MINING EXPOSITION.

The first National Mining and Indus
trial Exposition of Colorado will be held
at Denver Aug. /. Its advantages are
apparent. Steps should be taken to have
Nevada represented. A proper showing
Of our and a proper presenta-
ton Of our prospects would certainly do
US some, possibly a vast deal, of good.
The reasons given for holding the expo
sition as given in the case Of Colorado
apply with equal force in regard to Ne
rada. As announced by the Directors
they are as follows:
The principal cause which gave birth to
the idea OF holding a National Mining and
Industrial Exposition in the Great West
WAS the prevailing ignorance everywhere
concerning the wonderful natural re-
sources of that portion OF the nation lying
west of the Tooth meridian.
1t was felt that the necessity existed for
removing the many erroneous i'm pressions
prevalent, and showing in the most con-
vInclng and satisfactory manner that this
part Of the United States, instead Of being
in one portion a barren desert, and in an
other a mass of snow-clad mountains, re-
ally contains a soil encouraging to the az
ricglturalist, and a marvellous diversity of
native minerals, only awaiting the intro
ducti0n Of manufacturing facilities to fine
an active market.
In mining, inventors will be stimulated
by the demand for new processes that will
make low grade ores more proftable; in
manufactures, capitalists and skilled labor
will find every in%ducement for the estab-
lishment Of new industries. The remote
ness from Eastern sources OF supply acts
as a protective tariff to the producer here,
where crude material exists in profusion,
and is comparatively neglected.
To bring capital face to face with these
opportunities for investment with skilled
labor, to more rapidly develop the coun-
try, is an aim and purpose of the Exposi-
ton, and the display now in preparation
is designed especially to hasten the estab-
lishment Of extensive and iourishing in
dustrial communities.

The Mother of FOrty.fOur Children.


If the Great Napoleon's famous defni-
ton Of superlatiye female excellence may
be accepted as correct, DR.. Mary Austin is
unquestionably the most admirable woman
in France. This lady has just completed
her thirty-third year of welded life, DUR
ing which period she has presented her
husband with no fewer than forty-four
pledges Of her wifely affection. In the
Spring of 1858, four years after her mar
riage, Mary Austin, nee Kilud, passed her
final examinations at the Medical College
of Orleans, and obtained diplomas author
izing her to practice in both branches of
her profession. As soon as the Franco
Prussian war broke out she joined the
army of the Union with her husband, and
the prolific pair served with extraordinary
distinction throughout the four years
struggle-Dr Austin in her surgical ca
pacity, and Colonel Austin as an active
militant. The former, whilst attending to
the hurts Of her comrades under fire, was
thrice wounded in action-the latter five.
times. At the conclusion of the war, the
valiant doctor, having lost her left eve in
the service of her country, but in other re-
spects none the worse for her injuries and
fatigues, returned to her private practice
covered with glory and in the enjoyment
of a staff officers position. Since then she
has lived in peace and honor, the pride of
her fellow-citizens, and indefatigable in
her endeavors to render her warrior lord
the happiest Of fathers.

BURY THE "IRON.CLaD.,.

The bill which has been introduced in
Congress providing for the abolition of
what is known as the iron-clad oath in
so far as it applies to members of the
Federal Senate and House of Representa-
tives, the New York Herald thinks,
should be passed, but with an amend
ment. The amendment which the COM
NOR sense and the patriotism of the
country will suggest is that the abolition
should be unlimited. If the legislators
of the Republic can be trusted to take
the simple oath of allegiance without an
iran-clad appendix, the executive and the
Judicial departments can certainly be
trusted to an equal degree. If it is abol.
ished in the case Of the one, there is no
reason why it should be retained in the
case Of the Others. This oath is the relic
of ar era Of anger which we all profess
to be anxious to terminate. It's retention
IN the statute booka does more harm
than good, and the sooner it is swept
away the better.
