1t is thought that the artesian we'll soon to
be sunk at Red Bank, will reach water much
nearer the surface than at Asbury Park, on
account of the rocky strata below which the
water cannot sink being there at much less
depth than at the latter place. However this
may be, the water commissioners have award
ed the contract for its construction to the
Southwark Foundry and Machine company,
and work will be commenced as soon as the
town commissioners approve the contract. 1t
is hoped that the water supply from this
source alone will be sufficient for the needs Of
the town The artesian we'll at Ocean Grove
is said to yield from GO, 900 to 10000 gallons
daily which as the Red Bank Standard says,
would be sufficient to allow 20 gallons to each
person at that place.

the extracting Of gold frsm region itself
hardly fl for settlement, would not be much
about which to lament il comparative good
was gained by its being thus stopped. This
good | doubt very much. Hydraulic mining
was perempt0rily stopped on the ground
that it ruined the valley laud and also the
rivers. That our valleys have been and are
suffering from mountain debris under the
form Of sand aud sediment, filing up She
rivers, covering the adjoining land and
Threatening the latter with destruction, is an
uudenisble fact. But it csnnot be expected
that California would be su exception TO the
rule, as long SIS valleys will be tbs natural
receptacle Of the waters, sand, sediment,
debris Of all kinds, carried down by the force
of 0 physical law that no barrier, no in
junction can stop. It is irresistible 1t is
eternal.
Rnin will continue to precipitata lis waters
on the rugged and barren hills Of cur noun
tsins, carrying down to the cresks the disin-
tegra.ed substances Of the soil raised up and
pulverizsd by frost. How can that be
stopped? the mountains will have first 20
be replanted; the forests that held up the
snow, preventing its melting too quickly, will
have TO be replaced law viii have also to
be passed compelling the plantiog OF grape
aud fruit land il clover to keep the snrf8ce
from teisg washed and carried away TO the
valleys; mountain rO>ds abolished, on &C.
count If the immense amount Of debris car.
red down to the rivers below through them.
Ali that will have 20 be done to make the
stopping Of hydraulic mining amount to any
thiag.
1t is reslly the hight of imprudence on thu
part Of the people Of the Valleys who are suf-
feriug so much from mountain debris, to ad-
wise, suggest, encourage the planting Of the
grape IN our mountains. l dare say that if
this county had as many thousands of acres
of hillside land in cultivation as Nspa snd
Sonoma counties have ia grapes, the guam
tty Of sand and sediment washed Gown from
the cultivated surface by our winter rains
would fully reach the amount of dsbris from
the hydraulic mines closed up by Judge
Sawyer. The stopping of hydraulic mining
will not save our rivers from being filed, and
neither secure our valleys from food but
one of the hers that laid the golden eggs will
have been fIicasseed" by the people of the
valleys prosperous section Of country will
have been laid waste; an important industry
done away with; the revenue of the State
diminished, and still will the waters of our
streams continue to be muddy and the val.
leys liable to be flooded every winter.

TURKISH Co.'s AND TIME.-One of the
chief difficulties in trading in Constantine.
pie arises from the currency, or, more
strictly, the lack of currency. Very few
persons, l believe, if any, are masters of
the question of practical Turkish finance
There are francs of different values and
piasters OF different sorts; and no definite
amount Of any coin is equal to any partic.
ular amount OF another coin. 1t is q con-
tinual riddle, from which the perrlexed
and batiied stranger appeals to his guide, who
makes out the money by some mysterious
combinations, bat never succeeds in max
ing the process permanently clear. To add
TO the trouble, change now is very scarce,
so that it is quite likely that the ticket.

refuse your money or enforce large dis

who abound along the streets, you have an
