Evolution and Materialism.

First of all wish frankly to acknowl-
edge that am myself an evolutionist. l
NAV not agree with most that evolution
advances always cum 0quo psde. On the
contrary, believe that there have been
periods of slow and periods of rapid, al
most paroxysmal evolution. may not
agree with most that We already have in
Darwinism, the final form, and survival
of the fittest, the prime factor of evoiu-
ton. On thc contrary, believe that the
most important factors of evolution are
still unknown-that there are more and
greater factors in evolution than are
dreamed of in the Darwinisn philosophy
Nevertheless, evolution is . grand fact,
involving alike every department Of Ma
ture; and more especially evolution OF the
organic kingdom, and the origin OF sPe-
cies by derivation, must be regarded rs
an established truth Of science. But, re-
member. evolution is one thing and ma
,~rislism another and quite . different
thing. The one 10 . sure result 1T science
the other Q doubtful isference Of phiios-
ophy. Let NO enc sho 10 I'D step BY
step through the path of evolutioa, iron

Another Enoch Arden.

A correspondent from Oswego, New York, of recent date says; This place has a very romantic but entirely true story, which is the general topic of conversation. In 1863 man named Arthur O'Connor kept q hotel, known as the Gate Hill House, three miles north of Oswego. He was arrested in that year, tried and convicted for pass ing counterfeit money, and was sen fenced to two years in the Auburn State Prison. He was married and had two children. He never returned home, and his wife, believing him dead, was married in 1869 to a shoe maker named Hermann Berry. \ day or two ago O'Connor made his ap. pearance in Oswego. Berry, his wite's second husband, was absent from home. O'C0nnor obtained an inter view with the wife. She accompanied him 10 Hornellsville, where one of his children, daughter, who had grown up and married during his absence, lives Berry, coming home and find ing out the situation, went to HOrnells- vile. He found his wife, and asked her whether she would go back with hIm or intended to go with O'ConnOr. She decided to return to OswegO with Berry. O'COnnOr lett on the next train, taking with him his son, young man aged seventeen years. He is going 10 South America. He says that after be- ing released from Auburn prison he went to St. Louis. There he joined a ganC of bank robbers. They robbed an Illinois bank of $240,0O0. O'Con- nor's share of the spells was $25, ,000. With this he fed back to Cuba. He was followed, arrested, brought back and sentenced to ten years in Joliet prison. His treasure he secreted in Cuba On his release in 1876 he went directly back to Cuba and recovered his spells. With it he went to Brazil, where, he says, he has acquired wealth and position. He came to this country after his family. He had in his pos session S26,000 in cash, $l0,000 of which, it is said, he gave to hIs wife.

Golden Star Mining Company.

The subjoined letter concerning q new and important Arizona enterprise appeared in the San Francisco Stock Report. Mr. W. B. Hellings, the Sup erintendent, is an old resident of Ari- zona, and we republish his communiea- ton as it contains many items of in- terest. The perfection of the ma chinery, amount and value of ore, low rates of transportation to the mill, cheapness of fuel, &c., will all be matters of interest to our mining men. It is to be hoped that the Superin- tendent is not mistaken in his estim- ates, but even if the dividend of 9 cents per share should not be declared until the second month we imagine the company and all others interested will be well satisfied:
 CAVE GREEK, October 9, 1878.
 JOSEPH W. MORGAN, ESQ, Secretary Golden Star Mining Company, San FranciscO-Sir:-I herewith submit my report of the situation of the affairs of the company to date. The new mill was started today, and is in every sense of the word perfect success, itI running off like an old mill, there not being the slightest break or stoppage. The machinery Is simple perfect. l shall return tomorrow 10 thoroughly test everything, and on the next day commence on quartz. l have about 1900 tons of every choice ore on the dumps, and am getting out about twen- ty tons per day, being the full capacity of the mill The wagon road from the mine 10 the mill, will be con- pleted tomorrow and is in every res pect a first-claSs road. The cost of construction will approximate S30OO, but as the ore can be delivered to the mill for 50c per ton by il, l have considered it wise economy to build 1t. Have entered into 8 contract with A. E. Sorrels to deliver all the quartz the mill requires for six months at the rate of soc per ton 1 would recommend the company purchase their own team for this work. One ten mule team
  will easrly haul twenty tors per day, at a cost of 3719c per ton. l have entered into a contract for six months supply of wood at the rate of $3 per cord. 1 would also recommend the purchase their own team for hauling wood, as a considerable saving can there be made. have erected suitable buildings for office, store, ! etc, and tomorrow will the erection of building for the assay office, mems quarters, etc. By repeated and constant prospecting of the ore on the dumps, 1 am con- fiGent it will mill at least $40 per ton, and I see no reason why the company ! cannot declare q dividend of 9 cents per share on the first months run. The outlook is certainly of a most character. The mine never looked so well as now. and l am daily taking out some astOnishinglyr rich ore, of which 1 have forwarded to your office. Very respectfully yours, | etc, W. E. FEELINGS,
 Superintendent

 When we want road we will en- deavor to impress upon somebody somehow to go out and build road, put up gate, collect toll, keep the road in repair and the county out of the clutches of eminent and practical road builders.
