Letter from Jack White.

The following letter, received by b.

formerly President of the Virgini" MI
ners' Union, will be read with interest
BY the numerous friends aud aequaint-

creating such An immense sensation
among fortune hunters at the present
time:
Tur,suRE CRY, WHITE PINE DIsr.,l /
December 9th, 1868.
Iarriyed here safe, after a very stormy
massage, much like our mines, better
appreciated after practical experience.
The wealth Of this district is beyond
computation, and we find rich ore al
most anywhere. knocking the expert
ence Of educated theorists into a cooked
hat. You should see to believe. The
rich ore is found inclosed Ia a solid
limestone formation, consequently it is
all blasting ground" Work seems
plenty at S. per day. The prices OF
provisions are as follows: Flour, SIS TO
$50 per 100 lbs ; butter, 81; potatoes,
l6 to Is cents ; coffee, ca cents, and
other things in proportion. There is
no boarding or lodging house in town.
Lumber is SECS per thousand feet, and
four-horse teams command $50 to $40
per day for working. Hay is 10 cents
and barley l21 cents per pound. Lots
in the center Of town, % by 100 feet IN
size, are worth from $500 to $1,000
each. This is n rich mining camp, and
no mistake. To imagine this place you
suppose Silver City to be at the foot oil
the Geiger Grade-call. it Hamilton
and Gold Canyon running south toward
Virginia (which you will suppose to be
Treasure City), and Shermantown is
situated as Flowery is from virginia.
You will observe. as the Snowman says,
the gentle activity is south instead OF
north, as in Gold Canyon. Well, the
best lodges discovered are on the cast
side instead Of the west, rs with you.
oh ! this will be a charming country for
experts. Towering up and opposite on
tue west from Treasure City, are the
White Pine Mountains, or d" base metal
range" seven miles in length n OF
magnificent beauty, compared to which
Mount Davidson is dwarfsh. This is
and will be n splendid place for a bust
mes. a to locate in. Lots will in

Charley looked and no doubt felt gay.

and a host Of Gold Killers are in

and others, too numerous to mention,
are here. Keller Of Dayton and korn

also here. 1t only costs fifty cents to

MAINE LAW GONE UP.-Twelve years
ago, the opposition to the democracy were
strenuous advocates of the so.called Maine
liquor law. This law originated in the
State of Maine, where it was adopted by
a.vote of the fanatic and bigoted people
of that state, and has been in operation
for about fifteen years. It prohibited
the sale of liquor in any quantity, and au-
thorized any body to destroy the property
of any neighbor suspected of drinking OF
owning liquor. Like everything else the
opposition to the democracy have origi-
mated and support for while. this Maine
liquor law has had its day and played out.
A few days ago the legislature, nearly all
radical, of that state, repealed, by a vote
of 100 to 80, the famous and infamous
Maine law. In noticing this action Of
the legislature, the New Haven Register
well and truly says Prehaps so unwise q
law-one that created more trouble and
bad feeling, and resulted in SO little good
was never before on the statute book of
a New England state and its history,
and fate, ought to be standing monu.
ment to the folly Of attempting to control
the opinions or the appetites of men, By
law. -" Quincy Herald.

Advice to . Dyspcptic.

You ask me to prescribe for you. You
expect medicine, perhaps you hope for
whisky, just now the rage for chronic
maladies, but I shall give you nothing to
swallow you have swallowed too much
already. OF all the maladies dyspepsia
is the most distressing; to get rid Of its
horrors you would part with your right
arm; I believe you but would you part
with portion Of your table luxuries? ? I
fear not; but presuming you are in ear
nest, / will prescribe for you.
/. Rise early, drecs warm and go out
if strong. walk; if weak, saunter. Drink
three times--of all cold baths, this is the
best for dyspepsia; after half an hour Or
more, come in for breakfast.
2. For breakfast eat piece Of good
steak half as large as your hand, slice
of coarse bread and baked apple eat
very slowly; talk very pleasantly with
your neighbors avoid hot biscuits and
strong coffee; drink nothing.
3. Digest for an hour and then to
your work I trust it is in the open air.
Work hard till noon, and then rest body
and mind till dinner sleep little ; drink
water.
4. For dinner-two or three O'clock
eat slice of mutton or fish as large as
your hand, potato, two or three spoon
fuls of other vegetables, q slice of coarse
bread give more than half an hour to
this meal; use no drink.
5. After dinner, play anaconda for an
hour now for the social; for pleasant
games good time.
6. No supper little toast and tea,
even, for supper, will make your recovery
very slow.
7. In warm room bathe your skin
with cold water, hastily, and go to bed in
we'll ventilated room before 8 o'clock.
Follow this prescription for three
months and your stomach viii be 50 far
recovered that you can indulge, for some
time, in all sorts of irregular and gluttin-
GUS eating; or if you have resolved in the
fear of heaven, to present your bodies,
living sacrifices unto God, and will con-
tinue to eat and work like Christian,
your distressing malady viii soon be for
gotten.-Dio Lepis, H. d.

a DARKEY JURY.-A friend of ours
vouches for the truth of the following :
At recent session of one Of the courts,
in South Carolina, an entire negro Jury
was empanelled. A cases was brought be-
fore them--the witnesses examined, and
the attorneys made their respective argu-
ments. The Judge, after laying down the
law, and recapitulating the testimony,
gave the papers into the bands of the
Foreman--an intelligent looking darkey
with instructions that, as soon as they
found verdict, to bring it in without de-
lay.
Thirty minutes or more elapsed, when
the Jury returned, headed by the Fore
man, and stood before the Judge.
As the Foreman appeared to hesitate,
and to wear disappointed look, the
Judge asked
Mr.. Foreman, have you found verdict
"No, Massa Judge, We haben't found
EN-" replied the ebony Juryman.
"It's q very plain case, " said the Judge.
"Can't help it, massa, couldn't see it. =
"0n what grounds I"
1--WE didn't look into de grounds,
Massa Judge" replied the Foreman ode
ossifcr didn't take us out into de grounds,
but he took us into a room, and locked
us in, and tole US when we found dever-
dict, he wud left US out So we began 70
find de verdick, and searched ebery nook,
corner, crebice, and cherry ting dar was in
dat room, but we foun no verdick-no,
nofhn OBJ de kind dar."

POETRY Y.
MOTHERS GRAVE.


The trembling dow-drops fall
Upon the shutting flowers, like souls at rest
The stars shine gloriously, and all
Save me are blest.
Mother. love thy grave
The violet. with tho blossoms blue and wild
Waves DER thy head. When will IL wave
Above thy child2
'Tis sweet flower, yet must
It's bright leaves to the morning tempest bow
Dear mother, tits thine cnblem-dust
Is on thy brow.
And could love to die
To leave untasted life's dark, bitter streams
by thee, as hrst in childhood, lie,
And share thy dreams.
And must linger here,
To stain the plumage Of my sinless years,
And mourn the hopes of childhood dear
With bitter tears.
Aye, must linger here,
A lonely branch upon withercd tree,
Whose last frail leaf, untimely scro.
Went down with thee.
OFT from life's withered bower,
In still communion with the past, turn
Aud muse on thee, the only flower
In memory urn.
And when the evening pale
Bows like moaTner on the dim blue wave
stray TO hear the night winds wall
Around thy grave.
Where is thy spirit aown
gaze aboFe-thy look IL imaged there
listen. aud thy gentle tone
Is on the air. q. d. Prentice.

The PARTY OF HERoEs.-The radicals
may be said to perpfectly revel in heroes.
There is Butler, the hero of Big Bethel
and Fort Fisher; Grant, the hero of
Chepultepec and Snickersville; Schenck,
the hero of Vienna; Banks, the hero of
the Shenandoah and Red Rivers Wal
lace, the hero of Monocacy Junction ;
Logan, the hero of no place in particu-
lar; Brewnlow, the hero of the whole
route from Knoxville to Cincinnati, over
which he ran at the approach of the ene-
my to the former place-leaving his fam
lily behind; Chandler, the hero of Bull
Run, and Pope, the hero of the saddle,
who found that defeat was in the front,
and not in the rear.-Detroit Free Press.
Great injustice is done in the above
paragraphsto Gen. Grant, who was not
only the hero of Chepultepec and Snick-
ersville, but was also the hero of the soup
tureen, and rode the pony in the circus
equal to the other mans monkey. Give
the devil his due. Grant isn't our can
didate for President-but, still, we don't
want to see injustice done him. When
his great achievements are referred to,
the soup tureen and the monkey and pony
ought not to be omitted, Let him have
all the credit to which he is fairly entitled.
