4 ROYAL P4LR-RLBT KING
AND FOREST QUEEN

The extensive and systematic de-
Selopment whic;, has been progressing
on these two mines the past three
months, and which is still being
pushed forward night and day with
out intermission, has demonstrated a
vastness of wealth which surpasses
even the brilliant promise Of the carly
surface workings.
The Development to date consist ,on
both mines, of four shafts, three drifts
or levels, and one cross-cut tunnel,
covering altogether length Of over
thirteen hundred feet on the vein and
one hundred and eighty feet in depth
at the lowest point. These develop
meEts have all been made in the most
thorough and workmanlike manner,
under the efficient supervision of Lee
Thompson, Esq, superintendent Of
the Queen, and Mr.. Richard Banny,
foreman OF the King, and are such as
any camp SO young as ours may well
feel proud.
Powerful hosting machinery. will
be in place on each mine by the first
of October, and every arrangement
perfected for steady working all win
ter.
Contracts have been made with the
Iowa Smelling Co., at Crested Butte,
only seven miles distant, for the sale
of the ore from both mines up to May
1st, at considerably better rates than
are paid at either Denver or Pueblo.
The sales of ore from the work of
development alone, average about
eight tons daily from both mines and
it is the intention of the owners to
put at least three millions in sight !"
on both properties before commencing
stoplng.
The two mines, as is we'll known,
abut each other on the same lode,
and are practically under one man
asemcnt, Col. Holt, the sole owner
OF the King, being also president Of
the company owning the Queen.
The latest assays OF ore from bot
tom of the King shaft, the deepest
working Oh the vein, shows that the
mineral holds its richness at depth,
the flrst-class running over $500
ounces, and the second-class 900
ounces Of silver per ton.
The combined wealth Of this royal
old couple surprising everything that
has been fabled Of oriental princes,
though SO we'll boarded for so many
thousands of years, is fast being laid
bare, and is doomed soon to be poured,
as many royal hoard has been
before it, into the common channels
OF daily use

REv Dr.. TAIMAon, q congregational


REy. Dr.. TALMAeE, a congregational
minister Of considerable celebrity,
preached II Brooklyn, n. T., recently
= sermon specially designed 70 restore
fraternal feelings between all classes Of
the northern and southern people. He
had not long previously visited several
southern states, and his discourse
bristled with indignant denials Of the
lslanderons misrepresentation Of the
southern people which for thirty years
have formed the chief stock IN trade of
northern republican newspapers, writer's
and public political speakers, and to q
very great extent Of northern repub-
lican preachers. He spoke in the high
est terms Of our land and Of our people,
and strongly urged the Importance Of
diverting southwark the eastern tide Of
emigration to the west, as the best
means of getting the lately opposing
sections better acquainted with each
other, and thereby promoting the res
toration Of perfect amity between them.
Heretofore it has been considered
suicidal to any northern preachers re-
putation for him to openly champion
the there almost universally malign ed
people of the south, and it is crafty
ing to us to know not only that Mr..
Talmage gave us good name, but that
he had the nerve to try 50 hazardous
an experiment.

0vR DlsrRIcr CouRr-Thc frs
term of our district court il our new
judicia, district, and under our new
constitution. Hon. S. D. Read, distric1
Judge, presiding, commenced here las1
Monday. BY law il was a jury term
but owing to recent Legislation the
former jury commissioners thought
that any jury drawn BY them would
be set aside and discharged on 3 chal-
lenge to the array 10 some criminal
case, and that it was therefore best to
save the parish probable unnecessary
expense by not drawing jury.
As required BY law, all cases pend
ing on the docket Of the former parish
court were transferred to the docket Of
the new district court, making however,
with old and new district court cases,
only twenty-five civil cases in all. In
six Of these cases Judge Read recused
himself, referring two Of them to To-
cal attorney as special judge, and the
other four to Judge Hudspeth, of the
18th Judicial district, for trial.
On the second and succeeding days
Of the term District Attorney, A. j.
Kearney, Esq, had all parties under
reeognizance bonds in criminal cases
called on their bonds, and judgments
Of forfeiture of such bonds were rem
dered in many cases. He also filed
nine infermations. Eli Belrose plead
guilty to an information charging
him with larceny, and invoked the
elemcncy of the court. In considera-
ton Of his youth, his previous impris-
onment, and the fact that this was his
first offence, the judge sentenced him
to imprisonment for ten months in the
penitentiary.
Only our local attorneys, and district
attorney Kearuey, Of Cameron, were
present at this term. Our new district
Judge and district attorney were prompt
IN the discharge Of their respective du-
ties, and manifested an evident desire
and intention to transact the business
before them without any unnecessary
delay.

New York, March 1.-The Sun says:
What time Edison can spare from his
electric light he devotes to the perfect
ing Of his plan for obtaining gold out
of ore air, ady used and cast away by
the miners, by aprocess he claims 10
have invented. He has so well salts
tied number of mining engineers and
capitalists that his claim is well foun-
ded that company has already been
organized to work over the tailings cast
off at the furnaces of the great mines.
1t was learned yesterday that this COM
pany have contracted for and secured
$4,000 tons OF this product among the
districts of Virginia City and Lead
Vile, The process by which Edison
proposes to obtain gold is as yet Sc
cret. 1t is said, however, that quick
silver enters largely into the process,
as do also in lesser degree oxide of
lead, carbonate of soda, charcoal dust
and powdered glass.

Why it Thrives In SAN Francisco
The Business Men Obiecting.
New York, March 4.-The Herald's
San Francisco special has the following:
believing that Kearney has been fos-
tered and encouraged by publicity
which the local press, heretofore, have
been giving to this agitation, all the
leading merchants have united and de-
manded that the Incorporate folly OF
the press reports shall cease, or they will
withdraw their business patronage
from these papers; but for the strife be-
tween the newspapers here seeking to
capture Kearney and the workingmen,
he would have been in obscurity long
ago. The papers have, 1 understand,
agreed to leave him, hereafter, unre
ported and in doing so the present agi-
tation will soon cease, as it lives great
ly on publicity. It's orators delighting
to read of themselves and the reports Of

the Louisiana legislature in the arrest
and Imprisonment of the minority for
expressing their dissent ON the declara-
tion that Kellogg should not lie per-

the ire of the southerners. They claim
that sovereign state has the right to
