Paneuiteh Cold Mines.

We find in the Salt Lake Herald an
interesting letter from "Spicer," an oc-
caaional correspondent Of the RECORD.
Spicer writes about the prospects Of
Leeds District ard the supposed
gold leads near Panewitch. We append
the following extract:
The gold discoveries have not excited
anything Of stampede as yet. Since
writing about. them In my previous
letter have learned from Joseph Meeks
more about them. They are situated on
the left hand sids OF the Sewer river,
about i've to six miles above Assays
ranch. or Clearwater. making them near
the head Of the stream. near the rim OF
the basin, and nearly opposite the head
OF Virgen river. They are also about
twenty i've miles south of Panguitcb, and
twenty miles from Papguitch lake. The
country about them is mostly covered
with dirt and timber. with only an oc.
casional outcrop OF rock. The dis
covery was made In one OF these out.
crops OF rock and were quartz veins with
hoDey-combed and soft yellow quartz. I
cannot vouch for what they have found
because did not see any OF it.; but am
told they had free gold In specks; bad
made an assay Of half an ounce and got
q gold button four times the size OF pin
head. and that Capt. Jack Shehan had
pounded mp piece and washed 1t ont.
getting great many colors. The story
told me is, that old man Meeks, who
lived for many years at Parowan, found
these mines many years ago, told his
son Joseph Of them and Joe and Ed.
Maynard went and found them.
i A mill we must have or throw up the
sponge. There is but one Tecumseh
mine here, and that will not benefit eli
OF us. But there are from ffty to one
hundred claims opened, tho great ma
jority OF which produce profitable ores
with mill here, but good for nothing
TO ship. obey won't pay. Ores that
will mill from $40 to 500 are common
and plentiful. but ores that go over 500
are not abundant. In my last I gave
you partial list OF mines that are being
worked and ore produced. OF course
did not detail all. only such as had come
under my observation.
NEW Discoveries.
Are still in vogue and in new places, but
none of high grade. These new things
are all OF mixture Of iron with silver,
the top specimens indicating that they
will pay well to mill here. Work on the
mines 10 every instance is telling we'll
for the camp and adding enco uragsment
to the miners. In many instances both
tho volume and grade OF the ores are in.
creased with the depth.
VERTICAL sHAYr
OF only thirty-three feet was sunk at the
foot OF the white reef, striking Q very
large and rich veip OF ore, at distance
Of over two hundred feet from the crest
of the ridge. where the output OF the
vein is, thus proving that it both con.
tinues and increases as it goes down.
This shaft will encourage many others
to go and do likewise. This reef has an
outcrop of three or more veins at its
crest, continuing distance in line OF
about eight miles. Now that the veins
have been struck at the foot of the hill
by sinking only thirty to forty feet, many
other shafts will be sunk with like re-
suits. and thus produce vast amount OF
ore. and much Of this ore, by assortment
will bear shipment.

rnn st. LOUIS CONGESTION.

To-day the National Democratic Con.
vsntion will assemble and organize at
81. Louis. What the result of its de-
liberations will be. il difficult to guess.
Judging from the past. tho majority of
Its members may safely be relied upon
TO do tho wrong thing at the wrong
tine, and make hopeless muddls Of the
business which they are sent to con-
tract. The latest phase OF appearances
~ reported BY the telegraph. is that the
eight will not be between any two or
moro candidates, but between the friends
Of Gov. Tlden 10 secure his nomination
and Iammany Hall to defeat him. Il is
most creditable 10 Governor Tilden that
he 10 the special object Of the envenomed
hatred Of tbs society which has dis.
eraeed Its party and the American
people. There could not be . higher
complement paid to Uncle Samuel J.
Tildsn than that combination OF the
worst elements that ever afflicted party
should be his avowed enemies. The
fact that Tammany opposes Tildsn with
all sound thinking persons should
be sufficient reason to support him.
There is. however. one fact that the Con-
vention can lay to heart and digest as
we'll .sh sAAs unity may. Tha. is. II
Il wishes its party to have . reasonable
chance 70 defeat the Republican nomi-
nee. its members must nominate Samuel
J. TiIdsn. They must also place him
upon platform sound on ths school
question. sound upon tariff for revenue
purposes only, sound upon Administers
tive reform. sound upon hard money and
the protection Of the public creditor.
sound upon equal and exact justice to
oil sections. and sound upon the proven.
ton and cure Of the Chinese plague. II
that 10 done. then will the csmpsign be .
lively ono. with fair chance for each
candidate to win. II on the other hand
Tsmmany is successful in defeating Til.
den, then the Convention and party
must accept the odium OF allowing 90
dissipated ring to control it's councils
That opprobrium will be more than any
political organization can carry and sus.
tain before the people.

which have excited the anger Of the

Children's Fashions.

LITTLE girls, from six to ten, wear hats
which turn down all round and up ir the
back. The flowers and bows are placed
on top. Brown, white, and white and navy
blue combined, are the favOrite colors
Older girls wear turbans; and especially
the Derby; these have scarfs of soft twilled
silk in Madras colors, or plain colors, and
stiff wing on one side. Sailor hats are
OF dark blue straw, the brim turned up all
round. For little boys these sailor hats
are more like those worn by Portuguese
sailors; the magic words Invincible, y
or & Serapis," in gilt letters On the front,
give them a thoroughly nautical appear
ance. Scotch caps, in blue straw, are
also very novel; these have the thistle in
oxidized silver in front.
Children's dresses are still worn killed :;
in plaids the blouse shape is a special
tavorlte for boys and girls Of five or six
1t is sometimes made double breasted, and
is confined at the waist by scarf Of soft
wooden material, the color of some stripe
in the plaid. Often the edges of the
blouse are cut in squares and bound. The
very plainest methods for making up
children's garments prevail, simplicity in
trimming being seen in all the samples
sent from Europe. The favorite style Of
street garment for little girls is of gray
cloth, with gabrielle front, sacque back
and gilt Plaitings set in at the waist; a
broad sash starting from the side seams
ties loosely at the back just above the kilt
plaitings. Variations of this, in which
embroidered bands or silk GALLONS define
tabs and pockets on the front of the dress,
are found in all the children's dress de-
partments. Little boys wear English
walking jackets over their killed suits :;
these have galloons of worsted or silk as
binding, and handsome oxidized buttons.
Wide embroidered bands come express
ly for babies dresses; these are also to
be found in ecru linens, as we'll as white
materials.
Sashes are brocaded in satin on silk.
lvyleaves, convolvulus flowers and shells
being the newest patterns. Continental
sashes in red, white and blue ribbons with
fringed ends are also sold for children

At the last annual meeting of the
American Pharmaceutical Association,
particular attention was called 20 the
wholesale adulteration of essential oils, a
pure article being the exception. Oil of
turpentine appears to be the favorite adul-

the genuine essential Oil being added to
give it the desired flavor French oil of
almonds is frequently made from peach
kernels. Wax is largely adulterated with
paraffine; but the worst specimen of wax

oil is usually adulterated with lard and
