MINES AND MINING
IN CALIFORNIA AND NEVADA.

OWING TO THE DELAYS that have
" attended the printing and distribution
of the Reports Of the Commissioners on,
Mining jSt0ttSttcS, these carefully pre-
pared and otherwise useful publications,
have failed to keep the world duly posted
in regard to the condition and progress of
mining affairs on the Pacific Coast, the
information conveyed through this me-
dunn being already many months old by
the time it reaches the eye of the general
public. With view to furnishing fresh
intelligence on mining topics, and bring
ing the history of this great industry down
to the most recent date, the undersigned
will, on or about the first of February
next, issue a large octave volume, de-
voted to consideration Of mining mat
ters, rs they exist at the present time, in
the States of California and Nevada. In
the fulflment of this purpose the author
will at once visit every important district
and locality in these States that has not
already been lately examined or heard
from through reliable channels, to the
end that the information bodied in this
volume may be recent and authentic.
The great aim will be to fill the book with
live practical matter; wherefore, only
such properties as have been brought to n
productive condition, or rs have, through
developments made, established for them
selves a good degree of actual or pros
pective merit will receive attention nor
will any notice be bestowed on processes
or appliances other than such as have met
with approval after extended working
tests.
This work will be printed on the best
quality Of paper, and be elegantly and
substantially bound, the design being to
impart to it such mechanical excellence
as will reflect credit upon the book-mak-
ing art in California.

A SPRING SIGN. The most infallible of
signs that the warmer days have come, says
the Tribune, is that in the evening you may
now see the sociable stoop of the boarding
house covered with its inmates. For half
year there has been nothing to maik the
clearinghouse except the blaze of light from
all its windows by night. But now the softer
evenings draw the tenants OF hall bedrooms
and two-pair backs down fromtheir hermitag-
es togossip and fresh air ON Ihe brown stone
steps. Jhe avenues are as yet little too
painfully conscious Of their dignity to allow
this but the side streets are full OF thse cheer
full groups of boarders who 'loaf and invite
their souls" They have their reward in the
crepuscular freshness, and in the intimate
expansion of confidence which comes to fel
low mortals in the twilight, when shyness
aid distrust fade away as their countenanccs
grow vaguer. The uproar of the busy day is
forgotten; its little miseries sink out of sight;
the obduracy of the steak, the maturity of
the egg, the self-assertion of the salad oil,
even the iteration of the hash, cease to ve1,
and the soul of the city grows peaceful as his
eyes grow heavy.
