was given, but not all in double eagles. As

This ratio is approximately one-seventh

sevenlhs double eagles. There is no diff

any calls for gold coin likely to arise. 1t

THE MANUFACTURE OFBRICK

We took occasion some months
ago to call attention to the great adj
vantages possessed by this city for
the manufacture of brick. Nature
has supplied us with a clay that has
no superior, as we believe, on the
American continent, for tue produc.
ton OF the very finest brick that can
be made. The fact that this natural
product, found ut the foot hills
on every side Of our city, should
practically lie dormant for the want
OF busiaess enterprise and a little
capital to brisg it into prominence, is
a phase Of our inactivity that we do
not desire to advertise too freely.

Bluff, this state, there is located the
largest staye factory in the world,
employing $500 hands. II was

good timber was plentiful. Our clay
for brick is absolutely pited up on
every side OF us, but that seems to
make no impression. If We were to
