ROLLER SKATING,

Now that Dlon,c>. like the rest ut

pleasnreable and exciting Amusement, of

expert at the business says that roller

the waltz, and that the delightful sensation

and the proximity of handsome com
panion, whose light and lithcsomc figure

with your own to the measured time Of /.
dreamy waltz is not to be compared with
ordinary pleasure. This experience is after
one has learned to skate. While learning.
however, the sensations arc not SO enchant~

sEOw Carlisle Kept His Word

Very few men would do as Car lisle has and give up a Senatorsbip for the sake of helping friend. Car lisle might have been elected in Kentucky last week. He refused to allow 1t, because he promised Black
 burn before the Speakershlp contest begtn that if Blackburn would with
 draw from that he should have the field clear for the Senatorship. Car
 lIsIe has kept his word like a King. Twice he had the prize within repch, and each time he telegraphed an a6- solute refusal. As between Black burn and Williams the former Is preferable. But in the Senate l am afrald that Blackburn will be unlike the fierce young Kentuckian we have enjoyed in the House. Blackburn is a genuine illustration of a ''Southern gentlemen, sir" He was a cavalry
 man ln the rebel army, and still eff fleets clothes cut in military style. His face is smooth save for a long dropping mustache, and his eyes, once bright, are now a little sug- gestive of the good old Bourbon of which Kentucky IS so proud. But be IS hearty, whole -souled man. The ladies love him, and he Is very gallant. Mrs. Blackburn I have never seen here, though his d tug htsr comes on almost every winter. To every one who knows him he is simple "Jo," wailo he is hearty and free with ali. It IS pleasant to see him take his way through the corri- dors of the capital and see how gen
 erally the crowd recognizes and sa- lutes him. You seldom seem him on the floor. He cares nothing for routine business. Once in a while he gets interested in something and

Mining Not Stopped

It must not be supposed because
 the debris case has been decided
 against the miners that mining is to
 cease in California by any means.
 It only means the hydraulic mines,
 and not all of them; for there are some in some parts of the State that can run long time yet. The quartz mines, which employ the bulk of the miners, will continue to be worked, and indeed quartz mining will be more closely looked to and the indus try widen. for many mining men will turn their attention to i. who have been engaged in the hydraulic branch. Hydraulic mines employ comparatively few miners. As far as actual labor is concerned, one big quartz mine wants more miners than dozen gravel mines.
 The mining inteSsts of the State have received a set back by the de bris decision, and the bullion pro duct of 1884 will be materially de- creased. But more attention is be- ing paid to quartz and drift mining, and yet more will be from this on It is to be hoped, therefore, that this, with the opening of a new region in the southern part of the State, will ultimately bring our bullion product up to it's old standard. At all events California will continue to be lea d. ing mining State. Although this blow falls heavily on many persons 1t IS better not to consider 1t as an obstacle to progress. The subject need not be considered'l too hastily, for 1t is as well to make the best of what Is an unprecedented 1 and most unfortunate occurrence. From the first it was seen to be a matter that the courts must settle, and now that the decision has come, while the decree must be complied | with, wisdom indicates that the most | must be made of such resources as remain within our reach.-Mining x Press.

makes speech. That is always
 enough to draw a crowd. Blackburn can talk well. Perhaps he is little
 impetuous and frothy, but always interesting. Simply as a presiding officer he would make a good speak CT, and you know he came within a few votes of it in 1877. In the eve niRg he Is always ready for a lark. Last winter you could generally find Proctor Knott, Phil. Thompson and few other choice spirits at his rooms enjoying q quiet game of cards with plenty of sugar and whisky. But over in the Senate he will be an entirely different man. You won't hear any more of Black burn after the 4th Of March, 1885. His wit, his swift weapon of attack in parliamentary contests, will go for nothing there.-Washlngton Corr. Troy Times,

Mining Improvements.

Mining has been placed on such a basis that anything that tends to di
 rectly or indirectly lessen the cost of production IS eagerly adopted, not as passing fashion, but with the earn est purpose of keeping abreast of the rImes. In this country we are con stantIy at work devising means for improving the mechanical appliances of mining. Hoisting and pumping machinery, cages, cars, pans, mills and all such things are being con tinually simplifed and improved.
 In Europe thu same tendency is apparent. Here the improvements are not only in the general design of machinery, but in its details or con- struction or erection. A noticeable feature in Belgium, for instance, is in the reduction of the dead weight in coal tubs and cages. This is every

 1t has tendency to increase the action of the heart, causing palT6- tatioD. It IS a fruitful source of in- digestion. It has decided tendency to produce catarrh in the head. This, it IS said, arises from the fact that a cigarette beng much shorter than a cigar, more of the smoke finds; it's way into the mouth and nasal or gans, a very much larger perceutage of smoke being enha1ed by the smoker from a cigarette than from a cigar.
