Mining Attitudes.

A good deal Of nonsense Is being in
dulged IN BY contemporaries about the
attitudes at which mines, and especially
silver mines, are found and one para
graph, evidently started by 3 man from
/" the Louisiana lowlands," says that
scientific men have proved by actual
measurement that most of the great sill
yer mines lie 10, 900 feet above the pres
ent sea level, and among the richest are
some 2, 900 feet higher still. " Job, of
the land Of Uz, who was doubtless bet
ter versed in geology, mineralogy, met
ailurgy and practical mining than many
of the scissors editors who keep the:
above quotation ahoat, said: 4 Surely
there is a vein for the silver, and place
for gold where they fine lrefine or purify
it. Rich silver mines have been found
as high as is, 900 feet, and many Of them
as much as 10, 900 feet above. the level
of the sea, but it does not follow that
silver mines are found only at such alti-
tudes. The highest groupings Of the
famous Comstock are considerably less
than {, 900, and the Eberhardt, Of White
Pine the richest silver mine in the
known world -is barely 1900 feet above
the sea level The Carthagenian mines
Of antiquity, which at one time en-
ployed 40, 600 operatives, were scarcely
8, 900 feet high, and the rich mines Of
Tombstone in Arizona do not attain even
SO great an altitude. In all the broad
mineral region of Nevada, no paying
vein of silver ore has ever been found at
an altitude Of 10, 900 feet. It does not
fellov even that because ysins Of silver
are usually found in the older rocks Of
lofty mountain ranges, they may not
also be found in the sandstones and 9TH
er sedimentary rocks Of the valleys, as
in the case Of Silver Reef, Utah The
speculation as to the latitude of Mines
is all nonsense, for '.surely there is a
vein for the silver, and that vein Is as
likely to be found, all other conditions
being favorable, at an altitude Of 1000

Uses or Charcoal. !.

Charcoal, laid flat, while cold, on a
burn, causes the pain to abate immedi-
ately; by leaving il on for an hour, the
burn seems almost healed, when it is
superficial. And charcoal is valuable
for many other purposes. Tainted meat,
surrounded with it, is sweetened !; strewn
over heaps of deoomposed pelts, or over
dead animals, it prevents an unpleasant
odor. Foul water is purified by it Il
is great disinfectant, and sWeetens the
air il placed in trays around apartments.
It is so very porous In its = minute inte-
rior" Il absorbs and condenses gases
most rapidly. One cubic inch Of fresh
charcoal win absorb nearly 100 Of case
GUS ammonia. Charcoal FORMS an un-
rivaled poultice for malignant wounds
and sores, often corroding away dead
flesh, 4reducing il one quarter in six
hours. In cases.of what we call proud
flesh it is invaluable. It gives no disa-
greable odor, corrodes no metal, hurts
no texture, injuries no color, is / simple
and safe sveetener and disinfectant. A
teaspoonful Of charcoal in half q glass Of
water often relieves sick headache !; it
absorhs the gases and relieves the dis
tended stomach pressing against the
nerves, which extend from the stomach
TO the head. 4
