HOME NEWS.

THE MINERs.-From the depths of
despair our mining population-wh which
includes everybody, direct or indirect
has risen to the highest pinnacle OF hope.
The season which two weeks ago was
regarded as an almost certain failure,
now bids fair 10 prove an average one,
and three months sluicing seems assured.
From every portion of this county comes
the cheering Intelligence that miners
have full heads of water and are doing
splendid work. The days are long and
pleasant and the earth in good condition
for washing. While the season will be
necessarily short, it will be of sufficient
durat ion to enable all to make some
money and add to the general prosperity.
The geld yiold will be close upon a mil~
lion ofdollars.

promise never to do so any more.

Father Drumgoole's Proteges.-
There is s'very worthy Catholic priest
I'm New York, whose heart warmed
years ago toward the friendless urchins
who circulate the great newspapers OF
the metropolis. Agents as they are, in
their small way, of some of the most
prosperous institutions in the country,
until Father Drumgoole rose up as their
advocate, two-thirds of the childish
host lived as carelessly as wild beasts.
Father Drumgoolc established refuge
for them, supplied the lacking care and
protection for their parents, saw that
they were cleaned and well clothed,
and when they came to him cut, wound
ed and bruised, as such waits are apt to
be, applied Giles Liniment Iodide Am
monia to their sores. This is the only
surgery that he uses, and his honorable
name is one Of its strongest endorse
ments.

The great State of Ohio is about to
enter upon another campaign. The
press Of the whole country speaks Of the
coming contest in Ohio as likely to exert
more influence upon the next Presidential
election than that Of any other State in
the Union The nominations for State
officers are already made, and were no
doubt. in great measure made by rings.
1t now remains for the people to consid
er which party has made the most judi.
cious nominations. The next thing in
order will be the County nominations.
which will Of course be made by rings
and cliques in the same way. Would it
not be well to nominate the ticket at once,
and save the trouble of calling con-
vention and the people the humiliation of
acting as jumping-iacks for political
tricksters and wire pullers.
During the years Of the war, when in
obedience to the call of Father Abra-
ham. over one-hslf Of the voters in the
State hsd enlisted for the war. the prom
ises Of place and position for the brave
boys in blue, when this cruel war should
be over, were long and loud. We re-
gret that we have not always kept these
promises. in their letter and spirit. The
South rewards her soldiers and never
forgets to crowd them into places Of
honor and power, and we are already
getting q foretasle of the tyranny we
shall be under when che comes into pow
