PANIC N A CHURCH.-0n Sunday afternoon
last, while the edifce was nearly full of people,
a curtain near the altar, in the Forty second ST.
Catholic Church n. Y caught FIRE from one of
the Iapers and blazed up furiousy. The con.
gregatOn were Immediately panic-stricken, aud
men, women and children made wild rush for
the doors. The large folding-doors we're bolt
cd, aud the only means OF exit were tHe two
side doors which opened at the foot of narrow
stalrcases. In their eagerness TO escape, the
ahrighted crowd trampled upon each other in
the most reckless manner, aud in few seconds,
so gorged the stairways that no one could get
in or out.
Two children were suffering from broken
arms and legs, aud 20 or 80 of the men aud
women had their clothes torn off in the struggle.
while many OF the latter complained of severe
internal injuries from being trodden down in
the crush. The fire IVES extii guished with no
other damage than the loss of the curtain.

THERE is considerable amusement in the fol-
lowing remarks. 1t is recommended to all who
have tried the condition referred to, believing
there is more truth in what is said than is usually
found in so few lines :
NEVER GET OFT OF DEBT.--Thc man who owes
nobody, is a poor, miserable being nobody man
ifests any interest in his welmre-nobody cares
a continental shinplaster whether he lives or dies
lie is lean, hungry. and as lank and wjlted as
the pin-featbers on Jobs turkey. Look at our
great men ; they are all debtors-owe every body
our men OF science, our authors, or sensation
ministers-all, the whole Doodle of them, are
deeper in debt than Pharaoh's army were in the
Red Sea. Debt ennobes man; gives him
more expanded and liberal view of human ma
ture keeps him moving, especially if he never
*pays rent. Nothing will cure consumption quicker
than strong decocion of debt properly taken
TO owe is human to pay is divine. Therefore,
Jill man becomes superhuman he shouldn't at
atempt to emulate divinity. The science of pay
ment, the true modern science, is to get in debt
q TO somebody about enough to pay somebody else
whom you owe. BY this means you will avoid
getting out of debt, and yet maintain a reputa-
tion for paying.

HORACE GREELEY on MlNNG.--In one of his
letters to the TriJuae Greeley expresses HIS
opinion Of the permanently Of the mines in this
State, and the certainty that heavy influx OF
population and consequent reduction Of the price
of labor viii more fully develop them. He
writes
Go where you will in the mining region. you
are seldom II mile distant from past or present
"diggings.' Speaking generally, every ravine,
gully, or water course has been prosppcted eve
ry one at some point dug open to the . bed rock"
and the everything earth or gravel run through
rocker,' " TOM or " sluioe,' in tho hope of
making it yield the shining dust. Many OF those
water courses have been deeply and widely dug
up for miles in extent. If any are left entirely
undisturbcd, the presumption is strong that the
euhaccnt rock is SO near the surface that gold
has had no chance to deposit itself thereon. In
some instances, basins or drpressions in the rock
have been gradually filled up with earth proba-
bly, aurferous-through thousands of years, and
the gold which light otherwise have been stroWn
down the valley for miles is here collected, 50
that it would be sheer waste to mine through
out those miles. But the more general opinion
seems to he that gold is dGused throughout the
soil of the entire mining region, especially upon
and Just above the surface Of the bed rock, though
only in certain localities is it sufficiently abun-
dant to justify efforts to extract it.. | find no one
seeming to cherish any apprehenSonS that Call
torna will cease to produce gold abundantly. at
least within the next quarter Of a century. On
the contrary, the current belief seems to he that
the influx Of population will in time so reduce
the wages of labor, or the progress Of invention
and discovery so increase its efficiency, that eX-
tensve districts will ultimately be mined with
profit which now necessarily avoided If the
amount of available water were doubled, with a
considerable reduction Of price, the gold product
of California would IhcreupOn be increased scVe-
raj millions per annum. At present, mining
terprises of considerable promise and indefinite
magnitude remain in allegiance, simply because
The price of labor the rate Of interest, and other
elements of the cost of mining, are deemed too
high to Justify their prosecution.
