An IMMENSE Run AT BILL1ARps.-Yesterd noon
Bill Stelter, Of the Apollo billiard rooms, made the
largest run at billiards we have heard of being
made in this city. He was playing the full game
with MIR. Wilson, the architect, and had made about
100 by shots around the table, when he succeeded in
locking the two red balls in the jaw Of the corner
pocket he then counted and continued to count until
having played over two hours, be dropped the cue
from sheer fatigue. He marked the position of the
balls on the table, and we learn will continue his
game this evening. That Bill made this run, seven

IRON. LEAD AND PLASTER.

On Flint River, some twelve miles
above here, Prof CHALLIs has discovered
. fine vein of iron ore which will well pay
for working. Some Of his specimens are
full 20 per cent pure iron and from his
tests he pronounces it fully equal to the
best Lake Superior ores. He has also
very fine specimens from Cass river, and
from the Bay shore, near Tawas, OTTAWA
Bay). On the Bay he also found large
deposits of Plaster, as fine and white as
the best Of the Grand River plaster.
There are also Lead ores, in places on
the Bay shore, so pure that the Indians
have heretofore supplied themselves from
that source.
