OUR PROSPERITY.

The wave of prosperity with which
the country is submerged, shows no
signs of recession or abatement. The
credit of the nation is as good as that
of any other nation, and better than
most of them; the people are pros
porous and happy 1.-THE different kinds
of money of the country are different
only in names and materials of which
they are made, not in value. Farmers
are busy harvesting the largest crops
ever grown on American soil in one
year the prices being obtained for
them are remunerative, and their own
ers are correspondingly happy; every
coal and iron mine is teeming with
active life, and their precious contents
are being brought to the surface and
added to the general material wealth
every workshop and industrial estab-
lishment is hive of busy industry;
the looms and spindles in every mill
are huming as they aid in the produc-
tion of fabrics for the use of a mighty
nation; almost numberless mill stones
are running night and day grinding
golden grain into -four; the laborer
finds abundant work for his hands, for
which he receives remunerative reward
for his toll, and there has never been
a time in our history when we have
had such prosperity as we have to-
day. The annals Of this nation at no
time give evidences of any correspond
ing condition. Under these happy
and auspicious circumstances, let us
feel rejoiced and refreshed, and let us
move forward in our march to wealth
and Importance with serious glad
ness because we are thus blessed.

RELICS OF THE SPANISH
MINERS.

DR.. M. a. Bartleson has in his office
an antiquated copper kettle and a
eopper ball, supposed to have been in
tended for cannon ball, which were
unearthen recently in mine on the
west side of Socorro mountain. These
relics ofby-gone days were found 20
feet below the surface of the earth.
there were found about thirty balls
and only the one kettle, and all of
these articles are of pure copper. The
Kettle gives evidence of having been
repeatedly patched with pieces of sheet
copper, SO rudely and carelessly put
together that it is hardly reasonable to
suppose that the vessel was used for
holding fluids. 1t has a handle on
one side and traces of one on the 9th
er, and it is thought that it was used
for raising ore out of shaft, which
was probably sunk when the spaniards
first occupied this country. There
are many mines in the vicinity of So
CORA which give evidences of having
been worked in the distant past, but
of this it is impossible to gain any
definite information. Nevertheless
the theory of their having been util,
lied BY the ,Spaniards centuries ago is
generally accepted.-Mtav Mexican

BAD on LEADVZLLE.

The following is going the rounds
of the press: A Com tocker, who re-
Gently visited Leadville, writes home
that there are too many "professors !"
In the country. You can't throw a
shovel full Of dirt out of a prospect
hoe without pitching it against the
spectacles or eye-glass of a "profes-
sor." All day long you hear the cal
culations Of Prof. Raymond, of the
analysis Of Prof. Stretch, the assay of
Prof. Westlake, the conjectures of
Prof. Keys, the formularization of
Prot. Low, the theories of Prof. Rob-
erts, the conjectures of Prof. jerks,
surveys Of Prof. Blinks, the processes
OF Prof. Minks. They were getting
along we'll enough at taking out and
smelling their ores until the profess
sors came in and began measuring the
mines by the acre. If they saw the
corner of the blanket was sound they
reported the whole blanket perfect,
yet a blanket may show sound corners
and be very ragged in ..the center, or
there may be nothing Of it but cor
ner.
