape.

The produce Of the mines Of Mexico is
quite as large, or larger now, than at any
other period, taking an average Of ten
years, but nothing So profitable to the
proprelors, owing TO the immense invest
menIs IN machinery, and the greater la.
Dor of raising the ores now compared
with the rude and inexpensive machinery
heretofore used, and the comparatively
small labor Of taking out the ores. The
company which now owns the great mine
of Rael del Monte have, in the last few
years expended, in machinery and other
ways, several millions of dollars. The
shaft Of that mine is nearly thousand
yards deep. Baron Humboldt, gives the
gross produce Of the mines of Mexico,
from 1890 to 1903, both years inclusive,
as amounting 10 ST. 35S 1852, 020-aboui
twelve millions OF dollars per annum.

year 1896, S25, 500. The produce
Of the year 1904 he states at S24 600 900.

for lew years prior TO 1910, at S24 ,OOO,-

temptation to do so from the high duty
OF six per cent on expectation, caused

this was extensively practlsed, was known
to every one in Mexico. TO form any
