Col Eddy, If this city, claims the credit Of
having originally introduced she sluice-bo1 fur
mining purposes, rhe invention owing its origin
to un accidental discovery. Hegves the follow
ing account of his connection with this itn1
porrant discovery: 1u the spr:ng Of 1850, when
vi operations were being carried on by the Atd
OF the long-tom and the rocker, he located i
Claim IN the ravine Just above the Catholic
Church in this city. There were several claims
below him. the bnlders of which refused to al
low him to run tA'ltnys Oh their grouud. So he
made trough leading from his lncation
through theirs and 10 :: p"iut below. On the
bottom uf the siuicc wherever the different sec-
tions Joined. be nailed wooden cleats to keep
the wafer and gravel from leaking through. At
the lower end or the sIulce he placed ii rocker
and for one day manipulated The Dirt that game
down to H. Al the end 0f that day he found
that the rocker huu saved scarcely stuy gold.
Going along Up the suicc. hc found behind each
or the elcnts numerous sparkling partlClc* nj
gold that hud lodged there. Tie abandoned the
use Of the rocker. incrcase'l the number of
cleats, and then commenced what he said was
the first >luicc mining ever carried on in Cali
1uruia and probably in the wt,ru so lar as he
knows. The slu:ce su,d rifles soon became pnp-
tlar. causing the price Ut lumber 10 advance

Ercts about his discovery IS that hc did not have

Something more than the establishment of
a freight-yard is meant by the acquisition of
Il large tract Of 400 acres at Hawthorne BY
the Chicago, Burlington IL Quincy Road. l,
Is limited that the Road means to do nothing
less than to move thither their cur-works
now at Aurora. In doing this it will follow
the example Of the Rock 1slalnl, the North
western, and the Pullman Palace-Car Com
pany. Another. road likely to DO !; similar
thing Is the Illinois Central, which II few
years ago bough Il large tract Of acre property
III See. II, north Of Pullman. for the purpose
Of establishing works there. -Atl these are
but s:raws showing the powerful illiu-
ences at woris to develop the laantl-
flcturing capabilities OF this city. Taken
all in all,~tl,c facilities for tral,spor,a-
tion, the easy concurrence Of clay, iron,
coal, lumber, and labor, the cheapness
of living, and the immense anil growing mar
kit afforded BY tile population of the Nissis-
sippi Valley, Is no other point in tht
United States that can equal Chicago as a
point Of manufacturing.
