THE EDINBURGH NINE.

The Superintendent of the Edin-
burgh mine, writing from Silver
City (Nev. under the date of Nov.
25th says
The shaft is finished to the depth
OF rs feet. 1t has four compart-
ments-four by four in the clear
and is we'll timbered. / can assure
you that the work done up to this
time in the Edinburgh shaft is first
class. We encountered some sur
face water at the bottom of the shaft
which came from an old drift l run
in 1862. 1t is now dry and there
will therefore be no difficulty in
sinking to tho depth where We
ought to strike the ledge. The vein
at depth of 25 feet. has a pitch of
Al degrees. As soon as the shaft
reac res depth of 275 feet we will
cut the lode. 1 am satisfied that
we have a valuable property and
sincerely believe that it is to the
interest of the stockholders to
hasten its development. Having
been for many years one of the
principal owners in the Glasgow
and Amazon mines-close by here
Il know the character of the work
we require to bring our mine into
the position occupied by those
mines to-day. The Glasgow, and
the Amazon, too. for that matter,
have better ore to-day than the
Consolidated Virginia had at the
same depth. The Edinburgh ad-
joins the Glasgow and Amazon.
The groupings of the Edinburgh
present fine appearance and are
far superior to those of the Amazon.
They nearly equal those of the
Glasgow, which. from the develop
meuts now being quietly made. is
bound to create sensation in less
than three months. The Edinburgh
ledge has perfect hanging wall,
and the developments l have
already made determine that it is
true tissure vein.
Yours Truly,

SlXTI.FUUR LIVES LOST BY
DROWNING.

A kurrachee correspondent of the
Bombay Gazette, writing on the
Goth of September, gives the follow
ing account of the terrible disaster
which took place in the harbor on
the previous Monday, by which a
great number oi' lives were lost;
On the country craft, which was
bound for Hutch, and which had On
boad some seventy persons about
10 celebrate u wedding. nearing the
breakwater, the stupid opium-smok-
ing crew thought it WAS the shore,
and were about 10 anchor. They
were told by some of the passengers
that il was portion OF the Manora
rock, but evidently they were too
much intoxicated 10 hear the warn
ing remark, and in few seconds the
kotia struck the breakwater and was
dashed to pieces. The authorities
were up in an instant and Illuminated
the whole surface of the water with
blue lights, and, coming up to the
scene of the accident, they threw
about life buoys and planks, bu, all
to no purpose. Darkness and the
rough waves, which are prevalent
al all times ON the outer side OF the
broakwater, had done their work.
Only eleven persons were saved, anu
those were mostly of the crew OF the
vessel. These, too, were feariuiiy
bruised by coming in contact with
the rocks, which were covered with
coral reef. Among those saved was
a little boy, who was thrown on the
breakwater by the shock. BY day
light search was made for the miss
ing passengers, but all that could be
found were their dead bodies gayly
dressed. \ woman was found 10y the
side of the rock in Il standing posi-
ton, with her hair entangled in the
rocks looking as though she were
alive. Another was found with two
babies closely hugged in her arms,
but, alas, life was extinct. The acci-
dent was solely due 10 the gross neg
lisence of the crew, for even a chi,d
might have known that the break
water was quite unlike the shore. |

put on their trial for rash and negli-
gent navigation.

Dancing.

Henry Ward Beecher, took occasio-
in recent sermon, to allude to recrea
ton and amusements as being health
full and natural. j.
"Some persons when they join a
church think that they must put all the
glee and mirth and music out of their
lives. Don't do it ! If song of love
-ipples up to the surface of your heart,
sing it ! sing it Don't let it die My
second mother, for I remember no
other, was my ideal of womanly gentle
ness, propriety and elegance. She was
not however very demonstrative. She
used, before her marriage to be quite
belle, and was often known to trip the
light fantastic toe. One evening, as my
father played tune on the violin, my
mother arose, and in the most graceful
manner possible to conceive, commenced
to dance around the room. I did not
know what to make of It. was speech
less with CONSERVATION and delight.
My father looked on with surprise.
Never ID the whole course of my life
did I see such thing attempted in my
father house. It was delicious, and I got
lesson then that lasted me ever since.
/ think to this day that if my mother
had danced oftener and said my cate
chism little less it would have been
better for us all. IF you have talent
for music, cultivate it; for dancing,
cultivate it; whatever gifts God has
given you, make the most of them

The PenuriOus Postal Card.

One sees some really Napoieonic
strokes of meanness as the outcome of
the postal card system. The audacity
is sometimes superb. A writer saves a
sheet of paper, an envelope, q stamp
for postage and also the usual stamp for
return postage-al by one dexterous
postal card. The spirit of economy
could no further go. But really, what
rights in courtesy have letter. writer's
who do not consider their CORES

their epistles to them the poor compG-
ment OF an enclosura2 How is q
communication to be entertained
when the writer confesses bv the
postal card that it isaa't worth sheet of
paper and postage stamp? That the
postal card is very useful for circular
notes, for announcements, for communi-
eating any simple fact that does not call
for response, no one can deny. But
we submit that social custom ought to
establish missive of this kind calling
for response, excepting on business
matters concerning the recipient, is an
impertinence; and that postal card.

When my daughters hair came off she had been
afflicted with neuralgia in her head for three years
She had used, during that time, many powerful APP
plicatons. These, with the intense heat caused BY
the pains, burned her hair SO badly that in October
1861, it all came off and for two years after her head
was as smooth as her face.
Through the Recommendation of friend, she was
induced to try your COCAINE, and the result was
astonishing She had not used half the contents Of
