We copy this paragraph from the Chicago
Post of the fifth instant, which shows that
the usually intelligent conductors Of that
journal are not well posted in Louisiana
affairs. We do not believe that an election
in Louisiana was progressing last week:
Elections in both Texas and Louisiana
we're progressing quietly up to the latest
dates, but how many days they are to last
issues pending which can scarcely be faith
omed 1t this distance. Both sides are san
guine of carrying Texas, bat come Of the
preliminaries are Of the most extraordinary
Character. and We are prepared to hear that
troubles have grown out Of them. Whether
the internal warfare between the WarmOth
and Casey factions in Louisiana viii change
the result viii be better known after the
vote is counted. A united vote viii give
both States to the Republicans

Gold and Silver Product Of the Pacific
Coast.

The gold aud silver annually pro-
duccd upon the Pacific coast, approx
imates $S0,W0,000-a an amount that
will be greatly increased within the
next two or three years. Only a
little more than twenty years have
elapsed since we began mining for
these metals, during which time
we have extracted and put into cir
culatiOH something over 81, 100000; /;
to say nothing of other forms of
wealth created by our comparatively
limited population meantime. Never
before, perhaps, have so small a
number OF people built up and es-
tablished upon a permanent footing
such broad and profitable business
i'm SO short a period. But this has
not been accomplished without much
lOss to individuals, and even the most
costly sacrifices on the part of large
classes of the community. As in
the founding of every other impOT-
tamt industry, tine and the expendi-
ture of vast sums Of money have been
required TO bring mining to its prs
ent state Of perfection, nearly all
the experiments and trials made in
the futhcrance of this business hav-
ing been carried on under conditions
involving great hardships and hravy
I expense.
Hence, while It has brought ample
reward, and even opulence, TO some,
it has Injured only in loss TO the many,
who have consequently felt sore over
their want Of success, seeking often
to attribute, and sometimes with
good cause, their failure to the fault
Of others. Thus, the prospecteF and
| locator of mines is prone to censare
I the capitalist, and Uicc UeTSG, each
cOnceiving that the other has been
| oVerreaching, Temiss or otherwise
instrumental in working him a
wrong. The iHdiscriminate indul-
: gence OF this feeling. though natural
enough, is apt 10 do both parties in
/ Justice, since, overlooking exception
I al cases, a survey Of the field ofOpera-
tions so remote and vast, and a con-
I sidcration Of the troubles inherent
I to a new and difficult business, tend
10 show that the fancied wrong were
( generally the result Of eXeusable ig-
i noranee or unavoidable necessity,
rather than Of wilful error. And, as
such, they should be overlooked IN
passing judgement upon the pioneers
in this great industry Overland
