A company boring for oil or the farm
of VIM Cunningham, situated in Jack
son county, West Virginia, III going
down. went through a vein of metal
about eighteen inches thick. The com
pany took no particular notice Of the
borings, bat continued drilling until
they became satisfied their efforts in
search for oil were fruitless, when they
abandoned the we'll, IN recurring to
the strata through which the drill
had passed, the owners thought of the
metal vein, and Immediately concluded
to have it analysiZed A quantity Of
the metal behring's was sent to New
York, where it has been assayed and pro-
nounced to yield ninety eight per cent. Of
pure silrer. Underneath this vein, which
is three hundred aud forty feet from the
surface, is vein of silver quartz tonr
feet thick The gentleman from whom
we learn the foregoing facts, gives the
following account Of the strata in the
we'll: First forty feet. hard flint rock I;
next two hundred feet soft soap stone
then a layer of blue rock; next soap
stone: then the silver vein eighteen
inches thick next four feet Of quartz,

the sand found in the gold mines of Cal

THE Indiana Republicans, when they
met in convention, we're not exactly GER
tain into whose hands they might fall;
so they endorsed both the President and
Congress. One half of each voter there
is JoHNsoNIAN and the other Radical
half white and half black. The black
part is said to be spreading in some, and
the white in others.

Scrofula. or Kings Evil,

is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part Of 1t. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which 1t may
not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously
caused by metcural disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the vcncrca Infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary III the con-
stitution, descending " from parents to children
unto the third and fourth gcncratipni " indeed,
it seems to he the rod of Ilim who says, 81
will visit the iniq,ities OF the fathers upon
their children"
It's effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulccrous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
t,lberclcs IN the glands, swclligs; and on
the surface, cruptions or sures. 1his foul cor
ruption, which gcndcrs in the blood, dcprcsscs
the cncr9ics Of life, SO that scroitlos constitu-
tions not only suffer from scrorulo,is COM
plants, but they have lar less power TO with
stand the attacks of other diseases; consc-
quently vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrufulouS in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this tuint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
CLIMATES the human family has its origin directly
in this scrorulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs, usr from or
are aggravated by the Same cause.
