ON THE HALF.SHELL.

The New York Mail has an interesting
paragraph on the subject of oysters. In
its issue of Aug. 26 it says: "Six more
days and September, the first of the RS,
will be here, and the oysters will come
with IL. But if one of the chief oyster
dealers of the metropolis is to be be.
lieved the oyster does not desert the mar
kets with the departure of the last RI
month. He says that a large quantity Of
the bivalves is required to supply the
demand ever in midsummer, the Jews
especially being oyster eaters the whole
year round. He estimates that 900, OOO.-
900 oysters are sold in New York during
May, June, July and August, and l, 22O,-
600, 900 during January, February, March
and April. At IN average wholesale
price of. IS per thousand the value of the
oysters sold in New York during each
year would be SIG, 900, 600. And the de-
mand for oysters is increasing in the
Western States, dealers having learned
how to ship them in the shell with safety
for great distances during all the r.
months. With such statistics before us,
even if the figures be reduced to avoid
exaggeration, it is natural to exclaim,
Great is the oyster!"

CAMP THOMAS, September 1.-Thers has
been great uneasiness in the Apache coun-
try for the past two weeks, over rumors
that the White Mountain Indians, near the
fort, were excited and ready to break out at
any time. On the 18th General Wilcox,
commanding this district, sent all the avail
able troops in the southern part of the Ter
ritory to assist in quelliDg the disturbances
of the Indians, who were reported to be
excited by bad medicine men, who promise
to raise dead warriors and clean out the
whites, but the time of their miracles hav-
ing passed, and no signs of hostilities ap-
pearing, the soldiers were sent back to their
posts. General Carr, of the Sixth Cavalry,
was at Fort Apache with some scouts and
several companies, and there seemed to be
no apprehension of danger; but to-day a
courier arrived from the commanding Off
Ger there, stating that Carr was out to pro-
tect settlers, and had been fighting all day
on the Both, losing q number of soldiers.
The couriers sent to him had not returned,
though "a hours overdue. General Wilcox
has ordered out all the troops from Forts

Indian

Indians are like a great many white men
in sometimes losing their courage after
getting on the ground for a duel. Slitlip
Bob and Square Sam, young braves Of the
Santee Sioux. were so equally attractive in
the eyes of Sal Polly, their chiefs daugh-
ter, that she would not choose between
them. She promised, however, to accept
the survivor of a duel, and 1t was agreed
that the fight should be a deadly one with
stone-headed war clubs. The meeting was
ceremonious in a high degree, and it was
only after lengthy preliminaries that the
two warriors, mounted on ponies, armed
with the murderous clubs, and hideous in
war paint, faced each other for the en-
counter. They circled around for an hour,
harmlessly whooping and gesticulating,
then they came together, whacked away
wildly for a while, but injured nothing,
except the ponies; and, finally, Sam ac-
cepted Bob's offer Of FIVE horses and q gun
to relinquish his claim on Sal Polly.

GENERAL GIANTS DENIAL.

General Grant has thought it neces-
sary to deny that he has been in con-
sultation with Vice. President Arthur on
political matters. He says he has met
the Vice President but once in a long
time, and adds that no person having
any idea of propriety would think of
speaking to General Arthur ON such a
theme under existing circumstances. We
are glad to hear from General Grant
direct that he has not engaged in putting
up political jobs while President Garfield
seemed 80 near to deaths door. OF

Logan and Jones only called upon Vice.
President Arthur to condole with him

FROM TaE WEST.
Another New Industry

One car load of antim0ny, ten tons
in all, was received yesterday by G.
l.. Oudesluys & Co., from the south
ern part of Utah Territory, being
the first anthony received in the
east from the mines Of that section.
The antimOny was mined about 40
miles from Salt Lake City, and, OW-
| ing to the limited means of trans
portatlOn, had to he hauled 125 miles
to Juab, i'll Utah, where it reached
the railroad, and came east by Way
OF Chicago. It was an expensive
shipment comparatively, but placed
the ore here cheaper than the same
amount could be imported from
Great Britain. The ore is a sui
phIde, bluish-gray in color, and
yields from TO to IS per cent. of anti
mony. In the vicinity Of the place
Were it was mined there are said to
be 433 acres of antimony-bearing
formation, with an estimated yield
of 1859 tons to the acre. There are
also no doubt other places where the
mineral can be found in this cOun-
try, but the success in the Utah
mines shows the boundless re-
sources OF the United States, which
can now produce almost any
thing it needs. All anthony here
tOfore came from Great Britain
and the Island of Borneo, and
paid an import duty of 10 per cent.
al 00lOTem ; and there is some also
from Sonora. 1t is believed that
with proper rail facilities to the
mines of the west there will be no
need for impOrtatiOnS. The British
and BOrnean antimonial deposits are
sulphides like the Utah deposits, but
that from Sonora is an oxide. The
sulphides are easily smelted, but the
oxide is SAID to be richer. Anthony
is largely used in britannia ware,
type metal, stereotype metal, Bah
bit metal for the bearings of ma
chinery, pewter, shot, ammunition
such as explosive projectiles, paints,
pigments, chemical compounds, vul-
canizing rubber, etc., and several
thousand tons are used yearly.
When the mining and railroad facil-
1IleS are greater IL VIII no uOuDG
come into more general use on &C
count of its cheapness. A part Of
the car load received here will prob
ably be sent to England, though
most Of it will be Smelted here.
Metallic anthony is worth about
lac. a pound, and it is thought the
native anthony can even now be
brought to the eastern market at
about 11Ec. a pound cheaper than
from England and Borneo. Anti
mony was first made known as a
metal by Basil Valentine, in the
fifteenth century, and is SAID to have
derived its name from anti-monk,
having proved fatal to some monks,
to whom it was given as medicine.

AN AGREEABLE indication of the
manner in which our fair and clever
countrywOmen are making their
way in English society is afforded in
the programme of a recent aristo-
cratic bazar in London, under the
patronage of the Queen and the
presidency of the Princess of Wales.
Among the ladies in charge Of stalls
are the Princess de Lynar. Miss
Parsons, of Columbus), Mrs. and
Miss RonaldS. Mrs. Lorillard, Wis
countess Vaudeville and Miss
Yznaga. 1t is even more gratifying
to observe that while for two or
three seasons back American girls
have been the regnant beauties of
London society, there has not yet
been the faintest whisper of scandal
concerning one Of their number,
though the scandal-mOngers of the
