And, in either case, that life must be
a dwarfed and unhealthy one that does
not provide exercise for our spiritual
faculties-for worship and charity and
patience and magnanimity. Exercise
of soul, mind and body, can alone
bring us to the stature of the perfect
man.

THE COAL

Used heretofore has been principally
from fir timber. Juniper is said to make
a much better article and wAl'be used
mainly hereafter. The cost of coal
will be much less, as well as the quality
improved next summer Now teams
that draw it to the sheds have their
work to do in and over deep snow,
and have to be fed on hay and grain at
high figures. Next Summer they will
have good roads to work on, and the
rich grasses of a " thousand hills " to
feed upon; consequently the cost of
transportation from the pits will be
greatly reduced.
ALL THE LEDGEs
So far worked or prospected cluster
around the town of South Mountain,
but I am informed by those who ex-
plored the country when the ground
was clear of snow, for a distance of
six miles to the east there is continu-
Gus range of metal bearing hedges sure
to be developed during the coming
Summer. aud that as you go east the
quality of precious metals increases
while the quality of base metals de-
creases.

It could do 30 only BY selling its greenbaoks
10 gold~brokoFs for coin with which to pro-
cure the gold necessary to pay the interest on
Its bonds. Could tho Government buy gold
for ita notes on any bettoz terms than mer-
chants can with which to pay duties? What
would be gained BY receiving grcenbaoks
from the importers for duties and thon hav-
Ing to sell those greenbacka for gold with
which to meet the interest on tho bonds?
How would that process improve tho value Of
tho greenbacks, or reduce the gold premium

OF the elegant residence, at the corner of Pitt
and General Taylor streets, Sixth District, owned
and occupied by Mr.. Daniel Webster, of the Mer-
camille Agency. The fire was confined about
three quarters of an hour in the upper portion,
and though the department was promptly on
hand, their efforts availed nothing, owing to the
lack of water in that vicinity, the engines for a
long time being unable to get anything but a
mixture Of mud and water.
The flames made great Roadway, and in short
time the whole building was enveloped in light
blaze. By the exertions of the citizens and fire.

saved, though considerably damaged. The en-

$50, 900, as follows: $4,000 in the Merchants Mu-
tual, $1,000 in the New Orleans Mutual, and $1,000
in the Phoenix of New York.
The owner of the house can account in no way
for the cause Of the fire, unless a spark from the
the kitchen chimney ignited the roof. MIR. Web
ster had just arranged his home in eiegant style,
and the loss sustained by him, not altogether
pecunlarily, is great indeed.
