BRISTOL ITEMS.
From the Times Of March 4,

The first good round American divi-
dend ever declared in Bristol District Is
that by the Bristol s. NJ. Co., of 50 per
share, payable TO the stockholders imme-
diately, with a heavy working surplus
carried over in the treasury. This speaks
volumes for the energy and push dis
played by the Bristol Company, who after
much struggling have during the last few
months cleared enough money to pay for
the cost Of the mill and machinery, which
amounted to $120, 900, and places them on
a dividend paying basis, and have in the
Mayfower to-day the finest piece of prop
erty on the coast.
We were informed by Superintendent
McNally OF the Day that operations are be-
ing vigorously pushed on the lower levels
getting everying in shape preparatory to
the regular extraction of ore for ship
ment to the reduction works here, which
will be started up soon. The coal con-
tract has been given for two years to good
responsible parties who have already men
and teams en- route from Eureka and will
commence putting in coal at an early date.
The ledge in the Loro Vale was struck
yesterday by q drift from the bottom Of
winze No. l.. Work will be pushed ahead
by drift 80 feet south on vein, connection
made with surface and working shaft put
down at that point.
G. r. Barton showed US last week some
fine samples of black sulphurets from his
mine at Jackrabbit. He informs us that
everything is looking promising for the
opening up Of a body Of high grade ore ere
long.
Bristol Is slowly and gradually coming
to the front. and as soon as the Day 8. M.
Co. start up we have every hope Of seeing
that company loom up as we'll as the Bris-
toll 8. NJ. Co. on q dividsnd-paying basis.

Terrible Scenes at the Amelia
Paiaee-rrying TO ward or Spec.
tiers.
The ghostly racket still continues in the
Amelia Palace. says the Salt Lake Tribune,
confirming the report that some terrible
crime was committed by the Church in
that building. Brother Taylor. the other
day, while washing his hands, noticed the
~drippings sparkle and glisten and vivid
flashes OF lightning shot along the win
dows like as II q great storm was raging
without, when, in fact. the sky was clear
and not o cloud to be seen on the horizon.
The great windows shake like aspens, the
chandeliers swing to and fro, moved by
unseen hands, while the tables 20 fitting
around the room as though moved by
ghostly banda. The days In the
Palace are made hideous by strange
and unearthly sounds, while the nights
arc simply terrible. BY some these
strange things are attributed to the ghost
OF Apostle Hyde, who was swindled out of
the Presidency OF the Church, while others
contend that Apostle Pratt has returned to
assert mis- rights to the position. John
iaylor Is a usurper, all know, and when be
signined MS Intention Of taking the Palace
ne was warned repeatedly that misfortune
would befall him. Needless, he went ahead,
and calamity has succeeded calamity in
swift succession. The loss Of his son, the
loss OF the seat to Cannon followed, and
now the Kingdom is tottering on the brink.
DE may cover the Palace with lightning
RODS three deep, but the ghost will have
us way. No lightning-rod was ever yet
invented that was proof against an irate
ghost.
The end is not yet, for Taylor Is q usur-
per and the ghost means business.

Tennyson's New Poem.

1.-THE Charge Of the Heavy Brigade"
the most recent lines Of Alfred Tennyson,
Poet Laureate OF England, was telegraphed
across the ocean and appeared in the lead
ing New York papers only about a week
ago. 1t is, OF course, q classic production,
Is must be all the finished works OF the
celebrated author. Still, in the Judgment
OF competent critics. we feel safe In pre-
dieting IL will be considered greatly in
ferior to the poem for which it is intended
evidently to be q companion ~piece-"The
Charge OF the Light Brigade" Had the
former appeared first. 1t would have been
received with much more favor by the gen.
eral reader, but appearing now forestalled
by a very similar and so much more
spirited poem, Ii will be read with
full relish by those only land
they are very few who have
not read 1.-The Charge OF the Light
Brigade" The themo selected by the
great poet, especially so on account OF its
name, is unfortunate. We do not take to
reading it kindly, apprehendipg that it ia
an old story, and not being sure but the
author, having made n masterpiece Of
the kind, might not succeed so well in exc
cutting another SO nearly like it in design.
There is also a seemingly unpoetic awk-
wardness in the suggestion that 81 heavy"
may be substituted for eight" The lat
ter term is poetry OF itself; the former Ia
poetic, but made so In the mind OF a
master.
