deserted mines of Argentine district,
situated between this place and

several aSSaNs of ore obtained in this

SPECIAL PLEADING.-The San Fran
cisco Baletia puts in a special plea for
the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, on account of the late VERY
late) reduction in telegraph rates;
claiming that it is and always has
been the policy of the telegraph mo-
nopolv to extend telegraph facilities
and reduce the tolls as fast as posi-
ble. The Bulletin also says the new
rates are lower II an the schedule
likely to be adopted by the Govern
rnent for a postal telegraph. That
paper being one OF the Associated
Press, such advocacy OF the monopo-
~ j, to be expected. But suppose
that the project for 4 Government
telegraph had never been brought
forward would the recent reduction
have been made at all? And suppos-
ing that the project should be with
drawn what guarantee have the peo-
pie that the old ~exorbitant rates will
not I've re-established? 1t is selfevi-
dent that the reduction has been
made for the sole purpose # heading
off the measure of a postal telegraph,
demanded by a large majority of the
people.

THE CAUSE OF GoITRE.-Mr. L.
bour has lately communicated TO The
Brush Association of Science the re-
suit OF his researches for the source
OF the disease known as goitre. His
conclusion is, that it is neither pro-
duced 10y magnesium rocks. as many
suppose. nor bv limestone iornlatIonS,
no again by the hardness of water.
He shows it To- he more probable that
metallic impurities in water are its
causes for he found that in proper
ton as carboniferous limestone is
characterized by metallifcrous pro.
ducts, it is accom- panied 10y the occur
OF this malady. Districts where
ferruginuuS water abounds very ON
monty present goitre, particularly if
the iron be derived from the dccom-
position of iron pyrites.-ERcbdnge.
These pseudo-scientitic dicta of Mr..
Lebour are completely negatived by
the well known fact, that. in Califor-
mia, Colorado, Utah, and Nevada.
where the decomposition of iron py-
rites, in various stages. is constant
lv going on, and where the running
streams pass through and over those
pvrites, not a single Ease of goitre has
ever been known to occur. The cause
of the disease must be sought in
>ome other urce than the one an
nounced by Mr.. Lebour. Many Of
our medicinal springs are ferrugin-
orls but their waters are freely par
taken of by visitors. without any
such effect as that attributed to them
by the scientific sarant above quoted.
