Examination of u Gold Mine.

Attached to the Southern Express
South on the P. w. & b. r.. r., was a
special car. This car contained a num-
ber OF the most prominent bankers and
brokers of New York and Philadelphia,
who were on their way to examine a
gold mine in North Carolina, known as
the "kings Mountain Nine" he bank
ers wen the invi alon of Ex Gov.
A. G.. Curtin, of Pennsylvania, who is
President of the mining, company. There
was also - board several of the largest
STOCKHOLDERS, and directors. Mr.. Elliott,
of the firm of Elliott, johnson 4 Co.,
bankers of this city, at the earnest solici-
tation, of the President of the Company,
also accompanied the expedition. The
mine alluded to has been opened about
thirty years, and has during that time
been paying exceedingly well. Several
of our citizens have declared their inten-
ton of purchasing stock in the mine, if
1t turns out to be what it is represented,
and Mr.. Elliott, went for the purpose, of
making an examination of the mine and
making report to the citizens interes-
ted. The expedition will be gone three or
four days.

A SCIENTIFIC TRIUMPH.-A letter
from Thurlow Weed to the editor of the
New York Tribune states that the late
Professor Henry was once on the point of
choosing the stage as profession. While
he was an apprentice to asilversmith in
Albany, n. Y, soon after the last war
with England, he became member of an
amateur theatrical company in that city,
where his presentations of Norval, Damon
and even Hamlet, were so admirable that
his friends, charmed with his talents, ur-
ged him to adopt dramatic career. He
was offered by the manager of theatre
a permanent engagement with a liberal
salary. The young aspirant for dramatic
honors was greatly delighted with the
prospect, but judicious friends prevailed
| npon him to be educated in the ALBANY
Academy. He soon became so absorbed
with his studies that the theatre, with all
its attractive associations, was forgotten
Mr.. Weed says that long years afterward
when he met with Mr.. Henry in Wash.
ington, or on his visits to Albany, while
recalling the scenes of their youth, the
the grave professor, with worldwide
scientific reputation, remembered thi,
episode in his life as partaking more of ,
dream than reality.

Our Breadstufr, Market.

The late foreign advices are most dis
couraging for holders of breadstufis, and
have had very depressing effect upon
our markets. Flour has declined in the
last two days rs cents per barrel; rye 2
cents; corn cents, and oats to cents,
which shows conclusively that our English
mercantile friends have faith in peace ad-
vices. But the telegraph news is ofa very
beligerent character. Some idea of the
trade between Great Britain and Ireland
in food staples with Philadelphia may be
inferred from the fact that we have ship
ped to those countries since the 1st of Sep
tember so, $50 barrels of flour, 800 barrels
of corn meal, LOIS, ,294 bushels of wheat,
Il, ,461, 1881 bushels of corn and IL, 139, ,797
gallons Of petroleum.
