INCRUSTATION Of BOILERS

A German writer thinks that the
Napier process for preventing the
incrustation of boilers is, after all,
better than any of the many which
have been brought forward as sub
stitutes that the water to be used
should be first analyzed, and, If
found to contain only the bicarbon-
ate of lime in suspension, there is
no difficulty in preventing it from
forming scale that the carbonate
of lime separates from the water at
q high heat, and is kept suspended
in the boiler while the water is
hot, but, when the boiler is stopped
it falls to the bottom in cooling, and
when cold it bardens, adheres to the
metal, and forms Il crust; that a
boiler using hand, fresh water con-
tanning carbonate OF lime has thus
thin layer OF scale formed every
night, at least accumulating to
thick, stony crust, which almost
prevents the passage of the heat
from the fire to the water. To pre-
vent such scale the plan has been
adopted of blowing of The water
freely every evening, about an hour
after the engine is stopped, aud
when the fire has cooled down, this
having the effect to discharge the
sediment which has been precip-
iteted, and prevents it hardening
and adhering to the metal. Al
though, however, this method OF
working boilers will prevent scale,
if the water only contains carbonate
Of lime, engineers are aware OF the
inadequacy of such plan to pre-
vent incruststion when the sulphate
of lime is the principal ingredient
in the water, because 1t does not
precipitate like the carbonate.

SILVER CITY, NEVADA, THURSDAY, JANUARY 13, 49,
BONANZA GROUPINGS.


Up to date the total yield of the
Consolidated Virginia has been $780,
100000, of which $l5,000,00J has
been net earnings and dividends, at
the rate of $40 per share. The last
dividend (on the 9th of this month)
was $l,0S0,OOO, or $40 per share.
The shares number 100000, and
Messrs. Flood & O'Brien and Mackey
own $4,000 shares, leaving $4,000 to
other parties. These gentlemen also
own 295,OOO shares in the California,
with controlling interest IN some
other rich and promising mines. The
writer of this sketch estimates the
production of these mines, as soon as
the new mills shall be completed, at
"a 900, 900 per month; and he thinks
that in three years, with such ad-
ditional milling facil ties as are con-
templated, it will reach $6,OOO,0OO
monthly; which would givegross re-
ceipts of $72,OO0,OOO year, and div
idends of $4s,OOO,OOO. Should the
predictions hold true, the three gen.
tlemen above named may be placed
within five years at the head of the
list of rich men in America.
The Superintendent of the Amazon
writes: Sinking of the joint shaft is
making excellent progress, consider
ing the hard rock we encounter in
bottom of shaft. We are crowding
the shaft with three shifts; our shaft
is timbered in excellent order, and
we are now 315 feet from the surface.
Opened second stations and will soon
open third station. This will give
US large amount of ground to stope
from. Some fine stringers of quartz
have been encountered, and indica-
tions are favorable for change.
Commenced drift January 9Th on the
340-foot level.
The Superintendent Of the Edin-
burg mine writes: Our shaft is now
at the depth Of 80 feet thoroughly
timbered. l will soon resume work,
everything being in readiness to push
the mine vigorously. l consider this
the best location on the South Com
stock, and the heavy groupings and
surface indications show that We have
splendid miniag property. | am GER
tain that the neAt excitement in the
mines will be at this end Of the Com
stock.
The Byron gold mine, located
about three miles south of the Hum
boldt House, on the Central Pacific
Railroad, has been opened by fifty
feet OF tunnel on the vein. At the
end of the tunnel a shaft has been
sunk to the depth Of twenty feet.
The vein is about four feet wide, with
"A pay streak of rich gold ana silver
ore, eighteen inches in width, that
assays from $500 to $3 900 in gold
and silver to the ton.
The Reese River " Reyeillcn learns
that rich and extensive strike has
been made by the Manhattan Com
pany in the South American mine,
Bowman incline. Two ledges of
rich ruby ore were encountered, each
averaging about sixteen inches in
thickness, and each carrying ore
winch it is estimate will mill from
$1,000 to $1,000 per ton.
The North Carson Mining Com
pany disbursed g., ZOO in Carson last
payday. Nothing small about that.

Republican National Convention.

The Republican National Conven-
tion will convene at Cincinnati, to-
morrow. The indications are that
the representation will be very full
and the Convention one of the most
earnest and enthusiastic that has ever
assembled. Like the majority of na-
tional conventions this one will be
divided In opinion as to the candidate
who should be nominated for Presi-
dent. BLAINE, BRIsTow and CoNK-
LING are the prominent candidates
and on the first ballot these three will
poll nearly the entire vote. What
shall follow is something no one can
with certainty at this hour say.
BLAINE will poll by far the largest
vote, but he will not be nominated on
the first and possibly on no succeeding
ballot. If BRIsTow and CoNKLING
could control their votes after the first
trial Of strength, one of them might
win the prize or they at least could
name the candidate. But In this res
pect BLAINE has great advantage
over his opponents. When the dele
gates cease to vote for CoNKLING or
BRIsTow, they absolve their allegi-
ance to them and will vote for whom
soever they please. BLAINE's sup
porters are his friends and he will

An Incident at Reno.

Some wag, desirous Of playing
trick on one of the best citizens of Re-
no, telegraphed him to have some
salmon and fruit and other little fix
ings ready for the lightning train
when it arrived at the Depot Hotel.
How that busy gentleman hustled
about town in search of salmon will
long be remembered, but no such fish
could be found, and he was obliged to
be content with smaller fry In the
shape of dozen trout or so. He pur.
chased boxes ofstrawberries and cher
ries and piling all up in heap in
front of the hotel rubbed his hands in
glee and informed the boys present
that the train would stop in u few
minutes. Judge of his surprise at see-
ing the train slip past like streak of
creased lightning! He looked around
heard a subdued laugh pass through
the assembled crowd, and accepting
tne situation said, "Sold, by thundero
and invited all hands to smile, and
smile that crowd did with q ven-
geance. In case mistakes should Oc-
cur and the wrong man saddled with
the joke we beg leave to state that w.
r. Chamberlain, of the Depot Hotel,
.is not the man. We know this to be
the fact because he sent us word it was
another man just like him.-Carson

Attempted Outrage at Salt Lake.

The Ogden Junction, June 9Th says:
Last Friday daughter of Isadore
Morris, of Salt Lake, years of age,
was accosted on the street by brute
who pretended he was going to dine
with her father, and who induced her
to 60 with him "to get some ice
cream" He led her near to the Jor-
dan, where he attempted an outrage
on her, but she got away from him and
complained to her father, who has
since been searching for him. On
Sunday. evening he discovered the
scoundrel who was identified on the
street by the child. Mr.. Morris gave
him terrible beating and had him
arrested. His name is ]. S. Ryan, he
was placed yesterday under $4,000
bonds to answer before the Grand Ju-
ry. Mr.. Morris confessed to the as
sault, and was fined SIS, Which was
very properly remitted by the Mayor.

Black Roses.

The Stockton Independent of June
Sth says: G. G. Earnest, of this city,
has for number of years experiment.
ed In the production of variously col
ored roses and succeeded in growing
some almost as black as ink. His plan
was to engraft slip of dark red rose
into an oak tree, where they grew,
fourished and blossomed, the dark
sap of the oak effect ually colorng the
roses black. He did not succeed, how
ever, in transferring the slips so treat
ed to the ground, for they Invariably
died in the attempt. Slips of roses en-
grated into locust trees livei for two
years, bearing brown roses. The ex-
pertinent successfully carried out
would be of great botanical interest in
revealing the materials and process
which nature pursues in coloring her
flowers.

Ole Bull and his Wife.

We learn from private sources that
Ole Bull, during the past winter, and
on the circuit of concert tour in Con-

wegian countrymen there that he had
not only finally separated from his
wife, but that he never was legally
married to her at all. Evidence of the
legality of the marriage can easily be
obtained. But there has been misun-
derstanding and separation, and that
Ole Bull will never again take up bed

wife, unless forced to it, there is no
doubt whatever.-Cincinnati CONNER

Vegetables suffered badly, and If We
have many more frosts 1t is doubtful
If we will have any vegetables till
Fall. New potatoes are generally in
the market before this time, but there
are none to be had yet. In converse
tion with prominent vegetable
grower of Hawkinsville the other day
he informed us that he had planted
two crops already this season, and the
frost had killed them both as soon as
they came up, and he was now con-
sidering whether he should plant the

Death from Leprosy near Truckee.

From the Trukee Republican, June 7th.]
A Chinaman died few days ago in
house across the river from town,
from genuine leprosy. The fingers of
both hands and flesh in many portions
of the body were literally eaten away
by the disease, and white leprous
scales covered his arms and body. He
was shocking spectacle. His coun-.
trymen had abandoned him and in a
little desolate room, alone and neg
letcted death found him.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1876-06-13

The anti. Chinese people about Car
son, Nevada, are becoming violent in
their demonstrations against the COO
lies and those who persist In employ
ing them. This Is the worst policy
that could be adopted. 1t will accom-
plish no good result at home, and it
will create sympathy for the Chi
nese In the East. A few armed raids
against the Chinese will at once de-
stroy all hope of Congressional aid in
relieving us of the Chinese curse.
