INTERNATIONAL MINING EXHIBITION.

1t should be interesting to our mining
people to learn that an international exhi-
bition of mining and metallurgy will be
held in London this summer The pros
pectus, received through Banker Nc
CoRNICK, says:
Immense advances have of late years taken
place in mining and metallurgcal practice, and
no wholly suitable opportunity has presented
itself. or been taken advantage of, for ade-
quately illustrating the degree of progress
which has been attained. This remark espe-
cially applies to metalliferous mining, and to
the economical treatment of refractory ores
for the recovery of precious metals. Moreover,
1t will be readily admitted that at no previous
period has mining assumed such degree of
importance, whether it be regarded as an indus
try, a profession, or a vehicle for speculation
and investment. A little consideration will
suffice to emphasize the impression which will
doubtless have occurred to many, that an inter
national exhibition of mining and metallurgy
conducted on a sound and independent basis, is
not only erninently desirable, but is admirably
calculated to promote the best interests of
legitimate mining and scientific metallurgy.
The space available for the purposes of the ex-
hibition will admit of extensive and repre-
the scope Of this prospectus, being brought to-
gether in one comprehensive collection. Every
effort will be made to render the exhibition of
real practical and educative service to those
professionally engaged in the various branches
of the mining and metallurgical industries. as
well as TO the general public, amongst whom so
much uncertain knowledge exists regarding
them. 1t is also believed that the selection of
the crystal palace as the locale of the exhibition
will prove happy one.
The classification and disposition of the ex-
hibits Will receive careful attention in order to
facilitate their inspection by the public Col
lections of mineral specimens, cases and sam
plies of manufactured articles, samples of ores
and minerals in bulk models, machinery and
mechanical appliances of light character.
maps and plans, ETC., will be placed in the cor
ridors and galleries devoted to the purposes of
the exhibition; and the heavier machinery in
motion, and the heavy exhibits generally, will
be located in the spacious basement. and in the
annexe TO be specially erected for their accom-
mediation at the north end OF the palace
The subjects embraced within the scope of
the exhibition include machinery, gold.
, silver and diamond mining, iron and steel
manufacture, lead mining and manufacture.
mining and smelling, natural asphalt min
ing, coal mining, the petroleum industry.
quarrying, clays, cement, etc.
1t seems to US that our mine owners and
smelters will want space in the exhibit
ton. A representative exhibit from this
territory would certainly result in good
attracting, as it would, the attention of the
capitalists and investors who will see the
display. The agents for the exhibition in
this country are BARCLAY, MACGREGoR g.
Co., As Exchange Place, New York, who
will supply information to those who ask it.

POSTMASTER BARRATT TO GO.

It was only to be expected that Postmas-
ter BARRATT would have to 'Sgo." He is a
Democrat and was appointed by the great
est Of living Democrats; hence the change
Of administration necessarily meant the re-
moval from Office Of the gentleman We
know it was said that men would not be
removed before the expiration of their
terms, except for cause other than politi-
cal, but thai promise was made to
De broken, for during the first
nine months OF HARRIsoN's administration
more officials were retired on account of
their politics than were turned out during
.he entire four years. term of CLEVELAND.
The Salt Lake Office being one of the i'm
portant ones of the country and the appli-
cants for his place being numerous and
more or less influential it has occasioned
some surprise that Mr.. BARRATT has not
been asked to walk the plank long ere this
But now that the announcement of his
early decapitation comes along, there will
be general objection to the placing of the
removal on any other ground than that he
is a Democrat. II is said in a tele-
gram to our morning contemporary
that some inspector has reported that
the Office is not being conducted on
progressive lines commensurate with the
growth and prosperity of the city. This
can truthfully be said, but the fault does
not lie with the postmaster. AS a matter
pf fact the office is a disgrace TO the gov
srnment; but Mr.. BARRATT is not re
sponsible for it. His duties have been per
formed well and faithfully; to our per-
sonal knowledge he has worked early and
late, and compelled his inadequate force to
work unusually long hours, that the public
should suffer least from the stinginess of
the government which insisted upon hold
ing Salt Lake down to a postoffice equip
ment of village while putting upon it the
labor and responsibility Of a populous city.
The postmaster and not the depart
ment officials IN Washington has a
right to complain that the Office is
not what it should be. THE HERALD
certifies that Mr.. BARRATT has been an ex-
ceilent official, and we believe the most eff
fcient postmaster the city has ever had
he is certainly the best of modern times,
ns that portion Of the public that is at all
familiar with the office will testify.
We realize that 1t would be idle to pro-
test against the removal, but we can insist
that the bouncing be placed on the proper
grouud-that the postmaster is Demo
crat.

A correspondent OF the London
Fanciers' Gazette relates as an instance
of the courage Of gamecocks the fol.
lowing fact communicated by an
officer now In the American navy.
Sailing from Trincomali. on board
the Anchises for London. we had a
large consignment Of wild beasts for
Mr.. Jamrach. for the feeding OF which
he had taken IN q large number OF
live poultry. On board there was q
tiger 30 fierce and savage that he
would take the second snap at the red
hot bar, and the sailors named him
TIE Demon. Among the poultry one
CT the Jungle cocks played havoc with
the other cocks and became so bold as
to fly ut the sailors caps when teasing
him. AT last he put his sharp spurs
through a mans hand and was doomed
to visit the Demons cage. The tiger
put his paw toward the bird in a
stealthy manner, when. quick as light
ming, the cock sent his spurs into 1t,
and for a few minutes the tiger licked
his paw; then, reaching out his nose
until 1t got in close proximity with the
bird, the spurs we're dashed into the
tigers nose. from which the blood
triclsled, and, with a muftied growl OF
rage. the tiger reiterated to the fur
thest corner of the cage. The sailors
sent up a cheer at The victory and de-
termined to bring the game bird to
England, but he died before reaching
the channel"

sections, and especially the west half Of
the north half OF that portion cast Of the
Missouri, crops are much more spotted

Exploring a MEXICAN Volcano,

Word has been received from the
City OF Mexico that Prof. Angelo He'll
prin and Frank G. Baker, represent
ing the Academy of Natural Science of
Philadelphia, made a recent investiga-
ton OF the volcano OF Jorullo, made
famous by Humboldt. Their journey
was made via Patzcuaro and Arlo de
l.~sales. They could find no trace OF
liquid lava in any OF the principal era
tiers. Vapors were, however, issuing
from the apex of the principal volcano
with a temperature Of $50 degrees
Fahrenheit. Thermometers thrown
into the inner crater wall marked 1CO
degrees. The volcano is m%anifestly in
q semi-active condition. After making
the investigation they descended into
TERRA Caliente through the pines OF
Buena Vista. Prof. Heilprin has re-
corded this descent. In travelling
from the region of pines the travellers
dropped among the lowlands, wber
they found immense quantities OF
palms, bananas and figs.

"The crops are about all gone. We

OOmethinY AbOu Hay Fever.
The last issue of the Plankinton Herald
contained a long clipping on the treat
ment Of hay fever. which reminds us that
the editor Of the GRAPHIC has been sub
ject to the intensely disagreeable malady
since childhood, and up to his removal to
Dakota, never passed through a summer
without catching it in a more or less
violent form. Since residing here, how
ever, he has had touches Of it only on
rare occasions and never to exceed a
week OF two at a time. A visit East,
though, in any of the summer months is
sure to bring on the disease in Its worst
form. Such was the case two years ago
last month. From his experience he is
satisfied that hay fever sufferers will find
a visit to the Dakotas very beneficial
during the months in which the malady
Is prevalent. and is in hopes that some Of
the thousands Of victims Of it may learn
this that this bit of personal history has
been written.
