SILVER MINES IN CAMPBELL COUNTY,
KENTUCKY.-Mr. B. Daniels, on whose
lands in this county the silver mines are
located, was in Newport on Friday last,
and gives some interesting items in re-
gard to affairs in his neighborhood He
says that he has been aware of the ex-
istence of silver on his lands for num-
Der of years, and about five years ago he
attempted to open and work one of these
veins, but after sinking shaft some fif.
teen feet deep, the water flowed in, and
he abandoned the undertaking. He, how
ever, obtained some good specimens of the,
silver, which he now has in his posses
sion. Mr.. Craig, the lessee, has COM
menced operations with force of sixty
men, which adds much to the excitement.
Mr.. D. also informs us that Mrs. John
Gosney, who lives in that vicinity, has
lately found piece of rock containing
about ahalf an ounce of gold A spring
located upon tract of land owned by
Senator r. T. Baker, and adjoining the
lands of Mr.. Daniels, is said to be cover
ed with petroleum This section of the
country certainly offers great induce
ments for the researches ofthe biologists
and mineralogists.

i now on his way to Nashville To pur
chase a pack of ood-hounds to hunt
down Indians. These fierce animals cost
from So to $40 a piece, and n liberal sum

besides earnestly recommending the en-.
terprise to the citizens"
We find the above paragraph going the
rounds of the press without comment OF
condemnation. 1t would seem that all
the sympathy many people have to spare
is given to the negroes exclusively, so
that not single thought Of compassion
or true hearted humanity can be bcstow-
ed upon the Indians OF the western
frontier These Indians have been guilty
ufatrocious Outragcs, it is true; they have
murdered defenseless women and chill
drcn and burned villages with true saw
age fcrocity, but these crimes have not
been entirely unprovoked They have
been repeatedly and shamefully wronged
by the white settlers and by the agents
of the government. The immediate oc-
casion of the Indian outbreak in the
Northwest was the rascality of an agent
who had been sent to pay the regular
annuities to the tribes in that region
He used for speculative purposes the
gold that had been appropriated by the
government for the payment of these In
dian dues and then tried to compel the
Indians to receive greenbacks at par in
stead. Other atrocities were provok-
ed by the Infamous conduct of Col.
onel CHIRRINGToN who murdered
in cold blood more than hundred In
dians, who We're entitled to and relied
upon his protection, These circumstances
do not, of course, justify the savage wal
fare ofthe Indians, bnt they show that the
quarrel had too sides to it in the berin-
ming. To resort now to the use of blood.
hounds for hunting the Indians to death
is to place ourselves even lower in the
scale of civilization than the Indians
themselves. The employment of these
savage animals to track and catch fuei.
tive slaves or escaped prisoners in the
South has always been justly regarded
with horror, and has been emphatically
denounced by Northern men Wewould
like to see at least some portion of this
indignation directed against those who
now propose to use the same inexcusable
cruelty towards the Indians of the North
west. .E.-i So,

A Disinterested Judge.

From the Richmond Commercial Bulletin, June
Is.
We are credibly informed that Judge
Underwood, who was in this city few
DAYS ago, making arrangements to hold a
term of the United States Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia, is at present
occupying the dwelling house of Mr.. Will
liam NJ. McVeigh, in Alexandria, and
claiming to be the lawful owner thereof
in fee simple, by virtue of decree OF
confscation and sale entered in his own
court. This house, worth fully $4,000,
was sold by the marshal of Judge I'm
derwood's court for the sum of 81 800,
and Judge Underwood himself became
the purchaser. Mr. McVeigh's son was
living in the house at the time OF the
confiscation and sale above referred to-
Mr.. McVeigh is over fifty years of age
and never held Office of any sort under
the confederate government He was
indicted, we see, last week, before the
grand Jury of Norfolk for treason The
| Constitution of the United States anC
the laws of every civilized land require
that a man shall be convicted of treason

.v,..r,.. or aIillionaires.

Under this heading tho N. 7, Sunday
Tsmss reads q forcible homily upon the
idea that all is not gold that glitters,
and thatthe man who has made his pile
has not in consequence 'sowed content
ment among his days. The Times in il
lustration gives three pictures-a triune
of wealth-in the following sitting:
Look at William B. Aston as he slowly
and with automatic gait moves along
Broadway, glancing neither to the right
or the left, and evidently deeply immersI
ed in mental arithmetic. Manifestiy ne
is the oppressed "pack horse" of his own
"ereat affairS'-a being that might have
tripped gaily through the world with a
light heart and thin pair of breeches,
had he not been a pet of Plutus; but
who. as it is, stoops under weight OF
rent roll and bond and mortgage, almost
too heavy for elderly humanity to bear
Unfortunate financial Atlas, with work
of wealth upon his shoulders, and care
and anxiety, sitting like twin incobi,
perched upon its top, how we pity him!
And vet such is the effect of habit In re-
conciling and even attaching man to ms
burdens, that he would be more likely to
denounce than thank us, should we phi.
lanthropically offer to ease him OF part OF
his.
Commodore Vanderbilt seems to have
more backbone than Mr.. Aston, and bears
his forty millions with porter-like pluck
We say forty millions, because Mr.. Far,
ton, his biographer, appraises his real
and PERSONAL at that sum. We fancy
Mr.. P.'s figures are little over the mark,
but the Commodore is nevertheless a
very "solid man." and will no doubt
"cut up handsome"
Alexander T Stewart, who is, we pre-
sumo, about as far advanced in the mil
lions as the Commodore, always appears
to us to be working out complicated
sums in compound interest as he walks
the streets Although lightning calcu.
lator, he is Gin public, at least) the most
undemonstrative of men. We are quite
sure that making money is to him a Sc
dative and not an eXeitant Are we mis-
taken in supposing that he was merrlel
and happier years ago as a clerk than ne
now is as the controller of say five ano
twenty million2

The Preachers and Negro Suffrage.

The churches are speaking out upon
the subject of negro suffrage and invok-
ing all the penalties Of the Divine law
mon those who do not think the negroes
should vote: A Baptist assembly, which
metrecently in ST.. Louis, has followed the
example set by their Presbyterian breth-
rem and demanded suffragefor the negro
Questions of church polity and articles
of religious belief are 20 longer dis
cnssed in these ecclesiastical gatherings
but the attention of the ministers is en-
crossed by schemes of party politics and
devices by which to gain or hold politi-
cal Influence. They all send delegations
r, the President to instruct him in his
dnties and show him, not the way to life
eternal. but how his party must be man.
aCed in order to obtain their support
The preachers 60 to Washington City
and exhort Mr.. JOHNSON, not to seek the
forgiveness of his sins and exercise faith
in the merits of the Redeemer' but to
give the negroes the right to vote so that
they may overcome the catholics and the
.scopperheads" at the polls. The prayers
addressed to ANDREW JOHNSON by a
great many of the ministers OF religion"
in these latter days, are more fsrvent'
numerous, and sincere than those al
dressed to Heaven for him.
These things may be all right; at any
rate, they are quite fashionable now; but
il is rather hard for plain people who
have always thought it the appropriate
province of the preachers to point men
TO Heaven and lead the way" to see it in
that light. By their study of the Bible
these men are fitted to explain to Others
its precepts and commands. BY theii
own conduct in life they should he exam
nles for the imitation of those around
them. They are solemnly set apart fo1
this work and, if it is well done, it must
epgross their time. They have no leisure
to devote to the study of political econo
my or the science OF CIVIL government
Upon theological questions, their opinions
are received with Difference and quoted
as authority, because these are the sub
iccts of their study, but nearly nine
tenthS of the males in every reilgiou
congregation know rs much about poli
ties rs the preacher does and are as wei
fitted to form correct political opinion
rs he. Hence it is that, in questions q
rnlitics, the minister's opinion is not Ell
titled 10 and does not receive that degre
of Difference which property attaches
il when il relates To ecclesiastical thing
Ia view Of the greater Importance OF IN
hitter, it is to be regretted that the min
listers of the Gospel do not coniine thel
attention more closely to its claims.
