CONCENTRATES.
.[From the Mining Review.l

The gold yield of Trinity Co., CAL,
will approach very nearly $1,000, 900
for the year 1884.
Tonquin, China, possesses mines of
gold, silver, mercury, antimony, TIN,
zinc and copper.
Clay is rarely found pure in nature.
1t is usually combined with silica, with
lime and iron, and often with other
bodies.
OF the sum Of $4G4,ooo, 900 in the
U. S. Treasury, $247, 900, 900 is held
to redeem gold and silver certificates.
Pure clay, the alumina of the chem
ists is absolutely infusible in the great
est heat to which we can subject it.
The coinage of gold by the U. S.
mints during the year 1884 exceeded
the production by at least $500. 900.
A vein or bed of mica has been dis
covered about four miles from the
Republic iron mine in Marquette Co.,
Michigan.
The red and purple varieties of
slate take their color from iron in the
form of peroxide-two parts OF iron
combined with three of oxygen.
The gold output of Victoria since
the discovery of placer gold in 1851
to the close of 1883 has aggregated
5I,4o4, 1903 ounces, worth 81 ,o28,o82,-
900.
The 9th level of the Calumet and
Hecla copper mine is still on fire. and
there seems to be no prospects of put
ting it out for some time to come.
Steam is being introduced in the
hopes Of smothering it out or at least
conhning it to the 9Th level.

The Prof expresses himself as salts
fled that the smelter will make an ex-
cellent showing as the ore here is par
ticularly adapted to the smelling pro-
cess of reductions, and if the trustees
can arrange togo right ahead he desires
to remain and prove the truth of his
assertion.
Owners of mines carrying galena are
now taxing out ore which will shortly
be hauled to the mill. OF dry ores a
sufficient quantity is accessible to last
an indefinite period.
We hope ere long TO chronicalize the
shipment of a goodly amount of bull
lion from this smelter, and if we are
not mistaken in the energy and will of
the trustees, we shall be able to so do.

Election inspectors.

In relation to the duties of election
inspectors, New York correspondent
says:
The law of New York, through pre-
cidents of thirty years, makes the elec-
ton inspectors judges of the fact and
the result OF the election. They pass
on the count and decide it, and their
report consists not of the ballots, as in
Pennsylvania, but of report IN which
the number of ballots are specified,
with one Of each sort filed by way Of
exhibit. When this is done, the ballots
are burned. Ii the law has been fol-
lowed, the ballots of last Tuesday have
already been burned, and nothing now

visors to meet at each county seat,

these returns. In this duty the courts
can interfere by mandamus to forbid
or to require the count of certain bal
lots. How far the character of ballots,
the evidence of miscount or the proof
of fraud can be opened in these pro-
ceedings is disputed. There is no
question that a clerical error. false
footings or the like can be corrected"

Logan have support about In the order
named. The second choice is wholly for
Lincoln. The Morrison bill, by putting lum-
Der and salt on the free list, would be very
disastrous to us. We had a taste of Cana
dian lumber trade during the reciprocity
treaty from 1854 to 1854. The impression
left by that experience would be very
bad in business under a free lumber pro-
vision. The passage of the bill would
depress prices for from four or five
years. to be followed by higher pr ces than if

We produce now annually ooO,OO0 900 feet,

Michigan. In salt, we produce 5000, 600
barrels annually. Our iron-mining interests
are greater in value than those of any other

Another Wealthy Mans Daughter
Enamored of Coachman.
An Alleged English Baronct Captures
the Affections OF al Detroit
GirI-The Flight and ...
Pursuit.

DETROIT, Mich, May 7.-Some time ago
the attention Of the family of C. J. Whitney,
the wealthy dealer in musical instruments in
this city and the proprietor of the Detroit
Grand opera house and the Standard theatre,
Chicago, was directed to the fact that Miss
Lillian, his 21-year-old daughter, was pay
Ing altogether unwarranted attention to tine
eoachman. That individual was a good
looking, broad-chested, tall Englishman, aged
about 3s. He was glib of tongue, and con-
veyed the impression that he was tolerably
well educated, as he claimed to be. Miss
Lillian was frequently absent on long drives
alone with the coachman, but was always
ready with explanations, and hence sus-
picions, if any were at this time entertained,
were allayed. The young lady had always
been SO exemplary in her conduct that
q suspicion of the real truth did not
dawn upon any one. Fearing de-
lection, however, Lillian discontinued her
daily rides with the coachman, and instead
met him upon the street when he was not en-
gagged upon the carriage box. This speedily
| came to the knowledge of Fred Whitney, and
the coachman was thereupon discharged
But he had used his time so
well that the daughter was completely
fascinated, and they continued up to
a few days ago to meet clandes-
timely. Friday afternoon last Lillian went
out for walk and did not return. She had
just drawn the monthly stipend allowed her
by her father as pin-money, and the fears Of
the family were aroused that she had flown
from the paternal roof. 1t was learned
that the Englishman had disappeared
quietly day or two before. In hot haste
lie. J. Whitney posted off to Chicago
while young Fred secured quartet Of
detectives and instituted search in thi:
and surrounding cities The detectives
traced theeoachman to Toledo, and with thi.
clew they found no trouble in tracing Mis-
Whitney to the same city, she having gone
there direct. Mr.. Whitney Immediately

Why Churchill Resigned.

LONDON, May THE sensation caused by
the withdrawal of Lord R randolph Churchill
from the Conservative association continues
The facts regarding the difficulty are
now learned to have been as
follows. Churchill after becoming
chairman of the Conservative Union
association, sighted and ignored the marquis
of Salisbury's Central Conservative commit
tee; he claimed that the council of the union
had control of the entire Conservative party,
and it had become caucus; he appointed an
executive committee, consisting Of himself,
Mr.. Gorst and Sir Henry Drummond Wolff.
The association, however, adopted resolu-
ton that the council and the central commit
tee should work in harmony. Churchill
looking upon this as note of censure, re-
tired from the association. The CORE
spondence between Churchill and Salisbury
Is so acrimonious that reconciliation is inn
