Prof. Winchell of the Geological Sur
vey of Michigan, has published in the
Novembernumber of the American Journ-
al of Science, an account Of the salt bu-
siness in that State. The manufacturers
of this article at Onondaga, New York
and at Pomeroy, Ohio, should take note
of what's doing at Saginaw.
II is only ttUo gears from August last,
when the Michigan wells began TO pro-
duce. They now furnish 1,9S0,Oo0 bush
els. We cannot give the product for
1862 at Onondaga and on the Ohio. But
in 1858 the New York works turned out
100000, and the Kanawha district, in
Guiding Pomeroy, 100000 of bushels,
and the total production of the United
States was 100000.
AtSaginaw, the cost Of making bar
rel of salt is stated to be only sixty four
cents; at Onondaga ninety-fve. In
Michigan there was in August, 1862, %
blocks of kettles in operation, with z
more in course of construction, making
20. In 1858 there were at Onondaga
312 blocks and 16,43t kettles.
What is called salt in common par
lance, is, in chemistry, general name
for combinations of acids with oxyds, es.
pecially suchs oxyds as are alkaline, like
potash, soda or lime. Common salt, wher
pure, is a Chord of sodium. Itsimpuri
ties are, oxyd of iron, sulphate of mag
nesia, the bitterns of salt boilers chloriC
of calcium (lime,) and Chord of magne.
stun.
Clorid of sodium is of common occur
renee in the soil, and in the sedimentarJ
rocks but it is only over limited spaces
that it accumulates as brine, Almost al
artesian wells disclose brine or greater
or less strength. In fact, our purest wa.
ter contains some salt. This is why
there Elm many parts of the earth int.
rior lakes that are brackish, or briny-
like the Dead Sea, and the salt lakes il
Utah, Minnesota and Texas. The salt
ness is the necessary result of prolonged
evaporation in all bodies of water which
have no outlet. On a large scale, thu
ocean is q salt lake.
Salt has its origin as a mineral, form
ing part of the stratified rocks, and il
universally diifused in nature. In pla,
ces it forms the larger part of the rocky
substance, and is then known as ''rocl
salt"
tits thus found in Virginia, in POLAND
and in Africa.

Telegraph and Rail to Ephesus.

It is about a year since we published
the proceedings of the Ottoman Railway
Company, with the remarks Of one Of the
officers. who stated that the time was not
far distant when a branch could be COM
pleted to Ephesus. This is now accom-
plished, and the opening of the line has
been celebrated according to custom, with
speeches and banqueting on the part of
the English proprietors, and midday
prayers and solemn ceremonies on the
side Of the more serious minded Turks
Certainly nothing can be more startling
than this announcement that a railway
conveys the modern traveller from Smyr-
ma to Ephesus! In the lead Of the seven
churches, where the voice Of the great
apostle was heard preaching the new
gospel, the prophecy Of Isaiah begins TO
have literal fulfiment; the valleys are
axalted and the mountains and hills
brought low TO make way for the return
ty which civilizes, reforms, and restores
into those desolate lands Of the Christian.
Ayasalook, the modern village which
stands on the site Of ancient Ephesus, is
miserable collection of novels, having
neither place nor name among the impor-
tant towns Of Asia Minor. The fate OF
the cities OF the seven churches has been
peculiarly melancholy. Smyrna has ris-

the last eighteen centuries, and perhaps

years, preserved a certain Importance in

portance Whatever in the world, and al

From the 81. Louis DEMOCRAT.
EmanoipatiOnists Lin Three Classe.

GnauVl gdIlUHlbJS FIJI lHTee OldSSGS,
There appear TO be three kinds of
Emancipationists in Missouri just at this
time, and a classification of them with
their individual idosyncracies is not
without instruction and some interest.
They stand thus in the list:
First. Immediate Emancipationists
Second. Conservative Emancipation
lists.
Third. Pro- Slavery Emancipationists.
The first class embraces the Radical
Republican and Democratic elements,
(and there is more of the latter class than
is generally supposed who, plainly per-
ceiving the eXigencies and necessities of
the present, and having clear insight
into the demands of the future, propose
to follow up the determination of the ma
jority of the people of Missouri, who are
loyal to the Constitution of the United
States, by wiping out the institution of
slavery at once, through the action of
the Legislature at its coming session, un-
der the compensation scheme.
The second class belongs to the wait
for a. while portion of the people 1t
believes III emancipation, but its leaders
are not quite satisfied that immediate
emancipation is as yet the most popular
that the immediate emancipation horse
is the surest to carry them into power
and place. Indeed, this class, though
including some Republicans, has not, as
a whole, given in its adhesion to the Pres
idents proclamation, and don't believe
that slavery is the cause of the war.
This class, although in heart DESTROYS of
seeing the State Of Missouri made free is
nevertheless too polite to move straight
forward toward the attainment of that
object, and is too weak in the backbone
to take the responsibility. Wait until
the great work shall have been completed,
and the world will be made to think that
the men composing the class did "a all
themselves.
The third class-Pro- Slavery Eman-
cipationists-don't, at heart, believe in
emancipation at all, but seeing it abso .
lutely coming, don't want TO, because
they dare not, put themselves in opposi-
ton TO it, and hence desire to make as
fair terms for slavery as possible, and in
| the end steal all the. thunder of praise
which is to follow the final consumma-
ton of the desired event If this class
could in any way get off the track before
the Emancipation engine were to come
upon them, or have time to turn round
and give it fight, it would do so gladly.
But it sees Freedom written indelibly
on the walls all round them, and escape
from the alternative is hopeless.
What the relative strength Of these
three classes is in the State, is not now
entirely apparent. That the first has a
decided majority over the other two, is
quite clear; and that it will pursue its
chosen work to conclusion worthy oil
its ambition, and the best hopes and in
terests of Missouri now and hereafter, is
certain.

make up the number of the Sultan's sub
jects and pay his taxes, are never heard
of in modern history, scarcely indeed in
modern travel. Laodicea is wild waste
of ruin inhabited only by the wolf, tho
stork, and the vulture. Philadelphia,
like Pergamos, is a filthy Turkish town,
noted in modern times, and its immedi-
ate neighborhood, for the total absence of
brotherly love, and the frequent occur
renee of brawls and bloodshed Sardis
lies buried on the banks of the golden
Pactolus In moonlight night the two
lonesome columns of the temple of Oobele
stand ghostly on the plain, sole relic Of
the ancient idolatry: but of the few that
remained faithful, with unstained gar
ments, in Sardis, there remains no memo
rial on earth, save only that ever present
promise, by virtue of which they shall
walk in white robes.
There was another feature of the OPEN
ing of the railway at Ephesus. Al the
time of midday prayer Geographic
dispatch was sent from Ephesus (Ayasa-
lOok) to Constantinople announcing to the
Sultan Abd-elAssiz that the line was
opened.
Could the dead dust of Ephesus awake
to life and behold the wonders OF that
day, what establishment would fill the
souls of the long sleepers That dust
| is not only OF the great men in prolane
history, but it is eminently sacred in
the eyes of the Christian. Mary the
Virgin mother, doubtless was buried
here, and her dust went here TO the COM
| mo IA ha N..,, e
which her son was the first fruit. John,
the beloved disciple, having seen from
the rocky hill of Patmos the glory of his
Masters House, from which he, the WELL
beloved and most inpatient, was longest
of all the disciples kept away, received
at length in Ephesus the joyful answer
to his prayer, "Oome quickly, Lord" and
shook off here the dust of his long pill
grima,e.
Timothy, the friend of Paul, and per-
haps first bishop of the Church in Ephe-
sus, died here, as seems to be probable,
and was buried in this soil. Here One
siphorus, and Prisca, and Aquilla, ..ad
others who have come down to long mem
Dry and affection as those who ministered
TO the WEAKNESS and sulieriugs of the
great Apostle, lived and doubtless died,
and over their dust the modern steam
car thunders by the ruins of the theatre
in which Paul was accused by the peO-
pie, and the silent wire of the telegraph,
the work of the American Morse
modern christian of a land then lying
unknown beyond the pillars of Hercules
that wire bears to far Byzantium the
lightning intelligence that the followers
of Mohammed are at prayer in the moslk
on the plains Of Ayasalook, Getty of the
Moon" Diana of the Ephesians has re-
gained the possession of her desolated
city, bnt the railway and the Geographic
wire will be the advance couriers Of the
returning faith of Mary and John and
Paul and Timothy.

Negroes Citizens Of the United

eral Bates.

DTegroes Citizens Of the United
States-0pinion Of Attorney GEN
eral Bates.
The opinion of Attorney General on
this important question is now completed,
and in the hands of the Secretary of the
Treasury, at whose request il was pre-
pared. The facts on which il is based
are stated as follows:
"The schooner Elizabeth and Marga-
ret, of New Brunswick, is detained by
the revenue cutter Tiger, at Perth Am
boy, N. D., because commanded by a col
ored man, and so by person not citi-
zen of the United States. AS colored
masters are numerous in our coasting
trade, | submit to you the question sug-
gested by Capt. Martin, of the Tiger,
Are colored men citizens Of the United
States, and therefore competent TO COM
mand American vessels 2
AS some incorrect statements have gone
forth in regard 10 this opinion, we give
the chief points. The constitution does not
define the word "citizen,' so the Attor-
ney General examines history and the
civil law, from the days of Rome down,
for its meaning. His conclusion is that
all free persons, without distinction of
race or color, if native born are citizens.
A distinction is made between the inher-
ent rights of citizens and the political
privileges Of certain classes. All citi-
zens have a right 10 protection, but only
certain classes enjoy the privileges Of
voting aud holding office. Hitherto not
only the public, but jurists, have often
confounded the two. A child Of a wO-
man is a citizen, though not always pri-
ylleged TO hold office. The bred Scott
opinions are pronounced void and Of no
authority, since the province Of the SUI
preme Court was only TO settle the ques-
ton Of the jurisdiction of the Circuit
Court They are simply entitled TO the
respect due to the views Of eminent gem
tlemen, and no more. The papers con-
clude as follows
"And now, upon the whole matter, /
give IL as my opinion that the free man
of color mentioned in your letter, If born
! in the United States, is citizen of the
United States, and, il Otherwise qualiG-
ed, is competent, sccording 70 the acts Of
7 Congress, TO be master OF vessel engage
2 ed in the eoas,ing trade.'

What the Rebels say about the Con.
templated Attack on Mobile


Whenever Butler and FaTagut get
ready to attempt the conquest of this
city, they will find it a job of such mag
nitude as was never conceived by the
most fertile Yankee brain.
The time has gone by when apprehen-
sions of their irOn-clads and flame vom-
iting mOrtars interfered with the diges-
ton Of our citizens. A late Yankee letter
writer, using his pen on board one of the
blockading vessels off Fort Morgan, di-
verts his readers with the idea that ono
bile is a doomed city" In the great ca
lendar of Fate it is "loomed city" to
all Lincolnites, for its enemies will never
hold possession of it until its streets are
drenched in blood, and its edilices are
devoured by flames.
There is a settled determination to de-
fend it TO the last and direst extremity

ment has made open declaration of his
resolution to suffer the destruction Of the
commercial metropolis of the State rather
than surrender il into the hands Of the
