A Golden Mountain.

Miners from the great San Juan mines
OF northwestern Colorado say that gold
in marvellous quantities has been discov-
cred in the Sangrc de Christie range of
mountains, which lie ON the eastern bor-
der of the san Luis Park and about
seventy-iive miles from Pueblo. The
first discovery made on this range was
in November, 1874, since which time the
Cambria, Hidden Treasure, Little Giant,
Jackson, Centennial, and Revenge gold
lodes have proved themselves of great
value. Returns from three of these mines
tested in Swansea showed from $40 to
$3.50 gold per ton, and showing some
silver in each. The Jackson lode, since
the above test was made, has given ores
that assay from five thousand TO forty
thousand dollars gold per ton. A stamp
mill of ten ton daily capacity has been
erected at this mine, and will be in opera
tion by March next. Over two hundred
tons of this gold quartz ore is now on
the dump, from mines on the Sangre de
Christie, which will he reduced next
season. This gold belt, as far as pros
pected, extends from Mosco Pass twenty
niles north. South from Del Norte,
thirty miles, lie the gold districts of Ala
moza, Summit, Telluric and Decatur
Perhaps South Mountain, in Summit dis
trict, affords the best yield of gold in
that vicinity. A correspondent of a
Denver paper says that it is one solid
mass of gold quartz. Mr.. Harry Adsit,
one of the returned miners, who has pros
pcc,ed in the San Juan country for the
last three years, corroborates this state
ment. lie says that South Mountain is
about two miles long, and that there is
but one true fssure vein in it; yet all of
it, the whole mass, produces gold more
or less rich. 1t is upon this mountain
that the famous Little Annie lode is 10.
Gated, one-half of which was recently sold
to parties in New York for three hun
dred thousand dollars. This mine, aver
aged, will run about forty dollars per
ton. Silverton is one hundred miles west
from Del Norte in San Juan county, and
about fifty or sixty miles south from Sill
verton are the La Plata gold mines, situ-
ated on the La Plata river. There is a
gold bar running along the margin of
that stream, about five miles of which
has been taken up, and last season con-
siderable amount of placer mining was
done. A system of bitches has been con-
structed, and next season promises some
lively placer mining at this point. But
it is to the quartz lodes that the miner
looks for permanent, reliable returns,
after all; and here we have the Comstock
mine, discovered by Captain John Moss,
an old California miner, which perhaps

One hundred pounds of gold quartz ore
taken from this mine in October last
netted one thousand five hundred dollars,
while ore taken out in the following
month ran one hundred and twenty thou.
sand dollars per ton. About twenty
mines are being worked in the San Juan
country this seasoE, and their winter
product is variously estimated at from
six hundred thousand to one million
dollars.

Docs WITH A DEsTINY.-The snug
Cling of lace is a very important and in
teresting feature in its history. From
| 700 downward we are told that in Eng
land the prohibition of lace went for
nothing. Ladies would have foreign
lace, and if they could not smugglc it
themselves the smuggler brought it to
them. Books, bottles, babies, boxes,
and umbrellas, daily poured out their
treasures" Everybody smuggled At
one period much lace was smuggled into
France from Belgium by means of dogs
trained for the purpose. A dog was
caressed and petted at home fed on the fat
of the land, then, after season, sent across
the frontier, where he was tied up, half
starved, and ill-treated. The skin OF a
bigger dog was then fitted to his body,
and the intervening space filed with
lace. The dog was then allowed to es-
cape and make his way home, where he
was kindly welcomed with his contra
band charge. These journeys were re-
peated till the French custom-house,
getting scent, by degrees put an end to
The traffic. Between 1920 and 1886, 4O.-
276 dogs were destroyed, q reward Of
thsee francs being given for each.

kept eggs perfectly sweet and good for a
Whole year.: After Matching time is passed,
collect from thirty to fifty dozen Tor buy
them fresh, when eggs are fifteen or twenty
five cents per ~;,ozen), and prepare a liquid
thus: One pint Of common salt, one pint
Of lime, dissolve in tour gallons Of boiling,
water let it settle and put the eggs into the
liquor in stone Jars when cold. Cover the
eggs entirely in the liquid, and use stone,
not soft crockeryware Jars. Thus embed
ded, eggs will keep for twelve months, and
come out in good shape, though after oil,
they will not be equal to new laid eggs.
