 About 20 men are at work at the Mamie and Jonathan taking out the usual quantity of ore. That from the latter comes from near the surface and is offair grade.

From The Atlantic 10 The Pacific

On Monday morning, April I'd, after
bidding farewell to relatives and friends,
one of the bittcrest sweets Of life, finds us
at Harrisonvillc station waiting for :he
train. Having time for meditation we re-
allied we were leaving home and native
place. While thus mediiating the train
rolled up and in a few moments we were
on II way 10 Philadelphia. After saying
farewell TO some friends, ETC., j.15 II. NJ.
finds ms leaving the city Of Brotherly
Love. Tho country now to be seen is en-
tirely new to us and many sights met our
gaze as the gloom that had over hung all
day had completely passed away. We
passed through Chester and Wilmington,
not seeing anything extraordinary until we
reach llayre de Grace where a beautiful
view of the setting sun was seen while
crossing The S~usquehanna. The train
stopped awhile so that all might enjoy it.
We reached Baltimore at 7.45, and are
there run on @boat and conveyed to Locust
Point where we again take to terra firma.
We passed through Washington at $40
where we saw the Capitol for the first time.
Passed through Harper's Ferry at 11.20
and then commenced the ascent Of the
mountains. AS we reached Cumberland
We noticed a decided change in the atmos-
pAcre. Passing Deer Park, the popular
summer resort, and Ontario, We reach the
highest point and then commenced the de-
scent at n rate Of speed that almost makes
one dizzy. The scenery here was very
fine, having a moonlight view. Reached
Grafton, West Virginia, att a. NJ. Tuesday,
where the porter announced thirty minutes
for breakfast. We cross tine Ohio river at
PaIkersburg, and after we gain the OHIO
side we use Pittsburg time, which is one
hour slower than eastern time. Athens is
the only town of note until we reach Gin
%cinnati. Most Of the country passed has
been very mountainous with very beanti-
ful scenery, but we see no farm land until
near Cincinnati. where we see some level
conatry and very nice farms. We reach
Cincinnati at 6 =. NJ. and have three hours
which is well spent in seeing over town.

Of which is occupied by the finest fountain
we ever saw, said to have few superiors.

Our boards of agriculture and grange
orders are doing an Invaluable work toward
the Improvement of agriculture and the
elevation of the farmer. Among the speak
ers and active workers are numbered some
OF the ablest and most progressive agricul-
~turists Of the country. The addresses and
discussions cover a wide range of interest
ing topics. OF course the prime subjects
of discussion are those of direct practical
importance to the farmer, such as the most
improved methods of farming and stock
raising; methods that reduce expenses and
increase receipts and give the largest re-
turns with the minimum of labor; in short,
how to make more money on the farm.
But the mere making of money, though
necessary, is not nearly 50 important as
the enjoyment of life, so, very interesting
are the discussions that relate to the i'm
provement of the moral, social and intel
lectual condition OF the farmers family;
how to make the farm home n contented
and happy one, relieve it OF its monotony
and drudgery, and surround it with all the
comforts that contribute to the sum of hui
man happiness.
There is another important subject on
which a good deal of thinking is done now
adavs by the farmer. At many of the
meetings the most interesting discussions
are on legislation, both state and national,
that has n bearing ON agriculture. Politi-
cal questions are ably discussed from a
practical, business point of view-the only
way they should be considered-and there
is an earnest endeayor to find out how the
present depression in agriculture may be
relieved by proper legislation.
Farmers should have more representa-
tives in the state and national legislature;
not for the purpose of securing special class
legislation, which they neither need or de-
sire, but to guard their interests against
class legislation.

The Cost of War.

ISenator George f. iioar, at the ban
quet rendered by the Commercial Gin OF
Boston to the British Peace Deputation. ]
The cost of our late war, not counting
the cost to the States, not counting the
cost to the side that was defeated, not
counting the cost to the towns and cities,
probably exceeded Sc, 900, 600, 900. Now
what does that mean? What could have
been done with that sum? Our parallel of
latitude is about 10000 miles on land in
going around the world, and with that &c.
900, 600, 900 you could put every ten miles
the world ronnd on the parallel of Boston
4 university W 18th an endowment of 81, 900, =
600. Orr friend spoke of the cost of a ship
of war-e900, 900, 81, SOC, 600 in Il single
mar-of-war, saying nothing of supporting
her after she was floated. This is more
than the endowment of any university in
this country. with one exception, and, |
suppose, more than the endowment of any
university in Great Britain, with two or
three exceptions. Why, every peasant
born on the continent Of Europe is born
with a soldier on his back, ond he goes
through life staggering and stumbling
with that soldier perpetually on his Shout
ders. Now, fellow-citizens, when this de-
putation comes to us with a message from
the greatest power on earth, asking us to
join her in an attempt to save all this cost
and waste of money, all the loss of human
life, all the decoration of the affections Of
the thousands and millions that in every
generation are cut off in youth, taken from
parents and wife and child by war, by this
simple method of arbitration, ] think we
from England a message worthy for Eng
land to send and worthy for America to
receive.

country to give up the use of whisky and
other alcohols, using as a substitute beer
and other compounds. This is evidently
founded on the idea that beer is not harm
full, and contains a large amount of nutri-
ment; also, that bitters may have some
medical quality which will neutralize the
alcohol which it conceals, etc. These
theories are without confirmation in the
observation of physicians. The use of
beer is found to produce a species of de-
generation of all the organs; profound and
deceptive fatty deposits, diminished circu-
lation, conditions of congestion and perger-
sion of functional activities, local inham-
nation Of both the liver and kidneys, are
constantly present. intellectually, a stupor
amounting almost to paralysis, arrests the
reason, changing all the higher faculties
into a mere animalism, sensual, selfish,
sluggish, varied only with paroxvsms of
anger that arc senseless and brutal. In
appearance the beer-drinker may be the
picture of health, but in reality he is most
incapable of resisting disease. A slight
injury, a severe cold, or a shock to the
body or mind, will commonly provoke an
acute disease ending fatally. Compared
with inebriates who use different kinds of
alcohol, he is more incurable and more
generally diseased. Tic constant use of
beer every day gives the system no recnper-
alton, but steadily lowers the vital forces.

The ProdigaI Daughter.

To the home of his father returning,
Tn Prodigal, weary and worn,
Is greeted with joy and thanksgiving,
As when on his first natal morn:
4 "robe" and II "ring" are his portion,
The servant rs supplicants bow,
He is clad in fine linen and purple
In return for his peniicnt vow
But All for the Prodigal daughter,
Who has wandered away from her home.
Her feet still press the dark valley,
And through the wild wilderness roam;
Alone, on the bleak, barren mountains
The mountains so dreary and cold
No hand is outstretched in fond pity
To welcome her back to the fold.
But thanks to The Shepherd, whose mercy
Still follows His sheep, tho they stray;
The weakest, and e'en the forsaken,
lie bears in His bosom Away;
And In the bright mansions Of glory
Which The blood of His sacrifice won,
There is room FOR the ProdIgal Daughter
As well as the Prodigal Son!
