So little Is known respecting the

extent and richness, that the writer,
one of the discoveries of the district,
offers the following to interest your
readers, Panamint district is situated

tween Panamint and Death Valley;

the native vernacular, rises to the pro-
bable altitude of IL, 600 feet. The point

will be Los Angeles, until the South

PAMpL1N, February 2, 1874.
r am troubled in selecting a name for this
embrvo city, as just now there Is quite q
discussion among its citizens on that SUD-
;art There are many who think the name
PamnIin,s Depot sounds too insignificant,
and who desire that it shall be called Pamp-
lin CITY. Offers object to this putting on
CITY airs, as they believe that
..small boats should keep near the shore,
While larger ones may venture more"
Some of this class oppose any change in its
name, others wish it to be Pamplnvlle.
There is yet party who wish to change
the name entirely and select some other.
Being thus situated. and not wishing to Of
fend any friends l may have in either party,
I have adopted as compromise Pamplin.
The surveyors were at work last week
laying cut the metes and bounds OF the
place. and an effort viii be made to incorpo-
rate it at an early date. The place IS I'M
proving slowly, and we notice the erectlon
of a number Of houses.
We are informed that deposit oil IRON
ore has been found near this place which,
when smelted In the usual manner, proves
TO be an excellent article of steel.
Trade at present here is rather dull, but In
anticipation of the tobacco trade is looking
ND. The tobacco trade has not yet fairly
opened, although they have sales every
morning and evening. The lots have thus
far been generally small and the quality
rather inferior, comprising primings, trash,
Jugs, and damaged or inferior leaf.
The farmers are busy preparing their
lands for the next crop. Wheat in this seq
ton promises well. II. u. w.

The Educational Journal Of Virginia for

The Educational Journal Of Virginia for
February is before us. Every educator IN
Virginia ought to take this monthly. IL IS
one of the best published in the country.
Amongst the articles in this No. is a review
of Professor JoYNEs's Classic French Plays
q book which we have recently read with
much pleasure, and which we should since
have noticed if we had not considered it too
late to notice book which has been out
several years. The review seems to be fair
one. We learn from it that Professor W.D.
WHITNEY, of Yale College, has said in an
article which he wrote for The Nation that
"Mr. JoYsEs's I've take it for granted he
"didn't say JoYNEs'l book is edited with
"more care and with greater competence
"of learning than any French texts which
" have issued from the American PRESS
The editorial paragraphs are readable and
timely. The official department is interest
ing to teachers and others.

THI PosrAaE QUESTION. Many Of the city
papers are urging Congress to require OF
newspaper publishers the prepayment Of
postage, knowing that such law will ope.
rate against the country publishers and Ia
favor Of the large city journals, just as the dis.
continuance Of the free-eXchange system and
tho free delivery of newspapers in the coua-
ties where published have operated in favor
Of the same class of publishers ideacater
IRder.
How, pray? So far from wishing to pro-
duce such result, We would be willing to
compromise on a law which should require
prepayment on all city papers and allow all
country weeklies to be circulated in the
counties wherein published free of charge.
The postage on these wesklies is now only
i've cents quarter! 1t must bc valuable
property that Is so easily taxed out of ex-
istence.
But the fact Is, that to pay your postage
yourself, friend Inder, would result 10 great
advantage to your business. Many and many.

matter would take your paper who now
refuses to takeit because be does not wish
