WHITE PINE.

Our valuable exchange, the Mining
and Engineering Journal, closes an
able and exhaustive article on White
Pine with tho following words:
The last three years Of the history of
Treasure Hill mining have presented
NO features Of great importance. Oc-
casionally new bodies OF ore have been
found, and the annual bullion yield
has ranged between five and six hun
dred thousand. On the Eberhsrdt &
Aurora prospecting has been coDtin-
nous, and the results moderately salts
factory. The entire camp has, however,
been waiting for news from the tunnel,
IL being clearly evident that unless q
continuation Of the great ore channel
found on the surface appeared below
the future of White Pine was dark, aud
that operations must wholly cease in q
few years. The recent strike In, there
fore, Of immense moment to the dis
trict. II drifts disclose ore in abund-
anoe or even in moderate quantities,
Hamilton will take Q new lease OF life
and become something moro than the
shadow Of its former self.
About 49,O00,O 900 in silver bullion
represents the production Of the Treas
ure Hill mines since their discovery
MP to the close Of 1876. 1t is difficult
TO believe that Q formation which has
produced 10 enormously from the
very limited portion Of it worked, can
Be barren 1t every other point in its
course.

the Daily Stock Exchange prints the
following in its second edition this
evening: 1t il rumored to-day in stock
circles that an important suit Is about
to be begun against the Justice Mining
Company, by the Woodvil!o Mining
Company, to recover the sum OF
$4,000, 900, the value of ore extracted by
the former company from ground al
legged to be the property of the latter.
The suit Is based upon q claim thatthe
purchase made some time x by the
Justice of a controlling interest in the
Woodvilie Consolidated, did not give
the former any title to ground then in
dispute, for the ground was not the
property of the Woodville Company,

company claim to own the ground,
and it is said by the knowing ones that
their claim Is valid, and that the sale of

Mamma has often told me about it-how
she was in the third story of a burning
house, and when the strongest men drew
back, this aunt, then an invalid, ran
through the flames with wet blankets,
and dragged her out of horrible doom.
She was fearfully burned, and sick for
years afterward from the effects of her
exertions; and mamma thinks all the
world of Aunt Eunice. So do 1. By the
way, it was mean of us to make fun OF
that old lady. What possessed uss"
III couldn't help it," said Anne, laugh
ing, though knew it was wrong"
And the young friends made their
adieus, and parted.
HAS she come, mammal" cried Cor
inne, flushed and breathless from her rapid
walking.
Eyes, DEAR" said her mother, smiling,
''but she was so tired l persuaded her to
lie down, so you won't see her until din
ner. time"
Dinner time came, and with it Aunt
Eunice, little, brisk old lady in satin
dress, with wart on the bridge OF her
nose. No wonder Corinne turned pale
and sick at heart as her mother introduced
her, with a loving smile. Not but she
understood that low and gentle "Never
mind, my DEAR" which reached her ears
alone, as the old lady kissed her and
pressed her hand.
Never before had she felt so humili-
ated; and now that Aunt Eunice had
cleared away all traces Of the dust and
fatigue of the journey, she saw how
noble and sweet was the face, spite Of
the disfguring wart, and how really
grand was the spirit that illumined it,
that led her to say, in manner at least,
that all was forgiven and would be for
gotten.
Corinne had never failed, from that day
to this, to treat old age with respect, no
matter whether she meets it clad in pur-
pie and fine linen or in the garb of pow
erty and misery. One lesson was enough
for a lifetime; one recognition of the
beauty of Christian forbearance under
great provocation sufficed.-Youth's CON-
pdni0n.

Take Back Thy Gifts.

Take back thy gifts-I crave not one
To keep for memory's sake;
l would not have the sight of them
One fond regret awake.
A withered rose-ah once so fair,
Faded and worthless now;
Fit emblem of our sweet, dead past,
And every broken VOW.
One tiny curl, from off thy brow,
Held with knot of blue;
"Bathis a token" then you said,
any love for thee is true"
Take back thy ring-a lovely pearl
OF rarest purity;
IAN emblem Of your love-" you said,
Through all eternity"
cannot say, take back thy love,
I'm sure twas never mine,
Would not heart that's truly given,
More constant prove than thine?
And thus we part-I will not say
1t causes me no pain;
A brightness from my life has gone,
That meier will come again.

OPPOSED TO TORPEDOEs.-SOme Of the
public men of England, including naval
officers, are trying to get the torpedo
banished from warfare. The reason given
is that torpedoes are SO sudden and Sc
cret in their action that there 10 no de-
fence against them, and that they should
be classed with explosive balls and pois-
ons, which are prohibited in civilized
warfare.
A whole feet can be destroyed with q
few fish torpedoes directed among the
ships from q distance. The destruction
which these terrible engines occasion is
SO sudden, so Wholesale, that the fear OF
them unnerves the brsvest sesmen. No
wonder, then, that humane men want the
civilized nations to declare against their
use. But, after all, II We must have war,

A Serious Blunder.

Here is an amusing comedy of errors
with Partisan edge: Nine. de V. was
very jealous, and determined to watch
her husband. One day he told her he
was going to Versailles. and when he
went out she put on her bonnet and fol-
lowed him. She kept him in sight until
he turned into passage which shortened
the way to the railway station, where she
missed him. She stood for a few min
utes in the passage looking about, and
suddenly saw man coming out of
glove-shop with a. rather overdressed
lady. From the distance she made sure
the man WIS her husband, and without
word of warning she gave him three or
four sounding boxes on the ear. When
the gentleman turned around to confront
his assailant, she perceived that she ha d
made a mistake, and at the same moment
she caught sight of her husband, who
had replenished his cigar case at tobac-
conist's, and was crossing the street.
What could she doi 1t goes without say
ing that she tainted in the arms of the
stranger whose ears she had boxed, while
the other lady ran off as fast as she could
to avoid scandal. The stranger, who
was a comedian, was astonished to find
an unknown lady in his arms; and while
his ears were still tingling from her
blows, he was again startled. A gentle
man collared him, and shaking him
roughly asked him what he meant by
embracing a lady in the street. "Why,
she boxed my ears and faintedr ~ screamed
the actor. "She is my wife," shouted
the irate husband, "and would never have
struck you without cause!' The infuri-
ated gentlemen shook their fists until the
lady, who had been carried into a shop,
recovered sufficiently to explain how 1t
had happened.

THE WHITE MoUNTAINs.-The grow
ing tendency to visit the White Mount
aims has led to the construction of a
railroad line quite to their base. This
has been supplemented by a novel ar
rangement for making the ascent to the
summit. By this speedy and comfort
able means one avoids the slow and
primitive method of being carried up on
the back OF horse.
The Boston, Concord and Montreal
Railroad makes immediate connections
with this mountain line, as it does with
the various lines from Boston and New
York. It traverses romantic country,
and affords the tourist the most delightful
views of meadows, of woodlands, of
mountains, of rivers, and of lakes. 1t
passes through many pleasant villages,
and presents that charming diversity of
scenery which is constant source of
pleasure to the traveller.
1t is an admirably equipped and we'll
operated line. The various new devices
tending to promote the comfort of pas
sengers have been adopted, and the man.
agement is marked for that enterprise
which is contributing to its popularity as
direct and agreeable route for reaching
the White Mountains and the many
picturesque scenes of northern New
Hampshire, Vermont and Canada.

A CHURCH INcIDENT.-The Boston
TraUeler narrates the following: IAN Es-
sex county clergyman preached rousing
temperance discourse last Sunday, in
which he spoke in strong terms Of the
evils of the liquor traffic, not forgetting
the sales in places that have pretense to
respectability. As he made one strong
point after another, bis hearers were
touched and expressed their satisfaction
by applause. Finally, - he reached his
climax, an excited nearer rose to his feet,
and forgetting the day aud the place,
shouted-'Now, then, three cheers for
the minister The dead silence that fol-
lowed brought the man to his senses, and
he wiltsd into his seat"
