ONE OF THF WONDERS
Of Mining the Famous Pearce
 Mine is said Co Be.

The Silver City Enterprise of ,he lIth inst. has the following to say of the famous Pssrce mine:
 "lt is suthentically reported that our energetic fellow townsnan, John Brockman, and his aesocia e. have the greatest mining property m the world, recently acquired by them, purchased from the Pssres brothers, in Sulphur Spring valley, twsnty-fve miles from Wilcox, Arizona.
 "The mines are .sid 10 be something wonderful as to quality and quantity oi ore. For over 1900 feet in length along the vein the ore shows along the surface 10 be from F to 30 feet in width. The lowest average sample. taken along the vein for q distsnss ei lto1 feet, gave . value of SIS in gold and silver, SIP being gold, the balance silver.
 The company which has the prop srty bonded commenced work on Jan usry l2,h. ard they now have ore blocked ou: which. on . conservative estins,e. would give net profits Of a million aud q quarter. It ispo-i,ively asserted by men who are familiar with the workings of the Comstock, in So- nsnz4 days, that ths Psarce propert, will fully equal the Coms,ock which wac one of the greatest mines th- world has ever known. What the Pearce may lack in width of vein I. nore than offse, by tho wonderful length of 1900 feet and more Of one continuous pay chute. Experts wh" have examined the pr jperty say ther- is more money m Hgh. than in any siI mines o! Cripple Greek. From sll authentic accounts given O! .he prep erty. it Is one o! the wonders of min. ing"

once more to compliment his hosts and
apologize for his own people. The English
in that performance would see Mr.. Bayard
in his favorite role, and would receive an
other impress of his suave personality
But that would not change history The
fact that the United States and England
are on better terms today than for long
time past, and appear to be entering upon
a period of thorough good will toward each
other is no part of Mr.. Bayard's work
Such condition of affairs could never have
grown out Of his diplomacy. Compliments
and suavity have their uses and Mr.. Bay
ard. it is to be conceded, is an adept in that
and earnest peoples to a correct under
standing and appreciation of each other.
Mr.. Bayard would never have brought Eng
land to the proper conception of the Monroe
doctrine. ard. through that means, to a
proper appreciation of the purposes of the
tnited States. While he was balancing
phrases and trying to restrain his people
from doing or saying anything that the
oVernice might consider rude, England
would have run her own lines in Venezuela
and everywhere else il pleased her.
England likes the United States better for
having clear purpose and the firmness to
stand to it; and the United States likes
England better for a frank, if somewhat
reluctant. acknowledgment of plain state
Of case. But for bringing about this under
standing and era of good feeling gratitude
Is due not to any ccu"tier English or
Na- !can, but to the self respect of the
American people as voiced through the
masculinity of Richard Olney.
