HARVEST HOME
AZ High Ridge Belmont County, Sat-
urday-AddFeSs. Etc.

n
urdav-Address, Etc.
The Harvest Home picnic and reunion OF
of farmers at High Ridge, Ohio, Saturday,
was one of the most enjoyable affairs of the
kind ever held in the State of Ohio. The
the day was glorious, the air balmy, cool
and pleasant The spot selected for the oc-
casion, one of the best adapted to its pur-
poses imaginable and the crowd collected,
was one of the happiest and most orderly.
Early in the cool August morning they be-
gan to gather, and by noon all were on
hands, the old men talking of crops away
back in the "twenties,r and contrasted
as compared them with the meageH p
yield of the present unremunerative peri
cd. The practical farmer of the present
talked with his intelligent and sympathetic
neighbor of the abundant season, the price
of wool. or maybe of some marvellous in
yeption of an agricultural implement that
would simplify and facilitate some OF the
harder farm work. The ladies, young and
old. we'll. they talked of everything at
once. and OF fall fashions in particular.
The forenoon was passed in happy inter
change of opinions, and at noon all gather
ed around one OF the most
substantial harvest feasts that
ever weighted down hoard.
Near the place OF speaking IS q beautiful
knoll gently receding on each side and to
the centre the housewife brought her con-
tribution of cold chicken, white chicken,
apples, cakes, &c, &c. Around this knoll
was an enclosure in the form OF circular
table and on this table were placed the
yiands in endless profusion and of lengthy
appearance. Dinner over the the crowd
was called to order and J. J. Ashenhurst,
of the Freeport Press, was called 10 the
chair. Acknowledging the honor he in
troduced Hon. Ross J. Alexander, who
smoke for a quarter of an hour with great
good taste upon agricultural subjects.
A. W. Campbell, Esq, 1.-THE Western
Horace Greely), followed Mr.. Alexander IN
a half hours address. his remarks running
in the same direction as those OF that
gentleman. 49,.
Hon. J. D. Cox. Ex-Governor OF Ohio,
was the next speaker, and for some time
he delighted his auditors with very
clever speech upon the agricultural
methods of the present. Mr.. Cox, it is very
evident. has a practical knowledge OF farm
ing and the attention that was given him
showed how well his remarks were appre-
ciated.
Mr.. Ashenhurst complemented the re-
marks of the three preceding gentlemen
with some few remarks, after which all
went home to their farms well pleased with
the day and its lessons.

Mining.
Carson AppeAl.

OarSOl Appehls
1t is an established fact that the Chinese
will engage in any occupation in which
there is d possibility of realizing the most
insignificant profit, however many and
great the obstacles may be. Heretofore
the Chinese have confined themselves al
together to placer mining; but now they
a number of Cinnamon have been pros
pecting in the hills west Of Carson, for
Quartz, but with what success we have
been unable to learn. We are also inform
ed that there Ia q Chinese chemist in China
town who makes assays Of their samples
Of rock. Whether the correctness OF his
assays can be relied upon it IL difficult to
say; but who ever heard OF a Monaghan as
sayer in this country before? In an inter-
view with the Appeal reporter this China
man stated that he came by his knowledge
Of assaying in the office Of the late Conrad
Wiegand at Virginia, where he had been
for many years employed. He never re-
ceived any instructions from the attaches
OF that establishment but familiarized him
self with the process as much as possible
by the closest observation. He does not
claim only to baable to make ore assays,
but says that he can also determine the
ineness Of bullion. Upon further inquiry
he remarked that he receives ore samples
from Chinese all over the State. These
prospectors are being encouraged by veal
thy Chinese companies in San Francisco,
who will devote a part Of their unlimited
means to the development OF any good
property that their eountrymen may STUN
BILE across. This further demonstrates the
fact that the Chinese are bound to engage
in every industry now engaged in by our
people. But this does not benefit us, for
every ounce Of gold or silver they extract
from our soil is shipped to China.

School Examination.

Examinations were held yesterday by
Miss Mau, Miss Riley and Miss Mannheim
in their several departments OF the public
school. Our reporter, not being aware
that anything more than the usual exer-
cises was going on in Miss Mau's room,
did not pay her a visit, which pleasure,
however, he will avail himself Of before
the week is over. In Miss Manheim's
room he found the lads and lassies in good
order. and heard them read without the
ordinary ding-dong Of beginners. This is
a credit to the young school mistress. In
Miss Riley's room, also. our quid nunc
made a brief visit. He heard the girls and
boys recite fairly in their oral work with
figures and he listened to them read. He
was much pleased with the Evolutionary
exercises with which Miss Riley prepares
her olaas for their reading.

Notes ON the Election of state Sen.
atOra this Fall.

LARSON CITY, June 40, 1854.
EDITOR SILVER STATE: In making up
the legislative tickets throughout the State
his Fall, Democrats should not lose sight
Of the fact that all Senators elected this
year will have q vote upon the next United
States Senator. The party should pay
especial attention to this part Of the ticket,
there being but little doubt that the Re-
nublicans will be considerably damoralized,
many influential members Of that party
having tired of the do-nothing policy Of
u Republican Senator. About the only
legislation in which this people feel a d.
RECT and personal interest has been OBJ
tanned through our Democratic members.
Jones having scarcely been known In con.
uection with either the Indian war claims
OF the Government building, and, I pre-
sumo, has become too indolent for any
further use. Since the Inauguration Of
his Stalwart Aocidency. our senior Senator
has been rendering services TO the Conk-
ling wing In wedding out the last twelve
dollar Hali-breed Postmaster in the land,
seemingly caring nothing for the wishes OF
those to whom ne ives his position, and to
whom he will look for a reelection. Many
well-informed people believe that a thor
ough ventilation Of Mint matters would OF
itself be sufficient to settle the aspirations
of the Grown Point Senator.

EUREKA SOIL.
Why May 1t Not Produce Fender

Why May 1t Not Produce Tende
Plants and Vegetables?
We do not believe that the culture OF
trees. plants. grasses and tender vegetables
has had q fair trial in the canyon In which
Eureka Is situated. In some places the
soil 10 not deep enough to grow the ordin-
airy garden vegetables. but these spots are
few. In most places it is deep enough to
insure the growth OF trees. the roots OF
which penetrate deep into the aarth. The
soil Is not bad. II contains less alkali
thar the soil in other parts OF the country
and State where fruits and flowers and
trees are successfully cultivated. 1t was
only twelve years ago that the people in
and about Carson City began to think that
other trees could grow in that neighbor-
hood as we'll as cottonwoods. Since that
time a great variety of ornamental shade
trees has been set out, and the cottonwoods
have been generally cut down and burnt
up. The same notion formerly prevailed
there in regard to the raising Of fruit and
vegetables; but. within the last seven or
eight years, by studying out the difficulty,
the people about the Capital have learned
to raise in abundance such fruits as cher

When they harvest a crop of fruit, which

in and around Carson, large quantities OF
squashes, tomatoes, watermelons and

to believe that when once people have

EUREKA MINES IN LONDON.

ing:
Riohmond-The usual telegram from
the mines in Eureka. Nevada, states that

of ore with one furnace. During the

a section very favorable for ore.
RuBY-DUNDERBERa-The weekly report
advises a continuance of explorations in
the Dunderberg mine, with further devel'
opments Of the No. 8 ore body (the recent
ore body discovered) both above and below
the 700 level. A small seam Of ore has in
addition been found in the 600 level, and il
