New York, Jan. IA member of
the British Parliament, Daniel Chad
wick, addressed the Chamber of Com
merce yesterday. He comes to this
country as representative Of British
capitalists interested in American rail
roads. He said the foreign shareholders
were under panic in regard to their
American investments; they are frigh-
tened about injunctions and contradic-
tory Jurisdictions. He believed if there
was steadiness in our railroad manage
ment, many English capitalists would
gladly invest here largely.
He had seen the President, several
leading Senators and Gov. Hoffman on
the subject, and his suggestion was that
railroad that passes through several
States the Federal and not the State
courts should have jurisdiction.

MoNoPoLIEs.-Many persons are now
under heavy anxiety about monopolies.
What are monopoies? Simply combin'
a ions of Capital against Labor. This is
all right in the course Of human events.
Since the world was created the result has
been the same. Capital is adhesive, by
natural law, while muscle work is neces-
sarily in antagoni.m by the same law.
r .ilway directors see their interests in
quiet competition because they know
that in the end they will get the traffic of
freight and passenger transportation.
Why quarrel? 1t is better to combine
profits, meet at New York or Chicago, sell
the stock, increase it by new issue Git

French wines and wonder ut the innocence
Of those who bite.

Diamonds on the Pacific Coast.

Diamonds have been found in some fifteen or twenty different localities in California, but all were of small size, the largest Of which we have uear,l not exceeding ft grains Jess than two carsts. The so-called Cali fornia diamond" of the shops, is only benuti- fully clear crystal quartz. The true diamond is found in the gravel deposits of the gold mines, but there is no reason To suppose that washings for it would be remunerativc. In Arizona, quite recently, diamonds have been found of greater size. One brought to this city is said to weigh about three carats and ,o be worth $500 and the miners are believed to have ignofanily thrown away much larger ones. no, recognizing them in the rough. Diamond washing has never been profitable in any country, except with slave or convict labor, as in Brazil and Siberia, until the re- markablc discoveries made in South Africa, where a few adVcuturers have been enriched by the search for them, and some of the largest specimens known in modern washings have been picked up. It might be worth while for the Arizona miners to acquAlnt themselves with the appearance ot diamonds
 in the rough, and keep look out for them.
 We atc swarc of the fact that diamonds have been found in Arizona, but the finding of them has been purely accidental. No one to our knowledge has ever paid the subject R single thought Perhaps it would be wise f ome of our enterpFisins prospectors to give it their attention.

THE Nevada papers are either poorly post ed, concerning the Bradshaw Mining District, near this place, or they wilfully misrepre- sent. Probably ali the information obtained by them in reference to these mines, is ob- tained through the columns of the MINER, and they never read anything of the kind in this paper. We copy the following:
 "Bradshaw District, Arizona, seems to be attracting much attention in that Territory. The ore is free gold, and Is very rich, but as . drawback there is scarcity of water and plenty of Apaches."
 Now, there is nothing correct in the above article, except that the orc is rich. The mines are situated in country where the facilities for working are unequaled. There are several streams of running water, that flow during the entire year. There is an abundance of the finest timber and grass, and on account of the nature of the country, few, if any Apaehes. Please do us justice, Nevada brothers, and don't get jealous of us, because of our rich mines.
