one mile above the mouth Of North River,

The crowd at the capitol to-day was as
great as at any time since the Inauguration.
The Senators were most run down by ardent
and eager constituents, who make lively
lobby indeed In favor Of the repeal Of tenure
of-office law, the continuance OF which on
the statute books is SO annoying to those
who want Office right away. regret that
the a.imus Of most Of these gentlemen In
this matter Is not higher one. But so the
ofiice-seeking world is prone to "wag" on all
such occasions.

SALE OF VALUABLE PROPERTY By HALL &
Ross.-Messrs. Hall d Ross sold yesterday
!26 acres of very valuable land, containing
copper mines, to R. W. Clapp, of this city.
The price paid was $4,000. These mines are
of the very richest quality. The vein, we
understand, is about twelve feet In width.
The samples which have been taken out
have yielded forty per cent. This property
for mining purposes possesses peculiar advan-
tages over most lands of this character In the
State Of Virginia, lts situation being only
about three hundred yards from a nayIgablo
stream by which the copper can be readily
shipped to market, It possesses almost equal
advantages for railroad transportation, as 1t
Is situated only about two and half miles
from the town Of Leesburg, In Loudoun
county Mr.. Clapp, we understand, goes TO
boston for the purpose Of interesting capt.
talists In his recent purchase, and with view
of working the mines successfully.

Sam. Bolton, a darkey, was as
sauIted on Thursday last at MI. Fields
Mace some miles from town OF the
Horn Lake road, by one Monroe
Thomas, another negro, who shot at
him. On Saturday Thomas, armed
with a pistol, came on Sam, who was
| out hunting, being armed with a sin
gle barrel shot gun loaded with small
! shot. Thomas got close enough, as he
thought to make a sure shot, but " his
hand trembled," and he missed Sam.
The latter thought that it was about
time for him to commence shooting
and so raised his gun and damned
away" ~plastering Monroe with squir-
rel shot in a manner that showed the
old single barrel" to be a powerful
seatterer. Monroe gave a howl and
dropped, and Sam. broke for town
and gave himself up to the Second
district police. Monroe's old woman
has been picking shot out Of him ever
since the occurrence, and now has a
gourd full, which she will have on
hand at the trial to-day.
