GE"The st. Louis correspondent of the
Kansas City "Journal of Commerce, /"
writing from the former city, pays the
following compliment to Pixies Peak emf
grants:
''Boats from. St. Paul, from the South,
from the Illinois and the Ohio, are daily
arriving, some Of them with every inch OF
space on board monopolized by Pixies
Peakers, leaving homes, friends, comfort
and quiet, being possessed of that 'ac-
cursed lust of gold-for which. fools give
up their interests in both worlds. First
starved in this, then damned in that to
come
"But there is no use in preaching to
them, for they will go, and perhaps it is as
well so''

ELoPEMENT IN SANDUsKY,-Sandusky
is not without her own elopement case,
which has transpired under unusually
painful circumstances. A German who
has been pining away with consumption
for the last year, was deserted by his un-
faithful wife on Tuesday last, who
stripped the house of every article of
value, except the couch OIL which the
dying man lay, and the cooking stove, and
left the city in company with nelglbor,
who leaves wife and children behind
him. The whereabouts Of The guilty pair
are at present unknown. The shock
proved too great for the enfeebled husband,
and death relieved him from his suferngs
the succeeding night. Nofriend remained
to minister 10 him in his dying moments
but young brother, mere lad. Stran-
GERS performed the last sad rites at his
grave Register.

ESIn cur isst weeks issue we .pnb
lished a letter Of the Pomeroy correspond
en-. Of the Marietta "Intelligencer," il
which there were some statements no
altogether warranted by the facts, whicl
might lead to q wrong impression in re-
gard to some very important considerations
in our salt making interests. For instance
the correspondents sayso
"rhis salt is as ne as any in the world
none excels itin purity and in fneness
Of the grain Itsells at twenty cents the
bushel this year; bushel weighing fifty
pounds. Sold at nineteen cents the bushe
it yields no prQtft; sold at twenty-three
cents it will give fortune in short time
On the spot, then, the trade will see that
it is not worth half cent pound.
One single concern manufactures
145 bushels of salt daily"
1t is very material that the trade at a
distance should know the actual value ol
salt in this market--that our manufactu-
rers can compete with any in the world
Instad of yielding no profit at nineteen
cents, it would pay handsome dividend
on the stock at these figures, and we are
warranted in stating that every bushel in
our yards coptAbe procured at this rate
Our furnaces will average at least 700
bushels each per day, which presents
quite contrast with the correspondent IS
figures; he doubtless meant 145 barrels
per day.
We produce some figures to show the
extent OF manufacturing, shipping. &c.
In Pomeroy and vicinity, there are 9
salt furnaces, manufacturing at an average
of 700 bushels each per day, making an
average daily yield of $500 bushels
The "Dabaey Furnace" probably the lar
gest in the world, alone manufactures
1900 bushels per week. The furnaces
alone, aside from coal mining, barrel ma
king, and Shipping, employ at least 200
men. Some of the wells are 1900 feet
deep. There are 80 salt wells in ALL
From the finest table salt to the coarse
alum is manufactured. The "Ohio River
Salt Co.," which comprises of the 8 fur
napes alluded to, employ during the boating
season steamers and % barges in the ship
mentof salt, which is not competent to dc
more than half the shipping. 1t requires
a large number of barrels in the packing
Of salt, which cost 80 cts each. Slaves,
single, sell from So rs to $4 so per 1000
double, from Sc so to So so, according to
quality. Hoop poles, Sc 90 per 1000.
The correspondent, in alluding to the
coal mines, says:
They take out 5000 bushels every day,
but even this enormous yield would only
half supply the demand of the city oI
Cincinnati"
Had the estimate been $4,000 per day,
it would still have been margin left to the
estimate. TlE.@hole facilities, in and
about Pometoy, we believe, comprises
eight different mines, employing seven
steam tugs, and almost an innumerabie
number Of barges.
We have not time to enter into general
statistics in reference to the two great
features of PomeroY, and give the above
simply to place the correct estimate upon
our salt and coal facilities.

PHOTOGRAPH OF SATURN.

At the Roman Observatory. NJ Secchi
has obtained a good photograph of Sat
urn, which shows not only The dark
spaces between the planet and the ring.
but the shadow of the plane. upon the
ring. 1t also establishes two points of
considerable interest; first, that the
planet is darker than The ring; and. sec
DAD. that the light of the planet is more
powerful than that of our moon. The
proof of this is. that it requires twenty
seconds to produce Photographic i'm age
of the moon, while that OF Saturn is pro
duced in eight minutes, or four hundred
and eighty seconds. But Saturn is al
least eighty times further from Us than
the moon; and, inst, al of requiring
eighty times the number of seconds Ia
produce his image, he requires only
,w+ntv-fnur times NJ. Secchi infer
rom the plantI's superior Photographic
power that he is surrounded by re
hrcting atmosphere, while the moon is
destitute Of such, and entirely black.

man. The lady was an an-el, the
husband n brute. The case Is now on
trial, and the testimony given by the
husband shows that in this, as in other
cases. there are two sides TO it. Mrs.

''scrimped" in her personal vaniIies.--
