THE PEck.-At depth of feighiy-seven feet in the main shaft of the Peck mine, they have solid vein of ore one foot in thickness, d sample of which, assayed by George Hoyle, yielded at the rate oi S',5212l The sample assayed weigh ed raw, just half an ounce, and the cupelled but ton, which we were shown by c. c. Bean, on Tuesday, is tangible evidence of its value with out the intervention of the assayer's scales. Still il Is comfort to know precisely how much there is of the bright metal in ton, and this is the only way it can be ascertained without actual re- duction.

New School House

The trustees of this school district have deter
 mined 10 build new school house, or at Ieas,
 tuch an addition to the ,old one as will enable
 the pupils all to get into it, which they canno:
 do at present.
 The question now arises as to what size the
 house should be, in view of our rapidly increas-
 ing population, and whether it would be better
 and cheaper in the long run, to build of brick or ! wood
 To build Of brick is to build for the future, as structure of that material will outlast the pres ent generation, and if in It's construction debt Is incurred, part of which is left for the future 10 settle, there would seem to be more equity in it than if the house had gone to decay by reason of the pershable character of the material before its cost had been iquidated.
 The cost of building Of brick will be consider.
 ibly greater than of wood. Not so much on ac-
 count of the actual building as in the foundation which brick structure requires, and which usually. costs nearly as much, including excava- ton as the walls; but when done it is much more ornamental as we'll as substantial, and in- spires the seeker for a home with confidence in a town commensurate with ;he superiority of brick over wood.
 We are not writing in dctatorial spirit, hay ing long since learned that it was best not to be too drcadfully set in ones way, and to accept the will of the majority, as expressed through their chosen representatives, final settlement of all matters about which differences arise in com munties, and believing that the trustees will act, in their judgement for the best interests of them selves and the peoPi- at large, we intend to sec ond to the very best of our abity their efforts to build good house and maintain good school in it on whatever plan they may adopt
 In union there is strength, and if we expect to become numerous, happy and prosperous peo- pie, We must pull together in school as we'll as all other matters pertaining to our mental and material growth, and when we find ourselves at variance with the opinions of others, should in- vestigatc and see if We may not be in the wrong. and they in the Tight; and if so, it is the part of a good citizen to give up the wrong and en- | brace the right, or if the matter remain in doubt o accord to others the same right to an indc. | endent judgement we claim for ourselves | md meet opposition halfway with proper con- 'essions.
 The necessity for a new and large school house | s so pressing and immediate that delay of even 1 few weeks is of much consequence, and is per aps the strongest argument in favor of building 'f wood. which can be done in much quicker ime than of brick. But brick or wood. or of whatever material that may be chosen. let the chool house be built at once, and the children provided with house in which to go to school, ven though it involve the district in debt

Grunling Like a Pig.

The following story. which is told of John
Smith I've will suppose his name to be Smth)
and his son Virgil, is said to be ''true bill :"
Smith had very promising young horse, now
for the first time training for the track. One
day Virgil, bright little chap, ten years of
age, was spec, ing the colt around the track, and
was making the run in gallant style. when the
colt suddenly SHE'D aud threw the boy off.
The cause of this was young pOrker that had
slowed himself in the brush close to the track, a
quiet spectator of the colts performance, until
the latter got almost opposite him, when bog
like, be made a violent rush, with the result
mentioned.
By the time his anxious father reached the
ground, the boy was on mis- feet, unhurt. Said
ths father:
"virgil, you don't know how to ride colt, to
let little pig like that throw you Off don't
want the colt spoiled / want him to go round
the track, and I'll show you that pig can't pre-
vent him.
"Iil bet you," said Virgil, ''he'I throw you
too, if a pig makes him jump like he did with
me-"
"No, he won't, Virgil" said the elder Smith !;
"you can get in the brush there, and when ride
him round you can grunt like pig. I'll show
you how it is DONE"
Accordingly the colt was caught and mounted
10y the elder Smith, the boy meanwhile having
taken his position in the brush TO play the role
of pig, in which he succeeded to perfection; for
when the sire, after rattling run, had reached
the proper place. he started like young griz-
ely, and tearing ont of the brush, caused the
panic stricken colt TO pitch his rider ngoriously
in the dirt. Gathering himself up he said, saw
sgely:
What in thunder did you do that fort l told
you to grunt like pig, and not like burned
old hog"

Here one of the Committee, noticing the Col. s

sometimes the pain is in the leftside; the
patient is rarely able to lie on the left
side; sometimes the pain is felt under
the shoulder-blade, and it frequently ex-
tends to the top of the shoulder, and Is
sometimes mistaken for rheumatism IN
the arm. The stomach is affected with
loss ofappetite and sickness; the bowels
ingeneral are costive, sometimes alterna-
tive with lax /; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There IS
generally considerable loss ofmemory,

ought to have been done. Asllghf, dry
cough is sometimes an attendant. The
patient complains of WEAKNESS and de-
bility he is easily startled, his feet are
cold or burning, and he complains OF a
priC ky sensation of the skin; his spirits
are low and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few ofthem existed,
