Discovery of Fossils,

We received this week letter from
Mr.. Geo. Coplcn, living on uangman
Creek, Stevens county, giving an inter.
rStng account of the discovery OF some
immense fossil bones, un his brothers
ranch. His brother came into our office
yesterday and favored Us with a more
detailed account ot the discovery, which
Is ccrtanl, one Of great interest to geOl.
ogists, and those engaged in the study
and collection of ancient fossil remains.
MIR. C0pIcn thinks he has hit upon the
bones Of three of those extinct animals
known as Mnstodons, besides innumera.
ble small, delicate bones that appear to
be the remains OF birds. Tie latter are
situated beneath the skeletons Of the
Msstolons. The bones already taken
out consist of an under jaw, about two
feet across at the widest part, an i'm
mcnse tboth three and half inches in
diameter, u part Of the shoulder blade,
u portion ct u tusk which is estimated
to be nine feet in length, q small one per
feet, and quite number ccrvical and
dorsal vrrtebra. The toranan running
through the latter will admit mans
hand, which gives AN idea Of their huge
size. These fossils are found in boggy,
marShy piece of ground bordering on
the banks OF lIangman creek, A num-
ber OF springs burst out over the fiat,
near one of which the bones w,re dis
covered. Mr.. Coplen states that in run
ming n stick down through the mud.
bones hays been encountered at numer-
Gus points about the spring, which goes
to show that they have struck quite u
large deposit of fossil rrmains. Here is
an interesting field Of investigation for
some of the scientific men of the coast,
and there is no liability Of meurllring
any fraud in the case.-t'vm the Waih

The "H.Ost LEDGE"

lhon, the time of the civil war some
,or,ies TO our informant unknown, dis.
r,yrred an immensely valuable ledge of
,innibar in the northwestern part OF 30
roma County, Immediately north of that
,,rt of the famous Geyser road known as
,he - Hogs Back The diScovcrer was
,hen prevented from working 1t, but con.
o,oled it to save it from Others. Some
non years later, j. L. Cook and Others re
discovered it and gave it the name of
,he he"Lo,t Ledge They pTospectcd the
L,lgc, first tested the ore in primitive
r,tcr. consisting chiefly Of II common
dinner pot, and finding it rich put up IL
small rpto?t. With this they took out
about 81 200 worth of quicksilver. The
richness of the region, now known as
"Cinnibar" District, attracted capitalists,
and the "Lost Ledge" was scon after
Incorporated under the name Of she" Oak
lnd" for thirty thousand dollars for one
wear, or for the privilege of two years at
lorty thousand. This company ran the
rctorts a while and then put up Il small
furnace, which they arenow working sue
ccssiuly, producing ten TASKS of quick.
silver day, or three hundred TASKS a
month, which rate Of production has
now continued for eight months past,
and promises to continue with still in.
creased results for an indefinite time.
The ledge increases in richness M it is de.
ycoped. The productive capacity of
the Oakland" is apparently limited
only by its facilities Of reduction. Even
at present low prices this yield amounts
I, ,neaHy five hundred dollars day, and
will, with enlarged furnace capacity, he
made to 50 over thousand. One quar-.
Ter of this ledge is owned in St. Helena
and vicinity, and the holders, not being
mining men, are willing to dispose of it
at n reasonable rate, il applied for soon.
1t is one of the hest mining properties in
ihe State, and there Is speculation in it
10 anyone having few Thousand to in.

former, with IN ample portico on both,
and suImounted with French roof.
The lower floor, on water street is occu.

fitted up, and reading room, in the
rear OF which is the main dining room
and Kitchen. The other portion Of it
facing on Washington street, comprises
besides quarters for Miller's Jcwclry

The nomination of Samuel J. rildrn
for President, by lthe st. Louis Conven-
tion, is most agreeable Surprise to us.
We did not believe that the Convention.
with the rascal element" of the East and
the Bourbon element" of the West
against it, would be able to obtain a two.
thirds vote for so wise and prudent u
nomination. This nomination, following
that Of Gov. Hayes, makes American
politics rcspectabl" again, ;giyes dignity
to the contest ana an assurance TO the
people that let it terminate as itImay, the
country will commence the second cen
tury OF ITS independent existence with mn
Administration in every way worthy OF the
best days of the Republic.
How Ithe contest will terminate is
only a subject tor speculation, nor does
it much matter to ..those who are only
seeking good government regardless of
party triumph. The Independents and
Rciormers have won "a victory in both
party Conventions and are now free to
follow their political bias without haz-
arding any spublic interest. The indie
pendent Republicans will Undoubtedly
all vote for Hayes; the Reform Demo-
Gratis will unanimsusly vote for Tilden
that is, under the supposition that they
were honest in their professions. There
suit will depend mainly upon those two
elements of the Democracy above alluded
to which apparently have nowhere else
to 90.
The contest is now narrowed down to
this, tha: whichever party carries New
York will carry the Union. The fifteen
Southern States are conceded to Tildcn.
The nine Northwestern States, including
Kansas and Nebraska, are just as certain
for. Hayes, together with tive of the
New EnglandStates. Pennsylvania is al
most certain for Hayes, and Connecticut,
New York, New Jersey. California and
Oregon are good fghti, Z ground.
