REPoKT on MINING INTEREsTs.-The report of
James W. Taylor, commissioner for the collection
OF statistics Of gold and silver mining sent TO the
House, on the 10th, by the secretary OF the trea.
sury, gives general review Of mining operations
for 1861. Among other topics prominence is
given to the probabilities Of increasing the water
supply on the western plains by means of artess1
wells, the recent discoveries of coal along the
eastern hases of the Rocky Mountains, aud the
most practicable means Of reducing oppressive
rates Of transportation west Of the Rocky Noun
tans. This last discussion, he says, brings for
ward the necessity Of a national railroad system
through the northern and southern as well as the
central tier Of the Western States and Territories.
IL s understood the secretary of the treasury has
continued the mining commission Of the depart
ment, directing especial inquiry into the best
methods for the economical reduction Of obstinate
sulphumets which had hithereto obstructed the
reduction of gold bearing rock.

splendid manuscript. which an artist the most re.

ginning TO end, with the prodigious patience 50
remarkable in the missals Of monks Of the mid
die ages. II is ornamented all through with
drawings and EN- bazoned vignettes 10 the style
Of the sixteenth century. The book contains one
hundred and twenty-five pages, of which thirty
are truly remarkable-one especially, the title
page. In the center Of every capital rises or
curls leaf, flower, or bird the gold which
is laid on certain squares is either very lustrous,
dim, or dotted, and appears to be an incrusta.
tion rather than applied. An idea can be con-
veyed OF the perseverng labor spent on the work
when Il is remembered that, the princes name
being Louis Eugene Napoleon, the capital L, be.
