MINERAL RESOURCES OF THE SOUTH.

The Knoxville Register has an interesting
article on some late discoveries, which show
that there is one continuous vein of rich
copper ore between the Polk county nine in
East Tennessee, and the mine recently dis
covered 10 Carroll county. Virginia These
Virginia aud Tennessee veins have the same
direction North East and Socth West, the
game dip, the same surface indications, aud
arc tn the same chain of mountains. In the
Tennessee vein tho miners have recently
reached the yellow Su!phuret copper, which
Is regarded as an infallible indication of the
hexbaustible extent of the mines, and also
thoir Incompatible richness A new impe-
tus has consequently been given to mining
operations sand, two weeks since. there,
were sales Of three quartions Of land at 81
10000 About five thousand tons Ok iich
copper ore are taken from the miues monthly,
netting Ia all, at least half million Of dol
lara. This amount will doubtless lie much
increased. when the shafts that are being
suak shall penetrate the rich sulphuret.
But these copper developments, the Regis
tor says, are not the tenth part OF the indca-
lions of the very great value which is at some
eirly day to be attached to mineral lands 10
East Tennessee and South West Virginia,
and which is to furnish new sources of roft
for the great artery of tte Virginia and Ten
nessee Railroad and for the diffusion of in
crossing wealth along its whole line In ad-
dision to tho zinc, lead, marble, gypsum, &c.
OF that fne section of country there are rich
mountains OF iron and coal, to be opened up
and brought into the great laboratory of hu-
man enterprise. With the abundance of coal
and iron, aud the great Improvement in its
manufacture, it is estimated that pig iron may
be made at cost Of little more than five dollars
per son-so that on the completion of the ac-
tuai cost of the iron will be in New \ ark less
than $40 per ton. in Charleston less Tran
Slo, and In Cincinnati less than $l0-and
yet thousands of acres of land in East Ten
nessee, where the coal and iron abound, may
be purchased for less than fifty cents per acre.
In time, capital will iud out these opportuni
ties for investment in Virginia and tennessee

opment Of their teeming resources Come

1t was rumored throughout Washington about 10

Messrs Cutting and Breckenridge which resulted in the
death Of the latter. The report has since been as
certaned to be without foundation little doubt seems
to be entertained that they have really goue fight
Both OF them have left the city, and hostile meeting l.
generally thought to be inevitable. The affair has
conducted quietly and with much prompness Il at
few particulars connected with il have light. II
not known who the respective friends Of the par

before night the result of the viii be definitely

the matter will be amicaby adjusted without resort

isthoughthat both gentlemen possessed Of much
pr character to have permitted matters to proceed
SO far, without, at least, exchange Of shots.
This unfortunate difficulty forms course the all alb.

phrase usually expresses. Little attention il paid
