estimate ~, 1900 tons Of waste rock aro lifted

the lode, which it 10 Intended 10 pierce at a
depth Of 2,oo feet. i has now been
driven over 1900 feet Into the mountain,
and 1s progressing at the rnto Of about eighty
feet per week Four perpendicular shafts
were started. at equal distances along the route
from the surface, to meet the main tunnel. The
workings from the first shait and the entrance
met about three years ago. The second slaft
encountered body Of water, which burst out

The main tunnel reached this shaft In 1875, and

while the orc and waste rock will be easily run

Last evening the Rev. John Henry Hopkins,
OF WillIamsport, Pa., delivered lecture in tho
Masonic Temple on tho "1ruo Relatlons be-
tween Religion and Science" Every new dis
coyery IN science, every new departure from ca-
tablished ald generally believed theory, fecmcd,
said the lecturer, to some as II somo great harm
were done to religion. They seemed 10 soms to
strike q. faith, to be in opposItton to tho re-

th!nga, science md religion, were antagoui4slc,
and they wera III terros OF science. Nothing
was mure untrue, nothing moso unfortunate.

LEGISLATURE ADJOURNED.

The first session of the Sixty-second
General Assembly of this State closed its
labors Wednesday last, after session of
101 days-the shortest session for the
past fifteen years. In another column
we give portion of the work accom-
plished by this body, and we think our
readers will agree with us when we say
that their session has been alike credit
able to themselves and useful to their
constituents. They were rather slow in
getting down to their labor, at first, but
when they got to work, they dispatched
business with commendable alacrity and
with rare good sense and Judgment
The session has been harmonious and
orderly, and we notice there has been
much less absenteeism than usual.
Our member, MFR. PHILLIPS, has taken
rank with the working ard influential
members of the House, and has earned
a areputation for industry, integrity and
hard sense.
Messrs. SWAN and BROWN have well
sustained the reputation of the Thirty
third District in the Senate, and their
AQnstituents may well feel proud of them.
