GOING UP AND Down STAIRS BY Ma
cHINERY.-In describing Paran Stevens
new hotel in New York, the Journal of
Commerce says
A luxurious ear or ladies' carriage is
provided, which will glide from the low
er floor to the uppermost story. easily
conveying eight or ten persons at trip.
This car in propelled by steam, and pass
es up aud down upon a revolving spiral
shaft nearly 100 feet long and about ten
inches in diameter and so perfect is
this invention that under no circum-
stances is there possibility of accident
Even should all the machinery above be
removed. the car cannot descend any
faster than usual, owing to an ingenious
hydraulic arrangement at the base and
independent of this, the revolving shaft
may be stopped at pleasure by any per-
son inside or outside the car. This car
is the invention of Mr.. Otis Taft, Of Bos
ton. and seems to be of great value.

A NICE CANDIDATE FOR JUDGE.-The
Burlington Haackeye says of Mr.. c. c.
Cole, one of the Democratic candidates
for Judge of the Supreme Conrt aia
Before he was nominateda a gentleman,
who can be relied on, told us that recent
ly stranger had his pocket picked of OF
lost his pocket book, containing one hun
dred dollars. He offered fifteen dollars
for the recovery Of the money, of which
the thief had spent all but $50. He
gave Sl5 to the person who made the
arrest, and kept the other SIS as fees.
The stranger appealed to his lawyer, say
ing that he was stranger, entirely out
of money, and having no means of re.
turning home. Cole told him he must
go around 70 the citizens and beg, and
accordingly wrote out subscription pa
per, heading it with his own name for
SO so, and charging that amount for
drawing up the paper. Is this the kind
of an individual to occupy the high po-
sition of Judge of the Supreme Court ?
He does not deserve the honor of defeat,
and will be incontinently kicked out OF
the arena when his party are better N
formed as to his real character.

John NJ. Bolts has written another let
ter on the new Cass doctrine in relation
to citizenship of naturalized citizens,
and their right to the protection o: ouI
government. The letter is lengthy. but
the import of it may be learned from the
following paragraph, thus: The ques.
ton involved is simple one. There is
no necessity for outside issues, equivocal
explanations, or tortuous, incomprehen-
sible circumlocution on the subject. 1t
is: Is the naturalized citizen entitled to
the same protection from his adopted
country that the native claims, or is he
not? That is the ques.on, the only ques.
ton. say he is. The Administration,
of which the Secretary is the organ, says
he is not. Let the people decide between
us.

Then | slipped the iron wrench out, and

him. He was marched off to the lock-

" After breakfast the Sheriff came
down to the tavern and told me l had

goods all safe, paid the express agent for

on line about five inches apart. and had
l been where l usually sat, two of them
would have hit me somewhere in the

for they were sent with heavy charge
Of powder, and his pistol was a heavy
one.
On the next morning the Sheriff cal

lars in gold, for he had got the villain.

Sheriff of Hancock county, and he in

holes just as he had told us, though they

AN UNWELCOME PASSENGER,

A cold winters night found stage
load of us gathered about warm fire of
tavern bar room in New England vii
lage. Shortly after we arrived peddler
drove up and ordered that his horse
should be stabbed for the night. After
we had eaten supper we repaired to the
bar room, and as soon as the ice was
broken the conversation flowed freely.
Several anecdotes had been related, and
finally the peddler was asked to give us
story, as men Of his profession were
generally full of adventures aud anec-
dotes. He was short thick set man.
somewhere about forty years of age, and
gave evidence of great physical strength.
He gave his name as Lemuel Vienny, and
his home in Dover, New Hampshire.
"Well, gentlemen. he commenced,
knocking the ashes from his pipe, and
putting II in his pocket, "suppose / tell

From the st. Joseph West, July 9th
Late from the Mines.

We had the pleasure of a visit on yes
terday from Mr.. Harry Nc Coy. who left
Denver City June oath. Mr.. Mccoy is
we'll known to many persons in this COM
munity as gentleman in every way re-
liable. His statements, so far as his
knowledge extended, are true beyond
doubt, and from his we'll known intelli-
gence and energy we have no question
but that he learned all that could be
known about the mines up TO the time
he left it.
Mr. McCoy left ST. Joseph on the 10th
of Feb. last He went to the mines with
the full determination to find out all about
them before his return, and he has prose
cuted his enquiries steadily with that
view, during his four months stay there.
His report is not so favorable as some
that have lately been received. He left
because he couldn't make money enough
to induce him to stay-says that there
are only eight or ten claims that pay for
working at all that these are in the Gre
CORY diggings, that all the reports about
richness of other mines are absolutely
false, and that these eight or ten leads
or claims pay, on an average, about $50
per day to the man.
Mr.. Mccoy thinks that there were,
when he left, as many as $4,000 to 80, :
600 people in and about the mines, most
of whom were not, of course, making
anything. The whole face of the coun-
try had been torn up BY prospecting par
ties, most of whom had become discour-
aged and quit. All the diggings except
Gregory's. viz: Jefferson, Jackson,
Boulder, South Platte, Cherry Greek,
&C., had been deserted, and the miners
were leaving in great numbers. Not less
than $500 or 5000 wagons. Mr.. Mccoy
thinks, are on the road home at this time
most of them making for st. Joseph.
Very many, however, have gone in 9th
er directions, some to California and Or
egon, and not few to Sonora, though
these last will hardly be able TO pass the
several tribes Of savage Indians-such as
the Apaches and Mohaves-who ere
showing disposition to be very trouble
some. Many of those who remain at the
mines were working for what they can
get-generally for their board--2 meals
day
In regard to the character Of the leads
which have been found to pay, Mr.. Nc
Coy says that they are quartz leads RUM
ing S. f. and n. W., and have been
traced nine miles. They can be traced
by blossom Of a chocolate color. and in
the form of boulders. The gold is form
ed Immediately on the lead-outside the

color of yellow clay. and when ii has beer

a general thing few are successful-no
more than one out of FIVE hundred -
| There is great scarcity of water, which
makes mining very difficult and expen
sive.
