A BIASED ARTICLE.

An exceedingly meritorious article
written by r. L. Ooinon, the mining
reporter. sppsaFsd in tho Virginia
Chronicle Of last Monday. The
writer reviews the progress made in
mining on The Comstock from the
two-map- power yindlass Of 1859 to
the ponderous 8,500-horse-power en-
gines aud other machinery, costing
millions Of dollars, nov being put
over the new line of deep east shafts,
and shows the utter groundlessness
of the fears 70 often expressed by
the ignorant. or the interested, that
mining on the Comstock has seen Its
best days. He concludes a. follows:
The men who are putting their
money into the Comstock, and per-
sonaliy supervising the vast works
mentioned above, have for years been
ia position to judge Of the prospec-
tive value Of the lode, and the fact
that they are more hopeful now than
ever before ought to be q valuable
assurance TO the general public that
more extensive mining is yet to be
done than any heretofore undertaken.
The article is deficient 10 only one
particular, to.wit: It does not even
mention the fact that q very extensive
portion pf the Comstock mineral belt.
comprised between the Caledonia and
the Alta, at one end, aud the Florida
and Daney mines at the other, is al
most entirely uoexplored. IN the
section of country just referred to
are the Silver Hill, st. Louis, Silver
City, Dayton, Kossuth, Cherokee,
South End, Baltimore, American Flat,
and many other properties which
have either yielded large quantities
Of rich ore already, or in which the
indications OF the presence OF ore
bodies are unmistakable. No article
treating Of mining ON the Comstock
as . whole Is complete unless the
ground referred to above is included
in its purview. ~

Carpeting . River.

New Orleans IL now carpeting its
river front-not with Brussels, OF
course, but with good, substantial
mats of cane. The mat IL composed
of Q hundred or more bundles OF
cane securely bound in wire, and 30
attached to one smother as to form .
carpet Q foot and one-half thick,
twenty-five feet wide and two hum
dred feet long. To the upper sur
face of such Q mat are attached by
wires cylinders of canvas filed with
sand. These latter are the weights
to hold the mats upon the bottom OF
tho river. Along the river front, at
the waters edge, are driven piles
one foot square, Any feet long and
six feet apart. These are imbedded
perhaps thirty feet in the soil, and
are the moorinR posts for the mats.
Around every post IL an iron ring.
which ring is also fastened to the
shore end, or twenty-five foot side
of the mat. The mat, which IL made
by machinery, when finished lies
upon the deck of . barge, 20 that
when the barge IL moved directly
out into the river Q steam tug fur.
nishes the motive power, the mat
rolls off the stern and sinks evenly
and solidly to the bottom Of the
river. In this manner 1t IL expeo-
ted that fully 5000 yards by 200 feet
Of the river front will be covered
and projected. During the last six
weeks % mats have been made and
put upon the bottom OF the river.
The idea is to keep the Mississippi
within bounds and to protect the
shore from washing hither and thith.
or a. the caprice Of the river may
dictate. T 2

There il considerable variation in
the different European states in the
age at which legal marriage can be
contracted.
In Austria the age of discretion is
fourteen years. In Hungary each re-
ligious sect makes its own regulations
marriages being regarded as entire
~ ecclesiastical affairs.
Russians can contract marriages at
the age Of eighteen 10 cases Of fe-
males. Tho Italian law fixes the age
at eighteen and fifteen respectively.
In Turkey there is no general law.
The French and Belgian codes allow
marriages Of young men at eighteen
and girls at fifteen years, but the
powers of dispensntion in special
cases are reserved. In Greece, Spain
and Portugal, parties of fourteen and
twelve can contract binding mar
rage, but in the latter country the
consent of the parents is necessary.
According to the amended para
graph of the Civil Marriage Bill, the
state of wedlock cannot be entered
upon under twenty and sixteen years
respectively, though the existing laws
of Prussia and SaxoDy permitted
marriages at earlier periods.
There is much dissimilarity in the
Swiss laws, every canton having a
regulation of its own. In some Of
them the consent Of the parents Is
necessary up to twenty-five years.
The influence Of climate upon the
temperament and constitution is al
lowed Ia the southern nations, where
maturity is reached at a much earlier
period than among the northern ma
tons. J g ssss H,A's As.'3

Artificial Lakes On the Rio Grande,

All the country that lies along the
upper waters Of the RIO Grande is
feeling the presence Of newly-located
towns and newly-established farms.
But the want of water during the
summer months is a draw back to the
settlement Of an otherwise acceptable
region. The river takes to the Gulf
in the course of the year enough
water to supply all demands, but there
ia too much in the icy half and too
little while the heated term presses.
As matters stand the people of New
Mexico have either feast or q
famine. Towns on the banks of the
Rio are endangered by food in win
ter and drouth in summer. William
Kroenlg, who lives near Las Vegas,
has overcome the trouble inasmuch
as he is personally concerned, having
made four artificial lakes in the
midst Of his three thousand acres of
land. So successful has been Kroe-
nig's experiment that it is now pro-
posed to ask Congress to establish a
system of artificial lakes throughout
the valley of the Rio Grande. Those
who are directly interested in the
scheme claim that two million acres
of the finest land on the Continent
may be insured never-fsiling crops.
The plan 10 to dig . chain of lakes
along both sides of the river, the
lakes to be connected with one an
other by bitches. In the season Of
freshets everything may be filled to
the brim, Tor use during the dry spell,
when the supply Of water shall be
regulated by gates and sluices.

i JUST ASSESSMENT.

That portion of the main track of
the v. & T. r. r. in Storey county
has been assessed at $s5, 900 per mile.
and The slds-track at $4,000 per mile.
This is ~ increase, over last year, of
$4,000 per Tile on the first, and
$4,000 per Hifs on the second kind
Of track. 1t is to be hoped that the
Commissioners Of Lyon county will
NOT fail to profit BY the example thus
set them by our neighboring county.
The profits of the railroad company
named are enormous, and there is no
reason why it should not bear just
proportion Of the burdens OF gov
