GOLD DIscoyBRRD ON A VIRGINIA FARM
The Norfolk (ya.l Day Book, of late date,
says that on the previous day some men,
who were digging well on the farm of Mr..
Shea on Scotts Greek, when at depth of
about eight feet from the surface, discovered
numerous scales Of gold. A large crowd of
people soon collected on the spot, and the
digging commenced in earnest and as new
scales were found, the excitement increased
in proportion. The owner of the farm, who
is shrewd man, intimated TO the crowd
that richer deposits might be found in GER
tain other locality, to which he carried them,
and at late hour in the evening the mass OF
the crowd were engaged in digging up a
heavy piece of ground that Mr.. Shea will
thus have in good planting order in the fall.
The fact that gold was found is well vouched
for, but the question how it came there, and
how much of 1t is there, is poser. The
samples spoken of are now being tested, and
the knowing ones say are undoubtedly the
genuine stuff. .. HF n.. dal.rHs ~ iuf

IMPROVED METHOD OF COPYING Busrs AMI

IMPROVED METHOD OF COPYING BUsTs AND
STArUEs.--An improvement in the method
of producing copies of busts, statues groups,
and round ornaments, by the gafvano- plastic
process, has been successfully introduced.
The principle Of operation Is the use of con-
ductors, so arranged as to spread the cleo
trical current over a large surface, the modes
of applying differing according to circum-
stances. One plan Is as follows: A piece of
copper or Of charcoal is made to represent in
miniature the form in outlines of the object
to be reproduced; this miniature re-conductor
is sattached to the negative pole, and then in
troduced into the interior of the mold,
which, of course, is in connection with the
same pole; the whole is then plunged together
in the bath. The metal is conducted BY the
various points of this minature-conductor to-
ward all the various hollows which corre-
spond with its prominences. An improve
ment on this, however, consists in substitute
ing for the miniature a light frame or mass
formed of metallic wire, and introduced In
the same manner into the hollow of the
mold, and form, as it were, mass of nerves
for conducting the electricity into the most
intricate portions of the hollow mold
These wires also render the decomposition of
the solution unusually active.

GREAT PANIC AND FEAR IN CHISA-- Thou
SANDS OF FAMILIES HOMELESS AND IN DESPAIR.
The Shanghai (China) correspondent of the
New York EUsning Post observes;
At the present time the great cities Of
Hang Chow and Su-Chow and the neigh
boring country are in a state of panic that is
pitiable TO behold. Thousands and tens Of
thousands Of people--men, women and chill
dren-are fleeing in the widest dismay,
trying to escape from the approaching
flong-baired rascals," as they are called.
Thousands of families are wandering through
the country without the means Of subsist-
ence, and having no shelter from the in
clemencies of the season. Twice within two
months the people Of Shanghai have caught
this panic, and at this time hundreds of peo-
pie are leaving. 1t is said the, Tau-tai has
applied to the commanders of the American,
English and French men-of-war for a guard,
and I am informed that French force OF
300 or 400 men has been offered the Tau-tai,
which he will probably accept. This state
of affairs bids fair to. seriously interrupt
trade between the tea and silk districts and
the coast The great thoroughtares leading
from these districts to Shanghai, are even
now said to be in the hands of the rebels, 50
that communication is nearly interrupted.
This, too, just as the wheat harvest ID APP
preaching, and the seeding time for some Of
the staple productions of the country, seems
to threaten the poorer people with starvation,
and the traders and tea and silk merchants
with ruin. tt1 pc fi .'r ai1t =,

EXPERIMENTS IN STEAM CASAL-BoArs.-
The Philadelphia North American, in an ar

to the success of steam propellers on the
Schuylkill Canal, and are glad to find, that

vation. Economy is the benefit required,
and If 1t can be shown that steam is cheaper
than towing by mules, then would steam be
justly regarded as more desirable motive

but the experiment is in progress, and can

MELANCHOLY CONDITION OF vENIcE.-The
following letter has been received from
Venice, dated the 3lst of July:
No description can give an idea of the sad
and melancholy state of Venice. All the
noble and wealthy foreign families who used
every year TO occupy apartments in the
Palaces of the Canal have abandoned It. and
the emigration of the native inhabitants is
becoming more numerous every day. There
is an undisguised struggle between an un-
armed population, who manifest by all the
means in their power their hatred Of foreign
rule, and an obstinate stupid local govern
ment revenging itself on the mass of the
population by various petty annoyancs. In
this struggle the Austrian army remains neu-
tral, and If we are to judge from the casual
remarks Of the officers. it is fatigued with the
task imposed on it. A recent decree COM
mands that the ancient formula, 'Tombardo-
Venetian" shall be employed in all official
acts, and the word Lombardo is as often
effaced as it is posted in the square of st.

COLLEGE RRBRLLIoN IN NORTH CAROLINA.
A correspondent of the Petersburg (va.) En-
press, writing from Chapel Hill, North Caro-
lima, says: -r l4-1.
"The other day there were three hundred
and thirty-five students in the University of
North Carolina. But of the ninety odd Sophs,
the Faculty has lately dismissed sixty odd.
One of them tried his hand at plagueing q
new student, and came near being thrashed.
The Faculty added another punishment to
show their disapprobation of the barbarous
practice. Whereupon the Sophs, to assert
their right to vex strangers, resolved to absent
themselves from their duties until their col
league was restored. At first all of the class
at the University, except eleven, engaged in
rebellion; but when the sentence Of the
Faculty fell, it caught between sixty and
seventy only. of course their colleague
must now show his pluck by eschewing
prayers and recitations till all his compan-
ions return.

PRICE ONE CENT.


A Pnrlslan Tenor's Suit Against n Theaf.
ricnl nIanaser He Receivers Damages
by His Ronlndes.
Recently, in Paris, certain tenor. whose
name II would not be fair TO give, appeared
before the tribunal TO insist upon payment of
the full sum mentioned in the conditional
contract he signed with the managers of one
Of our theaters some two months ago. The
tenor Is engaged by an English inipresdrio,
and reckoned upon the money for the ex-
penses to which he would be compelled by
the journey. The manager coolly refused
to pay him, because he had not fulfilled the
terms Of the contract. He had no O shnrpl
and II was for this sharp alone that the
manager cared. If he could produce q D fiat
II was fully as much as he was capable of;
therefore, nothing more than the pay of an
ordinary chorus singer should he have. The
poor tenor defends himself most valiantly
against this imputation. Not only has he a
full q sharp, but, moreover he can hold it.
The court ruminates for awhile and de-
cides that pothing but real merchandise can
be brought into court-that the tenor must
sue in the ordinary way for loss of time and
nothing more. Thereupon the tenor, who
is pressed for time, no doubt, starts up and
exclaims-"But, gentlemen, my @ sharp is
merchandise, and can bring it into court"
and begins series of roulades which echo
against the roof of the hall terminating in
the aforesaid O sharp, which thrill through
the ears of the bench, until they cry for
mercy, and the mirth occasioned by the in-
cident so completely alters the temper of the
lawyers that they gave their verdict in favor
OF the oppressed one; and he carries off the
whole sum mentioned in the contract, amid
the laughter of judge, lawyer, witness and
even the defendant himself.
