On the 2lst of September the stock
holders Of the Utah Mining Company,
limited, held a meeting at their Offices in
London. The chairman stated the con-
dition OF the company as follows
As to our finances, we have ESQ at the
bank; we have possibly $50 more assets
in the way of calls unpaid, and that is
about fair valuation Of them. We have
claim made upon us in Utah by the
solicitors out there which we demur to,
believing that we are free from debt in
Utah altogether. That Is the state of
your finances, and the present state OF
the mine is that nothing is being done,
but that II is in the charge of Mr.. Ar.
gall, at cost TO us OF 500 per month.
l am utterly and en-
trely sick at heart of the whole affair. {"
AT one time" says the Salt Lake
Herald, "the Utah was acknowledged
by all who were acquainted with it, to be
a valuable property; but it was long ago
struck by that blight which invariably
rests upon the mines in this Territory
which fall into the hands of English
companies; and because OF their failure
to make mine pay they rail at the peo-
pie, the country and its institutions. II
the Utah ever was good mine it is one
to-day. II certainly contains whatever
wealth it may have possessed. We be-
lieve it will yet prove itself q paying
property; but this cannot be until it is
worked The mineral lodges in America
are not in the habit OF themselves yield
ing mp their wealth and shipping it across
the Atlantic to English pockets. Ours
are not that kind of mines. The Utah
| Company must take out of their mine oil
they will ever get from it. Holding
meetings in London and bemoaning the
melancholy history of English mining in
Utah and the wretched Territories about
it will never develop mine here oil
elsewhere. The probilities are that the
old company will either be wound up OIL
give place to new one, composed Of
some of the present shareholders. In
the former case the mine will probably
be sold. when it may fall into the hands
OF enterprising parties. Should new
English company be formed, We may ex
pect corps Of those professional hum
bugs known as experts will BIO sent t.
, examine the property, and by the tim'
. the rock sharps are paid for their re
ports and heavily salaried resident
director is duly installed. the company
will be out of funds. and the mine re-
main in the same condition that it il
now; when the public attention will b.
directed to another episode in the mel
ancholy history OF English mining, etc.

ENGLAND AND CHINA.

The difficulties OF China and England
seem to have suggested in some quar-
tiers that England may not confine her
movements in the China business to
obtaining satisfaction for the murder
of British subject The London Times,
discussing the Chinese subject, says:
English nerve, muscle. habits of
obedience and breech.loaders form
wedge that would cut through and
through the pulpy mass of Oriental life.
What was done in India can DO repeated
in China. But We must warn any bud
ding Gives that it can be done only at
the expense Of the same consequences to
ourselves. II We shatter the Chinese
authority we shall next be loaded with
the responsibility of putting some au-
thority in its place. The necessity would
not come in rush; it would appear in
sidiously, and In hundred disguised
forms. just as il did in Hindostan. But
we should be dragged on bit by bit, often
against onr will, and as il we were blind
folded. We should be dragged on as we
were in India more than q century ago.
and as the Russians in Central Asia are
to-day. Peremptory orders against con-
quest would Of course be sent from Lon
don, just as they are sometimes dis
patched from st. Petersburg to Turke
stan. Adventurous spirits would b,
punished for striking too hard and goinI
too far, just as they sometimes are repri
manded for committing these offenses il
Central Asia to-day. But young, ardent,
daring spirits would not give a thought
to such cobweb checks. Fired by the
passion OF self-distinction, BY civilized
mans hatred of disorder, and by his de-
testaiion of the atrocities which would
stain Chinese warfare, they would run
the risk of receiving rebuke from the
authorities at home, and If they should
be peculiarly successful, as they woult
be, they would of course be forgiven
Thus are built up the responsibilities o
empire"
While this picture, says the Baltimore
Sun, appears to deprecate the conques
OF China, il is we'll calculated to rous
ambition and cupidity. The rivalry o
Russia is not likely to render the schem,
practicable. No opposition that thu
Chinese could offer would be in the way
OF great moral and military powe
whose conscience would permit it to max
pray of this vast, helpless mass Of hu
mainly. The question Of morality, how
ever. might be appropriately considere,
in the case.

The Chicago Inter Ocean estimates
that one-seventh of the product OF the
mines Of Nevada is spent in whisky and
gambling. and talks as though this
amount was wiped out OF existence
thereby. 1t don't seem to consider that
the money spent for liquor passes through
the hands Of and helps support the re-
taller the wholesaler, the manufacturers
and the working men employed in the
distilleries where it is made, and their
families, and that the money expended
in gambling, though lost by one and
gained by another. is still in existence
and forms part OF the circulating me-
dunn OF the country. But then it is gold
and silver. and this kind OF currency is
looked upon by the Inter-Ocean ns mere
trash; as that X per believes that the

Some paragraphist has compared the
daily newspaper to q bill of fare and says
:" Just SO it is with every we'll edited
newspaper. No man is expected to read
everything in the paper, or to like it if
he reads it, but every man is expected to
find enough thnt ID good and useful and
acceptable and agreeable in the columns
spread out before him to be full equiv
alent for what the paper cost him, and if
he happens to find on the carte an article
which otfenas his taste, or is in opposi-
ton to his views he has to just let it
alone, and leave it for whose taste it was
gotten up. Ia choosing his paper one
should do just as he does in choosing his
restaurant. he should choose the one
whose general style suits him; but never
fret himself or vex his neighbors by
grumblins and scolding about his news
paper, which. after all, is as necessary to
his comfort as his dinner"

PRESENCE OF MIND.-A remarkable in
stance OF presence Of mind on the
part OF Captain OF man-of-war is re.
lated by the st. Petersburg papers.
About the end OF the last month the
Russian war frigate Olaf. which had ac-
companied the yacht of the Czarowitch
to Copenhagen, was lying at anchor
among hundreds OF other ships in the
harbor, when fire was discovered in a
coal cellar below, which was only few
feet from the powder magazine. There
was no time to put out the fire before
1t could reach the magazine, and m
explosion Of the large stores OF car
tridges and gunpowder contained in it
would probably have destroyed not
only the Olaf and surrounding ships,
but part of Copenhagen itself. Cap.
tain Rehbinde. commander of the
Olaf, saw at once that the only thing
to be done to prevent the catastrophe
was to sink the ship. After sending
away the crew, with the ships papers.
cash boxes and most valuable instru-
ments in boats. he ordered the carpen-
tiers and engineers to make leak in the
vessel. and half an hour afterwards she
sank in not very deep water. Next day
she was raised again. and, after acme
provisional repairs, was taken to Cron-
stadt. where she is now lying in dock
pending her complete restoration for
service. The damage done is said to be
comparatively trifiinR. and the Court
martial held on the officers OF the vessel
unanimously expressed the highest praise
OF the captain and his subordnates.
The Emperor has appointed him his aid
de.camp, which is one of the highest
honors conferred on Russian naval Off
oers, and the officers and men under him
have received gratuitiss from the EN-
peror'sprivy purse. Pail Mall Gazette.
