THE OWNING RoD.-We find the fol-

lowing in the Virginia New Enterprise:
During the past two years Richard Kir-
man, of Carson. formerly of this city, has
been engaged with his brOther-in-law, Mr..
Nora, in searching for a rich mine which
Morals divining rod " revealed the exist
ence of in the western base of Mount David
son: They ran a long tunnel, but not
striking what they were after they tried at
another point, mile or so distant, where
the magical mine indicator" said there
was rich gold ledge, although none show
on the surface. They have sunk a shaft
about 140 feet, and last week cut into a
very rich vein. Nearly the whole bottom
of the shaft is said to be in the rich ore the
width of which has not been ascertained,
but all concerned in that and adjoining
claims feel highly elated over the prospect
Work in the vein is suspended for the
present, in order to erect better and more
efficient hosting works. IF this divining
rod or mineral indicator proposition
proves to be the success that it promises to
be, it may revolutionize mining

AN EVIDENCE OF PROSPERITY. - The
Portland Oregoaiaa of October Dist prints
the annexed:
c. b. King arrived here yesterday from
CGur dAlene mines. On his way down to
the mission he met twenty-four mule teams
going in with freight on the boat he saw
seventy-tive barrels of whisky going into
the mines on an order from one man for
one hundred barrels. This is given as evil
dence of the prosperity of the mines. The
recent discoveries on the south fork are
very extensive and active development is
going forward.

There are about 3, 100 saloons and places
where liquors are sold in San Francisco.
If that number were paying a reasonably
high license, say $50 each per month, it
would yield the snug little sum of 81 ,S6O,-
900. Or if half of them closed up because
of such tax, there would be sufficient left
to supply the wants of the thirsty, and still
an income of 100000, as against sos, $40
received from the same source last year.
By such reduction of numbers the worst
deadfalls, where the criminal classes con-
gregate, would be eliminated, and the re-
suit would be a great reduction of crime,
and less demand for police service. Sac
ramento can protitably study the same sub
iect.

SWINE BREEDERS MEETING.-Hon. d. w.
Smith, President of the National Swine
Breeders Association, calls the third
annual meeting to be held Wednesday, No
vember II, 1885, in Chicago Ill. All State
and national organizations of swine breed
ers and the various record associations are
cordially invited to representation, each
being requested to send two delegates. A
programme of unusual interest is arranged,
and number of topics of vital importance
to swine breeders will be discussed 1t is
hoped there will be a full representation
from all organizations concerned in advanc-
ing the welfare of the swine-growing in
dustry in America. This association should
receive the hearty and undivided support
of every such organization, with a view to
promoting the general prosperity of one of
the greatest business industries of the
world. The meeting will occur during the
week of the great American Fat Stock
Show, and will therefore be only one of
several attractions which will draw breed
ers from considerable distances to Chi
cago.

English Political Affairs.

New YORK, October 29th-A. M-London
specials say that England has been can.
vassed by competent judges, and the fol,
lowing results are expected in the general
elections to be held next month The Lib.
erals are sure of a plurality in the next
Parliament, but are not yet certain of a
majority that is to overcome the Tories and
Parnellites together. The internal divis-
ions of the Liberal party are shown to have
undergone great change. In the past the
Wings have largely outnumbered the Rad
icals- In the next Parliament they will be
almost exactly balanced. Accident NAV
give preponderance to either faction at
any moment, and it is within the bounds
of possibility that a Wing Radical coalition
may be disrupted by the dissolution of the
former faction. In this case the land,
owning and conservative Wings would &c
to the Tories, and the rest would amalga-
mate with the Radicals.

A HEADLEss CHIcKEN.-The Santa Cruz
Surf is responsible for the following:
A great curiosity was brought to Lin
coins stable yesterday morning by James
Murray. of Rodeo Gulch A week ago he
cut off the head of a chicken, expecting to
have it for dinner, and went into the house
leaving it lying in the yard Shortly after
ward he went out and found it missing,
and at last discovered it, to his great sur
prise, walking about without its head. In
this way it has survived for a week, and.
TO all appearance, has the usual length of a
chickens day before it, if not cut off in
some untimely manner. The head was
severed from the body in such a way that
the tongue remains, and probably a portion
of the brain. Upon the tongue is placed
the grain with which it is fed, and of which
it partakes with an apparently good appe-
tite. 1t even makes some rather abortive
efforts to crow. 1t is a partially game
blood rooster, and that it is game to the
last extreme is a self-evident fact.
