A statement was lately presented to the
Statistical Congress in England, by the del.
egates from Australia, in reference to the
gold production of Australia proper, and Of
Tasmania and New Zealand. The details
were somewhat voluminous, but the sum.
ming up made the yield of gold, from 1851
to the close of 1859, fl0l. 81 1928, or. over
five hundred millions of dollars. The Amer
lean gold regions haveyielded even more than
this since the California discoveries of l84s;
and in round numbers it may be stated that
in twelve years the addition to the worlds
stock of gold exceeds one thousand millions
Of dollars. There is something so colossal
in such statement, that the mind can with
difficulty take it in. The ideas of our child
hood, or the Californian period of the
worlds history, in reference to gold, were
so narrow that it takes time to expand ones
thoughts for the proper comprehension.

LOCAL ITEMS.

TRIAL TRIPoF ATRAIN OF IMPROVED CARS
On Thursday morning a train OF ten improved
freight cars, manufactured ut the shops of
the Orange and Alexandria Railroad Compa-
ny made a trial trip as far Springfield, and
returned. These cars have been built upon
an improved plan, designed by Mr.. Thos.
Nichols, superintendent of the car shop, OF
the Orange Company. In these cars the
usual method of joining the timbers by NOR
tise and lennon is abandoned, and newly
invented plan of joining the timbers by
strong cast-iron braces substituted. 1t has
been found hy experience that the former
method, while it required more work, dimin-
ished the size and consequently lessened
the strength of the timber at the precise
point where it should be strongest. The
mortise likewise in many instances formed
Il receptacle for water, and thus soon rotted
and, under the strain to which cars are sub
ectcd, gave way. Under the plan of Mr.
Nichols, the iron bands which unite the
frame work together require little or no cut
ting of the timber, are not liable 10 be in
iured by water, and, of course never rot
They strengthen the cars very much. and
give it ii soIidity, in vain sought for by other
methods. Other improvements have been
made to the cars and they have been
made larger than ordinary to accommodate
cotton and tobacco freights. Sixteen Of the
improved cars have already been built and
large number will follow-tve of which are
already under the hands of the skiliul arti-
zans of the car shop. There has, also, re-
Gently been rebuilt, passenger car, the
painting Of which was executed in fine style
by Mr.. c. d. Rudd, and the whole finish of
which reflects great credit upon all concerned.
The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun, under the items from Alex
dria, says:-A resident has recently mar
red under circumstances which surely indi-
cate his high appreciation Of the blisstul
state. He is considerably over seventy years
Of age-the father of twenty-three children,
and the present is his fourth wife lie re-
joices that the vigor of his manhood yet re-
mains unimpaired. May he live long to e-
joy his new estate.
FoC.-A heavy fog prevailed yesterday
morning early, for several hours. The nights
are now cool.
