.Ns,c Mineral Discoperies--A letter from Wash
ington county, Of recent date informs us of new
and very Aattering discoveries of mineral ore in
that county. Last week a mine was opened by
Galloway, Adams and Breckenridge, from which
they are taking from two to three thousand pounds
of ore per day. The land is owned by Francis ].
Smith and t. S. White, near what is known as
Keys Diggings.
Another mine was opened not long since, by Mr..
John Owens, jr, out of which nearly 10000 pounds
of mineral were taken in eighteen days. The
miners are now sinking new hole, from which an
equally large amount of may be taken. The
mineral is found in caves aud channels, but mostly
in caves under the hard rock. These mines, we
undertake to say, will be found quite profitable,
and equally certain the placers of California;
and they can be worked without having to travel
two or three thousand miles, over rough country,
and exposed to all sorts of difficulties, at the cos
of many hundreds of dollars.--St. Louis Repub

The cakes remain sweet and fresh for long time,
and are soluble in warm water Another process u.s. to
heat the sweetened milk nearly to the boiling point,
and before comes cold TO curdle it by rennet OF

and by strong pressure after washing in cold water,
il is obtained free from adherng water. The whey
is to be evaporated to dryness. The curd, placed
