The Tuscarora Times Rerie,c says: We
saw yesterday at the Office of the company, a
specimen from the Revenue mine which, for
SIZE and beauty, surpasses anything of that
kind that we have ever seen. 1t was a piece
of quartz about fourteen by ten inches, with
layer on the surface about an inch in thick
ness, of black sulphurets and crystalized ru-
by, interspersed with bright mineral cubes,
which resembles pyrites OF iron, but which
are crystalized sulphurets, assaying nearly
fifteen hundred dollars per ton in silver.
Nature never designed a mere beautiful
specimen nor more curious combination of
the different characters of the argentiferous
ores

The long spending suit iu the English

With General Baxter, Trenor W. Park, Cen
sral Schenck, W. NJ. Stewart and others, has
at last been decided i'll favor of the plaintiffs,
who have been awarded 500, 900 damages.
This sum has been found to be due by Grant
alone. The amounts claimed to be due from
Baxter, Park and others are also being sued
for. 1t will be remembered that Baron Grant
recently went into bankruptcy with an illim
table number of debts and no assets, except
such as were heavily encountered; so the tri.
umph of the Emma Company may be only
victory in name.

New York. March 22-The committee OF
nine of the leading and wealthiest citizens
appointed to unite with the Cooper Union
tenement house reform movement, report
vigorous, decisive measures, some of which
are already instituted, to carry the reform
into effect, Among the undertakings already
begun is the organization Of stock companies
for the erection of improved dwellings on a
strictly commercial basis and the creation of
a trust fund for the construction and main
tenance of such dwellings. Dividends are
limited to five per cent. There will be no
clerical officials beyond small working force
Much encouragement is felt from the course
the movement is taking and the interest en-
listed that practical reform of the tenement
hunse system will be accomplished at last.

The INCREASE OF WEALTH IN ENGLAND
Although it is said that the wealth of Great
Britain, as indicated in taxable income, has
fallen off in the last two years, the increase
for period of twelve years, the Brooklyn
Eagle alleges, is something remarkable This
is seen in comparison of recently published
parliamentary returns of theivalues assessed
to the income-tax for 1857 with that of
1864-5. The increase from all sources is from
ESQ, $50, 729 to e49O, sA, SO6, and it is most
marked in the assessments on employments
and industrial establishments and appliances
AT the same time there has been consider
able extension of exemptions and abatemeats.
so that the increase of actual income must be
greater than that of the assess
ments, which is nearly fifty per cent, in
twelve years

COMPOUND QUARTZ M1LL-The Silver State
OF the 21st says: cd. H. Anderson, prac-
tical millwright, and formerly resident of
this county, has invented a compound quartz
mill, for which patent was issued on the 4tb
instant. The invention relates to an i'm.
proved mill for crushing ores. 1t is run by
soggle joint engine levers, in connection with
the stamps instead of cams. 1t IS made to
run by steam, water, horse or hand power,
with ono, two or five stamps, as desired 1t
is claimed that the stamps will crush from
three to ten times as much ore as an ordinary
stamp of the same diameter of shoe and die,
with one-fourth of the power required to run
stamps and tappets The mill is of simple
construction, and is so constructed that any
piece of it can be packed on animals over the
toughest country, and is made entirely of
iror, steel and brass of the best quality, re-
quiring no lunber except for battery blocks
and foundation. Full particulars of the mill
can be obtained upon application to d. H. |
whose address at present, is Russ |

full speech for delivery in the Senate at some
fitting opportunity during the present session,
to eastern criticisms on his advocacy of the
anti-Chinese bill. He will support the position
taken by him in the debates on that measure
and in his letter to William Lloyd Carlson by
an overwhelming array of arguments, based
on facts, presidents and authorities, many
of which will be found surprisingly fresh,
even by Pacific coast readers, and which there
is reason to hope will have most beneficial
effect in further enlightening eastern senti-
ment, for Blaine's utterances are sure to at
tract attention all over the country, and he
intends this time alike to challenge refutation
and to guard himself at every point against
the possibility of successful rejoinder.

and the like Goodness knows whether
there was any truth in such storiesF
Perhaps it pleased his rivals to invest
the drudgery that was their daily lot with
this halo of romance. For my part my
tastes are sensational. and do what | can

but, on the other hand. my strong COM
mon sense declares for moderation as re-
CARDS Mr.. Riddel and the ladies of rank !;
therefore, draw the line at duchesses.
But he certainly was as fascinating as he
was hard-harted. When any lady customer
who was unknown to him got out of her
brougham-for no one ever came in cab
to Messrs. Moonstone's establishment
and moved up the shop in his direction,
he would look at her through his half shut
eyes-for they were of the dreamy or
der of beauty-and murmur to himself,
snow, is this a swindle or a bona fide
party?"
And many bona fide party did he serve
with much external politeness who little
dreamed of the suspicion which she excit-
within him.
He thought it bad sign when they took
off their gloves, and under such circum-
stances would always decline to show
them those specimens of rough diamonds
which wet finger can carry with it. And
when they offered to pay for them little
purchases by check, it was quite pretty to
hear him explain, in his soft voice, how
the system of the firm was a ready
money one. and that no exception could
be made in favor of any one, however
connected. who was not personally known
to it.
You might have thought, perhaps, that
the entertainment of such suspicious. not
to mention the .'evil communications"
(when they turned out to be well founded)
to which he was necessarily exposed,
would have correpted his own integrity;
but this was not the case; his employers
intrusted him quite literally with untold
gold. and he was the last man to have
abused their confidence.
And yet, as have said. he was not pop
ular. Indeed, the story which am about
to relate concerning him, and which is
certainly of character to arouse sympa-
thy and compassion, was told me by his
fellow-clerk, Mr.. Nation, (who had given
me his own ace-ofspades adventure in
very different style) with great deal Of
waggishness and enjoyment.
