Stocks.
Yesterdays decline in stocks was


Yesterdays decline in stocks was
due to the fact that barren quartz
was encountered in the drift run
ming west from the 5000 station OF
Union. It was all that could be
expected at that point and simply
meant that the outer covering Of
tho hanging wall had been reached,
but not the wall itself. Tits ex-
actly similar in formation (but q
trifle better in assays) to the for
nation which laid over the vein on
tho 1900. The bears seized the
situation and spread the report that
the vein had been reached and it
was barren. The fact is that the
vein has not been reached at all nor
the clay seam which defines the
vein. There is no cause for de-
cline. only q number of timid hold
ers have been frightened into sell
ing their stock for the bears to take
in.
The Chronicle Of last evening has
the following:
The north-end crosscnt on the
5000 level is the only topic dis
cussed to-day. A Chronicle re-
porter's application for official in
formation produced oaly the fol.
lowing:
1.-THE drift in the Union cross
cut last night cut a stringer OF
quartz of no value
From outside sonrces-Ipon
which we rely-it is ascertained
that yesterday the crosscus en-
countered quartz poor staff. such
as was found east of the ledge on
the 1900 level. This morning the
crosscut had passed through about
four feet Of this material, which is
rather better than that found above.
The ledge itse.f had not yet beer
reached. A Burleigh only is bs-
ing used. With this hole nine feet
long IS kept ahead Of the drifters,
and presumably assays are
beng constantly made. This
is the only percentage
which "the game" has over the out
side payer. The stock broke badly
to day, but the opinion of the cool
est heads is that it will react sharp
~ before long. They say it Is al
most demonstrated that the east
wall Of the ledgs has maintained
its dip from the 1900 isbous As de-
grees); the vest wall went down a.
about 80; the probab lily is hat the
ore body, 10 feet wide on the 1900.
will be found to be about 80 feet
wide on the present level, ard they
decline to be frightened out OF their
stock Just yet. Most Of the miners
who came of the mine this morning
were buyers of the stock at the
early boards. They nigh: have got
it cheaper if they had waited, but
as one of them remarked, "I'm
satisfied; expected to have to pay
$12 foD Union. and I got it for 81. !"

The Traffic in Frogs Legs.

Those who have eaten frogs legs are
not disposed to make light of this de-
lectable dish or those who relish it.
1t will surprise many to know the eX-
tent to which the traffic in frogs legs
has been carried in Boston alone, where
more than two hundred dozen are call
ed for each day, while New York and
cities farther west call for even larger
supplies. In some portions of Maine
and Cape Cod, fishermen do quite Il
business in netting these "Dutch
nightingales,' as they are called, for
the Boston market. They are caught
in the early morning, when they are
giving their morning serenade, and a
good frog fisherman is said to be able
to capture fourteen or fifteen dozen q
day, which are sent, some alive and
some dressed ready for the table, to
the Boston markets, where they are
sold ut from forty to sixty cents a
dozen. The frog season is from June
to October, although July is the bust
est month. At Young's hotel, during
the month of July, eight dozen a day
are called for, served ether fried or
boiled. The meat, when dressed,
looks clean and wholesome, and, when
cooked, makes very delicious dish.
So all think who have overcome their
natural repugnance to these denizens
of the marsh sufficiently to feast upon
their fat hind legs.

the postmasters of the various post
offices to hold this fund in trust for
redemption. They are required to
make quarterly returns of the amounts
they may have on hand from this
source. At the time the regulation
was adopted it was questioned If the
department had any right to oblige the
postmasters to turn this fund over to
the department, and the issuance of
this new order is a virtual admission
that the department usurped power
that did not belong to it. As it now
stands, postmasters may place the de-
posts for keys on interest, the revenue
from which becomes a source of per
sonal income, which, in offices where a
large number of boxes are rented, will
amount to a considerable sum. This
is doubtless an unlOoked-fOr result OF
| Hatton's little scheme.

The Postal Notes.

The postal notes, in their present
form, cannot be said to he perfect
success. The Chicago banks have
signed an agreement not to re-
ceive them, on the ground that they
are so dark in color that the writing
can only be deciphered with great diff
GUILTY The notes are convenient for
the sending of odd sums below s., and
can be cashed within three months
from the last day of the month in which
they are issued. One of their disad-
vantages is the fact that they cannot
be duplicated, are made payable to the
bearer, and the sender is not assured
against their loss or destruction. One
safeguard against IA note being stolen
is the fact that the person who cashes
the note is required to receipt it. The
form and provisions of the note will
doubtless undergo some changes, which
will enhance its value and popularity
1t is too early to predict the failure OF
the notes, because the banks are averse
to receiving them. Already the number
issued compares very favOrably with
the issuance of money orders.

The following is the appraisal of the
Norwood Lumber company.in north
ern New York: Al ,49S acres of land.
valued at S92, 1873; timber privilege.
$1,000; three mills and fOrty-three
houses and stables, Sos, 635; lumber.
laths, shingles, etc, S159,5l0: camp
equipage, tools, haul horses, wagons,
etc, 81, I40; goods and store accounts.
SIS. pa, a total of SSl2, l62. Deduct
ing preferred claims to New York par
ties, S56, $50, and adding estimates of
lumber at present rates, leaves $780,
636 to satisfy the Trust Company in
debtedness of S3l2,743. This would
leave a balance of S52, 593 to the own
ers after paying all claims. The as
signee is confident that he can raise
the estimated amount if he can have
reasonable time.
At the probate court at st. Adams on
Tuesday of last week, Receiver Hendee
of the Vermont National bank pre-
scented a petition for the adjudication
of Lawrence Brainerd as insOlvent
debtor. The petition was brought on
behalf of Mr.. Brainerd's endorsement
of Barlow's paper. A hearing will be
held at the probate Office October 3.
Throwing Mr.. Brainerd into bankrupt
CIV will not tend to increase the chances
of Trust company depOsitOrs, but will
make more favorable outlook for de-
positors in the Vermont National bank.
F. l.. Brainerd, grocer, had an at
tachment put on his goods by Receiver
Rich of the Trust company Friday.
Three or four years ago Lawrence
Brainerd, who was then member of
the firm of F. l.. Brainerd Il Co., is
sued the firm paper to the amount of
$4,000 and put the most of it into the
Norwood Lumber company. Since
that time he has continued to pay in
terest on those notes, and neglected to
take them up. Lawrence Brainerd's
connection with this firm has been
practically, though not legally, sever
ed for something over Il year, but the
result of his course i'll regard to the F.
l.. Brainerd & Co. paper is now felt IN
the embarrassment of F. l.. Bralnerd.
He states that, aside from the demand
based on these notes, 5000 will pay all
his debts. Mr.. Brainerd has turned
over his property (value not to exceed
$4,000 and arranged the matter so that
he will continue his business without
further interruption. The partnership
with Lawrence Brainerd has been
egally dissolved. OF the S4O,OOO OF
paper mentioned $4,000 was held 10y
the Vermont National bank and the
rest by the Trust company.

Postmaster General Gresham has
issued a new order in the Louisiana
lottery case, the effect of which is to
make the original prohibitory order
applicable to all pOstmasters and post
offices. The original order was ad-
dressed only to the pOstmasters at New
Orleans and New York.
Officers of the postoffice department
express the opinion that the inadver-
tence of Congress in making the bill to
regulate pOstmasters' salaries go into
effect Immediately instead of October
/. the date fixed for the reduction OF
rates of postage, will cost the govern
ment a million and half in increased
salaries.
Reports have been received to the
effect that the peanut crop is total
failure throughout the Virginia. 1t is
| believed that not more than one-fourth
of an average crop will be made III
some sections, and that not enough
will be raised for seed next year. The
loss is estimated at S200,000. The
failure of the crop is owing to the
drought.
In view of the large excess of expen-
ditures of revenue on account of the
postal service, the Dominion govern
ment has decided that, for the present,
it would be impracticable to reduce the
rate of postage to a uniform rate with
that shortly to go into operation in the
United States. The revenue derived
from the postal service last year
amounted to S2,G22 900, the expendi-
ture being S2,456, 900, or 81 per cent.
over the revenue.
