Our Mines Abroad.

The following is a fair example of
the favorable comments on our district
by outside journals, the annexed being
from the Alta: We have frequently
called attention to the immense pro-
duction of ores by outside mines, and
the influence that these properties will
yet exert in mining circles. The charm
the Comstock has over u operators
is still strong, but unless some impor-
tant disclosures of ore bodies are
made, this %infatuation will be dispelled.
and a removal of the interests held by
the masses to other more promising
districts will result. The Comstocks,
nevertheless, will not be entirely neg
lected, but only a heavy Withdrawal of
speculation. Perhaps the most prom.

listed upo The Boards, il the Eureka,
which, with her Richmond CONSOLE
dated and Eureka mines, is turning
out the largest amount of bullion of
any section, excepting that Of the
Comstock. The favorable develop

proposition that more dividend-paying

VIII Preserve a strict Neutrality

VIII HEcDeEvc otSaSs
1t has almost become an axiom that
it is not good policy for an outsider to
interfere In dom stic difficulties, even
when actuated by the best of motives.
Both husband and wife are apt to re-
are mutually agreed The outsider gets
much the worst of it.. A case in point
happened on Thursday evening, in n
locality not a Thousand miles from the
Courthouse, where q married couple
had entered into q discussion that
progressed from a wordy warfare to u
downright battle. A kind-hearted
passer-by put in an appearance and
attempted to separate the belligerents,
and his reward was so speedy and eff
fective that it has cured him of all am
bition as n conciiiator. He is not ex-
actly clear as to what happened. but is
confident that they joined forces and
treated him as a common enemy. lie
was willing to swear to me fact yes
terday, that it would take him a month
to recuperate, and judging from his
personal appearance we think he is
correct. He had M eve closed, three
front teeth loose, his left arm in a sling,
and bald spots over his Uranium where
tufts of hair had been pulled out by
the roots. The latter was the female
contribution to the victory. Strict
neutrality will be his policy in the fu
ture, and nothing will induce him u
deviate from that line.

A YOUNG lady from Peru has recently
arrived in London. She was discovered
in nitre mine at Iquique, and is sup
posed to be of very great antiquity. She
must have had very long and beautiful
hair and have worn it in plaits hanging
over her shoulders and down the back.
One of the plaits still bears traces of a
rude ornament. The skin of the face
is dried up, and bears marks by the
side; one knee is crossed over upon it
as though it had once been enveloped IN
cloth. The arms are laid over the other.
The eyes are staring wide open; the
tongue clings to the roof of the mouth,
and her body is covered with crystals
that shine like mica scales. Her age
was about Il years when she fell into
the mine and died; and that melancholy
event may have occurred hundreds of
years ago; for she is now nothing but a
mummy.

WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT.
Account Of His Baptism
at Naples.
New York Evening Post.


In seconding the resolutions which
were adopted by the Massachusetts
historical society on the occasion Of
Mr.. Bryant's death, the Rev. Robert c..
Waterson paid an eloquent tribute to
the genius and character of the poet,
recounting many incidents which had
occurred during the speakers long
intimacy with Mr.. Bryant. The adj
dress, together with an appendix, is
now published in pamphlet form, en-
titled "Tribute to William Cullen
Bryant" Mr. Waterson has recounted
many incidents, small in themselves,
but worthy in theii significance as illus
trations of Mr.. Bryant's character and
habits. He enjoyed Mr. Bryants
friendship and was with him frequently
at Cummington and Roslyn, and in
Europe. Among the interesting mat
tiers in the address is the account Of
Mr.. Bryant's baptism, Of which we be-
ieve the public have never before
heard. It was at Naples, and Mr..
Waterson says:
Anxiously watching as he had been
doing, in that twilight boundary be-
tween this world and another, over one
more precious to him than life itself,
the divine truths and promises had
come home to his mind with new
force. He stated that he had never
united himself with the church, which,
with his present feelings, he would most
gladly do. He then asked if it would
be agreeable to me to come to his
room on the morrow and administer
the communion, adding that, as he had
not been baptized, he desired that ordi-
nance at the same time. The follow
ing day was the Sabbath, and most
heavenly day. In the fulfillment of
his wishes, in his own quiet room,
company of seven persons celebrated
the Lords supper. With hymns, Sc
lections from the Scripture and de-
votional exercises, we went back in
thought to the large upper ROOM
where Christ first instituted the holy
supper in the midst of his disciples.
Previous to the breaking of the bread
William Cullen Bryant was baptized.
With snowwhite head and flowing
beard, he stood like one of the ancient
prophets, and perhaps never since tne
age of the apostles has a truer disciple
professed allegiance to- the Divine.

ArizOna's Arabian Nights Scenery.
San Francisco Bulletin.

Notwithstanding the entire absence
of timber or verdure of any kind upon
the mountains along the Colorado river,
they are ever changing objects of beauty
and interest, and the longer and more
studiously you gaze upon them the
more completely you are lost in admira-
ton of them. In the evening, in the
interval Just before and Immediately
after the decline of the great orb of day,
these earth-giants point up their ragged
edges and grotesquc columns against a
canopy that is marvel Of celestial
coloring. At this time of the year no
clouds sail majestically over the noun
tain tops. From sunrise until within an
hour of sunset the imperial dome seems
like great sapphire suspended over
the world. Then the eastern noun
tains and the horizon above assume
most exquisite tint of something be-
tween purple and maroon, while the
elevations on the west and horizon
above color up in lilac and gold. A few
moments after sunset the whole hea-
vens and mountains upon either side
assume a lavender hue. So perfect and
so delicate are the tracings of these
mountain outlines against the sky at
this period of the evening that the en-
tranced vision follows them as readily
as if they were just so many artistic
pencilings upon map or parchment.
Yet all this pales in comparison with
the mirage on clear morning, which
cuts up these same mountains into
castles, cathedrals, fortresses, espla-
nades, gardens, forests and every other
imaginable thing, or topples them over,
or suspends them in the air at will.
One can watch the beautiful effects of
mirage in this country with more de-
lightful avidity than an other one thing
that can be presented. s+1

TEXAS papers say that stage-robbery
in some parts of that state is becoming
so common as to be monotonous. The
same old play is enacted again and
again. The robbers rush upon the stage,
the horses stop, the passengers pile out
under order and hand over watches,
iewelry, pistols and money with great
promptness, the mail-bags are cut open
and the contents taken out, and then
the stage and passengers. considerably
lightened OF their loads, are allowed to
proceed.
