Curious and Valuable Discovery I'm Tioga
County.

We learn from the Toga Agitator that a curious
and valuable quarry has been recently discovered
the farm Of Mr.. r. Bartlett, some two hundred rods
north OF Maines6urg. This may be literally des-
cribed as an immense deposit Of stone plank. 1t
covers some six acres, and the stone are found
ready for use-smooth, true, OF uniform thickness
and In slabs Of more than twenty feet long, by ten
inches In thickness; each stone however
preserving its thickness as nicely as If
sawed out by machinery. The stone is very
sound in texture, even in grain, and, when first
taken from the quarry, soft enough to work easily
though 1t soon becomes like hard gray granite on
exposure to the atmosphere. 1t is fact
hard to account for that the edges
OF these slabs are as true in most of the speci-
mems as though worked out by skilful stone-cut-
ter; They are easily reduced to any desired size,
without breakage; and the stone indeed appears to
be very tough. load Of these slabs was brought
to Wellsboro last week, over rough road, without
injury. They were twelve feet long by four in
width, and one inch thick; almost as smooth as
though planed, and without warp or wind. At one
point in the quarry the slabs are in layers twenty
seven deep, large enough to square sixteen feet,
and of uniform thickness of two inches. Orders
are being received from various places for quanti-
ties OF these stones and this stone-plank mine-for
such 1t isblds fair to be fortune for its owner.
1t is doubtful If there is a similar quarry in the
State.-PtttSbtfg Commercial, yesterday

There is a lively demand for brokers' loans on
collaterals; but beyond this the market is en-
treiy devoid OF any feature possessing the least
interest to the public. Time loans are every
where In most favor, as the indications point
towards quiet market and very low scale of
rates for money during the next three months;
but there is very little demand here for this
class OF loans, and lenders appear disposed to
accept the situation until the tide turns. We
quote call loans at 86D4 per cent. on collaterals
and 5@6 per cent. on paper having three or four
months 10 run.
