TUNNELS

There is no authority of law for a tun- mel location 3000 by l5O0 feet. A proper location is the width of the tunnel for 5000 feet.
 There is no provision of law for pat enting tunnel locations, but lodes dis covered in running tunnel may be pat ented in like manner as other lodes.
 The right is granted to tunnel owDers to 15O0 feet of each blind lode, not pre- viously known to exist, which may be discovered in their tunnel
 When lode is struck or discovered for the first time in running a tunnel, the tunnel owners have the option of re- cording their claim of 1900 feet all cn one side of the point of discovery or in- tersecrion, or partly on one side thereof and partly on the other.
 Prospecting for blind lodes is prohib- ited on the line of alocated tunnel while the tunnel is in progress, but other par ties are in no way debarred from pros peeting for blind lodes or running tun- nels so long as they keep without the line of such tunnel.

CROSS LEDGEs.

Revised Statutes. Section 2336.
 Where two or more lodges cross or in- tersect each other, priority of title shall govern, and such prior location shall be entitled to all ore or mineral con- tained within the space of intersection, but the subsequent location shall have the right of way through the space of intersection for the purpose of the con- venient working of the mine. And where two or more veins unite, the oldest or prior location shall take the vein below the point of union, including all the space of intersection.

A foreigner may make mining lOca- ton and dispose of it, provided he be- comes citizen before disposing of the mine. Proof that the party was not a citizen before dispOsing of his claim must be affirmatively shown.
 Locators and intermediate owners other than applicants will not be pre- sumed aliens in the absence of allega- tion or objection prior to issuance of patent.
 The portion of a mining claim sold to an alien cannot be patented while such owner is an alien; but on his declaration to become a citizen his right dates back to his purchase, and he may thereupon secure United States patent for his claim

Long, and carrying thirteen others of
the crew of the Jeanette, was separated
from the two other boats in q gale on
the night of Sept. IL. 1881, when about
fifty miles northeast of the Delta of the
Lena. On Sept. 10 De Long and his
party landed on the north western part

They found native settlement Mt the
mouth OF the Lena, from which search
ing parties started out for the rest of
the retreating party.
Lieut.. George w. De Long, the COM
mander of the expedition, was with
Capt. Braine on the Polaris search,
and then distinguished himself by a
brave attempt to penetrate further north
than his ship could make her way.
He was 81 years old, having been
born in New York in 1914. He was
appointed a midshipman in 1861, pro-
NOTED to ensign in 1866, master in 1865,

The Crops.


The weather since the crops were
planted has been favorable for cultiva-
tions but rather cool for growth. There
have been less compla ints of bad stands,
cut worms and the like this season than
any for several years past, aud there
have been but very few days when
work on the farm could not be prosecu-
ted. The Iaborers have never worked
more rcsolutely, and it may be mention
ed as something remarkable that the
darkies are busy with their hoes and
plows every Saturday afternoon.
EARLY corn will be laid by within a
week, or ten days, and early cotton will
be brought to a stand, with favorable
weather, not much later.
Plow stock looks thin and quaint,
but the ha rdest work of the plantation
is over. Our reports from both the
river and bill lands are encoura cling,
but there arc yet the summer dronths
and the caterpillar to be taken into
account.

Since Sunday last severe storms have
visited Union, Lincoln, Bienville,
Caldwell, Morehouse and Ouachita par
lshes, destroying timber, fences and
buildings, and obstructing travel along
the highways. The telegraph lines are
down both east and west, and we have
no means of ascertaining the damage
done, except from rumor, which is too
often exaggerated to be relied upon.
The winds have been on mad frolic

LOUISIANA PRESS ASSOCIATION.


MONROE, La, May s, 1882.
In conformity with the expressed
wishes of a number Of the members of
the Louisiana Press Association, and
because of the partial destruction of the
railroads running to and from Alexan-
dria, the next place of meeting of the
Association, further postponement Of
the said meeting is announced from
May 20 to Tuesday, July Is, following.
The Executive Committee of the Asso-
citation is charged with representing its
interests during the present session OF
the General Assembly.
G. w. McCRANIE,
Pres't La. Press Association.
The announcement made above was
the reasons seemed to be imperative.
We annex letter received from Mr..
Bentley, Secretary of the Press Associa-
ton:
DoNALDsoNVILLE, La,
April &c, 1882. !
CAPT. G. w. McCRAN1E, Monroe, La,
Dear Sir,-In addition to the re-
marks made by the Chief on the sub
ject, permit me to add a personal petit
ton for the posponement of the APP
preaching meeting of our Association
until after the adjournment of the Gen
eral Assembly. believe such a course
will best subserve the purposes of the
Association and induce a larger atten-
dance. Besides the fact that the meet
away from Alexandria, some of our
overlooked confreres will scarcely have
time to recuperate from the privations
and depression incident to the inunda-
ton, and, furthermore, it is highly
probable that neither of the railroads
by the date now fixed for our reunion.
I hope you will direct postponement
of the session. Mrs. Bentley joins me
in kindest regards, and hopes to ac-
company me to the Associations meet
ing. We will bring several Baton
Rouge friends also if the session be not
held in May.
1SSSpSCAAuAy YOURS,
l.. L. BENTLEY.
To the same effect we find in the
Sugar Planter the following article:
The time is rapidly approaching
when we should hear from President
Mechanic whether he will consent to
delay the annual meeting to some time
in July or not. The press seems al
most unit in favor of the delay, and
should have full weight with our chief
officer. TO hold the meeting in this
month, as pointed out at the adjourn
ment ordered at Alexandria last month,
will, in our opinion, only result in slim
attendance and consequent failure.
There are many reasons for this belief,
not the least of which is the condition
of the country from the late overaows
aud the difficulty of travel. A month
or two of delay in the time of meeting
will add to our strength, induce greater
harmony in our proceedings and full
attendance. Our fraternity are fully
aware of this, and, as all are anxious
to establish the Association upon an
endurable basis, we are of opinion that
President McCranie ought to yield the
point for the sake of the benefits to
follow. We should like the views of
our contemporaries upon the subject.
