THE CENTENNIAL SPEAKER.

We learn from an authentic source that
M. C. Kerr, Of Indiana, was nominated
for Speaker of the House Of Representa-
tives at Democratic caucus held in
Washington yesterday evening. The
nomination is. OF course, equivalent to
an election. 1t is one Of the most graft
flying pieces of political intelligence we
have heard for some time. The other
prospective nominees wanted the office,
but the office wanted the man who has
got it, and in selecting him the Demo-
Gratis have taken a step in the right direc'
ton. The selection OF any of the other
candidates would have been a serious
blunder, and in putting Kerr in the re-
sponsible position he will occupy. the
House majority has demonstrated cor
rect conception of the needs OF the case,
and set themselves right on the financial
question from the word go.

Cave In the Richmond Mine.

1t again becomes our duty to chronicle
one of those melancholy events, result
ing in tho loss of human life, 30 frequent
OF late in this vicinity. which occurred
Yesterday morning at the Richmond mine
on Ruby Hill. About 7 O'Clock Wednes-
day morning cave occurred between the
400 and 200 foot levels. which filled the
ore chamber under the former and buried
in the debris two miners named James
Martin and Benjamin Treloar who were
working in raise which was being run
from the 400 foot level, to connect with n
winzs that had been sunk from the 200
foot level. The men were working at the
time OF the accident in portion Of the
mine which had been abandoned for
mining purposes; the object of the con-
nection being an avenue of escape for the
miner in case of an accident TO the main
shaft. The caved ground was of lime
stone formation and perfectly solid.
There was an ore chamber 30x50 feet ex-
tending from the 400 to the 500 foot level.
aud the cave in all probability was &C.
casioned by the Stacking of the lime
stone which formed the roof OF the
chamber. The ground being perfectly
bOllu tueTe III no Otuer cause tudt Gun Us
assigned for the accident. The ground
to all appearances ives perfectly safe and
Mr.. Rossiter. the foreman OF the mine,
had only short time preceding the dis
aster been through that portion Of the
works without noticing the slightest
sign Of impending danger. The place
where the men were working was about
80 feet above the 400foo level, but it is
supposed that their bodies are at the foot
of the raise which they were running.
There is not the remotest possibility of
their escape from death. for II not
crushed by the falling earth they would
have been killed by the concussion OF
the air. which was of sufficient force to
snap like pipe-stems ten by twelve inch
timbers in the fifth level and carry them
thirty feet from their former positions
Work is being prosecuted vigorously for
the recovery of the bodies of the unfor
tunate miners. A drift has been stared
from the side of the tunnel at the 400
level at point about 20 feet from the
bottom Of the winze, where the bodies
are supposed to be lying, and it il
thought that it will take at least three
days to reach them as the drift has t
run through solid rock. Both OF thu
men were natives OF Cornwall, England
We are unable to give any information
concerning the probable amount of dam
age to the mine which will result from
the accident.

Nine States are at present in default in
the payment OF interest on their bonds.
The amount of the discredited debt
reaches total of $l5S. 1000. 600. The
market price of the bonds ranges from
u for Virginia bonds down to 3 for
some very questionable issues OF North
Carolina bonds, The lefaulting States
are all Southern, and the debt has been
almost entirely contracted since the war,
q greater portion of it being the result Of
reckless and inefficient management. The
States creditors have no legal remedy,

THE FoRTY-FOURTH CONGRESS-

Another chapter in American history |
opens tomorrow. and one which will
contain many passages OF interest. The
National Legislature that will assemble
on the morrow in Washington will meet
under somewhat anomalous ciicum-
stances. The Vice Presidents seat will
be vacant. and many old timers, heroes
OF q hundred battles, will be absent.
Sumner will never moro thrill the Senate
with his eloquence, and Messrs. Morton.
Conkling and Allison, as they look
across the the Senate Chamber. will take
no little pleasure in the thought that
Andy Johnson will never again trouble
them. In the Senate we find forty Re-
publican, twenty mine Democratic, and
three Independent members. In the
House, where the Chief interest centers,
there will be two hundred and ninety-two
members. OF these one hundred and
seventy-eight are Democratic, one hun.
dred and eight Republican and six Inde'
pendent. NJ. G. Kerr will be the
first Democrat occupying that Of
fee since James l.. Orr laid down
the gavel on the 4th of March, 1859.
Next to the Speaker, the Clerk is the
most important officer in the House; for
this office there are plenty Of candidates
it will probably be given to a Southern
man. The first three days OF the session
will doubtless be occupied in p.rliamen-
tary preliminaries, and it will be Thurs
day or Friday before things settle to
working basis. The work to do is diver
SIZED. and will probably commence by al
8 "investigatory" move on the part OF thu
Democrats. Congress is about equall

shrewd party tactics. It promises to b

the history of the Republic and its cours
will be watched with the most intense in

in the last Congress will be reversed; tn
Republicans will have chance to ado.

Speaking of Judge Dunn the Arizona
Miner says; aside from his bigotry in
religious matters as against secular edu-
cation, we have failed, with all the blus-
ter that has been made against it, to see
where he has been remiss in his duties
as a Judge" No man, whether judge or
president, has any right to interfere in
religious matters. and without going into
a defense of Judge Dunn's course it is
evident that Grants action in removing
him for the cause alleged is unwarrant'

THE OPHIR NINE.

The Enterprise Of yesterday makes the
following statement Of the condition and
prospect Of things at the Ophir mine
The Opbir Minirg Company have
completed the building containing their
main hosting works, with the wings
thereunto belonging, as that for the
pumping machinery, carpenter, back
smith and machine shop. etc. and yes
terday the frame Of the building which
is to cover the incline hosting works
was being raised. The foundation tor
the hydraulic oreGump was also beng
laid Yesterday afternoon. 1t Is at this
dump that ore will be raised by hydraulic
power in order that it may be loaded
uron the ore cars of branch track
from the Virginia aud Truckse Railroad.
The water for this use is brought from
reservoir situated on the side OF the
mountain some 200O feet west OF tbs
works and over 400 feet above them !;
thus is furnished ample and cheap
power for handling any amount OF ore.
The new hosting engine Is being used
in running a hosting tank, by means OF
which the water is being raised from tho
mine The tank is of iron and holds
about 500 gallons OF water. The run
ming Of this tank prevents any accumu-
lation of water below. The donkey en-
CINE is being used i'll makirg the change
Of guides in the north compartment ct
the shaft A change in tho pattern OF
the guides is required for the reason
that the safety apparatus of the cage to
be used in the compartment Is different
from that on the cage formerly ran
there it having eccentric toothed
wheels that grasp the sides OF tie guides,
instead Of ehjss!- shaped clutches that
are thi0wn out and forced into them.
The large blocks Of stone that are TO
form tho bed of the pumping engine
yesterday being put in place the pump
rods are being constructed, the susiace-
bob is being put in place. ala IN two or
three weeks the pump will be III opera
ton. The ore-houso at wlicn wagons
are 10 be loaded is about completed.
For the month OF November Che bullion
shipment from ore reduced ut the Win
field mill amounted to s6G. 294 40. Yes
terday was pay day" at the mine,
There ure Just five hundred names en-
the payroll, and the amount Of money
paid these men for work done during
November MAS 81, l2G 10. Thus ii
will be seen that the value of the bullion
shipped during November amounted to
SO. 16S 80 more than was paid out for
LABOR performed during the same month.

vet We have it reported to Us by one
who knows the tops Of mountains and
is acquainted with the places where
storms are born, that at and about Mar
lette Lake the snow lies at depth Of
not less than six feet. This gives Us
promise OF stock and store Of water
for the nils and streamlets which help
the farmer through tho heats of summer
and put life and msaliness into the Sc
rene potato, slongate the bulk and fibre
Of the succulent carrot, swell the foliate
strata of the stern and substantial cab
bage, give length Of body aud days to
the aromatic paI,nip. put the beauties
Of tender and nutritious growth I'M
der and into the leaves and tendrils of
strawberry vines and give guaranty Of .
green and vigorous career TO the sweet
young clover. Rivers that move
will flow with plenteous volume indus
tries will thrive and days OF prosperity
and health will be insured, for the Bank
Of Snow, which is deep drifted enough
TO defy the hot breath Of August, 10 bet

of Gold, and will never suspend.
