Process Of Coming Gold. :

The process of cnining gold is very accusE
rately yet succipc,ly described in receutlet-,
ter to the Boston Post We eondense the
description as follows The miners have to
grind the gold rock fine, keeping it wet cons
stantly. aud as it becomes fue. it washes OF ?
They have hard kind of stone for grinding
They then mix quicksilver with it, and that
collects the gold dust. tits washed ont dried,
and goes through some ki5d of heating pro.
cess. The gold dust is then usually sold to
the superintendent nc the mint Sometimes
the miners melt the dust aud cast It intn bar
before Offering it at the mint To find tho
value, each parcel has to be o&sayed The as
saying is the most curious and scientific of all
the business in the mint, The meters take
the gold dust melt it, snd cast it into bar.

times its weight ot lead It is tGel,ed in
some small cups made of bone>ashes, which
absorb all the lead, when large part Of tho
silver is extracted bv another process, and the
sample is then rolled out to a thin shaving,
coiled up and put in n sort of glass vial called
a mattrass, slong with some nitric acid. The
mattresses are pnt on furnace and the acid
is boiled some time, poured off, new supply
put in. and boiled again. This is done several
times till the acid has extracted all the silver
and other mineral substances, leaving the
sample pure gold. The sample is then
weighed, and by the diferance between the
weight before assaving and after, the true
value is formed. The gold after it has been
assayed, is melted, refined and being mixed
with its due proportion Of ALLOW. (equal parts

A wealthy epicure applied to an Arabian

his body to health, give happiness to his
mind. The physician advised him to exchange
shirt, with man who was perfectly content
ed with his lot. upon which the patient set
out upon his journey in pursui. Of such
person. Alter many months spent without
accomplishing his object, he wa. told of
certain c"oier of whom every one had spoken
as model of contentment aud happiness
The unfortunate pursuing the direction given,
the traveller was pleased with sight of the
co6ier enjoying comfortable nap on q board.
Without ceremony he was aroused from his
sluubers, and asked if he was coutented with
his lot, and he answered in tie affirmative.
''Then," said the seeker after happiness,
''1 have "ne small boon to ask at your hands.
1t is that you exchange shirts with me, that
by this means also may become contented
and happy"
Most gladly would accede to your re-
quest" replied the cobler, ..but-
''Nny. refuse me not" interrupted the man
of wealth; !; ANY sum thou may'st name shall

BoYs.-American boys are expected TO bss
come manly men. The mother Of every boy
is expected to teach him to be obedient TO
parental authority, to the civil law; aud to
acquire an education, business, trade, or
an art something for which he may be bes.
adapted. and by which he may obtain an
honest living. This is privilege, nay more
it is du'y-a duty t' self to family, to
friends, to the Safe, aud to the nation p
When this is done, society has guaranty for
the good conduct and usefulness of each of
her SONS. When it is Deglec'ed, and boys
grow up in ignorance and idieness society is
taxed for their support, either in her refor-
tnatories. her jails. hospitals, or asyIums-
How much cheaper it would be to have every
boy properly educated, trained and discipline
ed. so that he would be blessing instead of
a curse to the world. Hs is sure to become
one or the other.-Science of Health.

a Kansas, youth pIaYed > trick on tu

"A Kansas youth played trick on two
young girls the other day who were returning
from school and just about to enter society,
which, for real meanness, can't be beat
Occupying seat on the train just back Of
them, he entered into firtation, which was
in no way discouraged. The train came to
dark tunnel, and when he got midway he
kissed the back Of his own hand audibIy-
gave it regular buss. Each girl. of course,
charged the other with guilt, and the pas
sengers thought possibly the youth had kissed
both. When they got hbme. each told the
joke on the other, and for the frrt time two
girls have the credit of having been kissed
without having enjoyed that pleasure.

THE CARELESS WORD.

Twas but = word, a careless word.
As thistle down it seem ed as light,
1t paused a moment on the air.
Then onward winged it's fignt.
Another lip caught up the word,
And bresthed it with a naughty speer.
1t gathered weight on it sped
That careless word in its career.
Then run.or caught the flying word,
And busy sossip gave il weight,
Until that little word became
vehicle OF angry hate.
And then that word was winged with Ere.
Its mission was thing of psius
For soon it fell like lava drops
Upon a wildly tortured brsin.
And then another page of life
With burning. scalding tears was blurred;
load of care was heavier made
Its added weight. that careless word
That careless word oh! how it scorched
A tainting. bleeding. quiveriag heart!
Twas like hungry FIRE, that scorched
Through every tender. vital part.
How wildly throbbed that aching heart!
Dsep agony it's fountain stirred;
1t calmed, but bitter ashes mark
The pathway OF that careless word
