EDs:ss ssSTATEsMAN:-Allow me to call the atten-
ton of your readers; to the Ladies'
Fair, to be held at the Masonic Hall, on the
evenings of the 28th 29th and 3Oth of this month,
for the benefit of the Sisters of Charity.
Their noble devotion to the cause of the poor,
the sick and distressed of all nations, needs no
comment from me- it is written in characters of
gold on the tablet of History, and Ifeel sure that
the citizens of Walla Walla Valley too fully ap-
preciate the advantages to their children in the
present and their children children in the fu-
ture to fail to patronize so laudable and praise
worthy an object
The ladies have for some time past been de-
voting all their time possible to making and ar
ranging articles for the fair and hope that their
efforts will be rendered profitable by full at
tendance of the citizens of Wala Walla Valley.
Those charitably disposed are informed thatany
contributions in aid of the Fair can be left at
the Sisters School or with Mrs. Alfred A. Mix,
President of the Ladies' Fair. Trusting that
all who can will respond to their call in behalf
of that first of all virtues CHARITY.

STOCK RENARKs.-Thc Mining Share
Market has been subjected to fresh panic
since Saturday last, and every stock on the
list sympathiZes in the downward movement
At no former period since the Inauguration
Stock Exchange Board in this city was so
much distrust and fear apparent among the
Brokers and all dealers. The Serions decline
in stocks which have hitherto given an i'm
petus and sustaining power to all other shares
is the most unfavorable feature of the market
and until confidence in leading stocks is
measurably restored and their intrinsic value
more clearly defined, it will be difficult to in
spire much faith in the stability of this de-
scription Of mining property. Some radical
errors have been made in the management Of
even the best and most prominent claims.
The history Of mining enterprises in other
localities seems to have been entirely ignored
or lost sight of, and the experience of others
in developing mines of silver and gold was
not regarded as applicable to this interest in
Nevada Territory. The same results have
followed the development of nearly all virgin
mines in Mexico, and many of the unfayora-
Bile features that now present themselves in
our silver bearing lodes have been met with
frequently elsewhere, It would have been
wiser to have made some provision for these
unpropitious circumstances, and to have been
in some respects prepared for them. The
policy Of rapid extraction and the reduction
Of every ton of ore that could be brought to
the surface, without regard to the exhaustion
Of the mine or the waste in the process of
milling will in future give place to more
economical measures and better judgment.
The lesson we are now learning will be of
service in its application to the management
of claims that are yet in their infancy, but
which gave evidence of undoubted value

SPEcULATIoNs CONCERNING THE ATTAIN
TIC CABLE-The Telegraphic Journal, a new
London paper, devoted to the speciality which
its name implies, INDUCES in some curious
speculations about the new Atlantic Gable,
which is to be laid next year, with the help
of the Great Eastern. 1t is intended to
gauge the capacity Of the cable ut work.
ing speed of eight words a minute; but,
allowing only six in actual practice,
the Journal arrives ut the following re-
suits: Six words per minute would give three
hundred and sixty per hour, or eight thou
sand six hundred and forty per day OF twenty
four hours, which it would be necessary 10
occupy in consequence Of the vast amount OF
business which would have to be transmitted.
Allowing three hundred working days in the
year, the number of words which it would
be practicable to transmit would amount TO
2,592, 900 or 1880 messages of twenty
words each per annum, being at the rate OF
432 per day, which, at 10 per message,
would yield revenue Of f64S, 900; and after
allowing out of this sum t2l6, QUO for contln-
gencies, there would remain net revenue OF
E432 900 as the result Of three hundred days
operation, at the end Of the year. The an
nual disbursements are estimated at E92, 600,
which leaves balance of f340, 900. This is
a cheerful prospect for the stockholders in
the enterprise. But the cable is not yet laid,
and, when laid, it may be as shUrt-liyed as
its predecessor of 1858. We find in the
Journal, however, some other statistics
which are highly interesting. The Varna
and Balaklava cable worked at the rate Of
FIVE words per minute; the Red Sea subma-
rine line is working up to seven words, and
the Malta and Alexandria to ten. The speed
