Hut there is no revon for upjKMing that the terms were emjMoyed according to their strict geological sigmnVatioo. The plain objerl of the law is to di-jwe, for money value, of tbt mineral lands of the United hi tea, and if the claimant m willing to imt the nriee named in the Act it te clearly a matter of indtftVreore to the Government whether the metal ocrart in the form of a trae or Jalse ven, or whether m the form of a vein at all.

An idea may have prevailed at the time of the pAage of tho law that the placers were beaHHing ex- bausted, ami that their claimants did not care about buying the la ml or obtaining pat ents; or it may be that the act was dratted mainly in view of hoaliti, where placer mining oonstitntes a very inconsiderable branch of the busitxs oofojiaml to n-ky mining, and hence the phrmneolotry of the act seems to have more direct refer shop to vein mining than any other branch Rot whatever may be the rane of the jvhranol osrr adopted, it is very evident to the mind of the Comtnissionor that no pirjM or de sign existed in the minds either of the f rant ers of the trill or the (Jongreee that passed it, to exclude any class of loiners that choM to avail themselves of it provisions. Gono quonUy the law eboukl receive the most lib srs! conatrction that the lanjpuge wi!! ad mit of, ami even class of claims that, either according to sdentifie aeoaraev or ponomr usoge, can lie elaased and ammetl for as a vein or lode may le patent! under the law. It may be obervel as an important point tlmt no proof Is required to cetabliah the vein fun nation of the deposit, the law evident ly contemidating none. It requires the Surveyor-General to eertify "to the chameter of the vein exposed ;" but that is understood to mean that the certificate should show whether the exposed vein contains gold, sil vor, cinnabar or copper, a it would frequent Jy imjawibie for the Survejor-Geflofftl, even if las i:now!elge of mineral veins were sulllcient to xnder him otherwwe competent, to dotormino whether tho deposit conformed to one class of veins or the other or whether it was a truo vein at all, without extensive oxcavatiorB a requirement certainly notoon tumnlntod br tho .Mining Act, Tho applicant claims a certain number of feet along the vein or louo, anil m mucin sur face ground on either or both sides of tho some as aro nootfary for tho convenient work ing of tho mine.

In the Ciliary for September George Wake man funiifdiea an amusing collection of to ries illustrating "A Literal Turn of .Mind." We quote n few: This eame literal turn of mind, which I have been illustrating, is aometimes ued tin intentionnlly, and iierliajH a little maliciously, and thus becomes the poetry of wit instead of blunderers. Thus wo bear of a verv ix- lite and impressive gentleman who said to a boy in the street, "Floy, may I enquire where KobinsonV drug store 5s?" "Certainly, sir," said the boy, very respectfully. "Well, sir,' Mid the gentleman, after waiting a while, "where is it 7" "Ihavo not the least idea, yrr honor."1 said tha urchin. There was an other boy who was accosted by an atretic middle-aged lady with, -Mfoy, I want to go to Dover street," "Well, ma'am.' said the boy, "why don't you go there then " One day in Lake George a Jarty of gentlemen (drolling among the lutifol islands of the lake with rather bad Inck, copied a little fellow with a red shirt ami old straw bat, dangling a little over the side of the boat. -Hallo, boy !" said one of them, "what are yosi doing V "Ftsb in'," came the answer.

The total bullion returned from these Ufty flve tons is the sura of 1,015,50, eqnal to 18,52 per ton, or nearly four times as much as the best returns we wore aWo to get by any othor method of working. It is hardly necessary to pronounce such results a very de cided success, in view of which the Company havo accented the furnace. And the convic tion cannot be resisted by us that the Hagan process is a complete solution of the whole question of the treatment of sulphurot ores and that it opens up to the jmblic use the , wav to secure all that vast mineral wealth i which has been so long locked securely with in tho refractory ores of this coast. In this conviction the undersigned most heartily re commends the Hagan method of reduction to the earnest and careful investigation of nil in terested in quartz mining, beimj fully satis fied that such an investigation will lead to it general adoption for tho treatment of all rc fragtpry ores.
