gard to Kansas-declaring that, unless be

Iowa "a. Lead Mines.
While the cry among our Miners

While the cry among our Miners and
Others is s'there is nothing being done in
the Mining business" official statistics
show that during the past year there has
been raised in Iowa and Lafayette Coun-
ties alone, near $4,000, 900 pounds of Min
eral, which has been sold for not less than
$4,000. In trrant County we pres ume
nearly AS much more has been raised
which would increase the value of the
Iamount raised to over Sl,0o0,000. And
this too has b. en- done without the invest
ment of any large amount of capital, or
the labor Of a very great number of men.
Most of the mining has been done on a
small scale, by individual enterprise. Pres
Ient developments indicate that the heav-
lest bodies Of Mineral are below level
yet reached by many of the Miners, and
which cannot well be obtained without
a greater outlay of capital than the labor
ing classes generally possess.
A shaft has just been sunk near this
city by one of our enterpriseng citizens, to
a much greater depth than is usual in Min
ing, and the result has been the discovery
Of sheet of Mineral some four inches in
thickness, which promises rich reward
for the labor and money expended In OBJ
tanning il.
The Governor,in his Message briefly calls
the attention of the Legislature to the
Mining interests of our State, aud we
trust an appropriation may be made for
the purpose of ascertaining the facts in
relation to supposed large bodies of Min
era below the point at Which Miners gem
orally suspend operation.-[ Mineral Point

WRITING IN MAILED NEwspApERs-
The British Government, not without a
cause we suspect have made complaint to
the Postmaster General of the Unite /
States of the large number of newspapers
from this country, which are made to serve
as substitutes for letters, by having com
mun cations written inside. The Postnas-
ter General has responded by desiring the
British post office to return all such news
papers to the office at Washington, that
all the senlers Of them may be traced
with view to their prosecution. The
penalty for the offence is $500. United
States postmasters have also been instruc
ted to exercise much more vigilance with
reference to mailed news apers. q.
