Important Discovery.

On the 7th of November last Messrs.
Heagy & Stoddard, OF Hampton, leased
two hundred and forty acres of land of
Mr.. j. B. Cox for their company, the
Hampton Coal Mining Go. They COM
meDced work at once to prospect for coal,
and, in com aDy with Mr.. John Devinney
who adjoins Mr.. Cox's land put test hole
down on Mr.. Cox's land. Mr.. George w.
Cook was employed to do the prospecting,
and at depth of ninety-two feet went
through the coal, the thickness being FIVE
feet eight inches. This is the largest vein
yet discovered and proves that the body
Of the coal is situated on the bluff, and
that the mines in Happy Hollow are on
the outcrop, as we'll as those of Rapids
City on the other side.
The Hampton Coal Company are now
putting down second hole On Mr.. Cox &
land and will, when satisfied Of the lowest
place, put down a new shaft on the new
coal field. This, in connection with their
other coal lands, will give them one of the
largest fields of coal in northern Illinois.
The company are now mining from thirty
to thirty-fve cars of coal daily, and find q
ready market for all of it. They now en-
ploy about two hundred men and in their
new works will need another hundred,

General Henderson Votes to Demons-
tize Silver.

THE ARGUS desires the people Of this
district to understand how their member
of congress. T. j. Henderson voted when
the question of prohibiting the national
banks from demonetizing silver came up
in the house on Monday the 9th. The
question came up on the bill offered by
Mr.. Ford of this state which bill proposed
to punish with forfeiture of charter any
national bank refusing to receive standard
silver dollars on deposit at their face value,
interchangeable with legal tender notes
and currency; also to impose q fine upon
any Cashier or Teller guilty of so doing.
The Geographic dispatches on Monday
only gave the total vote, 100, for and 90,
against not the necessary two thirds vote,
and among these 80 is the name of Gen.
ThOs. j. Henderson, showing that he is
owned by the national banking interest.
This proves the assertions made by THE
ARGUS during the last campaign.
