LEACHING.

The following simple and inexpen- sive method of teaching ore containing silver in a chloride state may be adopted
 by many of the mine owners of small means. thus becoming useful in enabling them to acquire money enough to assist in the development of valuable property now lying idle, much of the ores in the immediate neighborhood having large percentage of chlorides in them.
 A tank or tub in which false bottom has been laid is all that IS necessary to start with. Holes are bored in the false bottom. like the old fashioned augerhole rife. Fill the tub with the ore and pour in hyposulphits solution. For the work ing of ordinary chloride ore this mixture should contain about fifteen pounds of hyposulphite solution to 70 gallons of water.
 In about an hour the liquor will have penetrated the mass and begin to run out of the cock at the bottom of the tub or tank. Twelve hours is long enough for the bath. The solution is run Into a tub for precipitation.
 Now We have in liquid state all the silver contained in the ores through which the solution passed. In order to get this silver it must be precipitated by sulphide of calcium, made by dissolving one bushel of lime and one peck of sul- phur in about 100 gallons of water. Pour some of this, little at time, into the solution when it assumes a cloudy appearance and the particles be- gin 10 settle. This is the silver being precipitated to the shape of sulphides. By putting in few drops of sulphIde of if the liquor still becomes cloudy, more should be added, as the silver has not all been precipitated. All the silver having settled 10 the bottom of the tub, the solution is poured off and used to leach another tank of ore. The sediment is put into sacks, and all the solution strained off It Is then washed in hot water to get rid of the salts that may remain It is now pressed. as pla- cer miners press amalgam. It is now dried in the open air and ready for roast ing. This roasting process can be done 1 ID a Dutch oven or pan of any kind, 1 leaving the top opsE to allow sulphur | Ous fumes to escape. After roasting it l is ready to be melted.

The Last Ofthe Tuileries.

The unanimity with which the French
 Chamber has voted for the demolition of all that remains of the Tuileries will be contrasted with theIr prompitude in vot- ing, year ago, for the restoration of the famous Tennis Court at Versailles All monarJhial buildings are doomed; those that have democratic traditions are 10 be renovated. The Palace of the Tulleries belongs neither to the one class nor the other; for if il was the scene of Catherine de Medicis' fete, if the Citizen King hved there in his simple state, if the flag of the Bonapartes long waved over the Pavilion de FHnrologe, II was no less a monument of revolution, of popular outbreaks, the murder of the Swiss Guard. the expulsion Of Charles x. and Louis Philippe, the communists excesses of 1871. There IS something ridiculous in these methods of strengthening the Republic. Is France of her past? Is she anxious to prove that before Sedan she had no free dom, no renown, that she IS thus remoy- lng every landmark of her history

LOOSE CHARGES

The death of K. Nj. Wilson, of San Francisco, in the pest house of Tucson. some few months ago, has given rise to distorted accounts othismalady and treat ment, in the California newspapers, which we deem it our duty 10 notice. It has been charged by the Plumas National, and reiterated by the Sonora, Tuolumne county, Union Democrat, that Wilson was taken with the measles while on the train, and m Tucson was transferred to an old shanty used as pest house and died from cold, exposure and want of at tention, and was likewise robbed of S2oo in mcney, diamond pin and other valu- ables-
 Such an array of falsehoods are rarely compressed in so brief a paragraph. There is no doubt about the character of the disease, forrwo cases, one light type of varioloid and the other fatal case of small pox, are directly traoeable to him, Wilson IS reported to haze been in an in ;oaioated 5 Gondiii3}R Si} HgOR his aFh RfF55r F5r questionable reputation, who forsook him when he was taken in charge by the health officers. The pest house is good and comfortable building, and the care was good and attentive As to the rob bery, if such occurred, why have no steps been taken 10 prove it and bring the thiefto justice?
 These matters were brought 10 the at tention of the late grand jury, and after taking evidence in the case they found there were no grounds upon which to base even a suspicion that any Of the charges were true, and by common con sent gave no further notice to Il. How such senseless reports ever found their way into California newspapers Is not known, but that they do not bear any re- ldtion to the truth Is very easily demon strated 10 any one who will take the trouble 10 inquire al all into the facts oi the case.

AFTER LONG YEARS.
Marriage of a Ma. Whose Suit was Rejected
 Forty-eignt Years Ago.

Marriage Of a Man Whose SuiI was fseJecloo
 Forty-eight Years Ago.
 The particulars of a case wherein hc- ton IS discounted have recently come to light. A romance in real life, in which the nrst act was played nearly fifty years ago, has just been brought to a happy termination by the union forever of two fond hearts, which a cruel fate had sepa- rated by a distance or I.SOo miles for half century, lacking two years. Forty eight years ago. John Saunders, one Of one of the wealthiest cattle kings of Mon- tana, who was then a poor youth, with nothing to recommend hIm but a spOlless reputation, a brave heart, and love for the beautiful and pure, became enamOred of a Kentucky belle, whose father was a rich man. His tenderness was recipro- catcd, but the parent of the young lady refused his consent to the marriage, and was ineXorable. Young Saunders was powerless to change the old mans mind, and was too honorable 10 press his suit in a household where his presence was unwelcoTe. He, therefore, sought an in terview with the girls parent, who for the twenty-third and last time told him to abandon all hope of marriage as far as hls daughter was concerned, as the difference in their social positions was an insur- mountable barrier.
 "How much are you worth?' asked the young lover
 'I could transfer my property into a million dollars, cash" was the naughty reply.
 'Fery well" answered young Saunders, ''to-morTow morning leave for the West to carve out a fortune, and when can size up to your million dollars l will return and clam my bride, for l know she will be true"
 The young man kept his promise af;er inamorata, and with a small outfit struck out bravely for the Western Territories. Since that time forty-eight years have elapsed, during which, with varying sue cess, he has dipped into numerous enter prises from the British line 10 Sonora. He came to Montana in the early days and embarked in the cattle business with a firm of Helena, with such remarkable success that the firm now own nearly 20, 900 head on the Teton. Absu. a month ago, Saunders figured up his assets, con cluded he was worth a cool million, and immediately left for Kentucky. He found the love of his young days waiting for him confident and hopeful of his fral arrival. The two were married with as httle cere mony as possible, and expect to be suffi ciently happy for the remainder of their lives to compensate them for long years of hope deferred and separation. They arrive in Butte this evening and take rooms at the St. Nicholas, and, after a short visit, will proceed to their new home in the Teton Valley, where ihe groom is greatly respected Butte, NJ T.. Inter Mountain.

If copper or lead is present in the ores, in the form of soluble salts, it can be leached off to great extent by boiling water being poured on the pulp and al- lowed to percolate few hours before pouring on the hyposulphate solution.

TIE veto of the Chinese bill by Pres dent Arthur, although rot entirely un- expected, has produced feeling of ex- cited indignation throughout the Pacific coast. To those who have learned from experience the evils of the presence of these people, the reasons for the veto seem frivolous in the extreme and are accepted only as such. The promptness with which the California Senators have renewed the measure, shorn of some of it's features that were objectionable to the President, may result in a partial solution of the trouble, temporarily, but unless some steps of permanent relief are soon inaugurated, trouble and blood shed are inevitable. Without entering into the merits of the question of pro- hibiting Chinese immigration, proper regard should be given to the almost unanimous wish of the people of the Pacific coast upon a matter which con- cerns them only.

 THE official discussion upon the arrest of General Carr by General Wilcox reads like an attempt to carry water on both shoulders. In our judgment, un- instructed m the mysteries of military jurisprudence, which appears to be past finding out, if the case warranted the language of the decision, it demanded a rigid investigation. 1.-the case did not demand an investigation the language of the War Department was wholly un- called fc-. As it is it did not hurt Carr and it let Wilcox down of his high horse easy. We should judge that even in the army it is hard for a man at all times to conceal his contempt for an incompte tent superior in rank.

THE building of the Tucson and Gulf of California railroad, which is now an assured fact, and the opening up Of the
 rich terra incognita southwest of Tue son to the gulf renders it absolutely necessary that correct boundary sur vey he made between Arizona and Son. ora. The boundary line established in 1854 is purely imaginary over large part of the distance. The surveyors, ID running the line, erected a moAument about ten miles north of the thirty-frst parallel, at the thirty-fourth degree of longitude west from Washington. They then returned to Tucson, and took the old travelled route through to the Col orado, where they selected convenient spot and erected another monument and called the line surveyed between the two monuments. Between the points named not a stake or mark exists to designate the boundary, and as the great mineral

 inc spirit perturbed and in a state of unrest. The physical condition and the material surroundings may have q strong tendency to disturb our equanimity and to exasperate our feel ings; but We are apt to bear in mind that the scolding never did anybody any good, and withal grows to be very uDy comfortable to the party who indulges in it. Inappropriate to anybody, scold- ing appears most hateful in parents and ministers. Sent to be dispensers of kind ness and love to those with whom they are more especially associated, it is hor- rible to see gall distilled instead of charity that blesses both parties Scold- ing turns a household into pandemon- ium, and a church into lnquisitiun.

 LET us not be too anxious to assist pupils out of their difficulties; for by SC doing we deprive them of the great ben eft to be derived from educatiOn,-the power to think. In our haste to advance or in our mistaken kindness, we really lnhict great unkindness. Let us re- quire students to struggle alone and over come their difficulties for themselves. It is much better for them to work days and even weeks on difficult point. question or subject, than it is for the teacher to tell them, or even to suggest to them, the solution before they have exerted the individual self effort. We should learn ito make haste slowly" for just here is it especially true, that great haste makes poor speed. Mental discipline, and not knowledge is the great desideratum of education.-Exchange.

THE water question for Tucson seems to be pretty nearly settled. A fountain head of inexhausiiDle supply has been secured, and men of capital stand ready 10 place water in the streets of Tucson within three months from this date. The manner in which they propose fur nishing a supply inspires confidence in them, and hope that the great deside- ratum will speedily be furnished. or thelr ability 10 do this there is no doubt, and Ii is to be hoped that no obstruction will b- placed in their way. Tucson wants water, and must have it, and in TO stinted quantity. With an abundant water supply the city will soon present an appearance ofsemi tropical beauty un- surpassed anywhere in the Territory. Let the water come.

IF present methods of educating the sensibilities be judged by their results, they are far from what they should be. Rowdyism, in all its types, which IS but the expression of native forces not eI- pended iu right direction, because of improper restraint, is but an index to their defects. The relation of emotional activity to states of the nervous system the dependence of this upon food, light, exercise, warmth, etc-when this is properly understood and acted upon, a better order of society will be induced. What we term the moral order of society implies but a strict regularity of moral forces correlated to, and dependent upon, vital and physical forces. It is the true relationship of things we need to learn.
 From the great book of Nature, Gods book, may be learned the principles of justice, wisdom and truth.
