A new process for working low grade
ores. discovered by one E. Derbec, will
be Of ines,imable value to the mining
interest. il it is really all that it is rep
resented TO be. The first public tIiHl Of
the process is said to have been made
in the presence OF a number Of persons
in San Francisco q few days ago. md
the results Of the working proved the
validity OF the claims for the process,
namely: simplicity. perfection and
cheapness in working; iuexperSiycnsss
Of n p!aat, n constant pro !uciion Of
precious mentals and each metal pro-
duced plrateiy, aud in a form rendy
for market. II Air. Derbec is neither

tiic enthusiasm or other distTactiug
cause, and it is found that II correct d,.
ngnosis OF this wonderful case has
been maze, he may safely be set down
as the greatest diseoYersr of the age.

diet Of ,polenta. (mush) and cheese, and
to be fine, hardy specimens of man
hood, carrying great weight with ease.
The East India coolielives on little but
ter with his rice and pulse, but his eli
mate is very different from the bracing
air of the Alps, fros. y air that anywhere
else would be supposed to create de-
mand for the heaviest animal food.
There is considerable (vegetables) oil in
mush, and eheese furnishes albumen;
So that in this simple diet are combined
