The last volume Of the american
Cvclopedis," Published BY. d. APP
pleton & Co., is just out. There are
sixteen volumes in all, and the price
is Sc per volume. The benefits of q
cyclopedia in a collection Of books
are SO we'll known that it is almost q
work of supererogation to mention
them. 1t is sufficient to say that one
who aspircs to have a surface knowl-
edge of all things, so that he may
understand FULLY whatever books he
may read, can gather such knowledge
in the very course of his reading by
the use of cyclopedia. The
very best that was ever pub
lished is the one under notice.
Its contributors number among them
some of the first specialists of Amer
lea and England, and all the scien-
tific men of the day have added their
share to enrich its pages. II, G..
Preshaw, the agent for Nevada, is
now on the Comstock soliciting sub
scribers. Those who have turn for
knowledge could not spend their
money more advautageously than to
buy this great work. Those who
have the preceding volumes of course
want the last one. Mr.. Preshaw is
also agent for "The Library of British
Poets" a new work by the same pub
fishing house. This. work is in three
volumes, beautifully illustrated with
steel engravings, and is sold at
from So to IS per volume, according
to binding. In conjunction with
these superior works, the same agent
has "Bryant's History of the United
States" In four volumes, large oc-
tavo, OF coo or zoo pages each. Sid
ney Howard Gray is associated with
Mr.. Bryant "a the authorship of this
work, and the regulations of these
men is sufficient guarantee of the ex-
cellenee of the production. Gray has
for long time been associated with
Bryant in his editorial work, and is =
literary man of ripe culture and large
Bryant's history, there
fore, will be the most attractive, in
literary style, we may be sure, of all
the United States histories yet writ
ten. Price from SO to $40 50 accord
ing to binding. The rooms Of the
agent Of these books are on the
corner of Washington and
d streets, Virginia.

Col. Harper has handed me your

the letter of Phillips. l have never

these men that you had funds To
" liquidate their claims, which does
not mean to pay the full claim, but
10 settle il upon the terms agreed
upon by you. had no intention To
convey the idea that you had funds
10 pay the full amount of these
claims, but that you would settle
them as you agreed. l do not re-
member the expression used in my
letter, but the above is my intention.
l regre, to have these men cause
you any trouble on account of my
letter. and l assure You l shall write
no more letters there except to you.
Further than this We stand by you
and trust you fully in the matter,
and are satisfied you have done right
and the best for our interest that YOU

that CAN'T. Caldwell will publish a
card 10 day or two accompanied
with afiiavi,s and abundance of
indisputable proof to show that the
charge recently made against him
has no foundation whatever. Pending
the publication of that card we are
permitted to publish this letter from

| The Enterprise commits = grave
blundcr when 1t intimatcs that un.
less something be done to remonetize
silver our mines will, many of them,
shut down within few months.
When silver was at its lowest ebb
and stocks were on the verge Of
panic prices the Enterprise was fool
ish enough to say the same thing. 1t
said, we believe, the probability was
that the leading mines of the lead
would be likely to shut down in q
few weeks. At that time we referred
to the fact that forty per cent. of the
product of those mines was gold,
and that there was no discount on
that metal; consequently the predic-
ton of the Enterprise was grounded
on nothing. Its present prediction Is
the same. There is no danger that
our mines are gong to cease opera
tons at all, and there is no reason to
suppose that silver will not eventu-
ally rise in value whether it be re-
monetized in this country or not.
There is no excuse for publishing
such statements as that our mines
will have to be shut down. because
it retards the collecting of assess
ments in San Francisco, upon which
alone the non-producing mines are
worked. Newspapers should be able
to see a little further ahead than the
average individual. and, having such
foresight, they should not add to
any transitory fears by making them
appear as well grounded. Silver
will by and by come up, just as sure
as that stocks will, and the Enter.
prise will then see the folly of add
ing weight to the present depression
by joining in the timorous fear.
Mr.. JOHN CRoNIN has taken up
the pen. We welcome him into the
field of journalism. There is room
for few more writers who have ha-
bitnated themselves TO live on reduced
diet and curtail their individual per-
sonal expenses within a narrow limit,
Mr.. Cronin begins by defending the
Irish against the seductive SMILES
of Charley belong. Mr.. Cronin
ought 10 be very familiar with all the
requisites of an excellent article of
this kind and he ough, to know ex-
actly where that nationality most
need the shield of so able pen as
his own. 1t was very judicious in
Mr.. Cronin to select subject in
which he might be expected to feel
some personal interest in making
his debut before so critical literary
constituency AS that Of Silver. The
sagaeity evidenced in that alone is
sufficient to warrant that in his
whole career Mr.. Cronin will always
be guided by the most compliment
good judgment-without winch all
Journalistic efforts go for naught.
Again we welcome Mr.. Cronin into
the field.
