DIERY- THEIR RATES OF REGENERATION.
LBY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD
ALBANY, August 2, 1877.
Reports reached here tonight to the effect that
dissatisfaction was expressed among militiamen IN
New York az the amount Of pay declared due in Adu
tant General rownends circular issued directly alter
the disarmament OF the troops, and that number Of
prominent officers Of the First and Second dvi-
sions were coming to Albany to propose
q readjustment. No such officers have arrived
here tonight, but took pains General Town
send In relation to the matter aud hc says that hc has
heard nothing OF any discomfort aud can not sec how
there could be any. Tho Governor and he wore
equally we'll pleased with tho magnificent behavior
Of tho troops and felt that ST. 600 900 damage
moro was saved tho State by the prompt
ness OF their obedsnoe to tho call and
soIdiery conduct during the continuance Of
the troubles Thcy were therefore impressed
with tho justice Of paying them the iuil amount the
law would allow, and in this thcrc were two
statutes that somewhat cophicted One gave the pri.
vac soldier the pay and allowances OF volunteer OF
the United States service during actual scrvice,
which Is on tho average Sl4 month, while
another permitted the State In times of dis.
turoancc to mako adequate compensation
for services in tho field. Under the latter
statute the Adjutant General upon conference with
WV wv oiuoi hAcu eno pay ~ 81 u u"y' w F"! W
high officers was somewhat reduced from the standard
which would have boon allowed under tho stction
equalizng the pay with that Of United States troops
Besides these measures for full recognition
OF The Services Of the militia, tho Gov
ernor directed tho Comptrollor 10 provide means
for their immediate pay ment although there could be
no Appropriation ready for such an unexpected omer
gency. Both the Governor ana Comptroller arc great
stickcrs for appropriations before payment, hut in
this emergency they discovered tnnt The statute or con
stitutonat provision of the State provided that
in cases OF insurr.ction means for it's suppress.
sion could DO secured by borrowing, and the
Comptroller although not having 10 borrow tho
money will have means baud TO pay promptly all
ciaiins Tor service growing out oil the strike. The
Adjutant Gcnernl thought ~ hardly possible that any
committee OF prominent officers Of the milita could
intend calling upon him make readjustment as
reported but said he would them II they camo and
very readily hear their proposition.

ATLANTA, I. T., March /, 1877.
Ed. WoRLD:- Owing to great pres
sure of business during the past few
weeks, | have neglected to write or
keep the many readers of the WORLD
posted on matters pertaining to the
past, present and future of the great
Atlanta mine.
The Buffalo Company is extracting
large quantities of shipping and mill
ing ores, and the mine never looked SO
we'll since the discovery. There is
not less than million dollars in sight,
providing the requisite machinery to
reduce and work the ore was erected
and in working condition. This little
company of go-ahead men are doing a
great deal to advance the future Of
our camp, and also accumulate great
wealth for themselves. They have
paid up all of their indebtedness, and
to-day, | understand, do not owe a
quarter of dollar to any man in Ida
no outside of the men employed in the
mine, and they could have their money
If they desired it; and in addition to
this they have made raise of 100000
to improve and add ten stamps to their
new mill, together with new furnace
to work the ore on an extensive scale
Mr.. Einsfeldt, the Superintendent, was
down town, a few days ago. Ht
is very we'll pleased with the pres
ent situation and appearance of tn
mine and mill, and says he will maxi
things lively in Atlanta before the eS
piration of another year.

THE CLOUDS OF LIFE.

There is many noble deed
Would blossom into light
And scatter forth its seed
From morning until night,
Did not the tempter feed
The wrong and crush the right,
By sending forth arrayed
The darkened clouds of life.
How oft the heart would lend
A helping hand to those
Who need the aid of friend
To save them from their foes,
Were it not for those dark clouds,
Which hang DER many head
And crush the good intent,
Until it is quite dead.
Many there are who would cheer
And Tighten the sorrows of men
Who have failed in their earthly career
To attain the desirable end,
If that damper which constantly hangs
In the shape of cloud over head,
Would sore to more distant lands
And let their design go ahead.
There is actions that would win
In this great world fame,
That would serve to lesson sin
And trample down its name,
Were not the good intentions killed
And crushed to earth again
By those tormenting clouds of life
That do not seem to wane.
It is said that every cloud
i Is lined with silver bright,
And that in future time
Twill burst forth into light.
Such really may be so,
| should not doubt its truth,
Although 1 think, and almost know,
That of the reverse there's proof

ANTIQUITY OF THE WoRLD.-At the
first annual session of the Liverpool
Geological Society, which occurred in
October, the retiring President, MIR.
F. Willard Reade, read paper treat
ing of the yearly amount of solid mat
ter removed from the surface of Eng.
land and Wales, by rain, or rather
river-water. BY elaborate calcula-
tions the writer estimated that 1t
would require $4,000 years to remove
one foot from the whole surface IN the
way indicated. The calculations were
compared with others showing the
denudation of the great river-basins OF
Europe. viz: the Rhine, Rhone and
Danube. From these estimates Mr..
Reade deduced the conclusion that the
minimum amount of time which has
ELAPSED since the first sedimentary
rocks were deposited is, in round num-
bers, 5OO,OOO,OO0 of years. This con
clusion harmonizes with the views o
Lyell. Hutton and others, as to the
great age of the world.

BOISE CRY, March 5, 1877.

Mr.. FREEMAN, in writing to his pa
per at Ogden, says that Idaho City has
but four stores and a population OF
but a few hundred, three-fourths of
which is Chinese. The white popuIa-
ton of our town is about 1000, which
fact Mr.. Freeman could have easily
ascertained had he taken the pains to
ask some of our citizens. The four
merchants undoubtedly were all that
subscribed for his paper when he built
the P. D. & S. P Railroad up to Quartz
burg and Hogem a few weeks ago
Such misrepresentation were prob
ably suggested by the fact that the
people of the Basin did not take any
interest in his air line propelled By
gas. They want something more sub
stantial.
