Valuable Stones Discovered Recently In
Caucasus.

Caucasus.
Last week company was organized
at Berlin, Germany, with a capital Of
100000 marks, for the exploration Of
a quarry Of lithograhpic stones, which
was found in the Caucasus not long
ago, says the Philadelphia Record.
Heretofore Solenhofen, little town
in Bavaria, had the exclusive monop-
oily of this expensive article, and from
there the supply of the entire world
had to be obtained. A German engi-
neer employed in Caucasia stumbled
across the quarry and, having had some
experience with photographic stones, he
sent specimen to a German friend
for examination. The friend found out
that the stone was Of even finer grain
and better quality than the Solenhofen
stones. and syndicate was formed to
purchase the territory where the quar-
ry is located. This has been done with
the assistance Of the Russian govern
ment and Prince Sombera OF Ananour.
The tract purchased by the syndicate
contains outside of the precious quar-
ries a naphtha spring, with a flow Of
twenty gallons per minute, which is
to be employed as motive power Cor
the cutting and polishing machinery.
The photographic stone is of the best
quality and can be cut in much larger
sizes and cheaper than those of Sol
enhofen. The cost Of transportation
from Batoum, by sea, to London and
Hamburg will be so small that the
price of good stones will probably be
one-half of their present value. For
the production OF the modern large
posters the new source of stones" will
be Of greatest Importance.

Inc cattle could not be in better con-

equal to three year old raised in most
places, and these, as are all others
about Alameda, were fed on native hay

we had previous to this visited the

suitable land for mixed farming. we
are now in a position to say that the

NJ. V. McInnes, Esq, Colonization
Agent. Detroit. Mich. Dear Strive
have just returned from the West, and
were exceedingly well pleased with the
country. We are going back to take
up our homesteads in early spring. We
received $35 per month and board
working for farmers, and the board
was the best we ever had-the beef and
mutton especially were excellent. The
fine flavor is owing to the fine grasses
which the cattle and sheep feed upon.
The people are very hospitable, and
treat their hired help with much kind
ness.
The grain is much heavier than
here; wheat being 62 lbs to the bushel
oats AS lbs. and barley often 55 lbs.
Any man with a good team and
money enough to buy provisions and
seed for six months can become rich
there in five years. Many people who
arrived there five years ago with
little. or nothing. are we'll off now.
One man ] met held his wheat from
last year and was offered $4,000 for
this years crop and what he had held
over from last year, and is holding OF
81 per bushel. We are going back in
the spring TO work for this same farm
er until seeding, after which we will
homestead between seeding and har-
vest. We think we will settle on the

You can refer any one to us for this

and we will cheerfully answer any
questions which anyone may wish to
