The Recent Services mt DIR. Reads
Church.

The series OF sermons preached by the
Rev. MIR. Drew, OF Chase City, Mecklen-
burg. commencing with Sunday, january
eth. was closed on "Wednesday night by II
most impressiye discourse on /. John, w.,
s.. God Is Love-" These sermons were
especially worthy OF attention for their
clear and full expression and enforcement
of fundamental religious truths; spoken,
evidently, from the most heartfelt conVic-
ton OF their supreme importance, ana
heard by large congregations, in when
were representatives OF oil religious de-
nominations, and very many who were not
members OF any church. The impression
made uDon these audiences was evidenced
on every occasion by the deep hush OF 81
lent attention. almost painful In MS IN
tenslty: by the countenances OF some eX-
pressing their satisfying Joy in the hopes
OF the Gospel so earnestly and persuasiVely
enforced: and by the tearfulness OF others,
which had in it as much OF the happiness
of hone revived as OF grief for unfaifhiul-
ness remember ed. =,
A very noteworthy characteristic OF
these discourses was the crystal ciearness
with which the doctrines OF the Gospel
were almost forced upon recognition ana
acknowledgment. This being the more re-
markable as the vivid and active imagina-
ton of the preacher brought to the service
of his theme a luXuriance OF Illustration,
which with many speakers too often oD-
scures the truth by excess OF ornament,
but was here. with no remembered point
of exception, always help to the logic oi
the head while strengthening the hold
upon the emotions Of the heart.
What shall be the permanent results OF
this preaching upon the congregations VINO
heard the sermons must as yet be largely
matter OF hope; but we feel assured as TO
Mr.. Drew himself that he has been sofully
welcomed in the hearts OF pastor and peo-
pie OF Grace.Street church, and many
Others with them, and has so largely added
TO their stores OF religious thought and
feeling as TO make It certain that hereafter
he will ever find in our city large circle
Of grateful and attached friends, and out
side Of these few or none to "makc them
selves strange unto him."

The silver Crop.


The great Bonanza King mine, which
was discovered by citizen of Los An
geles. and is partly owned in this city,
appears to be developing production
Of silver that is most gratifying. The
superintendent of the mine, Mr.. Thos
Ewing, in communication to the Calico
Print, under date Of September 7th,
speaks Of this mine as follows.
The Bonanza King Consolidated Min
ing Company mine continues to look
splendid and to yield its usual amount
OF ore and bullion. In fact The bottom Of
the mine never looked so well as now.
At the intermediate drift between levels
four and five the ore body is seventeen
feet in thickness; grade of ore $50 per
ton. The deep winze south is now down
seventy feet below 4th level and in S400
ore. The No. 2 winze south, lis feet
further south, just connected with 4rh
level in beautiful body high grade ore.
The extreme north Wine is now As feet
below 4th level and never looked so well
as now. The center OF the mine is sim
ply immense. Fourth intermediate is
opened l25 feet in the finest ore body |
ever saw. In tbs drift and winze can
show any man 5000, 900. can take
out $40, 900 u day with eight or ten men.
The dumps contain half million dol
lars The ore house at mine, the ore
bin at mill are all full. The mill run
but 204 days for August, produced Sf4,r :
500. The mill is running beautifully
now, producing 81, per day. Ten
stamps, dry crushing-a record never
equalled anywhere. Total product for
year SO far is S444, $50. 1 predict three
fourths Of a million for 1883. If any
mine in the west can beat it am de-
lighted. We have had trouble with
pump at water works, the cause of loss
Of time in July and August.
1t is interesting to note that the IL
Illustrated HERALD, issued before this re-
port of Superintendent Ewing was made,
placed the yield of this mine at 500, 900
for 1888. Now it appears that the mill
is turning out over $1,000 per day, and
has turned out in seven months Si44, 800,
and is likely to reach S750,000 for the
year. The readers Of the HERALD can
see by this contrast that the estimates of
this journal are within the real limits in
regard to this mine. The same may be
said in regard to the King mine, which
was set down at 100000 per annum in
the HERALD estimates, but from recent
figures it is evident that the mine will
yield not less than s50O,0OO this year.
These statements show that there is
nothing rose-colored or misleading in
the HERALD's estimates. The silver
crop appears to be immense and con-
slant, and must be added to other crop
reports toconvey any accurate idea of
the productions of the country.
The Sixth Congressional District of
California is now one of the great silver
producing portions of the world and will
hereafter be known as much by the
name of the .'Silyer Land as it is now
known as the land of the orange and the
vine.

Treed by a Grizzly.

On Monday last, our well and favora-

Buffer, while angling for speckled beau
ties in San Antonio Canon, was fright

intimate friends, by the sudden appear
ance of monster grizzly bear, which
made straight at him, and showed every
evidence Of longing for Canibal
feast. Bruin did not manifest the slight
est inclination to spare our friend, even
after George had tried to bluff her,

her fondness for gentlemen out Of town.
All attempts to frighten the brute away

speedily convert Washington into fish

some means OF immediate escape, which
fortunately stood near him in the form

Building Operations.

1t was our pleasure yesterday to visit
the site of the new Childs Opera House,
on Main street, and witness the rapid
progress Of the work. The rear walls
are being rapidly laid, and the ring of
the trowel is constant and musical. Mr..
Samuel Heilneris delivering 400, 900 brick
for this edifice, and is now lighting the
fires under 100000 more, to go into the
walls of the same. Theseitems show the
vast extent of the building operations of
the city, which is rapidly changing from
a city Of adobe and wood to one of iron
and brick. When all the walls of the
Opera House are in course Of erection it
is intended to have l50, 900 brick laid in
a day. That shows what can be done
in our city under ordinary circumstances,
but by adding the electric light the
work can be doubled. The brickmakers
are making arrangements to supply the
demand for building during the winter,
whether it rains or shines. They will
have several millions OF brick, ready to
use at any time, so that there may be no
delay in building operations during the
rainy season. This welcome intelligence
will be good news to those who intend
to build in the winter season.
