The cost of smelling and separating
is $50 per ton, so the profit is about
$3.50 per ton. Near this first shaft,
on the forty acre lot they have sunk
the second shaft, begun last Octo-
Der. This is of about the same size
of the first; and is down almost as
deep, the vein working about four
feet in width, aud the ore being of
similar purity. The vein, like that
first found, broadens as it is dug out.
Four men work in this shaft at
night and four during the day.
But it has been decided in the
spring to purchase the land at $780,
600, as in the agreement, and then
the working will begin on an extern
sive scale. By that time 500 tons
will have been removed and the
mine worked down to depth of
100 feet. A company from Law

THE ORIGIN OF CHRISTMAS GIFTS.
Christmas gifts had their origin in
the Roman Paganalia, which was in
stituted by Seryius Tullius, B. G.
SO. On these festivals, celebrated
in the beginning of the year, an al
tar was erected in every village, and
to the box placed upon it every man,
woman and child was expected to
contribute a coin. Aubrey speaks
of pot in which Roman coins were
found, and supposed to be one of
these Paganalian vessels. The Christ
mas box naturally arose form this
Pagan New Years box. There is an
impressive propriety and tender
beauty, however, in thus eommem-
Grating the event which gave Di-
vine Redeemer to a lost world-the
greatest gift that is conceivable to
mankind. 1t is, moreover, an equal
ly appropriate custom which makes
the season one, not only of compos-
ing and forgetting old quarrels, and
renewing and confirming friendships,
but for a universal manifestation of
generosity and charity from the rich
to the poor-in olden times this ben
eicience being extended even to the
lower animals, a practice to which
Burns alludes in the ''The Auld Far
mer's Address to his Mare" F"
TEARS AND LAUGHTER.-We must
not call earth vale of tears. 1t is
neither pious to do so, nor in any
respect proper. We might as well,
nay, with far greater propriety, call
it field of laughter. For, as there
is no more good than evil in the
world, more action than passion,
more health than disease, more life
than death (ife being a thing of
years, but death of moments,) so
there is more comfort than discOm-
fort, more pleasure than pain,. and
therefore more laughter than tears.
But as it would be disrespect- to
sorrow to call earth field of laugh
ter, so is a sullenness to joy and an
ingratitude to the goodness of God,
to call it a vale of tears. God made
both tears and laughter, and both
for kind purposes. For laughter
enables mirth and surprise to breathe
freely, so tears enable sorrow tovent
itself patiently. Tears hinder sor-
row from becoming despair and
madness; and laughter is one of the
very privileges of reason, being con-
fined to the human species. It be-
comes us then to receive both the
j gifts thankfully, and to hold our
selves, on fitting occasions, superior
to neither. To be incapable of tears
would be to lose some of the sweet
est emotions of humanity; and the
proud or sullen fool who should
never laugh would but reduce him
self below it.

ushered in the 18th of June, 1775, and
the American Revolution, He pictured

the approach of the British, the reserve

and purest mountain water in the world
brought to it from DALI S creek, far up in
the Sierras, near Lake Tahoe. 1t is car.
ried in fiume four miles long to spur
of the Washoe Valley, at a point two
thousand one hundred feet above the
track of the Virginia and Truckee rail
road. 1t is thence carried across the
valley in a twelve-inch pipe, in the form
of an inverted siphon, which reaches a
point on the opposite side of the valley,
fifteen hundred and forty feet above the
railroad. The siphon is nearly seven
miles long, and follows the irregular line
of the ground. Over million pounds
of rolled iron were used in the construc-
ton of the pipe, which is provided with
blow-off and air cocks at many points on
its route. From the outlet of the siphon
the water is carried in another fIume to
Virginia City. The water before enter
ing the pipe passes through wire screens
and charcoal, and reaches the city COM
pletely purified and ready for use. The,
supply is estimated at two million gal
Ions per day, but this amount can
be increased by using the full head of
water.
