Tin Ore.

A correspondent of the Rockbridge News
in describing the country known as Irish
Creek in Rockbridge county, has this to
say about the recently discovered tin ore
mines: -
But the special attraction of this region,
at this time, is the Tin Mines now being
opened. 1t is known that the supply of
tin has, heretofore, come almost exclusively
from the Cornwall mines, in England.
Recently the ore has been found in other
places, but the supply has never yet been
sufficient to meet the demand, and much
that is now used and sold for tin, is, in
fact only lead. The Cornwall mines are
worked at great expense, often in shafts
1000 or more feet deep, requiring great ex-
pense in reaching the ore and in the support
of the tunnels, and pumping for drainage.
Yet the average richness of the ore is said
not to be more than two per cent. and
veinsare profitably worked that yield only
one per cent.
In the Irish Creek region. traces OF tin
have been found extending over a surface
of one mile by eight. The veins discov-
cred are small assure veins, but so numer-
Gus and widespread as to furnish the
strongest assurance Of richer and more ex-
tensive underlying beds.
Two companies have been formed and
charters issued by Judge Mclaughlin, in
this county, for the development and
working of the ores. The company work.
ing on the land of Mr.. Cash, of which Mr..
Whitehead is president, has already begun
the work of sinking shaft, and it is said
that the richest ore in the world has been
found here, specimens Of which have
yielded from so to 60 per cent of tin. Half
mile below this on the creek, on the land
of Mr.. Alex. Grant, Mr.. A. D. Robertson,
an alumnus of W. & L. IT,, has been pro-
speeding for twelve months, and has dis
covered numerous veins, which he is sat-
isfied will prove the same and equally as
rich as the other. A charter has been
granted for this, some Of the incorpora
tors being men Of known business talent
and standing. Among them we learned
the names of w. A. Strother, d. A. Lang.
horn and w. B. Robertson of Lynchburg.
This company propose to begin work by
sinking shaft, Immediately after the hol
idays. Already Mr.. Robertson has gone
down ten or more feet, and finds the vein
widening as he descends, giving every evil
dence of larger deposit below.

Rurdatte on Profanity.

Yes, we think you might class 'gosh-
DUN and 'dad-bing as profane swearing.
'Gaul-ding' may also be considereda swear
word. 'Dumsswizzled' is another. All
these words bear the same relation to thor
oughbred, sky blue profanity that the pale
pink lemonade of the Sunday school pic
mic does to the raw whiskey of the target
company's excursion. They are the out
growth of a terrible struggle of a theolog-
ical compromise arranged by our Puritan
ancestors, who recognized with faultness
spiritual vision and worldly acumen the
necessity of pure life and sinless vocab-
ulary, and the same time the utter impos-
sibility of plowinga New England stone
patch without class of words designed to
relieve the overburdened mind and aston
tonished feelings, every time the plow
handles broke mans ribs and extorted
every last drop of vital breath from his
