ADMIRABLY ARRANGED Assemblyman PiNlcy
has presented bill desiring the United States to
donate to miners the claims they now occupy
"wlh certain restrictions for the location of
claims on lands unoccupied." Vast advantages
are expected to oresult from this arrangement; we
are particularly pleased, with "certain restrlc-
tons" But it has bscn inadvertently mentioned
in setting forth the great benefits thereof that
/ the miner wouldn't mind paying small tar
for the sake of having a clear title to the ground.
AM is it there ye are? Failing to pass law for
direct taxation of mining claims, our political
economist, Piylcy, would donate miners what
they own already and tax them a few dollars II
head for imaginary benefits. An faith, Mr. Pix
ley, we don't believe it will do, at all, at all
May we enquire how much better off the miner
would be for having a title put in his hand for
ground which the present United States laws will
enable him to hold forever? What does he want
with ownership of a barren place or pile of stones
after the gold has been removed? As a general
thing, one, two or three years suffice to work out
a claim, after which he moves his camp If not
too much rcstrctcd' in purchase or location Of
new claims, some would become extensive land
proprietors it is possible, however, that the taxes
on each individuals multtudiuous estates would
consume the profits
The miners, themselves, are very we'll satisfied
with the present arrangement; the system works
exceedingly well; it, by complying with very
easy conditions they are allowed to possess a
claim ninety-nine years, or so. and dig out the
gold, they are not disposed to quarrel about fee
simple We regret to remark that persons most
thoroughly ignorant OF mines aud mining are
most prolific OF expedent TO destroy the present
admirable system, distract communities, multiply
lawsuits and oppressvey tax labor

ma is concerned, there seems to be no doubt
but they are in earnest. In that State if there
is any considerable opposition to- the measure
it does not manifest itself, and the dis
unionists have it all their own way. In Geor-
gia, Alabama and Mississippi, Conventions
will be held, for which elections to select dele
gates are ordcred-and it is probable several
others of the extreme Southern States will
follow suit. In all these States there is a de-
cited anien eleFnert, bat whether strong

Diptheria and its Cure--Simple and IF
fcacious Remedy for the Disease.

The singular disease which has thus far
seemed to battle the skill of our best physi-
clans, has become so prevalent and has been SO
generally fatal, that any suggestion in regard
to its cure will hardly prove uninteresting.-
Its causes are not known, and therefore all
treatment has heretofore been merely expert
mental but its pathognoInonic symptoms are
so diversified and dissimilar, that in many inr
stances the throat of the patient closes, and he
dies before the disease has been discovered.
Tn diagnostic by which, it is known from
other complaints of the throat, is The forma-
ton of a membrane which increases gradually
until the patient is literally strangled TO death.
1t is sometimes accompanied by liberation,
and extreme prostration Of the entire system.
and al others by neither of these symptoms,
yet in either case it is equally fatal. To ar
rest formation of this membrane would there
fore seem equivalent to curing the disease, and
this in most instances may be done in the fol-
lowing manner
In the carly stages of the complaint, which
is always accompanied by a soreness and swell
ling Of the throat, let the patient use a simple
solution of salt and water as a gargle, every
fifteen minutes. At the same time moisten a
piece Of flannel with a solution of the same
kind, made warm as the patient can bear it,
and bind it around his throat, renewing it as
often as the sargle is administered, and in the
meantime sprinkling fine salt between the
flannel and the neck. Use inward!y some ton
ic or s'inule nj, either separately, or if the
prostration be great, use both together. The
treatment, as may be seen, is extremely SIM
pie, and, if used in the earlier Stages. of the
disease, will effect a complete cure.-Cincin-

several times the amount he had received. A

Senator CHAsE made a speech in Coyington,

election, which was attentively listened to by
q very large audience, and was an effort highly
creditable to that distinguished Western
Statesman, than whom there are few if any
more able TO be found within the limits of the
Union. There are those who delight in rep
resenting Senator Chase as an impracticable
u%ltraist. but if there is anything in his public
utteranccs in the Senate chamber, on the
stump, or when speaking as Chief Magistrate
of our great State, that will warrant a charge
OF the kind, we have failed to discover it. He
