1t is gratifying to know, as
your correspondent does from a
large number Of letters from O.
bio soldiers, that the intention
OF many OF the veterans is to
vote for Ewing and Rice at the
coming election. The Northern
sbs6ier owes more to Gen. Rice
than to any other man who evoI
filed a seat in Congress. Ii is
only natural and proper that The
General Should receive votes
from this class Of citizens. 50
great are his deserts in this re-
epeet that even the yindictivt
and prcscriptive course of Re-
publican leaders in connec-
ton with the coming election
will fail to coercc the soldier
vote. Much of it will be fol
Ewing and. Rice.
Our National Fair is already
an assured success, not wholly
because Of what the exhibition
viii be this year, though that
will be very creditable, but be-
cause of the certainty for the
future given by the energy, taste
and liberality Of the directors of
the Association. For the exhi-
bition of this year to commence
on the 18th, it is enough to say
that it will be a credit to the
management, and well worth a
visit by citizens from all parts of
the country; but the short time
for the preparation ofthe grounds
the erection 7of buildings, and
bring this enterprise to the notice
Of the people, will prevent the
exhibition from being as extern
sive as it viii be in future years.
The directors are working with
energy not only to make the ex-
hibition a success, but to make
this surpass, next year and in all
future years, all places of the
kind in the country. And they
are now able to congratulate
themselves with an assurance
that success will crown their eff
forts. There viii be gathered
here before the end of this month
many Of the finest horses in the
country, and the grounds are
sufficiently extensive to furnish
room for the finest race course
in the country NOW nearly fin

space appropriated for the pres
ent buildings and those to be e.
rected next year. The National

of the people who reside at the

centre Of attraction for the whole
nation. ~ isae l''i

A MINING asvEsTMENT BUREAU.

A company has been organized in
New York City with a capital stock Of
$1,000 for the purpose of furnish
ing reliable information relative to gold
and silver mines. Its corporate name is
the "United States Mining and Invest
ment Company" 1t is announced
that the company will employ large
corps of engineers to examine all OF
the best mines in the Pacific States and
Territories, and establish agencies in
all the prominent mining districts.
The information obtained by the Com.
pany will be sold to regular subscribers
or others who are able and willing to
pay for it. Only dividend paying
mines will receive the, attention of the
company.
The belief is becoming general in
New York that large proportion of
the mines, the stock of which is offered
for sale in Eastern markets, are COM
paratively worthless, and not worthy
of endorsement by the newly organized
company. This, perhaps, is true; but
the new organization, if it confines its
examinations and enquiries to dividend
paying mines exclusively, will be, Eath-
er an injury than benefit to, the
owners of mines in new districts, which
have not yet reached the Dividend pay
ing stage. There are many good mines
in the State of Nevada, which are not
paying dividends in consequence of the
inability of owners to properly develop
them and erect machinery to reduce
the ores which they produce. If the
stock of such mines is offered for sale
in New York, the Mining Investment
Company can give no information,sss to
it's present or prospective value. This
will have tendency to deter people
from investing, and will result niur-
iously to the mine owAers. Ii the new
company include bullion producing
mines among those which it proposes
to examine, then it would be of benefit
to those who have valuable, mines
which only require capital to make
them dividend paying, and assist in de-
veloping the mineral resources of the
country by encouraging investments in
mining property, the owners of which
have not means to erect the machinery
necessary to make them dividend pay

HOW. Is THIs:>

Recent statistics show that. the col
cred people of Georgia are compari-
lively as prosperous as the. whites.
They own Al 900 acres Of land and, the
assessed valuation of their real and per-
aonal property is S., 1872, 39S. They are
protected in their rights and seem to be
happy and contented, yet Georgia is as
strongly Democratic as Vermont is Re-
publican. Some of those whoa assert
that negroes have no rights in the south
ern States, that white men respect,
should explain this apparent inconsist
ency as it may effect northern voters in
the Presidential campaign. 1t seems
Incredible that in one of the most ultra
Democratic States in the south, where,
ultra Republican papers assert, colpred
people are. set up as targets. for bull
dozers to shoot at, and are deprived Of
the rights and privileges of freemen,
that statistics show that they are rap
Idly accumqlating property, and have
no disposition to emigrate to Kansas or
eleswaere, but figures don't lie, while
iaots are not wanting to prove that
bloody shirt speakers and newspapers
'do sometimes.
