especially is this the when as In the present instance
the Inauguration OF the new branch OF mining and
meanrgcal industry marks an epoch In the history Of
State Missouri with her mountains OF IRON ore with her
veins and placers OF gaena extending over some 6,OC0
square miles OF territory, with her 10000 square miles OF
area and groupings OF rich copper ore that have been
discovered In fifteen cOunteswith all these, she has
even vet more. Her rich OF znc carbonates and
scates occupy subordinate position IN the long caa
logue Of her mineral The me, II seems has
at last arrived when ingots OF metallic zmc are able
TO substantial testimony TO the opening up OF anew
industry-anoher evidence here OF the varied and IN
exhaustble mineral resources Of the state The new
works, we understand, located at POtosi, a
short distance from the city OF ST. Louis The stua.
ton is one that gives them ready market for
their products and will enable the managers TO avoid all
those heavy expenditures that fall upon those who are
building up metalurgical industries IN the States and
Territories of the Rocky Mountain regions The supply
OF zinc ores in Missouri is said to be immense Now that
capital has been successfully invested in them we may
hope for development OF the industry that will not only
make itself felt through the whole county, but also give
TO the State eventually prominent position as regards
the trade zro of the world This WIDE and profitable
field for mining enterprise has lain too long unoccuped
There are others yet unOccuped Her copper veins
undeveloped Her cobalt and nickel mines arc un-
worked There is hardly end IL would appear to the
opportunities offered in that State to hin who seeks IN
vestmen for his capital in the field OF legitimate mining
or metallurglcal pursuits"

Views Of a Kentucky Member Of the House
on the Snbiect Of the Colored Man.


We extract the following from Mr. Bcck's
recent speech:
Mr. Iligby--I wanted to ask tho gentle
men what hc would do with tho ncgro2
Mr. Beck Il will tell tho gentleman what
j gould do with tho negro. | would protect
him as rircc man, as would protect our wo.
men and children, or any othor person who
had not the capacity for exercising political
rights. I would hold the negro unfit for pol
itical rights, as VIC do tho Indian and tho
Chinaman, for. great variety Of rcasons.-
HIS whole race has shown itself in all time
unft for selfgovcrnmcnt. The Caucassian
race alone has developed that power, and tha.
only under favorable circumstances, by the
.geawthof centuries and by education up to
point whichwc think wc have reached
Many Of tho races even upon the con;inentof
ESrope and Asia are yet unfit for sels.govern-
ment. And to say that the negro, inferior all
6ime past, shall be taken from the rice, cotton
/, and sugar plantations Of the South, in also-
s1te ignorance, degraded, as the Republicans
always claimed, to the level Of the mule ho
drove--to take him from that condition and
place him above his former master, degrade,
Aebase and disfranchise tho white man, and
pat above him man who has not an idea
what to do except to follow the bidding Of the
asmagoguo who seeks to use him---to do thit
IL an outrage upon the white race to which
we belong, and one which the people of thi1
country never will permit.
II would protect the negro in oil his rights
bxt would hold him unfit to exercise politi
cal rights. / will go as far to. protect hin
In his civil rights as any gentleman iron
New England will go And the mon Of m.

Nothing like Consistency.

"Whatovcr is worth doing at ALL" says
the old adage, "is worth doing well" We
believe in this good old saying Wo respect
tho man accordingly who, having a consci-
cntious faith in the principle that tho negro
is in cvcry respect the equal Of the white
man, puts the colorcd individual forward on
on all occasions in tho political foreground
with his faircr complcxioncd fellow w-citizcns.
If the negro is entitled to vote, he is certainly
entitled to hold public Office We maintain
that he is entitled to neither; but tho gon-
tlemen who maintain the contrary arc only
consistent when they carry their theory into
practice, and place Caesar and Sopio bcsido
thcm in the Legislature, in Congress- sc.
they exhibit duplicity Of the most cowardly
kind whom they simply admit that thoy arc
ready to accept from can American ctizon
of African descent" his ballot, but not
his political association with them in that
ballots results
We believe some twelve or fifteen coiorcd
|dolegates havo been elected to tho Chicago
Convention for tho nomination of General
Grant noxt Wednesday. Will they bo ad
united And if not, why not Sixty.ono
colored representatives have been chosen to
the South Carolina House of Representatives.
They, Of course, will be permitted to occupy
their seats, though the farce will bo almost
strong enough to excite tho disgust of tho
sensible world. Still, however disgusting it
1'may be to sec suohsmonin suohe eplacos, it is
but tho legitimate sequence of the doctrine
that the blacks are as good as the Whites in
the presence of man as we'll as in the presence
Of God; and If this bringing of Republican
institutions into public contempt and ridiculc
content tho majority Of tho American people,
we can but submit to the odium and doploro
the consequences. AS long, though, as wo
know that a very large majority Of oupowghi
countrymen are opposed to placing the rcpub-
lio before the world in an attitude SO revolt.
ing, we must be excused if VIC denouncc,
omphatically and continually, tho effort of a
demonstrativo few to forco tho nation into
assumingit against its better Judgment.
