after lengthy and thorough examina
ton spot was pointed out to the own
ers where the indicator announced the
strongest current of electricity. A stake
was driven into the ground to mark the
spot, and as night was approaching,
Pennington and BRYANT deferred their
explorations until Tuesday morning,
when they opened up shaft on the
spot indicated. AS the result they sent
word to Mr.. Tompkins that they had
struck the ore body at dept Of three
feet. The quality of the same being the
same as that of the ore found in the ad-
joining claim, the Carbonate Belle. They
congratulated Mr.. Tompkins on the sue
cess Of the mine indicator, and express
ed gratitude for his kind and disinter-
ested services in their behalf. This test
has given the most satisfactory result
yet attained by this wonderful inven.
ton, and proves beyond doubt that the
indicator will do all its inventor claims
for it,"

The War on Silver.

Washington, Nov. lit is understood
that the president issued the order
secluding himself from office seekers for
the purpose of giving himself time to
prepare his annual message. He does
not expect when congress is in session
to deny himself to senators and mem
bers, and hopes by q month of seclusion
to get ready for the winter work. The
administration will take very positive
ground on the financial question. Jor-
dan and Manning will recommend in
their reports the suspension of silver
coinage. The president will endorse
their views. Jordan will be able to
show that 81, ,00O, 900 has already been
lost in tho attempt to force silver into
circulation. 1t is understood the policy
of the treasury department will hs
sgainst further calling of bonds.

superintend the working oftheir mines
Generally some young fellow out OF the
Office, or, perhaps some stockholder in
whose honesty they have confidence,
but who never saw a mine before. and
would not know one from any other
hole in the ground. We say it is no
wonder that they make mistakes.

The District estimates afford some interesting
reading. By examining the figures one may
zee what 1t is that costs in government. The
expenses Of the District for the year to come are
po; down at the goodly sum of %, s29. SOS. 90.
The largest single item is for interest on the
debt, amounting to 81 ,213, 947 81. After that,
We pay most for our schools, the expenditures
for that item being S535, O9s. Next to schools
come the police. with an expenditure OF S357, '

The valuation of the taxable real property Of
the District amounts to s95 ,054 ,3o1; a state
ment which may give one a lively idea of the
wealth of some of the great money kings OF the
country. There several men in the United
States whose individual wealth is reported to
exceed one hundred millions. Let, then, per-

A manuscript by the late Gen. Mcclellan,
containing his personal recollections of the
civil war, was acct dentally destroyed some
years ago, and 1t was said that the author was
SO discouraged by the misfortune that he re-
fused TO reproduce the work. But, fortunately,
such was not the case. Gen. McClellan's notes
and papers were saved, and out OF them he had
nearly rewritten his book when death over
took him. The work will now be pushed to
completion and published. As narrative
oil the great events in the earlier stages of the
war 1t will be of great value, and it will be of
the more use because 1t will treat the subject
from new standpoint. No doubt many of Nc
Clellans facts and opinions will give rise to dis
putes, but out of these controversies comes the
truth OF history.

The Ohio republicans have gained step in
the legal proceedings To determine which set of
senators from Hamilton county is entitled to
certificates, as the circuit court decided yester-
day in favor OF tine claim of that party. The
democrats ascribe the result, however, to the
political composition of the court, all the judges
being republicans, and they have appealed the
case to the supreme court, where, they predict,
the decision will be reversed, because the court
OF appeal stands three democrats to two repub-
hcans- There are "reminiscences of the.eight-to-

The well-worn argument that it would be
cheaper TO keep the Indians At q fashionable
hotel than to deal with them as We do now is
revived by supplemented westerner, who
was Interviewed yesterday ON his arrival in this
city. The argument is not novel, but it is
strictly true. The only trouble lies i'm the fact
that the United States has no right to save
money in that way. In very many cases it would
pay 70 confiscate a mans possessions and board
him at q hotel out OF the proceeds of the stolen
property, but there are legal and moral difficult
ties To be surmounted which make such pro-
cedure impracticable. The Indians eujoy no
privileges that are not theirs by right and these
cannot be taken away because the country
would make money by the act.

posted the balance in the Mechanics
Nation Bank, of Newark, which failed,

the executor, claiming that he was liza

had stopped payment; but they We're
defeated. The case Cox VS.. Roome)
was carried to the Court of Errors and
Appeals, where the decree was affirmed.
Chief Justice Beasley, in the opinion,
said: THE executor had put the money
in solvent bank, making the deposit
in the name of Benjamin Roome,
estate of Hassel G. Jacobus, and it is
plain that the deposit was not at his
risk. The general doctrine, as stated
by Judge Story, is that a trustee is to
keep the trust property as a prudent
man keeps his own. Therefore, if he
should deposit money with banker in
good credit, to remit it to a proper
place by a bill, drawn by person in
due credit, and the banker or the
drawee of the bill should become bank
rupt, he would not be responsible
