Jus, in from the Kearsarge eountry,
gives us a few items relative to that Sec
ton. Owing to the deep SHOWS and
severe weather Of the past winter very
little was done in the way Of develop
mcnt in the mines Of Kearsarge district.
Charley Hill, foreman of the original
Kearsarge mine, has been running a
tunnel all winter, which he finished
some six weeks ago, cutting the ledge
about 1000 feet below the groupings, at
which point the vein is found to be be-
tween three and four feet thick. The
Kearsarsc mill will be put TO work
shortly, running on ore from the mine,
which is expected to yield very richly.
Almarin Il. Paul, formerly of this town,
is erecting two irst-class roasting fur
naces at the Silver Sprout mill, which
will be completed in about q week, and
as soon rs ore can be transported from
the Silver Sprout Wholesome hro miles
distant--the mill will be set actively ut
work. The ore is abundant, Of a rich
quality, and will doubtless yield very
satisfactory returns. The Lafayette
mine is also in a very prosperous condi-
tiou, with plenty Of good ore out ready
for working. The company propose mill
ing n large quantity of it o In Ala
bama district, some eight or ten miles
south of Kearsarge, on the same side of
Owens River Valley, Thomas Passmore
and VIM. Lake have recently discovered
good placer gulch diggings, which yield
$40 n day 20 the hand. The gold is
very fine, being worth Sl7 so per ounce,
but the diggings appear to be spotted
and not so reliable as could be wished.
Considerable prospecting is being done
,herenbouts. The silver mines of Cerro
Gordo district, on the opposite side OF
the Valley, are attracting a great deal
of attention, and II rich yield of bullion
is anticipated therefrom during the pres
ent season.

siderable expense to the Society aud OF
no benefit so far as finances are con-
cerned. They also recommend that the

WoRMy.-A mau at Virginia was yes
terday safely delivered Of a huge tape
worm only twenty-seven feet long, which
he has carried in his stomach or con-
,iguous regions for the last two years,
feeling the critter move quite frequently
during that time. DR.. Desch expelled
this lengthy worm. Most of the Good
Templars are liable to become wormy
on account Of the immense number OF
little wrigglers and other n~uisances
contained in the water they drank so
c~opiously of, and which are never found
in whisky, even with the aid OF the most
powerful microscope. Wackelsby joined
the Good Templars awhile ago, and his
medical adviser already tells him he
has got ,ubercles on his lungs, aud that
he is very liable to become food for
worms eventually.
