We desire to say to our citizens that Tor
years we have been selling DR.. Kings
New Discovery for Consumption, DR..
Kings New Lie Pills, Bucklen's Arnica
Save and Electric Bitters, and have never
handled remedies that sell as well, or that
have given such universal satisfaction.
We do not hesitate to guarantee them
every time, and we stand ready to refund
the purchase price if satisfactory results
do not follow their use. These remedies
have won their great popularity purely on
their merits. c. NJ. Dreamer, druggist.

Here we find the Company's smelling
works. These too have been rescued
from the speedy ruin into which they
were falling
TIE COPPER WORKS.
Supt. Thomas Kcdic, in the absence Of
Manager Raunheim, kindly showed me
over these works. The same vigorous
measures for improvement have been
carried on here above at the mine. The
buildings have been sheathed and rooted
with corrugated iron. A new engine and
shailing furnishes power for the blasting
furnaces. These smelters are standing i'll
good order and two OF them IN full blast
supplied blythe ores which are first washed
in huge piles and then freed from sulphur
in new set of separating and expecting
furnaces situated above the smelter. A
new l00-ton smelling furnace is on its way
to add to the capacity ofthese great works.
\ stamp mill is being erected under the
same roof for gold ores.
The Stag hitherto wasted is moulded rs
it comes red hot from the furnace into
rectangular blocks, which form a new
material for buildings and pavements, as
durable as stone and regularly and smooth
ly shape for setting into the walls. 1t
proves q feasible material and already a
neat structure has been erected for black
smith and machine work out Of these
blocks, near the smGter.
Out OF these furnaces the product
Of all the varied industry--the copper
matte, which requires sixty teams for
daily transfer to the market The matte
carries from one-half to three-quarters OF
an ounce of gold to the ton, and from SO
TO 60 per cent of copper, with consider
able silver, some times amounting to tif-
teen or twenty ounces. Its value, which
though fluctuating with the market is
from 5000 to $3.50 per ton, maintains the
skilled and patient but well rewarded
labor which, in its varied forms have SO
deeply interested me, and may well
inspire the confidence OF the readers OF
the New MEXICAN in the prospective
wealth and bright commercial future Of
