and showing free gold from the out

from some sixty to seventy leads has
been crushed in arastras and mills, and
yielded from $40 as high as S2S7 per ton,
without selection. The work and tim.

Creditable. In prospecting rock from
many leads in this and the other dis

English banker Of the City Of Mexico, has al
ready been announced. His history was re-
markable The vast haciendas of the Escaleras

to his firm; the famous quicksilver mines of the
New Almaden in California had been his proper
.ty; he was shareholder In the silver mines of
Real del Mont; he badlarge estates and cotton
factories at Topic and San Bias. Of San Bias
lie was once British Consul, and he used to
spend about twenty times his salary in hospital.

Barron was accustomed to- observe, when |

he was celebrated as the plaintiff in famous

The VIRGINIA ELECTIo Ns.-Mr John ii.
Gilmer, of Richmond, it will be remembered,
in published remonstrance, objected strenuous
" to the manner in which the recent elections
have been conducted, particularly animadvert-
iug u pom the partisan proclivites Of the super
intendent, Colonel Rose. La reply, Genera !
Schofeld suggested remedy, pal paby, In the
discretion Of the very parties for whose bereht
the frauds complained Of were perpetrated'
namely: an appeal to the convention! 10 this
reply Mr.. Gilmer responds, in substance, as
follows:
GAS regards the extension of the time OF
voting, it is a mere question of power created
and impaired by the law OF Congress- the prop
er solution of which rests with the admlnlstra,o
tive branch of the military department. Ii
there was no power to extend the time, there
there could not be created, outside OF the law
any constraining or forcing functions anywhere
save in theiudcial branch of the United States
Government If the Convention can cstl-
mate, construe, and abridgc, or rescind your
powers derived under and impaired by the
law of Congress, then mnch more canthe peo-
pie of the State, when they come to pass upon
the act OF the convention, as to the adop'
ton or rejection OF the constitution, exercise
the same high functions. In regard to the
vote on the adoption OF the constitution made
by the convention, he says no constitution
passed bya convention, i've or whom, members
returned from tbiscty, were elected under inc
circumstances attending the third day ant
night of the voting, will ever be sanctioned by
the people of Virginia He then says: l
you remove the power to pass on your owl
acts to the convention, it will naturally an%
legitmately pass from that body TO the pco
pie; and no one who knows anything abou
the real popular sentiment OF the State h'ghi!
conservative and eminently law abiding as !
is. can for moment doubt what action woul'
be had in the premises He concludes b.
saying: What is now passing will tell witt
fearful import on our whole country and tn
destiny Of our children, when you and sha
have passed away and sleep with our fathers

FOREIGN EWs-The latest kilograms from
Italy confirm the fact that the Italian troops
have crossed the frontier, and give the further
information that Garibaldi has twenty-five
battalions under him in front of Rome. The
reaetionaly policy eff Victor Emmanuel is said
to have created tremendous agitation through
out his kingdom.
The Pontifcal troops have all been withdrawn
from the country and are concentrated within
the Notifications Of Rome The Garlbaldlans
have torn up.the railway between Clvlta Vecchia
and Rome, and the army OF King Victor En-
manuel is advancing in the direction OF the lat
ter city.
Count Bismarck is said to have given an as.
surance to the Italian Government that he will
not allow France to make war on Italy on &C.
count of the Papal complication.
The Emperor Of Austria has consented 10
the proposed Conference on Roman affairs but
the Pope refuses to be party to it, and Eng
land and Russia have also declined to join the
Conference The French semi official journals
state that the advance of the Italian troops
across the frontiers was ordered without the
consent France.
Two policemen were shot on "Wednesday
night at Dublin and instantly killed. The
murders are directly charged to the Feniaus.
The perpetrators have not been discovered.
Colonel Kelly, who was rescued from the po-
lice in Manchester is said to have reached
France and will soon leave for the j. S. In
Dublin the trial Of the Fenian prisoners is now
going on. An application was made for a
mixed jury of Catholics and Protestants, but il
was refused General Warren, who is one OF
the prisoners to be tried, declined Counsel, and
on the ground that he was a citizen OF the U.
S. refused to recognize the jurisdiction OF the
court.
