The schools and colleges Of the future are
TO be travelling ones, moving around like cir
cuses from place to place, and giving MORN
ing and evening performances In the chief
cities of the country. We have had some
thing OF this kind already; the Hayden ex-
ploring expedition for instance; but these
have been but small affairs, side shows, no
more To compare with the great travelling
colleges OF the future than the small tent con-
tanning fat woman, den Of serpents and q
Circassian girl can be compared with the
grand circus, where all the animals OF the
world are to be seen In their native state, and
where the widest feats Of horsemanship ana
gymnastics are to be Witnessed.
The first ambulatory college TO start next
year will be the University OF Nebraska.
This will leave Red Cloud, Nebraska, July 5,
and will travel Southwest. giving perform
ances at the principal towns along the route.
A small fec will be charged for admission to
these entertainments
Senator MeDonald's travelling college Is
gotten up on much grander scale. by his
bill, now before Congress, the Secretary OF the
Navy ID ordered to furnish q good seaworthy
vessel, large enough for two hundred students.
This ID TO be converted into floating and
travelling school, and to sail to the various
ports Of the country in search of learning.
There are several other entertainments OF
This kind on hand for 1878, to the great advan-
tage and benefit of the country generally. We
have no doubt that this species of college will
soon become immensely popular. Why
should 1t not2 Then there would be no need
for fond mothers to send their sons far away
from home to college, where they will learn
to drink bad beer and smoke bad tobacco.
No; the boys can be kept at home under the
care Of their mothers, and yet get the benefit
Of a college education.
It Is evident that the plan is good one and
one that will soon become universal. We
make our Supreme Court travel through the
country for the benefit of the lawyers; we
make the milkman deliver his milk at the
door instead Of having to send around to
the dairy. Why, then, should not colleges
do the same and bring the benefits Of educa-
tion to our very door, Why, in fine, should
thousand students go to Yale because
twenty professors live there No, Moham-
med must come to the mountain.

II is estimated that the gain in the stock
of gold in the country during the fiscal
year which ended June 80. 1876, was $S,-
100000. and that of silver $22, 900, 900.
During the present fiscal year not only
has the entire product OF our gold and
silver mines remained in the country, but
it is probable that at the end OF the year
there will be a small balance OF coin in
our favor resulting from our trade with
foreign countries. The product of our
mines for the present year will be between
$50 100000 and 500, 900 900, and the
latest advices from the mining regions in
dicate that much larger percentage of
the whole amount will be on gold than
during several previous years. In view
OF these indications it is believed that the
accumulation of gold in the country at the
close of the fiscal year VIII not be less
than $50 900 900.

Governor John NJ. Thayer of Wyoming
has addressed letter to the New York
Tribune giving his views of the mineral
richness of the Black Hills. In his opn-
ion no other portion of the earth IS surface
contains more of the precious metals in
the same space. The Hills, which enclose
a space of about one hundred by sixty
miles, seem to have been upheaved as an
island in the ocean that covered the sur
rounding country, and to have brought
with them by the violence of the geoios-
ical action, an immense quantity OF min
erals. Gold, silver. copper, lead, and lron'
are indicated In quantities to astonlsh the
most experienced miners. True, silver
ores. sulphurets, chlorides, bromides, and
argentiterous galenas are found in large
quantities and of great purity, and while,
of course. the heaviest reward will result
from the use OF capital and machinery IN
the reduction of ores, it is still the poor
mans mining country. The gulches can
be worked with the shovel and sluice box
alone, and these are paying the miner
quite as well as the best portions OF Cal
ifornia 'or Montana ever did. At least
81 900, 900 worth Of gold dust was taken
