"Giye me place to rest my lever on" say
Archimldes, "and will move the world."-

Medicus of the olden time, 'sand / will curt

In one sense, both Of these learned pundits
were the veriest charlatans.o t They knew
there was no place to rest their lever on, either
to move the world or cure disease. Mocha.

profession was but another name for sorcery,

But these latter days have borne unto us
something more than even superstition and its
crew ever dreampt of in their maddest philoso-

was theory Of yesterday is fact to-day, and all

The foregoing list was received by
Gov. Humphreys, with the following
note, which speaks for itself:
RALEIGH, n. c., Feb. 26, 1867.
DEAR SIR: / send you list of Con-
federate soldiers from Mississippi,
who are buried here. These, with
many Others from every State OF what
was once the Southern Confederacy,
are buried at various places in and
around Raleigh, and many OF them
where they fell upon the approach of
Sherman's army. We are collecting
them as fast as possible and placing
them together, and doing all we can
with our small means to make our
Soldiers Cemetery an attractive spot.
We have divisions assigned to each
State, and a pest six inches square,
capped, with the name, regiment and
State placed at every grave in the
cemetery.
This is all we can do at present. Our
Legislature appropriated $500 for a
monument, and we intended having
every soldiers name inscribed upon it,
with a. number corresponding to one
on the post, but we are fearful that we
cannot get a monument for that sum
large enough to contain ALL the names.
In case we cannot, can Mississippi or
individuals in Mississippi, help up to
mark in some lasting manner, the last
resting places of her hero dead ? The
number is so small in comparison with
Georgia and South Carolina, that
large sum would not be required to
procure some kind of tablet, or
headstones. We can get plain m ar
BILE slab with the inscription for So.
The marble is not very thick, however,
but it is thought will answer very we'll
It would give us great pleasure to do
it all ourselves, but our expenses in
clearing, fencing and removing athe
bodies are so greats and we have had |
so little help out of our own little city, |
that We viii scarcely have enough to
complete our arrangements s. ~
We know the poverty.of the coun-
try and feel &c here, and IL You think
you cannot help us we viii not attri-
butte it to want of patriotism or want
of appreciation Of the valor or virtues
of our .countrymen E have written
similar letters to the Governors Of
South CarolinA Georgia and Alabama.
Very respectfully,

Quite an inaccurate pen and link por-
trait of Gen. Price has been going the
rounds Of the papers, from the pen of
George Alfred Townsend, which rep

curious ones can see the General about
10 o'clock every morning walking
down Olive street. He stands erect
and fully six feet. His hair is silYery
white. His manner and air are the
mildest Of any man I ever met. From
beneath beating brow a mild blue
eye peers, full of kindness; while his
voice is as musical and pleasant as
woman's.o Said one of his men to me
one day, CHATS Gen. Price" as he
came in sight, dressed in the most
scrupulous black, carrying gold
headed cane ''and I only say what
every man of his regiment. viii tell
you, I love that man." The general
stopped; and greeted my companion
warmly and with such glow of pleas

rous lies and Misrepresentation of
brutality and cruelty could be imputed
as they were during the generals stay

LATEST FROM LEMHI.

The following items of local news are ex-
tracted from the Salmon City Ne,c8 of July
28th and August 1st
Of the Basin there is but little of interest to
write. What men are now at work there are
mostly doing well. We have heard very little
complaint among the miners, during q recent
visit, although some merchants are complain
ing OF hard times. With the merchants it is
dull. we have no doubt, for twice as many of
that class rushed into Leesburg with stocks of
goods as were needed. When business settles
down to its proper level, then we will have no
more complaint of dull times. Several large
firms in that place propose moving their stocks
to Salmon City soon. Around Sierra the wa
ter has about failed and very little work is be-
ing done. We understand ditch is being
brought on to the head of Sierra Gulch, which
will furnish an ample supply of water. The
miners on Smiths Gulch are still taking out
good pay. This could be said of other lOcali-
ties.
About four weeks ago man named Kline
started from Leesburg to go to Idaho City,
through the almost impossible mountains He
got sick, after being out few days, became
bewildered, lost his way, and was nearly dead
from starvation when he was discovered by the
county officials of Idaho county, who admins
tered to his immediate wants and brought him
into Leesburg. He is now under the care of
DIR. Stuart, of that place, and will soon be al!
right again. He has o son in the Boise Basin,
whom he intended visiting
Information is wanted of William Mollison,
who left Idaho City last Fall for Lemhi mines
by his wife, who lately arrived from the East
Any information concerning him will be thank
fully received. Address Mrs. MOllison, at the
office Of the Mining Ne,cS, Salmon City, Idaho

e. K. Patterson, County Recorder and Dep
uty County Clerk Of Idaho county, left Lees
burg on his return trip for Florence, July Is,
without having appointed any deputies in
Lemhi. He deferred the matter until he
should get back to Florence, the county seat.
Deputy Sheriff Ramey is busily engaged in
following up delinquent debtors in Lemhi. -
GrasshOppers have almost totally destroyed
the crops in Lemhi valley. Several acres of
vegetables on Salmon river bottoms were en-

BY the avalanche of last Saturday we are
furnished the following news items:
John Cruikshank has nearly completed a
foundry for iron castings, near Silver City.
The last clean up of the Orc Fino Ore aver
aged $40 per ton for q run of 20 tons. The
mine yields richer than ever before, and the

Rock taken 'just as it came" from the Bax-
ter ledge paid at the rate of $40 per ton.
The death of james A. Banks is recorded.
1t seems that he was murdered by Indians
while fishing in Paradise Valley a few daya
ago. The deceased was native of Pennsyl-
vania, and aged 80 years He was formerly
member of the California Legislature, and also

PRACTICAL NEGRO EQUALITY.-We find
the following editorial paragraph in late

An admiring friend, who lately visited Thad Ste

Radical friends against too great freedom in their
structures upon custom that has prevailed rather ex
tensivey at the Souththat of crossing the black ana
white races He says he found that Thad Stevena

great Radical chief seduced from her husband a fun
