MiGHr HAVE BEEN WoRsE-Not many
days since and at place not very far off, a
few Young men, being inclined to be thirsty,
concluded to obtain a bottle of champagne.
wherewith to wet the dry places The bottle
aforesaid was quickly obtained, and almost
as soon nncnrked. Ore of the Young men
took 'swig. and an attentive observer
might have observed peculiar working a.
bout the facial muscles Another and an
other took glass with the same effect, but
it was very evident that the champagne did
not touch the spot

The matter was becoming rather interest

A YELLOW Gun BEAR-A curiosity in the
animal kingdom was brought to Green Bay
1t is yellow cub bear, captured by the In
dian, in the vicinity of Lake Superior, aud
is thought TO be cross between the brown
bear of Asia, and the polar Of the Arctic re-
gions The Indians report having seen
huge bear of the same color, as large as two
common black bears Of the cub the Adyo-
cate SAYS:
The length Of his proboscis, his brown
face, small blue eye, yellow coat of fur, and
his anatomical outlines prove him, in our
mind, to have some claim as a sort of primo
gcnture, to be the first Bruin. of legitimate
descent, that ever nayigated Behring's straits

Another Quartz AmaIgamator.

A correspondent of the Bulletin, writes
from the State Fair at Stockton, as follows =
+" | was also interested in a new Amalgama-
tor for Quartz Mining, the invention of r. Gil
christ, of Stockton. This is intended to be
placed in the flume below the MILL and after
the material from the battery has passed
through all the other amalgamators and con-
trivances for bringing the gold in contact with
quicksilver II consists of cast iron box, the
bottom of which is shaped into succession Of
deep grooves, similar to those on common
board. Under the lid, also Of cast iron, are a
number Of thin flanges, which fit down within
The lid is also perforated with number Of
lateral Sits, through which the powdered
quartz from the mill, brought down in the
fume by the current, is sined 1t falls to the
bottom of the first groove, where is qucksil-
yer. BY the force Of the current it is carried
under the hange, and over into the next groove,
where it again meets quicksilver; then under
the flange, into the next, and so on to the last,
being in constant contact with quicksilver all
the way. In very cold weather, when the
mercury partially loses its affinity for gold,
furnace is made to attach to this Amalgama-
tor, by which proper temperature can be
maintained. saw letter, signed by JAS NJ.
Hill, of Angels Camp, which stated that he
had this apparatus at his mills, and found it to
work admirably Tailngs which before had
been allowed to escape, were run through it.
In few weeks the gold saved more than paid
for the machine"
