Eureka Items.
from tho Sentinel Of Wednesday,

IErOm the ScntlnCl OF NCuncsuAy.1
The mines in the Schell Creek range
north Of the town Of Schellburn, have
n very promising appearance, and will
compare we'll with the mines on the
Comstock when further developed.
The ore in this part of the district Is Of
a very high grade, going well up In the
thousands. In our opinion, however,
the ore Ia so refractory that it will re-
oulre roasting to obtain satisfactory
results. The mines to the south Of
S%chellburn are Of greater magnitude.
The ore Is of a higher grade, less re-
fractory, and can be reduced by any
common process. Wire silver, similar
to that of tho old Comstock, black sui
phurets, native silver and patanky, or
antlmonial silver, are found in large
quantities /; In short, taking into con-
sideratlon the amount Of work done,
this mining district far surpasses any
thing we have seen.
We learn through private advices,
that the General Lee property, includ-
Ing the Wide West. was yesterday in
c~orporated In San Francisco, under the
name of the Adams Hill Mining Com
pany. We nre informed that q very
rich and important development was
also made yesterday In the Wide West
incline.
Captain Day, formerly Supcrlntend-
ent Of the Ophir mine at Virginia City,
stopped over In Eureka yesterday en-
route for Phoebe. We understand that
the Captain will assume control, as
General Superintendent Of the Mend
ow Valley property. Captain Day Is
a flrst-class mining man.

FISH CuITURE.-Two men living
near Nevada City are making arrange
ments to engage extensively In raising
fish In artificial ponds. They intend
to construct several ponds and stock
them with trout minnows from Don
ner Lake or Truckee. Minnows can
be easily obtained from those localities
by the tens of thousands, and by secur-
Ing them every year. 1t will obviate
the necessity and trouble OF Matching
them from spawn, and save q heavy
item of expense. BY having all the
fish In certain ponds Of the same age
and kind, there will be no danger of
their devouring each other. We have
no doubt but that the business Of fish
culture in these foothills could be
made successful and remunerative.
Wherever artificial ponds or reservoirs
can be cheaply constructed, and a suf-
flcient and permanent supply of water
IAN be had, II would pay to engage In
the busine5s.-Grass Valley Republican.

BosToN y TIE SOCIAL Ev1L.-The
Boston Chief of Police, in his annual
report, suggests that male NIGHTINGALE
ers are just as much ~nuisances as night
walkers of the other Sex. As for the
licensing social evil, he denounces the
project as vigorously as he can: BY a
strict enforcement Of the law no had
diminished the houses Of ill-fame, but,
on tho other hand, houses of assigna-
ton have increased "greatfully and
%fearfully.'; 1t is rather astonishing to
read In the report Of a Chief Of Police
that the true way to combat prostitu-
ton is to pay women the same wages
as men when they do n similar amount
Of work. The samo suggestion has be-
fore been made, but 1t Is rather n nov
city to find n stony-hearted Chief Po-
liceman informing his superiors that II
women still, even in moral Boston,
follow this body and soul-killlnS call
ing. 1t Is because they are perpetually
made the victims of fraud, injustice,
and the rapacity Of trade.

AND pHYs1cA1 SLAVERY

Slavery in its broadest sense Is that
which cramps the powers and hinders
development. The nobler the power,
the worse ia the slavery which limits
Its growth and retards Its exercise.
The serf Is not so much degraded In
being compelled to perform manual
work, against his will, as in being de-
Med the opportunity Of improving his
mind /; and no letters that can bind the
limbs are so ignominious rs those
which imprison and restrain the
thoughts. As the moral nature Is still
higher than the intellectual, so what
ever binders growth and development
In virtue /, Of all tyrants the most ma
llgnant. The great difference in char
acter Is that some are breaking, link
by link, the chains that enslave the
mind and soul, while others passively
submit to DO bound by them. 1t Is the
willing Victim of circumstances, or
temptations, or passions, that Is the
real slave. He who frets and chafes
against the bonds that would hold him
back from ~nobleness and goodness, has
already begun to taste true liberty ;
and when with all humility he reveren-
ces his own nature too much to yield IL
passively to the tyranny Of evil pas
slons or gross desires, or degrading In
flueuces from without or within, and
manfully exerts his will from time to
timo to resist and repel them, he Is In
the straight path that leads to liberty.
There Is no bondage so AFFECT as that
In which we are held by moral evil.
How often do We hear the acknowledge
mont, az know such and such a habit
Is Injurious and wrong, but I cannot
leave 1t off," One declares he Is una
BILE to control his expenditures, anoth-
or that he cannot overcome his indo-
lence, a third that 1t Is impossible for
him to resign some favorite vice or to
resist some unholy desire. These very
persons would Indignantly repel tho
idea Of being In bondage to any human
being, and yet they calmly assert that
they are In a state Of slavery far more
abject than any despot has power to
intiict. If a man possesses not him
self, it matters little who possesses
him ; II he control not himself, It Is Of
secondary Importance how far he may
be under the control Of another. Let
none, however, who are thus e%nslaved,
imagine that they cannot burst their
bonds and become free. Physical sla-
very may continue till death, notwith-
standing tho most ardent desires and
efforts to escape 1t, but no IL who
earnestly longs to free his soul from
the slavery Of moral evil need despair,
however firmly the tetters may seem
to be forged. The desire cherished
will animate the will the will,
strengthened into determination, vii
produce efforts each ono Of which will
pave the way for the succeeding one,
until at length he who was once bound
In the most pitiable slavery, will
emerge into the highest, purest liberty,
the freedom of the soul to develop Into
oil that Is noble, worthy and good.
