SECRETS UNEARTHED.

A few years ago n crude smelling
furnace was unearthed in the upper part
of Kanawha county 10y q man ploughing
in field on the "old Morris farm.
1t was rudely built of stone, WAS about
the size of q wagon bed, and about three
feet under ground. It's appearance and
condition indicated that It bad probably
LAIN there for centuries undistur6ed. A
quantity of silver dross WAS found in 1t,
and although Of very primitive build
it showed signs of considerable use, its
bottom being covered with ashes and its
sides showing the effect of long-con-
tinued fire. Unfortunately the furnace
was entirely destroyed in the examiua-
ton, but that the above description is a
plain unvarnished description IS beyond
dispute
Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1888-09-07

81 am engaged in finding and de-
veloping gold, silver, copper, and lead
ore. | have found 20 different veins OF
gold, II of silver, of copper, aud 4 Of
lead all in the same mountain. One
vein of silver is fifteen feet in diameter
and melts away TO one half silver. The
thickest vein OF gold is about ten feet
and is very rich. The mountains OF
West Virginia are full OF such trea-
sures."
Mr.. Ellison has been sort of anna
teur mineralogist nearly all his life, but
whether or not he has any real know
ledge OF that science is question.

UNDouBrED vRRACIrY

He is OF undoubted veracity, and 1t
would be all impossibility to convince
any Of his acquaintance that he was
knowingly stating an untruth. lie has
either found what ne claims or IS ms
taken in regard to the value OF his find.
No other explanation of his story can he
given unless It be that ais mind has be-
come unbalanced upon the subject OF
precious metals.
Ever since the settlement OF this valley
there has been legend 20 the effect that
there was a silver-mine in it somewhere.
1t is said that the Indians used to mould
it into bullets, but always refused abso-
lutely to tell whore they found 1t, saying
that "if the white man was as smart as
the Indian he would find it out.
Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1888-09-07
A VEIN or LEAD.

As an evidence that a vein Of lead is to
be found somewhere in the mountains Of
New river the case OF al old hunter by
the name Of Plat is cited. He was a
native of New York and one of the earliest
settlers Of the New River Valley. He
claimed to have discovered vein Of lead
in the mountains, but was ridiculed by
the other settlers for some time. As he
soon afterwards gave substantial proof OF
his assertion by supplying lead for the
entire settlement his story began to be
credited, and repeated inquiries were
made as to the location of his find. He
always refused to tell, however, and en-
loved the full benefit of his knowledge
no to his death, after which all the lead
used in that locality had to be brought
from another quarter.
The truth of both these stories is estab-
lished beyond dispute, and whether or
not Mr.. Ellison has discovered the lost
Indian siiyer.mine and "old man
Platt's carefully-gnarded secret is q ques-
ton that we leave for our readers and
future developments to decide.

this county Is familiar with the name OF
Rev. J. Il. Ellison, OF the Baptist
church. He was one of the early settlers
of the county and lived for years upon
the hills on the south side OF the ka-
nawha river near what is now the Pine
Grove kchool- house. The "old Ellison
placef is the familiar name by which 1t
is still known among the older residents
Daring the civil war he removed to In
diana, but his memory was kept green
by his friends here, and when he re-
turned last fall he was cordially greeted
and welcomed by many who are now
numbered among our older citizens
whom he had known az children, or per-
hans had joined in wedlock more than
quarter OF century ago 70 tho COM
panion Of their joys and sorFtws. AFTER
staying here few weeks he left Tor
Fayette county to visit his old acquaint-

The Mills bill makes o cut Of about 20
per cent. on refined sugar, and 35 per
cent on the raw article. It reduces the
duty on rice II per cent, and on rice
meal Is per cent. These are staple South
ern products. The South contained in
1887 nearly one quarter Of oil the sheep
in the country, and yet the heaviest cut
Is said to be in wool, "a Northern pro.
duct" Presenting these facts the New
York Star claims with force that the cry
against the bill as sectional measure ID
throughly dishonest. Without any
reference to the various reductions on
Southern products the injustice Of that
cry is evident from the notorious fact
that the protected industries Of the North
are many times the value Of those Of the
South.
The North Is pre.eminently the manu-.
featuring section and In the reform Of q
tariff chiefly levied on the Northern
manufactures the most important
changes must be In the North. The cry
OF sectionalism only serves to illustrate
the terrible deformity Of the existing
system built up for the support Of civil
war and exhibiting in all its details q
norrowness Of spirit unworthy of a
united people.
