and Tnlcles Ra lroad, these supplies
have been reduced In price from TWEEN
ty to twenty-five per cent. from former
rates. Hence, the "ring,"i If there Is
any, monopolizing the wood and tim
Der supplies, is proving n vast benefit
to the mining community by bring
ing down prices. Tho writer In the
alta makes rather n laughable compar-
ison Of the Gould & Curry mine Of
1858 and what It w.s In 1859. Why,
bless his stupid soul, in 1883 the Gould
& Curry was almost a new mine, just
fairly opened in the richest portion OF
the Comstock, within n few hundred
feet OF the groupings, with q rich, full
abreast" Of ore eighty feet in thick
ness, and running hundreds of feet
lengthwise, upward and downward
within the walls of the ledge. These
rich and extensive deposits in the mine
were worked out, and the owners got
the money. Such rich strikes don't
last always, either IN the Comstock or
In mines in other countries. The OPP
orators in mines would get entirely too
wealthy if We had many such minis as
the Gould s. Curry was in 1858.

THE dust obtained from places Of
amusement In New York have recent
ly been analysed by the scientific Of.
ficers Of the Metropolitan Board Of
Health. Over one hundred spe-
cimens of the particles floating In the
mir and falling as dust, were collected
on plates of glass, and were examined
under the microscope. The proper
tionG of the different ingredients va
ried but the same substances were
found in all the specimens. The con-
sumption of the matter subjected to
the microscope was rs follows: "The
dust of the streets in Its finer or coarser
particles, according to the height at
which 1t has been collected, with q
large proportion of organic elements;
particles Of sand ; of fcldspar; Of car
bon, from coal dust and l%ampblack;
tibres Of wool and cotton Of various
tints; epidemic scales; granules Of
starch, or wheat mainly. the tissues
of plants; the epldermlc tissue, recog-
nized by the atomata or breathing
pores; vegetable ducts and ibres, with
spiral markings vegetable hairs or
down, either single or In tufts Of four
or eight, and Of great variety, and
three distinct kinds Of pollens. Fungi
were abundant from mere mlcrococctls
granules 10 filaments Of mould. When
water was added to o portion Of dust
from whatever source, and exposed In
a test tube to sunlight or heat for a
few hours, yibriones and bacteria made
their appearance, and the fungous ele-
ments sproutedand multiplied showing
that they maintained their vitality,
and proving that the germs Of fermen-
tation and pu~trefaction are very wide.

CLOSING CRAcxs IN SrovEs.-It may
be convenient to know a ready method
of closing up cracks. which are not
uncommon, in cast-iron stoves; and
we are assured that the follow
ing receipt is a reliable one. Cool
wood ashes are to be siftcd through a
fine seiye, to which is added the same
quantity Of clay, finely pulyerized,
together with a little salt. The mix
ture is to be moistened with water
enough to make 4 paste, and the crack
in the stove is to be filed with it. This
cement does not peal OF or break
away, and ssumeS IN extreme de-
gree of hardness after being heated.
The stove must be cool when the ap-
plication is made. The same substance
may be used in setting in the plates of
n stove, or in fitting stove pipes serv-
ing to render all the joints perfectly
tight.

February 25h.
In mauy respects the foregoing arti-
Gle from the Alta has q good deal Of
sound sense In ESPECIALLY its allu-
sions TO oyer-paid labor and Its arbi-
trary style on the Pacific coast. Its
comparison, however, of the price Of
fuel, timber, and lumber, Of the min
Ing operations in California and those
Of the Comstock. and Its deductions Of
results, are entirely erroneous. 1t
cites the price Of fuel and timber ut
the Amador and Grass Valley mines,
and wonders why these essential arti-
Giles here on the Comstock should cost
So much more than In Amador and
Grass Valley. The writer Of these
strange %speculations has evidently
never been near the Comstock, or his
own sense Of observation would teach
him at once. Amador and Grass Val
lev are almost in the midst Of as good
timber and vast quantities Of fuel as
can be found In the State Of California.
While OIL the Comstock we have to OBJ
tain all our fuel and timbsrs from a
distance of from twenty to forty miles;
and hence the difference in the cost Of
these articles as compared to the
localities named in California. The
wood and timber markets for supplying
the Comstock, are not now nor have
they " been controlled by a "ring"
or ''rings"-but they + now, as they
always have been, open to all COMPETE
ton, whether these supplies are
brought in by wagon or by railroad.

An Autumn Suggestion.

Now, as heavy fogs arise and searching
winds commence to blow; now, rs the hui
man body, exhausted like inanimate ma
ture by the heats of summer, begins to wilt
and droop; now ere the Indictment weather
makes its trying onset; NOW is the time for
a preparatory course of the best acclimating
medicine in existence, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters.
Fever and Ague is rampant in all parts
of the country. Quinine, the physicians
admit, will NOT Quel the phase of the disease
which at the present pervades the entire
West. II is we'll that it is so, for the remedy
(so- called) is deadlier than the malady.
But if Quinine is inefficient in intermittent
fevers, Hostetter's Bitters is irresistible. 1t
would be safe TO make contract, under
heavy penalties, that any given "Fever-and-
Ague District" should be exempted from
the disorder for any particular time, pro-
vided every inhabitant would take the Bit
tiers according TO directions, during the term

The Danger OF Delay.

But few diseases require more attention
than Colds and Coughs, and few are more
generally neglected. How many persons,
when they take cold, consider it..of no inn
portance, and let 1t run on, without reflect
ing moment on its consequences. Re
member that neglected colds are frequently
dangerous and often result In diseases most
difficult to cure. A cold in the head pro
duces cough, then comes pain in the side,
fever, difficulty in breathing, and finally
ends IN consumption. Who would suffer
from cold, with the probability of a seri-
Gus attack OF Catarrh, Bronchitis, Influenza,

efficient preventive, MlSHLERS HERB
BITTEItS, can be had at a moments notice /?

precedes a cold, prevent hoarSeness, check
coughing, expel the mucus gathered in the
bronchi, and resist successfully that fell

The Election.

The smoke of battle has not yet
sufficiently cleared away to enable us
to declare definitely and positively the
details of the great Democratic victory
won in West Virginia on the 9th,
The fact that the victory has been
won is conceded even by our foes, but
the particulars Of the contest have not
vet come to hand. The election re,
turns presented this morning indicate
with tolerable certainty the triumph OF
the entire Democratic State ticket,
True, the counties heard from are few,
but the uniform gains to the Demo
cratic ticket are so great as to fully JUS
tify the opinion that Mr.. JACOB has been
elected Governor.
During the entire campaign 1t has
been conceded by both parties that the
contest for supremacy in the State
would lie mainly in the First Congress
sional District. The party that carried
that district would carry the State.
Already returns have been received
sufficient to indicate q Democratic ma
jority in the First District Of at least
{ one thousand. OF course. this elects
JACOB Governor, by about the same
majority.
We arc also able to figure up, with
out straining the probabilities at all, a
clear majority Of eight or ten on joint
ballot in the Legislature. This will
secure the election of an United States
Senator in place OF WILEY and gives
US the most complete victory we could
possibly desire. GLORY enough for one
day 90. ..
The good news, although not entire
ly unexpected, is nevertheless better
than the most sanguine dared to
hope. 1t seems almost too good to
state positively in the absence of official
figures, but even the most extreme Rad
icals in this city last night willingly
conceded all we claim; the Congress
sional election, the State ticket and the
Legislature. OF the causes which have
produced this splendid result We will
speak at another time. (

During the years Of excitement occa-
stoned by these earthquakes hundreds
Joined the Methodist Episcopal Church,
and though many were sincere and
stood firm, vet there were hundreds
that no doubt had Joined them from
mere fright.
The earthquakes gave Tecumseh, the
Shawnee chieftan, the reputation OF a
prophet among the Indians Of Alabama.
| A few months previous to this event, he
was on his mission to the Southern In
dams, TO. unite all the tribes OF the
South with those Of the North in his
grand scheme OF exterminating the
whole white race from the wide extent
of the Mississippi Valley, from the
, lakes of the North to the Gulf of Mex
leo. Drake, in his memsir of Tecum-
sch, gives this anecdote:
On his return from Florida, Tecum-
sch went among the Creeks in Alabama,
urging them to unite with the Semi
noles. Arriving at Tuckhabatchee, a
Creek town on the Yallapoosa river, he
made his way to the lodge of the chief,
called the Big Warrior. He explained
his object, delivered his war talk, pre-
scented a bundle OF sticks, gave piece
of wampum and a hatchet; all OF which
the Big Warrior took. When Tecum-
sch, reading the intentions and spirit OF
the Big Warrior, looked him in the
eye, and pointing his finger toward his
face, said: "Your blood is white; you
have taken my talk, but you do not
mean to fight; i know the reason, you
do not believe the Great Spirit has sent
me, you shall know; leave Tuckha-
batchee directly, and shall 60 straight
to Detroit. When | arrive there | will
stamp on the ground with my foot, and
shake down every house in Tuckha.
batchee." So saying, he turned and
left the Big Warrior in utter amaze
ment at both his manner and his threat,
and pursued his journey.
The Indians were struck no less with
his conduct than was the Big Warrior,
and began to dread the arrival Of the
day when the threatened calamity would
befall them. They met often and talk
ed over this matter, and counted the
days carefully, to know the time when
Tecumseh would reach Detroit. The
morning they had fixed upon as the
: period of his arrival at last come. A
mighty rumbling was heard-the In
dams all ran out OF their houses, the
earth began to shake; when at last,
sure enough every house in Tuckha,
batchee was shaken down! The
explanation was in every mouth, "Te-
cumseh has got to DetroitT The effect
was electrical. The message he had
delivered to the Big Warrior was de
livered and many OF the Indians took
their rifles and prepared for the war.
The reader will not be surprised to
learn that the earthquake has produced
all this; but he will be, doubtless, that
it should happen on the very day on
which Tecumseh arrived at Detroit,
and in exact fulfillment of his threat.
1t was the famous earthquake Of New
Madrid
