STRIKING 1T RrcH-A short time ago miner pur-
chased claim on Mobiles Gulch, opposite this city,
and got it at low price because the former owners
believed it to have been nearly worked out The new
owner started in to work it on different PLAN He
finally came to place which showed that but little
work had been done upon it. The former owners, ne
learned passed it over ground that would not pay
for stripping The present owner thought different
w. and in proof of the correctness OF his Judgment
he has found the claim to be exceedingly rich IN that
SPOT. and has taken out large aggregate OF gold
The claim still yields richly in that spot and he be-
eves that it will last nearly in the same way for an
other season. And he has or two other spots
which had been barely worked by the former owners
vet to commence upon. This is another OF the not
very infreouent instances in which parties believe
their claims to be exhausted nearly worthless be-
fore they have half worked them and then sell at low
figures to some energetic miner, who applies both
industry and skill in working the ground, and as IN
the case before us, reaps handsome reward for his
labors Before the claim holders in this Basin sell
their claims would it not be prudent for them to as
certain in what other known mining region can they
find better or even equally good diggings.

DIR. BELLOWS ON THE GERMANS. Rev. DR..
Bellows writes from Germany to the Liberal
Chrtsttan:-"No class of persons in Germany
has touched me so much as the class just above
the peasants and just below the proprietors-
the lowest stratum of the middle class. Serious,
modest, intelligent, humble, industrious, self
respectful, there is, especially among the
women, certain promise of spiritual life au
unworldliness guaranteed by their inability to
participate in the pleasures of those rove them,
and their distaste for the habits of those below
them, which seems to say that from them is
likely to spring a new generation of souls, un-
spoiled by empty metaphysical subtletles, and
uncorrupted by worldliness."

PARTING or REv. NEwMAN HALL AND HIS
PEOPLB.-It is known that the Rev. Newman
Hall, of Surrey Chapel, who was such just and
useful friend of our country all through the Re
bellion, is about to visit this country, where he
will not fail TO receive a cordial greeting. A
crowded meeting was held August IL, ut his
chapel, to take leave OF the pastor. Mr. Hall,
in his address, said that the pain of leaving
home and friends and his public work for so
long, and TO go 80 far, would have prevailed
over motives of mere pleasure; but in addition
to the natural wish to see that great country
and its noble people, he bad public and minis
terial motives-he hoped to aid in cementing
that friendship between the two countries on
which the cause Of freedom and civilization so
much depended. He also wished TO avail him
self of the special opportunities which
we're presented in his case for preach
ing the Gospel. He adverted to the
course of lectures and meetings at Surrey Chapel
and elsewhere during the American struggle,
and TO the part he and others had taken in the
cause of union and emancipation. 1t was mat
ter for congratulation that no one sentiment
had been uttered during the struggle which was
not verified by the result. The North had
tTiumphed. They had not attacked Europe.
Their army had been peacefully disbanded. Th
proclamation had not been a dead letter.
Slavery had been entirely abolished. There
had been no vengeance. Not one person had
been put TO death for rebellion. America was
united and free. The part he had taken in pro.
noting a sound public opinion op the subject
had been estimated in America far more than It
deserved. But the publicity given in that
country to addresses delivered in Surrey Chapel,
had made the name of its minister 80 known
that multitudes would desire TO hear him when
he preached the Gospel, This was his chief
motive in this journey.

The Reported Termin elton Of the Cre-
tan War.

The Reported Termin atiOn of the Cre-
tan War;
FOR about the tenth time we are told that the
Sublime Porte has issued a circular note
informing the various European Powers Of the
termination of the war in Gambia. Like the
boy who cried "wolf" too often, we have
grown to doubt all the utterances fthe Sultan,
and are at a loss to-day to determine whether
the war is really ended or not. Were il not
that in the present despatch no claim is laid to
a Turkish victory, we would not hesitate to
proclaim it, like its numerous predecessors, a
falsehood uttered for political purposes. But
in this utteranoe we find that the peace an
nounced is said to have been brought about
by an offer of a general amnesty to all insur-
gents, and promise of many and radical
reforms. Still we do not place much reliance
on the rumor, and rather impute it to desire
to allay agitation in America in view of the
resolution of Congress recently presented to
the Sultan, than to a desire TO state facts
which have occurred in the gallant little
island of Crete. We hope that the NORMA
tion is not correct. What is desired for
Crete is freedom, not compromise, and did she
but hold out in her courageous resistance a few
weeks longer, independence must be hers.

An International System of Coinage.
The report of Mr.. Samuel B. Ruggles, Com
missioner from this country to the recent
Diplomatic Monetary Convention of Paris,
shows that, at that Convention,
delegates. duly accredited, were in attend

America, embracing an aggregate population
exceeding three hundred millions, The lead
Ing features of the plan are:-

international reform will at once be aoceded to
by Congress. The progress of civilization
and the triumphs of science and art are bind

to this unifcation of feeling than the adoption
of uniform system of coinage by the leading
