will, it is certain, dissent from this
view.
The facts upon which are based the
claim of the Great Mogul, already re-
trIred to, are As follows: When the
Jiuk>vilie parties had struck ore in
paying quantities, Messrs. Stoweli
and CaprOu-twO gentlemen idcuti-
fed with the interests of Eureka
conceived the brilliant idea OF pur-
chasing the VIGOROUSLY outlawed
claim or title t. tue Great MO.ul,
upon which the Pleiades is partly To-
Gated. This was successfully accOlu-
plished last July, they paving there

that was the insignificant amount
paid by these speculative gentlemen
tor the Monarch, whose title was to
subGue the Duuderberg, and be held
i'll terror ove it in order to induce its
owners To hand over to them "A small
portion OF the 81 60 900 paid UP capt

lars for the Great MOgul Yes. that
was the price its lormer owner. OF
owners received for it, and they, like
" enough, believed it m0rethan a fair
sun for their mountain Monarch.
Now. the question to be Sktd is, did
not Messrs. Staweli and Capron know,
at the time of its purchase, that the
title was worthless, that it would not
avail much in law. and that thew ere
purchasing that which would entail
upon themselves legal trouble and
eNI eusc? Certainly they did, ard
we've entirely willing to take the CON
sequences, relieving that it would
prove to bc equally as rcmunera,ivc a
scheme as the huntsville did for the
trio named above. Wonder whether
these gentlemen eve thought of the
injury they were doing, not alone to
themselves. but to the ann in whose
IrogreSs they should he interested?
Did they ever contemplate the imme-
dlHte or remote hearing these iraudu-
lent suits would have upon its future?
