OuR MONTHLY YIELD.-We are informed
that one assay Office in this city has, du-
ring the past month, turned out 37,500
ounces of bars. The average value per
ounce was about S., making the total val
ne Sls7. 500. In addition to this amount,
the Ophir and several other companies do
their own smelling and shipping, so that it
is almost impossible to arrive at correct
estimate of the amount yielded by the en-
tire Territory. During the past month, the
quantity of bullion shipped has been near
ly doubled, and those best posted predict
that during the coming month the amount
will at least be doubled again.-Territoria

PATENT ARMs.-It is well understood that
Colt and others, holding patents from the
United States, have for long time past
been supplying the South with arms of the
most effective kind. AS tLe;e men are pro-
tected in their manufactures of arms by
letters patent granted by the United States,
it is the duty of Congress at once to revoke
their patents, and make the manufacture OF
patent arms free to all. Among the first
acts of the next Congress should be the re-
vocation of the patents of all who have
supplied the rebels with arms. There are
men in Hartford and New Haven who would
learn useful lesson by such a discipline
as that. Let us have a free right for all to
make tine best arms.-N. Y. Tribune.

connection with the copper mines of this

ed by Senator Crittcndcn.
7. That while we would 90 as far the farthcst
to adjust, upon the principles of equality and right,
the unhappy differences which now exist between
the Northern and Southern portions of this COME
dcracy, we believe that alnicablc adjustment

the part of the Federal Government against those
States which have now may hereafter seccdc
from the Union.
8. That while earnestly advocate the recon-
struction of our Union and desire delegates to
all efforts to that effect, that consider the
interests and honor of Maryland indssolublv con-
nected with Virginia, Kentucky and other border
events unfortunately render such reconstruction
impossible, and should result in two separate
federaCies, that then Maryland will share the fate
and future of her Southern sisters let that fate and
future be what it may.

GA man nvinccd against his will

Then, if a man, why not State? We ask
then, what will or can the General Government
do with them? We pause for an answer. In
the meantime we would suggest that when a
fire breaks out in the woods, it is generally con-
sidered simple madness to fight the fire. but all
wise men 60 off at q distance, encirce the wild
element, prevent its spread and suffer it to burn
itself out. This is just our view in regard to the
present troubles. Let the non seeding States
be rendered fire proof by simple act of justice,
the repeating Of obnoxious laws in the erring
Northern States, and giving full guarantee to
the whole Union that all the States shall have
their proper rights respected BY this means
suffer the fire Of secession to burn itself out and
when the smoke has subsidized and clear and
healthful atmosphere within the Union present.
ed to their view, we shall see the seeding States
coming back, not as conquered provinces, not
as good and loyal citizens, ready to unite in
forming a stronger Union than ever.
One word to those of both North and South
who are busily engaged in stirring up strife
with an eye to dissolution or for any othe, pur-
pose. Gentlemen, do you expect the people of
this mighty nation. after the storm is past, land
we have strong hope that it will yet pass and
that soon,) do you expect the people q. this
mighty nation to forget you? and if relnem-
bered, for that remembrance to be in kindness
for your deeds? If you do, let us inform you
that never in all the course of your short lives
were you more mistaken. The people VIII re-
Inember you, but it will be to point you OFT to
their children as the men who, in 1860 and '61 j.,
tried hard to overthrow the government; as men
who made every effort to precipitate the nation
into revelation civil war and bloolshed. As
men who would fain have destroyed 'theland
of the free and the home of the brave" from ia
natical and selfish motives. And having taught
their children a new lesson in patriotism, point
to your example as one which they must never
follow and to your person as one which they
would do well to shun. No personal injury
will you sustain but, oh, what a life! feared
by many, shuned by all, pitied by none And
when it shall please the Omnipotent to call you
hence, no sigh will escape the bosom of thev-
ing, no tear will wet your coffin lid. Your
work has nearly been completed, but may the
great overrulng God avert the end you would
secure for u.s. Men of the North, men of the
South, if fanatcism or treason enters into your
hearts, repent of the evil already done and case
to sprerd it more.
