great error that we commit is that wo

drinks. This not only dilutes the saliva.
but weakens the gastric juice after tho

Gold and Silver Mining Statistics.

THE report of Mr.. j. Ross Browne, who was
Commissioner OF the Treasury Department
for the collection of statistical information
concerning the gold and silver mines of the
Western States and Territories, shows the
total products of the mines of gold and silver
in our country during the past year to have
bean one hundred and six millions Of dollars.
California still takes the lead, her product
being estimated at twenty millions of
dollars; Montana comes next, with yield
of eighteen millions; Idaho and Colorado
are each put down at seventeen millions;
Nevada at sixteen millions; Oregon at
eight millions; and all other places at five
millions. This product is more than four
times as great as was the annual product of
all the mines in the world less than thirty
years ago.
To those who are acquainted with the facts
in regard to the resources and development
of the mines of our precious metals, it is
evident that gold and silver mining is des-
tined, at no distant day, to become one of the
most important branches Of our national in
dustry. Indeed, it has already attained to
that position. The value of the production OF
ron, coal, copper, lead, and salt in the whole
country for the year 1850, as given by the
census returns, was less than one hundred
millions of dollars. The total value of cotton

The productive quality of quartz lode may
easily be tested before extensive improve
ments are made. The product itself never
lacks market, can never be in excess of the
demand, and is easily and cheaply trans
ported. The only necessary hazard is in re-
gard to honest and prudent management-a
risk which has to be assumed in all branches
OF business.
Mr.. Brownies report contains many facts
of interest bearing the mineral resources
of the West, and is a valuable contribution to
the statistical history of the country.
