100 ounces. The vein was pronounced u
fine one. Of course. the existence of this
vein was counted upon for "A dead certainty,
but was thought To be a very pleasant
thing to have the matter settled in this way
beyond IA doubt. Iy rough calculation
the amount of ore in sight was estimated
to be S23, ,ooo,ooo, yesterday. Holders of

Although it is not generally known,
it is fact nevertheless, that the person
Of the president is guarded and pro-
tected about as completely rs though
he was surrounded with soldiers. Nis-
itors to the White house do not know
this, because they See nothing to indi-
cate that there is anybody in particular
looking after the safety Of the head Of
the executive branch of tire govern
ment But if you will look at the gem
tlemanly and neatly dressed ushers
who stand at the entrance, and can he
found at convenient places all through
the White House, you will notice that
they are all men Of fine physique.
Then, if you gaze more carefully you
will see that they gaze sharply at each
stranger upon entering, and that there
is hardly an inch OF the building which
Is not under the eye of some of them.
These ushers are really detectives.

NEW YORK, May 81. - Almost with
the FIRST dawn of daylight people began
TO assemble around General Grants
tomb, and by 10 o'clock visitors were
on the bluff overlooking the Hudson
platform, in four stages which had
been built on side of the tomb, and at
daylight the business Of arranging the
floral decorations ON and around the
latter began. The front of the tomb
was draped with ivy sprigs, so thickly
as almost to hide the brickwork. On
each side Of the gate were beautiful
wreaths of lilies. red and yellow roses
and ferns. The iron bars of the gate
were eDtwined with sprays Of smilax,
mixed with roses. Over the gate was u
crown of magnificent lilies and other
flowers, with the white dove descend
ing OH it and round it, half the circle
of the arch, was the inscription,
Faithful Unto DEATH" lettering COM
posed of white Christmas roses. Over
the keystone Of the arch stood floral
cross Of arms, Easter lilies, roses aud
snlilax. The interior If the tomb WAS
mass Of palm branches, foliage, plants
and ferns, maiden hair and others ON
each side Of the gateway. On the exte-
ri"r side were disposed scrolls Of white
inmorteles. hearing in purple lettering
the words "Finis" and Peace" and in
front of the entrance WAS n three-inch
gun composed of white immortelles,
with IA carriage of ivy and white dove
percned on the muzzle.
The members of the Grand Army
who took part in the ceremonies at
the tomb went up the Hudson by
steamer to l29th street and marched
thence to the spot, where they arrived
about > p m. by this time Riverside

with a vast throng Of people stretching
away from the central object Of inter
est in every direction.

Writing and Editing.

To write for paper is one thing; to
edit it another. There are some excel
lent writer's who would make fool Of
a paper" if they had the conducting Of
it for few weeks. a good editor sell
dom writes much for his paper; he
reads. judges. selects, dictates, alters,
combines; and to do this well has little
time to compose. Those people who
have the most to say about the way IA
newspaper should be conducted are
those who know the least of what they
are talking.
