We are In receipt Of q letter from

neva and Tsa.cup mines at Cherry
Creek, In which most encouraging &C.
counts are given Of the appearance OF
things there. One car lead Of selected
ore frsm the Geneva went $l,36S 90
per ton. and Melted $l.09G 80 after all
expenses had beer paid. The vein
from whence thls ore was taken Is
said to DO at the present time from six
to thlrty-slx Inches In width. The
lower grade ore will mill 800 and
$500, and shows n large body. We
have no doubt that, under energetic
management, Cherry Greek will SCENE

An IMPORTANT PARLIAMENTARY
DECISION.

A parliamentary decision WAS re-
cently made In the House OF Repre-
sentativss, which Is worthy OF notice.
The House was debating upon the cur
rsney bill. aud an amsndmsnt was
introduced proposing to tax National
Banks. Mr.. Spser, OF Pennsylvania
made the point Of order that certain
gentlemen OF tho House, naming some
Of them, were Directors, Presidents,
ETC., Of National Banks. and claimed
that under the rule prohibiting mem-
bsrs from voting upon questions In
which they had An interest, tho men,
bsrs referred to had no right to vote
upon the amendment before the Hsuse.
The Speaker, In ruling upon the point
OF order. said the question went back

Tho Speaker then illustrated the
situation by saying TIA IL inc House

there were many officers members Of

was made, but not sustained, because
they belonged to n class. Mr.. Blaine
went on to say that since he had occu.
