Brick MINE Some excitement has pre-
vailed at La Grande and vicinity recently in
regard to the discovery Of mine Of stuff
supposed by the discoyerers and others to be

in a specimen of the orc the other day, which
he obtained from one Of the excited, and, af-
ter fair examination Of it, we are willing to
stake our reputation as geologists and met
alurgsts that it belongs to the gen1s brick |!
Not of the kind, however, thatwo read about
in the papers as manufactured in assay Off
ces, but of that class commonly used in this
country in constructing fre-proof buildings.
The discoverers will find when they have
tested the article that burnt sand and clay
will not yield quicksilver; but if the mine
lies in a region where timber is scarce, and
where the country is likely to be settled up,
they may turn it to profitable account by go
ing into the manufacture Of bricks. They
can saw their bricks out, Ia marble quar-
ries, and furnish to an incredulous world
proof of the fact that there is yet something

, A GooD FIRE COMPANY The credu-
lous and incredulous few who have hereto
fore been so charitable as to predict that the
engine would yet be the cause of the des-
tructon of our town because people would
not work with buckets when there was a
prospect of its being used-have changed
their minds since Monday night, and are
willing to admit that with even the halfor-
ganized condition of those having charge Of
the engine, it saved the town from a general
'confagration. All are now in favor of hav-
ing "a good fire company" and talk wisely
of how the ''machine" could have been bet
ter maraged If half the interest had been
manifested heretofore that now is in the
matter, much better work would have been
done on Monday night; but we may now hope
for better things hereafter. The only way
to have good fire company is for the citi-
zens to turn out on drill occasions and become
acquainted with the proper management of
the engine 1t is lamentable fact that it
has heretofore been almost impossible to get
enough members of the Company together on
drill occasions to haul the engine to the els
terms While on this subject, VIC would
mildly suggest that one foreman of COM
pany is enough. The unconsciOnable noise
and confusion made by the self-cOnstituted
officers on Monday night rendered it almost
impossible to hear an order from the fore
man.
