WARMING sTREET-CARs.

The man is undoubtedly born, but, if
not, he ought to be, who is to devise
some practicable method for supplying
heat to street-cars so simple in construc-
ton and SO easy Of application and man
agement that during cold weather no
line shall have valid excuse for neg
lecting to supply this necessary provision
for the comfort of its passengers. We
believe that on one or two routes in this
city stoves were last season introduced,
and the comfort was heartily enjoyed
by the travelling public. In New York
and Brooklyn stoves have for several
years been supplied to the cars running
on some of the lines similar to those in
use here. A cylinder of sheet-iron serves
as guard to prevent passengers fall
ing upon it, and the little furnace
is further secured from blocking the
way to passengers by being placed amid
ships, as it were, in recess obtained
by removing portion Of the seat at one
side of the car The result, while not all
that could be desired, is; nevertheless, 50
appreciated by the public that the lines
where in use are thronged with passengers
Another, and, we think, better, arrange
ment consists in running an iron pipe or
drum four or six inches in diameter
lengthwise of the car and down the CEN
ter of the passage-way. In this red-hot
bars of iron are thrust when the car leaves
either terminus and the ends of the pipe
closed. The radiation of heat from this
drum is sufficient to modify the
temperature of the car very SEN
sibly, and as passengers sit with their
feet to it they are able to perform long
rides in the coolest weather in compara-
tive comfort. Other New York lines
have been experimenting with lot water.
This is a, somewhat imperfect arrange
ment, although an improvement over
nothing at all, it's chief drawback consist
ing in the lack of some arrangement on
board for keeping the supply of heat
constant without sacrifice of room. In
most European lines of steam railway the
only provision for comfort in the coolest
weather is to place fiat tanks or lugs filled
with hot water in the bottom of the
coaches. These, of course, quickly part
with their caloric and leave little diminu
ton of the frigid temperature within. Oul
steam railroads have provisions for heating
in all cases, we believe, not by any means
as perfect or regularly tempered as might
be desired, but far in advance of any
thing yet generally provided for horse
cars. Our consolidated lines in this city
{ could, we think afford to grapple thi'
r problem about this time in good earnes
t and see whether Cincinnati might not
: in the matter of comfortable street-ca
!. travelling, lead the other cities of th'
country. A little of the inventive skill
e of Cincinnati artisans could, moreover
e be very happily expended in the direc
5 tion of producing car heater that tn
= dumbest of car drivers could run ant
& could not over-turn or blow up and tha
o the most hypercritical Of grumbling pas
f sengers would have to admit was com
b fort to the wintry travellers with tn
= temperature at zero.

GEORGIA has hitherto been rated as the
Yankee State of the South from the
number and excellence Of its cotton
mills, of which the products have an ex-
tensive sale in the South Atlantic and
Gulf States. North Carolina appears to
be following in the wake of Georgia in
the matter of manufacturing, fifty three
cotton mills being now in successful oper-
alton in the State, and the consumption
of that staple is estimated at 3S,4S4
bales, or over 100000 pounds, an in.
crease of 1864 bales over the previous
year. Three large mills have just been
completed and placed in active operation
with the prospect that several more vii
be added within the year.

THE yield of gold from the mines of
the United States during the past year
are calculated by the officers of the Mint
at SAG, ,726,914, which exceeds by consid-
cradle the yield at any time since 1870.
The heavy yield of that year was almost
wholly sent abroad, while that of the
present remains at home and except the
small proportion made use of in the arts
goes to swell the stock Of precious metals
composing the basis Of the circulating
medium of the country. In addition to
this handsome sum we have the yield Of
our silver mines, which is half as much
more, and since the 1st of January be-

than at the time when he spoke last on
this subject. Three months ago it would
have been deemed Impossible that such a

could occur. The sole question is whether
it is a temporary or permanent one.

Mining Stock Investments,-The Chinese
Question.
An extract from letter written by q gen.
tleman from this city and now residing in San
Francisco, California.
You say that II you unexpectedly became
heir to a certain sum Of money you would in
vest portion of 1t in mining stocks" Let
me say to you that no end of ways to dispose
of idle capital would present themselves, and
know of no easer method of being relieved
Of ones ready money, however large an amount,
than by investing IL in mining stocks, unless
it be at the gaming table, The stock board
and exchange Of this city have ruined more
men than ever did the gaming room and
while | am on the subject let me say that tho
people of the East have but a vague idea of tho
evils of this business on this coast L think il
might be said without the least exaggeration
that all failures that have occurred, or do occur
in this State are caused by investments in
stocks"
This business here differs from its like in
New York in this respect. that in Now York
stocks are mostly confined within certain
| circle of investors and operators while here
| all classes interest themselves in them. La.
borers, mechanics, merchants, clerks, and even
ministers, all seem to be infatuated with this
apparently easy way of getting rich quickly.
| At the close Of each day 1t Is common sight
to soc groups, especially of the poorer classes,
collected around the windows of the numerous
brokers' offices eagerly perusing the bulletin
lists of stocks. Women, too, from the servant
TO the mistress, arc largely interested in this
deceptive scheme, and many man in CalifOr-
mia has become poor from tho secret invest.
ments OF his wife in stocks. All arc stimulated
by the hope that as few, like the bonanza
kings, who sprung from obscurity to the posi-
ton of millionares, they too have chance oil
at least making near approach to these un
precedented lucky fellows
| Alas, IL Is only II chance, and, too often, sad
chance at that Tho fortunate ones are few
while of the unfortunate their name Is legion
More than half the real estate in California
| farming as well as city property, but more es'
pecially tho latter, has been, and is, mOrtgaged
| on account Of this plague. Tho people OF this
