The Way i. Mine IL Developed.

These new mining companies all make
GOOD assay shOWings OF their ores, or of
ores OF adjoining or neighboring mines.
They are not worth the labor making
them. would rather have good rela-
BILE assay of the men who are ut the head
ct the enterprise. That is all there is in /,
mine. When Il company starts to develop
a mine it never knows what it is going to
cost until it gets through. Three of us
may go in. The other two may be ready
to put up their full share OF the money to
strike the bonanza may get tired
hey do not want to develop my property
for my benefit, and they become tired and
quit. The mines lie idle for some time,
and finally they sell out tor little or moth
ing, to get rid Of it. The purchasers must
have my third, and | ge: all | put i'll it, Or
may be more.
Then another COMPANY starts out, and it
winds up the same way. Finally il sue
cessor strikes it rich, and the stock be
comes very valuable, but it is only after
successive companies have been organ
lied and gone to pieces. The presumption
is that all of these mines will be- good, il
the persons at the htai OF them will only
st! X together: but there, the rub, AM!
that is why al assay of the men is of more

A Scene in Our Congress-,

correspondent at Washington writes
his impressions of the national legislature:
II was in both branches Of our national
legislature and filled afresh by the great
dome and its works ct art, by the marble
rooms and stairs, which can never be up
prectated without being seen. It was my
first view Of the senate in session. The
strong light from overhead gave great
beauty to the green carpet of the floor.
Ny anxiety to compare the senate with
the southern Methodist general confer
ence was opportune for the former, as it
was in memorial session of the late Mr..
Miller. AL was quiet in the room. The
speaker, in detailing his military career at
Murfreesboro, Nashville and other points
In Tennessee, was as gentle, tender. and
pathetic as would have been Il minister at
the funeral. That SO few senators were
In their seats surprised me, and they We're
the LATEST looking set OF fellows | have
ever seen,, unless / except u lot OF tramps
in city park
"GOlng into the house l saw a large
group OF members in front of the speak
ers desk, and they We're passing between
men who were counting them, each slap
ping the member cordially on the shoulder
as ne would announce 'one more for the
affirmative or negative, as the case might
be. Such a proceeding by the congress OF
the United States was novel, to say the
least. It was far less orderly than Il dozen
small lads whom saw in their own way
drilling with sticks for guns and cOlOred
rags for flags down by the treasury later
IN the day."--Nashville American.

No Monument Erected to Regul,,s.

We have just learned that there is 10
monument to Regulus. Why has this been
neglected so long? More than 1900 years
lave passed since he performed one OF the
most unseltish actions ever recorded
hegulus was a Roman general in the wal
against the. Carthagenians. Being de:
teated and made prisoner, he was kept in
prison five years. Then reverses caused
MS captors to desire peace. The Roman
general was released on parole and sent to
Rome with the Punic ENJOYS. Regulus
proved himself Il regular brick on the &C.
caslon. Regardless of what might hap
pen to himself he advised the Roman sen
ate not to make peace with Carthage. He
sa!d it they continued to fight it out on
mat line Carthage was bound to fall He
was not even in favor of an exchange of
prisoners. His advice being adopted.
Aesulus went back to Carthage with the
ambassadors by the next train and was
promptly put to death. And yet kegulus
