The Lady Who Discarded Wash.
ingtOn's Suit.


The elder sister of Miss Mary Cary
had married George William Fair
fax, at whose house she was on visit
when she captivated a young man
who paid her his addresses, His af-
lection, however, was not returned.
and the offer of his hand was reject
ed by Miss Cary. This Young man
was afterward known to the world
as General George Washington. the
first President of the United States
of America. Young Washington
asked permission of o,d Mr., Carey
to address his daughter before he
ventured to speak to herself. The
reply of the old gentleman was; " If
that is your business here. sir. l
wish you to leave the house. for nv
daughter has been accustomed to
ride in her own COACH" 1t has SUBJ
sequently been said that the answer
of Mr.. Cary to the STRIPPING Wash
ington produced the independence
of the United States, and laid the
foundation of the future fame of the
first of heroes and the best of men

INSPECTING If anything more
is necessary to prove that the system
of mining as carried on in this coun-
try is superior to that of any other,
or that our machinery is nearer per
feet than any other engaged in min
ing in the world, it is the fact that
from all parts men engaged in that
pursuit come to inspect and learn
from us. On Wednesday evening
there departed on the passenger
train for the East two gentlemen
Major Jones and Mr.. Jas. A. Coul-
lard, representatives of a large east
ern company, embracing such men
as Jay Gould, etc. These gentle
men arrived from Central America
short time ago, on the steamer
Montana. In the state of san Saliva
dor. in that country, the company
referred to have one of the richest
silver mines in the world. The
ledge is not very large, but a thor
ough exploration or examination
could not be completed on account
of the water driving them out. They
brought with them from this mine
one ton of ore, which worked over
$4,000. These gentlemen, upon ar
irving at San Francisco, received a
carte blanche from the Bonanza firm
to fully inspect the mills, mines and
works belonging to them. During
their brief stay they visited the prin
cipal mines the California, Con.
Virginia, Belcher, Crown Point. etc.
to better determine tho most suit
able machinery to erect upon their
mine. Specimens which we have
from them are wonderfully rich
They say the Virginia bonanza is
very large, but theirs, while much
smaller, is also much richer. But
for systematic exploration, for exten
sive, heavy and almost perfect ma
chinery, the Comstock is ahead o
the WO ld,

mine, predicted that it would soor
furidsh the fuel of the entire Com
stock.
The St. Patrick Gold Mining Com
pany have declared dividend ol
thirty cents per share, amounting tC
| $4,000, payable on the 18th. This is
a California claim, which has cost
stockholders $150,000 in assessments
and this is the first dividend.
Ore brought from Central Distric,
by parties has been worked at the
Humboldt Reduction Works, giving
entire satisfaction. We learn that a
large quantity of the same class OF
ore is in sight, and will no doubt be
source of large profit. The frs,
class assayed $79l 72; second class,
$182 13, at which figures they were
paid by the Humboldt Mill and Min
ing Company.
General Merrill, of Sheridan's head
quarters in Chicago. has just returned
from a tour of observation in the
Black Hills region. He states that
there does not appear to be enough
gold in the Hills to support half of
those already there; provisions are
high, there not being enough on hand
to last till June, and starvation stares
hundreds in the face. The procure
ment of the Black Hills emigration
he regards as an infamous traffic and
IA swindle, beneficial alone to trans
portation companies.

Looking back now at the proceedings in the

and any considerable change from other can
didates to either was
SURE TO TURN THE SCALE.
The feeling had become so intense that a CONS
promise was regarded by many as essential
to the harmony If not the exist
ence of the party. To effect thi-
result the energies OF Fx-Gov. Edward +
Noy es chairman of the OHIO delegation, a
leader OF great elCquence and magnetic
power, were ssut. Michig IN, through the
venerable William A. Howard led off with the
solid vote of Michigan for Hayes, This was
greeted with tremendous applause. There
were other changes in the same di-
rectoD, but Ii was net until the
seventh ball,t that Kentucky, Indiana, New
York and Massachusetts rescued n common
underst nding and withdrew their iavorite
candidates in the interest, as Gov. Woudford

Pennsylvania could have been con-
trol'ed for Blaine, the issue might
have been dffeIenf. There was una l.
