THE ATLANTA COMPANY.
Its New Works Started Up-A Rich
Strike and Very Promising Prop


erty.
"A gentleman who has just arrived
from Atlanta states that the new 10
horse power hosting works of the
Atlanta Mining Company, which were
started up on the 1st of December,
are running smoothly. They are Of
sufficient capacity to sink 1900 feet,
and cost $4,000 in Chicago.
Two or three days after the start
ing of the works a new strike was
made on the 300-foot level of the
Monarch mine of the Atlanta Com
pany, which promises to develop into
small bonanza. The ore is ruby
silver, and assays from $500 to $780,
600. The extent of the body is UNI
known.
The Atlanta Company's mines have,
under the management of Superin-
tendent w. H. Petit, been thoroughly
trimmed and opened up during the
past two or three years, and are now
in good shape to resume yielding.
The two lO-stamp mills of the COM
pany-the Greenback and Monarch
will be overhauled this winter and put
in shape for good run next summer
and fall, when a large force Of men
will be at work extracting ore. The
past summer, with only II men, ore
was extracted, which yielded $4,000.
The Atlanta Company is an Indian
apolis corporation, but no stock is fol
sale, the owners having purchased il
for permanent investment.
The Atlanta ledge has all the char
acterstics of the Comstock, both as to
width and quantity Of ore. The Mon
arch ore yields bullion that is worth
$3.50 per ounce.

From the Bridgeton Chronicle.

Cumberland and Salem country
farmers have certainly struck q
bonanza If all Is true reported by
the investigating committee on the
mari beds situated in the western
borders of Cumberland and Salem
counties. All the owners of the
land In that section are especially
iubilaDt and listen with open~mouth
ed wonder 10 everything new they
hear about it. The description of the
new mari beds by Mr.. /. L. Thomp-
son published In Wednesday,
Vineland Journal, has set many a
heart to beating high with hope
and expectation Of what awaits
US in the speedy future. "On Mr..
Ayars' farm near Shiloh" says Mr..
Thompson, tive found sight worth
seeing. The mari was located about
twelve or fourteen feet below a
layer Of sand and gravel, the fret
stratum ofan orange color and about
twenty inches deep, the consistency
of ordinary bar soap. Then came
layer Of black substance apparently
composed of vegetable matter, and
of the same thickness OF the first.
Below this is a solid bed of shell
mari to the depth of twelve or four
teen feet" This she'll mari is
believed to be the richest ever found
anywhere, and 1t is amazing how
the value of property has already
increased invalue about that section.
Property that would not have
brought more Ithan twelve and q
half dollars per acre has gone up to
5000. The discovery of this mari
was accidental. A laborer was dig
ging a ditch when he discovered
some strange shells of the sea which
set hm to wondering how they got
there and he began to dig deeper
unit! he turned up q quantity OF
the richest mari, Another deposit
was discovered where the swine
had been roofing In ravlne, and a
rich black dirt was noticed. Hund-
reds of tons have already been taken
from this place and If the N. ]. s,
Il. R.wiil construct branch to these
pits it will be a good day for South
Jersey and at no distant day, even
our pineclad barrens and sandy
wastes may be made to bloom with
verdure.

One Way OF ''Ra1s1nE the W1nd.'
N. Y. Letter to New Orleans Picayune.
On Saturday gentleman received .
dispatch from his wife, at his place of
business down town, asking him to
bring her some money for special pur-
pose. AS it was after bank hours when
the messenger arrived, he drew check
for SITS and got friend to cash 1t. Then
thrusting the roll Of bills hastily into his
vest pocket he jumped into stage. He
had not been seated very long when .
man next to him exclaied: 81 have been
robbed" and called to a policeman. The
individual on the other side Immediately
asserted that he had seen the robbery
committed, and that the money would
be found In the brokers' left vest pocket.
By this time the policeman appeared
aud the amount and denomination of
the bills in the brokers pocket were
accurately described by the man who
professed to have been robbed. OF
course there was nothing to do but take
the party to police headquarters, but on
the way the man who had given the
alarm and the one who had "seen" the
theft committed, made many excuses
aud finally slipped away. The broker
was recognized at headquarters and it
was plain enough that he had been
spotted by professional thieves, who had
hoped the policeman would divide the
spoils with them and let the matter drop.
This is one way of getting money Tor

A correspondence Is going on between
Representative Blackburn (exConIed-
erate), Of Kentucky, and General Bur-
bridge exUnion officer, Of the same
State, in relation TO certain things done
by both during the war, which are not
regarded by many people as greatly to
the credit Of either. blackburn alleges
that General BuI bridge was unnecessar-
lily and barbaT0usly severe in many Of
his acts, which ''put him beyond the
pale Of civilized warfare, in the twilight
Of barbarism, or worse. in the domain of
Actuallcrima." Burbridge defends less him
self less rhetorically: ha cites instruc-
tioDs given to him by General Sherman
and other superlors "ts hunt down every
guerilla aud robber in Kentucky
quotes letters from Montgomery Blair,
Salmon P. Chase, Robert j. Brecken-
ridge, ID. NJ. Key and others, approving
of bis military conduct, and closes by an
allusion levelled at Blackburn to the
alleged introduction of yellow fever
clothing by rebels into northern cities,
at once period Of the war. Whether ths
controversy will end In an ''affAir Of hon
