TO THE PUBLIC.

The tracts embraced in the above proclamation
of the President comprise all the residue of the
lead mines yet to be brought into market south
of the Wisconsin river They cover those mines
(partcularly the portion situated in Iinois) work
ed under former leases from the Government which
had not expired at the date of the sale of the ada
cent mines and therefore possess the advantage of
being prepared for immediate operations, without
mourning the increased expenses incidental to
opening new mines, and most of them are believed
TO be very productive. They are all more or less
conveniently situated in reference TO the navigabe
rivers and other cheap means of transportation of
their products to ST. Louis and in the midst of
country yielding abundantly all the agricultural
products of the latitude in which they located.

Cool The HopkinsviIle Rifle gives
the following account of a shooting
match between Mr. Davis and Mr..
Johnson:
The two gentlemen had difficulty,
at the close Of which Johnson made re-
marks derogatory to the courage ofDa.
Wis, and said he would have satisfaction
in the morning. The next day he rode
10 the house of Davis with his gun lying
across his horse. Davis was in his
porch. Some words passed between
them when Johnson dismounted, placed
his gun in shooting position, and re-
marked that If Davis would get his rifle,
they "could take a crack there" The
gun was brought, but went off in the
hands Of the boy who was sent after 1t.
Davis then remarked that IS johnson
would iwait for him to re-load, shots
should be exchanged. Johnson waited,
and the result was the fall Of Davis with
severe though not mortal wound.

ONO WooL.-We have been for some
time aware of the great and increasing
value Of the wool raised in Ohio, and
we were reminded OF the fact to-day by
hearing one Of our dealers remark, that
eastern manufacturers placed a higher
value on Ohio. wool than that of any
ether part of the country. 1t looses
less in preparing il for the loom, and its
superiority to that Of other States is
equal to some three cents a pound.
Columbiana, Jefferson, Harrison.
Knox, Coshocton, Guernsey, Belmont,
Licking, Muskingum, Mahoning, and
some other counties may be considered
the best wool portion the State, The
sheep in this district are fed less grain,
are Pastured longer and on better grass,
and consequently the staple is freer Of
grease, stronger, longer, and of better
quality. The superiority of Ohio wool
rs made evident by the prices that have
been paid for it, and there is no doubt
that this important item OF productive
wealth will continue TO increase in quail.

THE BEST OF TIME is NOW.
"There i. good time coming. boys"
Is the burden Of the song.
Such is the poetry Of youth,
When life and hope are strong;
q Bot when the sun of life declines,
Age cries, "How changed are men.
Things we're not so when was young
The best of time was then"
"Tbere is good time coming, boys"
Is true enough trow,
And says the plain, unclonded truth
There is good time now:
Why not improve the present, then,
Wher'er the future ead.
And let each passing moments page
Bear proof Of thought and deed.
~There is good time coming, boys"
2 Makes many a hpedless youth,
Who all foFgets The present hour
The first. the greatest truth
That OF all times since earth began
The present Is for hiI.:--
That age win soon his powers waste,
And palsy mind and limb.
"There is a good time coming, boys"
And many one has passed
Fer each has had his own good time,
And viii have TO the last.
Then tarry not. oh! eager you tn,
For fairer gales to blow,
But bear in mind the first of truths
The best Of times Is noio!

The HOME AND GRAVE OF THE AU
THOR oP THE DECLARATION OF INDE-
PENDENcE.-A correspondent Of the
Uniontown Democrat, who has re-
Gently visited Monticello, the resi-
dence Of Jefferson, thus describes it:
The interior Of the house is Just
as Jefferson left il, except The furni-
ture, which is all gone, save some
paintings, mirrors, &c. The house,
both outside and inside, bears all the
evidences Of neglect and decay, but
it still retains all its proportions, and
its venerable outline grown gray and
messy By time and neglect, perhaps
adds, rather than otherwise, to its
appearance, particularly 10 a stran-
ger. And the venerable aspen trees
growing around, throw a kind OF
melancholy over everything, that
seems to whisper in your ear, and
point you about three hundred yards
down the woods, TO the grave Of him
who planted them--to the humblest
grave 10 appearance that ever held
the ashes of human greatness. ]

the steamship Maria Burt, during a
severe gale on the coast Of Texas, it
is stated that the same gale ragged
with great violence along The coast of
Texas. The Matagorda Tribune of

Saluria, and Port Cavalo suffered
considerably. At the former pace
every wharf was carried away, and
a number of houses were either lev

their foundations. AT Saluria con-
siderable damage was done. Port
Cavallo, however, escaped with less
injury.

keif Spanish dollars are in circulation,

The counterFeits are dated 1918, and

species of currency should be closely
