Roach's brazilian Subsidy.

A Rio correspondent of the New York
Evening Post" under date of May 2lst,
makes the following important statement
concerning Mr.. John Roach's Brazilian
steamship subsidy: "The bill granting
subsidy to the Roach steamship line
has at last passed both Houses of the
General Assembly, and has been signed
by the Emperor. The Objectionable
clause, making it obligatory on the com.
pany to stop at Maranhas, was not strick,
en- out, and Mr.. Roach now finds himself
required to perform an impossibility
The contract requires steamers of moi
less than 5000 tons burthen, and yes
sells of this size can not get within nine
miles of the city Of Maranhas. Besides
that, the port is considered so unsafe
that no insurance company can be found
willing to insure the steamers and cargt
il they stop there, and it is safe to pre-
dict that no freight can be procured
witout insurance. Mr.. Roach is, there
fore, in dilemma-one horn O
which requires him to perform impos
sible service for the Government
whose assistance he is seeking, and the
other to ignore the requirements in the
interests Of the merchants whose patron.
age is indispensable to him. 1t is a good
sample of Brazilian legislation"

Man on the Day Of HIS Wed
| ding
A special despatch from Reading, Pa.
dated last last night, says.
Quite a sensation was developed in
this city to-day, caused by the sudden
and unexpected failure of a brideg room
to be present at wedding ceremony
that was to have taken place this af-
ternoon. John R. Miller is one of the
leading hat manufacturers Of this city,
and he was to have been married to al
accomplished daughter of Rev. Mr..
Neitz, Bishop of the Evangelical Church
of this district. Mr.. Miller left Read
ing for N. Y. on Monday of this week,
and was seen at Earle's Hotel on Tues
day morning. In the afternoon he
visited the house of c. H.Tenney & Co.,
No. 537 Broadway, and while there
told Mr.. Hendel, one of the clerks, that
he was going to return to Reading the
same afternoon at o'clock, intending
to arrive here at 10 O'Clock last night.
Nothing has since been heard or
seen of him, and it is supposed that he
met with foul play either before he left
N. Y. or during his journey home.-
Mr.. Miller is gentleman of high char
acter and standing and his habits are
Of unexceptional character. He is so
Der, attentive to business and a bust
ness man in whom the confidence of
the general community was reposed.-
The family Of the bride anticipated no
trouble, and as the marriage ceremony
was to have been performed this after
noon, all the details of the wedding
and reception were completed and full
ly prepared in the undoubting exrecta-
ton that Mr.. Miller would arrive here at
the latest by half past one o'clock from
N. Y. A terrible Disappointment aw aited
the bride, family and assembled friends
The young couple had purchased a
fine residence on the leading street O.
this city and had it completely fur
nished.
Mr.. Miller is about thirty two years
of age, stands about five feet clever
inches high, and weighs about l7(
pounds. He is of dark complexion
and has full beard. An officer o
this city left tonight for N. Y. tt
investigate the case. The affair is the
chief topic of talk in society, and tht
general opinion is that Mr.. Miller ha:
been foully dealt with, or word would
have been received from him in soue

GOLD RIGHT AT HOME.
Its Discovery by Party Of Work.
men In Delaware COnnty.

The Media American" says while
workmsn few days ago were engag-
ed in sinking an artesian we'll in the
factory yard of Messrs. Samuel
Riddle and Son, their attention was
attracted to innumerable yellow specks
in the sand that the machine was suck
ing up, from the old creek bed, seven-
teen feet below the surface.
A closer examination led the gentle
man operating the machine to the con-
clusion, that these yellow specks were
hattened scales of gold, and that the
gigantic augur was forcing its way
througha gold drift. A gentleman, who
has recently been engaged in gold min
ing at the Black Hills, examined a
quantity of the sand, and found it to
contain large percentage OF the pre-
cious metal known as wire gold. Prof.
Foote, of the State Geological Survey,
analyzed portion of the alluvial de-
posit and discovered gold of more than
ordinary purity.
At a recent meeting Of the Franklin
Institute the matter was investigated
and the existence of gold was eBtab-
lished beyond doubt. Six quarts OF
sand yielded Is cents in pure gold,
which is at the rate of over $40 ton.
James Il. Brown, druggist at Reckdale,
subjected quantity of the sand to the
action of nitro-muriatic acid and found
gold in satisfactory proportion.
From the foregoing experiments it
will be seen that gold has been discov.
cred at Glen Riddle, but whether il
exists in sufficient quantities to MAKE
mining a profitable operation is yet g
mooted question. The Messrs. Riddle
are now too busily engaged il. trying tt
obtain stream OF pure water for bleach
ing purposes, to give any serious atten
tion to mining, but should future de-
velopments render large deposit o
gold probable, efforts will no doubt bt
made to secure it. 1t is proposed tt
sink the well to depth of 100 feet
about 20 feet having already been OBJ
tanned.
A gentleman is sinking another vel
in the neighborhood, ostensibly for thu
purpose of experimenting in artesiar
wells but actually-it is said-with q
view to strike the gold vein at another
point. biologists generally assert thai
gold cannot be found in paying quaint
ties on the Atlantic slope, but the assay
of that found at Glen Riddle shows il
to he five times as valuable as such de-
posits usually are.
If Col. Wilcox will Immediately begir
his survey of Delaware county for the
State Geological Survey, and begin it al

for just little while, he will relieve
the curiosity of many people who feal
