anonymo US circular has bseu issued and
is being freely distributed. headed A" The
Succor Mine-Sometbing 10 the interest
OF the Stockholders The circular rep
resents that the estimate Of the Presi-
dent OF the company for shalt 900 feet
in depth was S509,0O0. The mine, it
further states, is composed OF l5-stsDp
mill. with a capacity OF twenty-five tons
per tweniy-fou hours, the receipts at 80
per ton. working twenty-six days in the
mouth, amount to $3.50. The expenses
of ten men. ninety cords OF wood, and
wear and tear of material, amount TO
5000 per month. leaving net gain OF
1910. In forty eight months the net
profit is put down at Sl78, 800. During
that period assessments amounting TO
$342, 300 have been levied and collected.
and there have been several invoices OF
bullion shipped, valued at $4,000, max
ing the total receipts S538, 869. The
circular says the expenses Of the mine
have been as follows: For shaft
OF 900 feet deep, the first $50 feet
sunk by contract. the sum is, at $75 per
foot, timber. SIT, 500; by the company,
200 feet at 800 per foot, 20 600; 400 feet
of drift at $25 per foot. SIC, 600; unex-
pected expenses. $50, 900; in case OF err
ror the expenses are doubled, SIT. 800.
making the grand total Of expenses $780,.
600. The publisher, whoever he may
be, closes his statement with an earnest
desire TO know the whereabouts of the
sum of S403, $50, which must still re.
main in pocket or in safes.

UNFAIR.

Speaking Of President Grant and the
Southern Democrats now in Congress
the Virginia Enterprise says:
They know by 1t that no man in the
nation will hail reform in any department
with more ardor than will he; that no
man desires full measure of peace,
prosperity and the eoptentment which
accompanies order and progress any
more than does the President. They
want to attack him. He has spiked their
guns in advance and no wonder they are
divided as to what policy to pursue.
This is most unfair. They may know
that he will rejoice over these things that
they have come there to further as far as
in them lies, but they probably know
as well rs himself that after nearly seven
years of occupancy the Executive has
not given public evidence of the inward
desire for such measure Of peace, pros
periiy, contentment, order and progress,
as the Enterprise represents him to pos
sess. He may approve Of all this when it
is consun mated, but has let slip some
golden opportunities in the past and par
TALLY sinced an incompetency to
put those desirable measures into tangi-
BILE being Tho assertion they went
to Congress Ito attack him." is, in the
light of recent events, simply ridiculous.
They have gone there with apparently
worthy motives, given utterancs to some
very commendable sentiments, elected
some most trustworthy officers, and If
moi rotten egsed and Kissed by such OF
the audience as the Enterprise represents
may, to use its own phraseology, give a
very respectable and worthy performances.
The Enterprise should mt judge the plot
Of the play till the actors appear in Co.'S
tune and 60 through their parts. at least
enough to leave slight clue for judg.
ing what the denouement shall be. 1t il
probable though that in this case the
wish is father 10 the inner thought and
expressed phrase. II is to be hoped the
actors in the national drama will disap'
point the seekers after high tragedy.

The State Board Of Centennial Manag-
ers met Friday in Carson and appropri-
ated $4,000 for quartz mill. They pro
pose TO run this mill one day in The week
and expect TO crush fifty tons OF ore dur.
ing the time Of the exhibition. A good
coffee mill would crush as much IN that
time. and do The work Just as well. We
think the erection Of this quartz mill for
Sir. Stevenson 3 benefit. il the sSeeTest
nonsense. This little mill will give the
people of the East no idea OF the milling
capacity of Nevada Five hundred dol
lars expended in wood engravings and
photographs of some OF the best mills
and furnaces in the State, in our humble
opinion would do the State much more
credit Il Reno Journal.
The Journal is right in saying the
erection OF the quartz mill is the "sheer-
| est nonsense 1t looks more like bur-
lesque than an attempt to give Nevada a

nature is commencing the matter at the
wrong end. Let Congress inauguraso
such measures as will render resumption

MISTAKEN The San Francisco Bulle-
tin, in the last issue to hand, makes
mistake in charging President Grant
with error in statement in his message.
The Bulletin says:
President Grant fell into a singular
error in his message to Congress. At
the close of it he referred to the docu-
ment as the last annual message" he
will send to Congress. But if he lives
and does not resign he will have to CON-
pose another. His term Of office will not
expire until the 4th of March, 1877. The
Congress which he has now addressed
will re- -assembie on the first Monday OF
December, 1875, for what is known as
the short session. TO it, in compliance
with the usual custom, he will have to
send message. 1t will be as much an
annual message as the one which has
just been laid before the public.
The President was not in error. The
extract in question reads as follows:
As this will be last annual message
which shall have the honor OF trans
hitting to Congress before my successor
is chosen, will repeat or recapitulate
the questions which deem of vital i'm
portance which should be legislated upon
and settled at this session.
Grants successor himself most likely
will be elected in November rs. AS
he will not transmit his next message
till the following December he is right
when he says "this will be my last an.
nual message which l shall have the
honor Of transmitting to Congress before
my successor IL chosen.

Coles circus, which visited here last
Thursday, had big crowd both afternoon
and evening. Taken altogether it was
above the average of shows, especially in
the circus department. The menagerie
thinned out considerably below what the
bills called for. While the show itself was
all right, the "side-show' travelling with it
is one of the most villainous affairs in the
country. 1t is regular swindling concern,
and several young men from the rural dis
tricts (who should have known better and
would if they had read the papers) were
feeced out of from $25 to 500 each by
betting on envelopes, etc. If Mr.. Cole
hopes to secure hereafter the patronage of
respectable people for his show, he will cut
off this black-leg attachment.

HOWES' GREAT LONDON CIRCUS AND
SANGER'S ENGLISH MENAGERIE.

The old saying that "all shows are alike"
has no application in the case of the Circus
and Menagerie under the management of
Henry Barnum. Their exhibition had
been we'll heralded in advance, 80 that peo-
pie attending at Des Moines expected to see
something of real merit. They were not
disappointed. From the time when the
grand procession commenced to move
through the streets, until the last perform
ance closed at night, the city was crowded
with pleased and satisfied people. Travel
ing by rail, and so avoiding the dust and
soil Of the turnpike, all of the wagons,
chariots, trappings and properties looked
fresh, clean and new.
The procession eclipsed anything ever
before seen in the capital of Iowa. The
chariots appear like mountains of gold,
and seen when FURNISHED by as bright sun
as yesterday, made a strikingly beautiful
appearance. Wonderfully artistic work
was done in their formation. Gliding and
sculpture are alike marvels ofbeauty. The
latter comprises models of men and beasts,
and browning all, is the statue of huge
elephant, elegantly caparisoned. In the
saddle is seated lady, flanked on either
side by knights in full armor. Then there
were vehicles shaped like the tabled dragon,
chariots composed of vast piles of carved
animals, all Respondent with golden GID
ings; there were full companies of men-at-
arms clad in coats of mail, heralds with
banners, and a hundred things of interest.
The show insidethe tent was fully equal
to the street parade. Commencing with a
grand march of all the artists, elephants,
and KNIGHTS, it continued to the close with
an unending succession of novelties.
The animals of Mr.. Sanger areunusually
fine specimens. large, healthy and with no
trace of the halfdomesticated appearance
that SO much detracts from the interest of
similar exhibitions. Among them are q
matronly tigress with litter of three tiger
cats. This single cage is worth the price
of ticket. There are FIVE elephants and
all are trained. The pictures portrayed a
pyramid of elephants and ofcourse every
body thought it was but picture inside
was the realization. The elephants formed
the pyramid, just as represented. 1t was
no sham, no humbug. Whatever the bill
promised was fulfilled. The man or wom-
an that attends Howes' Circus will get val
ue received.-Des Moines Register, 9th
May.
Hotoes' London Circus will exhibit in St..
Cloud not until Wednesday, July 18th.
