months. After an operation he sudden

his native language. He had, however,
been absent from Wales more than
thirty years, and previous to the accl-
dent had entirely forgotten Welsh, al
though he now spoke it huently, and
recollected not a word of any other
tongue. On his perfect recovery he
again completely forgot his Welsh, and
recovered his English.

ruE MININa OUTLOOK.

The Mining and Scientific Press" Of
San Francisco, devotes an interesting arti-
Gle to the mining outlook on the Pacific
Coast. That it is brighter than for many
years seems true. The heavy discount on
silver and the low price paid for lead con-
stitute the greatest barriers to our pros
perity. These obstacles, however, let us
hope, may prove of but short duration.
We make the following extract from the
" Press" review Of the situation THUS
far during the current year the business Of
mining for the precious metals on this
coast has been well prospered. We speak,
Of course, Of productive mining, the spec
ulative branches of the business suffering
unusual depression. Hardly ever have
stock operations SO languished. The re-
vealment Of other bonanzas on the Com
stock, now deemed imminent, will be
likely, however. to restore animation to
the mining share market. Whether or not
this will prove to be the case, certain 1T is,
the working miners are pushing their
labors with unwonted energy, and with
every prospect that they will harvest this
year a full crop Of bullion. Never since
the first pan Of dirt was washed at Suffers
mill. has mining seemed to be in a more
healthful and progressive condition than
Il present.

WASHINGTON, April 80.
A well attended Democratic caucus was
held this afternoon, for the purpose OF de-

in regard to the Presidents veto. After
some discussion upon o proposition to refer
the veto message to the Judiciary Commit
tee, or to a Special Select Committee, with
q view to obtaining q report which should
exhibit its alleged incorrect Interpretation
Of the purpose aud effect Of the sixth sec
ton Of the bill, it was decided to bring the
measure TO q direct vote tomorrow, with
out debate or reference. A resolution
embodying this conclusion was finally
adopted with great u%nanimity, as follows:
Resolved, That it is the sense OF this eau
Gus that the bill making an appropriation
for the support Of the army should pass,
Notwithstanding the objections OF the
President, and that we will proceed to take
q vote on it to- morrow without debate.
WASHINGTON, May l.
In the House of Representatives to-day
Mr.. Sparks called up the order made yes
terday to reconsider the Army Appropria-
ton bill. A vote was taken upon the ques-
ton, no debate being allowed, whether
upon reconsideration the House will pass
the Army Appropriation bill, notwithstand-
ing the objections Of the President. The
House refused the passage Of the bill over
the Presidents veto, the vote standing
yeas, 100; nays, ITO. This was not, OF
course, the necessary two-thirds in the
affirmative. 1t was a strictly party vote,
only three Of the Greenbackers voted for
the bill and nine against it.
