Presidential Proclamation.

WASHINGTON, June 26.-The fol-
lowing proclamation was issued to-
day by the President:
The Centennial anniversary of the
day on which the people Of the
United States declared their right to
separate and equal station among
the powers of the earth seems to de-
mand an exceptional observance.
The founders of the Governm ent at
its birth and in its feebleness, invoked
the blessings of Divine Providence,
and the thirteen colonies and 3,000,-
900 of people, have expanded into a
nation of strength and numbers COM
handing a position for which fervent
prayers were then offered. 1t seems
fitting that ON the occurrence of the
hundredth anniversary of our exist
ence rs nation grateful acknowledge
ment should be made to Almighty
God for the protection vouchsated to
our beloved country. /, therefore,
invite the good people # the United
States on the approaching fourth day
Of July, in addition to the usual OBJ
servanceS with which they are ac-
customed to greet the return OF the
day, to mark its recurrence by some
pubic religious and devout thanks
giving to Almighty God for the bless
ings which have been bestowed upon
US AS a nation during the centen-
nary of our existence, and buMbly to
invoke the continuance of His favor
and of His protection. In witness
whereof have hereunto set my hsnd
and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington
this Goth day of June, A. ID. 1876
and OF the independence of the United
States the one huudredth.

Mice and Lions.

1t pleases the Democratic press to
speak of Governor Hayes as no
body, u pigmy, a nonentity. The
crooked 4Esop of Democracy likens
other candidates, now that they are
defeated to the lion, the tiger and the
elephant, and Hayes to the mouse.
II must DO very satisfactory to them
to reflect that this Republican mouse
has met i'll deadly combat the Demo-
cratic lion, elephant and jackai, and
has defeated them all. Ohio has
been the national battle ground ever
since the present parties were form
ed. Stephen a. Douglas left behind
him no Democratic leader at the
West OF wider or stronger popularity
than George IL. Pendleton, whose
hosts OF friends invaded New York
at the National Convention of 1868,
and who would then have been
date for the Presidency but for the
two thirds rule. Yet MIR. Pendleton
tried to defeat Il. b. Hayes for Gov
crnor of Ohio, and got badly beaten
after contest of then unprecedent.
cd fierceneSs. Allen G. Thurman
has for years been the acknowledged
leader of the democratic party in
the Senate of the United States. In-
tellectually, no other Democrat who
has been in that body since the war
is match for him; his personal
character is pure beyond reproach,
and his candor and dignity have al
ways secured for him very high re-
spect even from political opponents.
Yet in Ohio, where he is known,
loved and honored, MIR. Thurman
tried to defeat K. b. Hayes and got
beaten. William Allen is man of
very different stamp. He appeals
with wonderful power to the basest
aud most ignorant elements OF both
parties and, having been easily elect
Ell in 1873, was selected to lead the
great struggle of 1875. Even by po-
litical foes his campaign was pro-
bounced marve. of energy, en-
durance and INSCRIPTIONS cunning.
Yet he was beaten by this same Il.
b. Hayes. II Republican mice have
such terrible power as compared
with the strongest Democrats in
Ohio, is it not about time for the
Democratic party to wind up bust
ness.-Crhe New York Tribune.

Now that silver has fallen so grea

Now that silver has fallen so great
ly in price and is not likely ever
again to reach its standard of few
years ago, assayers ought to adopt a
new figure for calculation that would
be nearer the truth, At present all
silver assays are calculated ut $l.29
per ounce. On 200 ounces of ore
this gives rise to an error of $25 per
ton-Quite a serious difference if one
is figuring whether his mine can be
worked probably or not. The great
majority Of people who have need
of assays are unable to detect the
error or to correct it, and thereby
often mislei as to the value OF their
ores. We would suggest that assay
ers have at the bottom Of their GER
tificates a printed note stating the
valuation used at the time of assay,
BY leaving the place for the figure
blank the quotation for the day may
be employed. Two results will be
accomplished by this plan: first. a
true result will be given; and second,
miners will rapidly get an insight
into the methods used for calculating
values of the precious metals to alter
the assayers' figures should fiactua-
tons in the prices of the metals de-

The KossUrH MINE.-Our re-
porter paid visit on Monday to
the Kossuth mine. to take note o!
what was going on thereabout. The
water is now fully under control,
and work is progressing rapidly in
the $50 and 500-foot drifts. Since
work in these places was resumed
"A week or so ago-about seventy
five feet advance has been made in
each. The 350-foot drift is III fine
looking vein matter. some samples
of which displayed upon the dump
look very fine. The other drift is
in east country rock. Recently
new flues have been put in the
steam boilers. and everything
abont the mine is in excellent
working condition.
