The Melbourne International Exhibition
.lanehesser Courie-.


 Progress continues to be made with the works connected with the exhibition 10 be opened in Melbourne in October, 1880. From an estimate prepared by the secretary it appears that the build ings, if completed on the scale al pres ent determined on, will cost el64-5j0, and that the cost of management will be about e51 ,1!O. But the Government has required notifications in the building estimate, which will reduce the expen- allure in the current financial year to sI00,000, and cause one of the items buildings in quadrangle) to be post poned for the present. Ii is calculated that the attendance Of visitors will amount to 700, 900 persons, and that the proceeds of admittanee will amount to e35, 900. Adding together the cost of building, expenses of management, pre- hminary expenses, and estimated un- foreseen expenses, and deducting prob able receipts, it is expected that the net cost of the exhibition will be E21s, ,735, but if the items disallowed by the Gov ernment should be permanently Jeff out, the gross amount will be E200, 900. Under the approved scheme, space to the amount of 543,s5S feet will he pro vided.

>peeulating in Bonanzas.
Leadville Chronlele.

Since the arrival of John Maekey, the California Rothchild, and his party, il has been expected change in the pro- prietorship of our bonanzas would take place. The parties of both the first and second part are so very reticent that the exact conditions are not attainable, but il is beyond question that Borden, Tabor & Co. have offered their property to them. IL consists of the Vulture, Car. boniferous, Chrysolite, Triangle, Little Eva, Pandora, Fairview and Colorado Chief mines. The price of the interests of Bordon & Fields is stated to be SI ,S75,- 900, and that of the entire property s. 500,O00. Messrs. Langhorn x Co. own one-third of the Yulture, and may stand in the way of the proposed sale.
 Diligent inquiry on the outside rings a good many changes on the above, which is from gentleman in position toknow something of the matter. One statement is that two forty-horse power engines have been ordered, and big hoisiing works and furnaces erected of the largest capacitv.

Alaska Cold

The importance of Alaska as a gold bearing territory is no longer in ques- tion. For many months it has been known that gold existed through DOT tions of the territory in paying quanti- ties, and various explorations for 1t have been conducted during the Russian oo- cupatiOn of Alaska. Indians from the interior frequently brought to the iron tier trading posts specimens of pure na- tive gold, and explorations since made have resulted in snbstantiating the opinion that the country was rich in placer mines and probably in quartz veins The first gold bullion product from Alaska left Sitka Sept. 6, on the steamer California, for the San Francisco mint. IL is believed to be Of excellent quality. Quite an excitement is rife in Sitka in consequence of lively prospects of extensive discoveries of quartz veins and an extended rush of miners to Alaska next season is expected to be the result of this first bullion yield The placer mines are believed to be ex- tFaordinarily rich, and certain indica- tiOns lead to the belief that al an early period gold discoveries will be made in Alaska

SOLDIERS AT THE POLLS.

The Springfield. Massachusetts,, Re-
publican, one of the fairest Republican
Journals published, comments on Conk
aIsg S. speech In favor of Federal troops
at the polls as follows: Mr.. ConkHng
has represented the State of New York
M de Federal Legislature for nineteen
years. At the opening of his third
term in the Senate he rises to say, with
all the weight that his past record can
give, that this great State cannot keep
the peace within its borders on election
day, unless Federal troops aid the civil
power. The public peace, the peace at
common law, the peace of the people
OF the State of New York, by the grace
Of God free and independent" which
every indictment read III its courts
recognizes peace Senator Conkling
says cannot be kept without standing
army. He says more; he says that
the voters of the State of New York,
500, 1000 in number, one-tenth the
voters in the Union, cannot have fair
election, are not able to have one,
without Federal aid. Mr.. Conkhng
does not declare Federal aid desirable,
he declares it necessary. Ii this were
true, we should be forced to despair OF
the republic; but it is not true, and as
between Senator Conklng and the
sepubic We prefer to despair OF Senator

THE NEW SILVER EaLL.

The Reno Gazette is opposed to the
passage of the new silver bill now be-
fore the House of Representatives,
which provides for the free coinage of
silver bullion at the mints. 1t thinks
the bill gives the producers of silver
bullion too many advantages.
1t is surprising that a person or news
paper in Nevada, whichis the greatest sil-
yer producing State in the world, should
object to legislation in the interest of
silver mining. The Government by a
high protective tariff encourages iron
mining and there is no good reason why
it should not recognize the great impor-
lance of silver mining to the country by
encouraging it to the extent of coming
silver bullion free of charge at the
minis. The sugar planters of Louisi-
ana, and the factory owners of New
England are accorded privileges by the
Government, which enables them at the
expense Of the whole people to make
their business profitable. yet the Gazette
does not object to high tariff on iron,
sugar and cotton and wooden goods,
but it does think that it would be a
gross injustice to those who are not en-
gagged in silver mining for Congress to
pass bill authorizing the free coinage
of silver bullion at the United States
minis. This privilege has always been
accorded the owners of gold bullion,
though only a few years ago, gold was
at discount compared with silver.
Silver mining is to-day one of the great
est industries of the country, and de-
serves all the encouragement which
Congress is likely to give it and Neva-
dams should throw no obstacles in the
way of any Act that is likely to get it
OH par with gold as it was before the
demonstration Act of 1873.
