FICTITIOUS VALUATION.

The delirinus excitament and
 feverish craze that attend. win in-
 ev;table regularity, all mining dis
 coveries, are some of the results of
 the peculiar discipline of Wersern
 life. If these eff, cts were wholly
 individual in their mutations. and
 in the deteri rating marks which
 they invariably lave beIiud, We
 might well bury them without com
 ment in the grave of the other fol- lies of mankind, but they last.
 They live longer than the good
 that came with their cause. We cannot relegate them to oblivion
 with justice to the community in which they were born, for, in their turn, they have been the cause of curse which retards the real devel- opment of mining property. In this race for wealth, miners have nc'ived that the first thing to ac- compliSh after discovering ledge is to form company to work it, and to whom tine can g Il their in
 tcrcst. If they do not succeed in organizing such d corporation. they virtually abandon the property. They think their wealth is not 10 be found in the ore taken from tie mine, but in the sale of the prop ertY upon q stock board. We ad- nit that stock boards are practical methods 10 induce the people at large, to invest their money in min ing enterprises, but wh re one mine is developed by tlis in-thol one | l.u dr,d are undis urbed by the l pick and sliovtl It has conc to be the recognized manner of d vel 1 oping such property, and failure to carry out such 2 scheme of organ iza ton, means abandonment by the | locator. We know that it takes mon 10 open min and that | mo t loc"to's are poor men. That they have t the means to erect milling m chincry, and so must re- sort to this scheme of inco. poralion. There is a remedy. Let our en- terprising m II organizr few com panie~ t. er'ct custom mills. This | will encourage poor miners.

wonderfal Freak of Nature.

We hare n Phenix a natural phenomenon. which compares very favorably with the productions of other town of similar size. The boy,
 for he is but sixteen years of age, has the remarkable muscular power of being able 10 throw all his limbs out of joint without the slightest pain. He car by tbe exercise of this power fold his body in 8 very small space. His mother. on being interviewed, states that she first remarked it,when he was about ten years of age. When chas,ising the child, one of his aTEls came from is socket. but il was placed in position again without the Highest pain to the child. The ouhle seems to he that hy continu aily excrcising the power. he has weakened the muscle and cords his anatomy so much that any of his limhs are liable 10 become unjointcd OH the slightest provocaiion. We re- frain from publishing the parents names from motives of delicacy.

Ne,ysuaper Borro w@rs.

An exchange recently published letter from a lady subscriber, in which she complained bitterly of the annoyance she experienced from the hauit of her female neighbors: had Of constantly borrowing her paper The exchange failed to advise her . the subject, and as Inc matter is serious enc, We have looked into the subject for some method of relief and now think we caE offer the suT-
 erlng lady, and all others similarly situated. an adequate means of sue cor. Here Is our plan: Let the lady inmcdis. ely Up jn receiving her ? per, carefully cut from il some iten.- it makes no particular difference vi at it is-mOst any item will do, only let it be neatly and carefully re
 moved from the paper. Then the fCllowin- proceeding will be sure te ensue: In few moments the neigh bor's boy will call for the paper, will take it home and within three minutes he wiH emerge from the
 house-he will scOos down street and vTy shortly return with Il folded pa
 per cf the same date as the one just
 borrowed. By the time the clipped
 paper has ciFcled round among all the female borrowers. thc street will
 be lively with hurryIng bOA 8 and the revenue of the newspaper will bc materially increased. Net one wo- man among theEs all would he able to sleep wink without knowing just exactly what that cut-Out itemwas. The next day the lady will pursue the same course and similar iesulis will follow. In an extremely obsIi- nate neighbOrhcod these proceedings will have 10 be repeated three CT four times bat not longer. By that time the lady will b. al le ta read her newspaper in peace and the newspa- per fnlnccs will be the gaiRer

 royYcrs are females, but it can't l;c voEcied for in the case of men. There isn't that inherent curiosity to work upon, you know, and-and-
