MORE GoLp.--News from the mines in Colorado shows that the recently discovered method of treating quartz rock containing the precious metals, is working to a great advan- tagc. h one case, ore that paid but six dol lars per ton by the old way of working it, now pays sixty dollars by the new process. In another instance, what arescalled .stailings" that is, the refuse earth and rock carried out at the tail of the washing machine, and from which but four dollars per ton had been origin ally extracted-were .aken in hand and treat ed according to the new method, and one hun dred and fifty dollars per ton were extracted cont nuously. Other examples are at hand, but these will suffice to show that the refuse earth that we supposed to be exhausted by the miners who first handled it, is to be made to add largely to our mineral wealth by 8 simple application of means derlved from the science of chemistry.

On the 2Sd day of January, 1866, THoNA aged eleven years. Little Tommic Nc. is no more. He was sweet little boy, loved by every body, affec tionate to his sister and obedient to his moth CT. Fare thee we'll Sad and slow the church. bells tolling, Death has his arrow sped; And from this sinful world below, Another soul has fled. He scarce had reached the bloom of youth, Ere he was cslled away, The opening bud was stricken down, To wither and decay. He died where his father died With friends around the bed, A sister by, mother near,
 To ease his sinking head. No more his voice will greet our ears, These streets he'll walk no more, His voice is hushed, and mute in death, His boyhood days are o'er In it's last silent resting place His body now we lay, Here it shall moulder into dust, His memory live for aye. Then mother mourn, your Tommie's gone, For him in sorrow weep, For him who sleeps in quiet peace, That never ending sleep. - Rest now in peace thy race is run, And heaven thy home shall be, Farewell Tommie, we'll miss thee now, Yes, we will weep for thee.

THE PHILOSOPHY OF ADvERTIsING.-It is q well known maxim of political economy that desire creates demand and that demand is the stimulus of trade. Whatever, then, produces desire for the articles of trade promotes it. This theory is well understood by tailors and milliners. The former have their 'swalking advertisements" in every community, who custom. The latter prospers notoriously by introducing the 'lasest fasLions,' and when they have be decked some of the 'tleadersa in their richest and finest fabrics, or set them of with their .ove of bonnet y their advertising is wisely done. For an acute observer has said of the ladies, that they dress for each others eyes, and what lady is willing to be surpassed in fine or fashionable dress? But many tradesmen cannot avail themselves of the principle in this way. They must content themselves with display of their wares in show cases or at shop doors and windows, or if they wish to create general desire for their commodities, they must advertise. Let the people thus know what there is to sell, and where II IS 10 De Hau, tHu the PeoPie "aHo IL, Desire is engcndered, and this creates demand. Many of the most successful merchants have made their fortunes by generous advertising When ones name appears in all the papers, he becomes known, as it were, to everybody
 When he adyertises largely, to many it is primo facie evidence that he is selling largely, that he is successful in trade, that he has many patrons, that his large trade enables him to sell cheap, and everybody wants to buy at his popular, and especially at his cheap store Begin poor man, and let your first years profits be judiciously used in advertising, and YOU are worth more at the end of the second wear than if you had remained hid in your corner. We commend this philosophy to our rcaders-to advertisers of every class.

 TnE OLDEST MAN IN THE UNITED SrATEs.-- There is now in Kansas City in this State a man, Jose penno, who, the Kansas City Journal declares, is the oldest man i'll the United States. He does not know exactly when he was born nor what his age is; but his expcri- ence, as related by himself, tend strongly to confirm the Journals statement. He was q man at the time Canada was invaded by Gen. Montgomery in 1775, but does not remember his age at that date says he recollects that he was in the woods splitting rails, when the news came of the advance of Montgomery upon Quebeck. At the close of the American Revolution he left Canada, ahd settled in tho then Louisiana Territory, west of the Missis sippi from which time he was almost con,in- ually for some fifty years in the employment of various fur companies as trapper, in the mounting regions of the west During this time he was at the battle of New Orleans, under General Jackson, and states then 1815) he was very ey-headed.

Mulkey. with whom the old man now resides His services for Major Drpps continued until some seventeen years ago, since which lime he has not attempted to hunt. The history of his long life in the mountins is replete with strange aud startling incidents, of hairbreadth escapes from Indians and wild beasts, of star vation and suffering il the mountain snows, and other scenes peculiar to the life of Q trapper. He is nearley the last of the old stock fthc trappers. Bent, Carson Bridger, etc., are but boys to him, and he will scarcely permit to them the appellation of s'mountan men.n For the last fifteen years, since he become too old to hunt, he has been kindly cared for by the daughter of Major Dripps and her husband, who have furnished him a comfortable house. and have his meals regul- arly sent to him. The old man is in excellent health, and always cheerful and happy--neyer was sick a day in his life, attends church (Catholie) with great regularity, and takes much interest in all that is going on.
