Discovery of a Salt Mine.

The New York Herald of the 18th In- stant has the following: A remarkable discovery of pure rock-salt has just been made in this State, near the little village of Wyoming, forty miles west of Roches- ter, on the Rochester and State Line Rail- way. On Tuesday, last week, laborer, employed by Mir. Everst, was sinking an oil well near the village, when at a depth of 1900 feet the drill struck stratum of rOck-salt which proved to be 100 feet thick. The full extent of the mine is not known, but it is supposed to cover large terri tory, and that the salt marshes of Syracuse drain the bed. 4 document signed by the justice of the peace, the postmaster, and several merchants of the village, has been sent 10 this city, fully verifying the discov- cry The salt has been examined by a scientific gentleman, and he says that it is the best rock-salt Those familiar with salt say that this salt just discovered is pure enough to be shipped to market d. rectly from the mine without receiving chemical publication.
 Considerable excitement is the result, and it is said that if the bed proves of wide extent, it will revolntionize the salt trade of the country, and destroy the eyaporat- ing industries of the great salt monopo hes which have long received exorbitant government protection. There are but few extensive mines of pure salt in the world. There is one in Valencia, one in Poland, and one in Armenia, near Mount Ararat.
 And there are several in ArizO- na which are yet to become known and to rank with those of Europe. LEAD has shown very quick and quite unexpected turn in price. On Monday 300 tons were sold at 3-15c., after which the market steadily advanced, with small sales, up to 315c., closing at 3115@33Sc., with some parties asking 4c It has been known that there are about 5000 tons of lead in and about New York, and with thls knowledge buyers felt quite secure in the low prices that were ruling, and were anticipating that they would go still lower. But sud denly the holders of lead either practical ly withdrew from the market or asked considerable advance, and at the close We find them firm in the same position, It was also discovered that there was but little lead in the country outside of our market. the St. Louis market being quite bare. In a money market so exceedingly easy as we now have, it may not be diff. cult to hold prices where they are or even advance them, but the market must at periods drop to price that will permit us to export our surplus production. The English market, however, has advanced during the past week 5s.@10s per ton, and 1t is well-known fact that many of the foreign mines find it more difficult to con- tend with the low prices that have prevail ed than do most of the Missouri mines With peace in Europe, larger demand for lead will probably be brought, for al- though much lead is consumed in times of war in bullets, yet much larger amount is consumed in times of peace ill the arts M. & E.

A SERIOUS BUSINESS. s.-Girls talk all alike
about marriage, as though it was jubilee,
gladstone thing, rose without a thorn, and
so it is, if all is right, if they go about it as
rational tbeings, instead of merry-making
children. 1t is a serious thing to marry. 1t
is a life business. Therefore never do it in
haste; never run away to get married;
never marry for wealth or standing, or fine
person or manners, but for BOTH for the
qualities Of the mind and heart, which make
an honorable man. Take time, think long
and well before you accept any proposal;
consult your parents, then some judicious
friend, then your own judgment. Learn all
that is possible for you to learn of your
proposed husband. When all doubts have
been removed, and not till then, accept
