DIR. E. s. CARR, Of Oakland, Cali
fornia, maintains that gold-mining in
California is not only profitable, but
carried on at an actual loss. He affirms
that every dollar Of gold that has been
ding there has cost from one to one and
a half dollars. Fifty thousand people,
he estimates, were engaged in mining in
1872, and the product was twenty mil
lion dollars. Reckoning the labor at
two and a half dollars per day, DR.. Carr
calculates that the miners wages would
amount to thirty-seven and half mil
lion dollars, making an aggregate loss
to the community, in a single year, Of
seventeen and half million dollars.

DRCSKESNEss DIsEAsE.-The we'll
known DR.. Willard Parker, of New York,
lately delivered an address before the
National Temperance Society. What
this experienced and able physician says
upon the subject Of intempcrance is en-
titled to very great weight, for the reason
that to his ordinary medical experience
is added that of many years care of in
ebriates. The doctor has come to tho
conclusion that drunkenness is a disease !;
that drunkard cannot control his appe-
ti.e, and that he will hence drink at all
hazards. The doctor ranks alcohol
among the poisons as poisonous as
arsenic or belladOna, and as surely de-
structive of life as these poisons. He
took the very unusual ground that the
purer the spirit the more deadly its
effect, and declared that if he were going
to use it he would prefer the adulterated
article. He declared that nothing is
harmless in which there is alcohol. In
lager there is three to four per cent Of
alcohol in ale seven to eight in wine
twenty-three in gin f'fty-one in brandy
ffty-three, and in cider two to three per
cent

A Corner in Toledo.

Special Dispatch to The Chicago TRIBUNE.
TOLEDO, O., July 31.-Tho scene upon Change
to-day WAS one OF tho Widest excitement over
known in the history Of tho Board Of Trade in
this city. It had boen suspected for some days
past that a corner In old amber wheat, sollor
month approached, the shorts" finding than1-
selves likely to oachcavly, tried to cover, which
preeipltaeed the criaia: Tho quantity Of anbcr
on hand had boon reduced from various causos
a. reported by tho socretary Of tlo
Board Of Trade, wns only 51.4H bushels.
According to tho rumors to-day, ali this, with
the exception Of about G,00O bushels, was in tho
hands Of the "ring" who projected tho 'cor-
neE a. The Pes en for ot and sssn sssr 9ug
91.85, and this morning to s1.75. Lator in the
session, tho "bulls" bid $2.o0, and 10000 bush
els wero taken at that rate. Tho shorts, mp
prociatlng their situation, muatored their
forces, aud sold $4,000 bushels at sl:50, two
session, aud tho meeting broke up in tho great
est Excitement. Immediately aftor tho clearing,
tho Board met, and declared the average Of eales
to be 81 .651G, and that RottlemontB be made
at that figure. The "long" intoroat denounced
aaes at 71.60 to botIctitous, and not legally enti
tied to calculation In arriving At tho average.
Tho mooting for compromise ia to DO held to-
morrow morning, and II O. hgher average can
not be obtained CONTEXT il threatened. It iB
impossible to arrive at nn approximation Of tho
Rhort interest, but it Ia put al high "a 124 900
buahelB. No failures aro expected, but BONO firms
will probably be crippled. ALI tho frmB engaged
III tho transaction claim to be uninjured, mud
atate that the affair WIS operated by Outside
parties, but it seems thoro aro good grounds for
believing that the corner was the work Of three
prominent firms OF tho city. Whother they will
como out whoie or not depends upon tho terms
they can obtain from tho "Bhorta" tomorrow.
