Prospect, Ya., February - 18?u.
The weather to-day i- mihl," though the
ground is covered with snow, This is the
tout li snow of the winter. The temperature
of the air has been such that vegetation lias
i?een kept hack uioro tliau usual fur t li i< sea
son of the year. The huds of fruit trees are
scarcely swollen at all. Some of the early
dowering plant--, such as tlje hyacinth, dailo
( I ills, and jouquils, are ju-t peeping ahove
the ground; everything else seems to be
locked i:i the i?*y fetters of w inter, it is to
be feared that the excessive wet weather, lo
?jether with sudden freezings, has proved in
jurious to the wheat crop} yet this hardy
plant often rises through all dilli'Uhios,
and when most dispaircd of, through some
mysterious causes, happily disappoints the
| expectation of the sower. Advantage has
been taken of the lew fair (lavs of the early
part of the week to prepare tohacco-plaut
heds. The smoke rising over the hills in
V irions directions indicates that much has
i<e? u done in this important bii.sinc.-s. Many
farms are without labor. Thousands of
j :ier?-s of l uut are lyHig uncul'.ivated in this
neighboi hood s mply for ti e want of somc
|.(niy r.? w- rk them. Many large farms
h-t\ ?? on'y one or two hands, and some
have none ? not even a cook or a
wa-hcr Aontan ; and what is worse, they
are ii"t t" t?e hind f??r "money," to say no
thing "t " love/' The spirit of taking hold
and holding on was never more in requisi
tion than now. The education of hoys and
yiris must partake more of a mixed charac
ter than heretolore. Many tilings are to be
learned practically. A younti lady may theo
rize about cooking or washing, and it all
sounds very well; but it is another matter
to know how to make the light-bread rise
and turn it out in a good loaf, sweet and pal
atable; or to starch and iron the linen and
{lute the ruffles; and if the mistress of a
family does not know the essential points in
housekeeping, and has either to do every
thing herself or trust to a greenhorn of a
servant, you may depend upou it there will
be fuming, and fretting, and worry, and n
general moss-up every way.
Our population now comprises about lia.f
English in this neighboi hood, and still they
come. Thev do most of their labor within
their families, and lire engaged mostly in
.-hoop-raising in connection with the opera
tions of the farm. The open and uncultiva
ted lands here invite capital in this kind ol
enterprise. Oat.s are less cultivated than
heretofore. Grass plats are springing up
everywhere. Wore and more attention is
yeariv paid to tin; raising of clover, timothy,
orchard grn-s, and herd's grass, and the
turnip is cultivated largely as food for stock.
Hence there is an increase in the milk and
the butter, so essential to, or rather so indis
pensable, to good living. The paying prices
of tobacco and of wheat arc stimulating the
farmers to renewed exertions to do what
they can towards making big crops.

A Tough Story, bnt Beltovod by Bote*
tonrt People? Alleged Discovery of
n tfreat Silver Mine.
[From tl?o Flncaatte Herald. J
Tlio people in the southern portion of
Botetourt have l>een during the last two
weeks considerably excited by apiwrently
well-authenticated reports of the discovery
by certain parties of a silver mine in Tinker
Mouutain, said to be
THE RICDEST IN AMERICA.
We give the reports as we have hrard them,
some of which we know to be true:
Soiuo months ago an old man, travelling
on the road leading by Tinker Mountaiu,
was the recipient of many attentions from a
boy, in return for which the traveller told
the boy thai there was the richest silver
mine In the mountain (then in view) that
was ever known.
Ho said that over fifty years ago he and
two other men lound the mine, made "cords "
ot money,
K 1 1. LED ONE OF THK1R NCMUER IN A EIGHT,
pledged secrecy as to the mine, buried the
murdered man and his money, and sepa
rated.
The boy received directions as to how he
should tind the exact spot, and the old man
went on his way. After the lapse of some
time the boy got several of bis relatives In
terested in the story, and they proceeded to
the place, and after searching found the Sur
roundings just as the old man described
them? a stable, tools used in digging, and a
keg of silver. The parties, satisfied that
TUB OLD man's STORY WAS CORRECT,
returned, had five acres of laud surveyed,
and applied to the State for a title? the land
being a portion of unreclaimed mouutalu
territory.
The county surveyor surveyed t he land,
and received in payment some ot the silver
found.
The name of the young man whose kind
ness and generosity led to the discovery is
Black ; the names of (he other parties
we heard, but have forgotten.
A story has always been current in the
neighborhood that there was a silver mine in
this mountain, and several years ago a gen
tleman came from the "West to find it, but
was unsuccessful.
The same paper has the following state
ment in detail from a correspondent, who
writes from Mill C'reck, aud signs himself
" A "Believer " :
Some time ago an old man was travelling
through the Carvins Cove Valley afoot, car
rying quite a heavy carpet-sack. lie came
up with a final I boy, who, seeing hitn to be
a very old aud feeble man, protlered to carry
his bundle; which the old man accepted
thankfully. So they travelled until they
came lo the boy's home, ile invited the old
gentleman to
OTOl' AND CUT SOME DINNER.
which theold man accepted, and stayed with
i he family several days. When about to
leave the old gentleman protlered to pay the
bill, which was peremptorily declined; at
which, for a few moments, the old gentle
man seemed to be absorbed in deep thought;
after which ho turned to the boy (the one
who carried his carpet-sack) aud the follow
ing dialogue ensued :
Ulil Man: *? My kind lad I have a secret
which I had thought I wouid never divulge
to any one, and have kept it sacredly up to
the present time ; bur you have been so kind
to me, and decline all compensation therefor,
and at my age I shall never receive any fur
ther benefit from my secret ; so I am inclined
to give it to you (pointing lo the mountain).
That is Tinker Mountain, is it not?"
"Boy: u Yes, sir."
Oid Man : 4< Do you see that elilt of rocks
on the point of that ridge?"
Boy : " Yes. sir.'-'
Old Man : " Well, sir, more I halt half a cen
tury ago myself and two other young men
FOUND A SILVER MINE TUEKE,
?! nil under that roek we melted and moulded
our silver into coin. We got a large amount
ol' it? as much for each as we could carry.
One of our party got mad at something, and
for revenge threatened to divulge our secret.
We killed liiui, and buried him with his sad- 1
die-bags lull of coined silver in the same
grave. We also buried two bags of coined
silver belonging to him not far from that
rock. Wo had us much of our own as we
could t arry. You will also find a siedgcand
crowbar close about that rock ; .alio, we bad
a stable not far away. Alter we killed our
comrade one day a thunder-cloud passed
over us, and
A l OWEKI UI. TUUNWiKDOLT
struck in our rock-house, shivering it,
and tilling up our mining cavity so much
that it would cost a good deal of labor to
clear it out. Also, thinking that this thun
derbolt the vengeance of God upon our evil
deed, we left the place in a hurry, and left
things in the precise coudition that I have
described to you. You can easily find the
place with the signs I have given you. Go
and get it, and may the Lord prosper you
with it. Farewell, my kind little lad.
Now, Mr. Editor* this looks a good deal
like romance, but hear t he sequel. This
kind little lad associated with himself two
other older heads. They went, found the
ridge,' found the rock, found the sledge and
crowbar, although eaten up with rust.. Bet
ter than all, found one of the bags of coined
money? a fact 1 am told outside parties have
SKEN' AND HANDLED THE CQINED MONEY.
This tiling is in Botetourt county, three or
four miles south from Amsterdam, south
side of Tinker Mountain, on land that has
never been taken up. llut I am told the
three discoverers have laid a warrant on five
acres, and had it surveyed by the county
surveyor, who, I am told, received part of
his pay in the actual -found coin itself. There.
Sir. Editor, are the untarnished facts as rela
ted to me, and 1 give them to you just as I
received them.
Bisnors Paine and Early.? The Nash
ville Ad coca te contiius the following para
graph relative to the health of Hishop Paine,
who presided over the Virginia Conference
of the Methodist Episcopal Church fc'outh
last fall :
"We are very sorry to hear that Bishop
Paine is suffering greatly with rheumati>in.
He has been almost helpless for some time.
He fears that he will not be able to attend
the session of the Baltimore Conference,
which meets March 5th. Bishops Pierce and
Doggett, it is hoped, will be in attendance.
Bishop Paine took a severe cold in attending
a funeral in the country. We fervently pray
that lie may soon be relieved, aud that his
valuable life may long be preserved to the
Church."
The Advocafc also publishes the following
extract from a letter written by Kcv. Thomas
li. Early giving information of the health of
his father, the venerable Bishop Early :
"lie is very feeble? has fallen several
times in attempting to cross the floor alone;
but he is freer from pain than he used to be.
His mental faculties retain much of their
former strength, though his memory is fail
ing. He is resigned to the Divine will, and
patiently waiting the summons houie. He
is delighted to hear from his old friends, and
loves to talk about the interests of the
Church. lie wants very much to attend the
meeting of the Bishops in May, but we fear
that pleasure will be denied him. He sends
his kind regards to all his friends, among
whom wc shall comprehend all the readers
of this paper, who will reciprocate his feel
ings of regard and pray that his selling
sun? the going down being postponed as
long as God may see proper ? may suine
forth with some 4 dear, distinguished rays.' "r

Gbaduates.? [Baltimore American , 28th.]?
The thirty-third annual commencement of
the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery
took place at tho Concordia last evening.
At about lmlf-past 7 o'clock Dr. Gorgas, the
Dean of the faculty, opened the ceremonies
by introducing Rev. J. W. M. Williams, who
delivered a short, prayer; after which the
list of the graduates was announced by the
Dean, when each of them stepped forward
and received bin diploma. An interesting
feature of (lie exerciser was the nppcarance
of a lady graduate, Miss Emilie Foeking, of
Berlin, Prussia, who, having completed
the requisite course of study, and, accord
ing to the professors, also passed
the examination in a highly satisfactory
manner, was among the recipients of the
college diploma last evening. The gradua
tion of a young lady in dentistry is such a
novelty in this country that tbc appearance
of Miss Foeking created a ripple of surprise.

very handsomely, having a white silk dress
with pink overskirt. "W hen she stepped up
to receive her diploma she was erected bv a
thunder of applause from the spectators, and
was the recipient of numerous bouquets and
a handsome case of wax flowers. As stated
before, her permanent residence is in Ger

sole purpose of receiving her instructions in
dentistry. After a little further practice in a
dentist's oftice in this cily she projwses to re
turn to Berlin and become a practitioner in
that science.

Most of the graduates were besieged with
costly bouquets and baskets of wax flowers,
and in some in-tance* it was found neces
sary for them to leave the floral testimonials
on the stage until they could procure assist
ance to have them curled away. After the
degrees bad been conferred Dr. W. W. H.
Thaekston delivered the valedictory address,
in which be paid a high eulogium to the
late Dr. Bond, one of the founders and a

A New Revelation from Carlylf. ? A
good story is toid in literary circles in -New
York of an enthusiastic Carlyle club of ladies
and gentlemen of Cambridge and Boston,
who meet periodically to read their chosen
prophet aud worship at his shrine. One of
them, not imbued with sufficient reverence
to teach him better, feloniously contrived to
have the reader on a certain evening insert
something of his own composition into rhe
reading, as though it came from the printed
page and Cat lyle's hand. The interpolation
was as follows : '? Wood-spluttering organ
inns, in whatever place? not with Plutarcean
comparisons, apologies, nay, rather, without
any such apologies ? but born into the world
to say the thought that is in them? antipho
rial, too, in the main? butchers, bakers, and
candlestick-makers ; men, women, pedants.
Verily with you, too, 'tis uow^or never."
This paragraph produced great applause
among the devotees of Carl vie. The leader
of the club especially, a learned and meta
physical pundit, who' is the great American
apostle of Curly le, said nothing Carlyle had
ever written was more representative and
happy. The actual author of it attempted to
ask some questions about it and elicit expla
nation. These were not wanting, and,
where they failed, the stupidity of the qnc>
tion was the substitute presumption, deli
cately hinted. It reminds us of Dr. Frank
lin's incident in his life of Abraham, which
he used to read oil' with great gravity, appa
rently troin an open Bible, though actually
from his own memory. This parable i- pro
bably tlu; mo.-t perfect imitation of .Scripture
style extant. ? Springy field Republican.
TiikSkvkn Wonders.? The. seven wonders
of the world are among the traditions of
childhood, and yet it is a remarkable fact that
j ninety-nine persons out of a hundred who
might be asked the question could not name
them. They are the Pyramids, the mystery
ot the jsast, the enigma of the present, and
the enduring for the future ages of this
world. The temple, the walls and hanging
k gardens of Rabylon, the most celebrated
city of Assyria, and the residence of the
kings of that country after the destruction
of .Nineveh. The Chry.-eleph line statue nf
Jupiter Olympius, the most renowned work
of Phidias, the illustrious artist of Greece.
The statue was formed of gold, and
was silting on a throne almost touch
ing the summit of the temple, which
was 70 feet high. The temple of Diana at
Ephcsus, which was 220 years in building,
and which was 42") feet in length and 220 in
breadth, and supported by 127 marble eol
rumusof the Ionic order, CO feet high. The
mausoleum at llaliearnassus, erected in me
mory of Malleolus, the King of Caria, by his
wife Artemesia, B. C. 3o3. The Pharos at
Alexandria, a light-house creeled by Pto
lemy Soter, at the entrance of the harliorof
Alexandria. It was 4o0 feet high, and could
bo seen at a distance of 100 miies, and upon
which was inscribed '? King Ptolemy, to the
gods, the saviours, for the benefit of sail
ors.'' Lastly, the Colossus at Rhodes, a brazen
imajre of Apollo, 105 Grecian feet high, and
which was to be located at the entrance of
one of the harbors of the city ol Rhodes.
How they Act in Pittsburgh. ? Various
methods of evading the rigors of the new
liquor law are being suggested in Pittsburgh.
As soon as the bill is signed a prominent, sa
loon keeper proposes to transform his place
into a mammoth billiard saloon, with side
boards containing refreshments between each
table. The charge will be fifty cents per
game, and the players will be allowed full !
liberty to revel a mom; the refreshments. It
is also said that the Turnvercin proposes to
inaugurate a series of tri-weckly entertain
ments, composed of musical rind gymnastic
exercises, at which there will be a gratuitous
llow of lager.
A Masonic Impostor Telling a Charity

scription cannot l>c givm It is not known

ExciTmo Scehe ik Nrw York? A Thjkb
Loose is toe Streets.? The ahfp City of
Sparta, Captain Anderson, at this port, lias
brought four Asiatic elephant?, a Sumntran
black rhinoceros a horned horse, three black
tiger?, a mongoose, and a large number of
other rare animal* and bird*.
The smaller animals were pafely landed,
and the more difficult task of moving the
large rhinoceros was reaehed. He was con
fined in a huge box of thick planks, the cor
ners heavily bound with iron bands. Large
wooden rollers were placed under the cage,
and it was safely rolled to the pier, when sud
denly a cry was raised, *' Tiger loose 1" In
stantly consternation was spread around ;
the crowd of sight-seers dispersed in a mo
ment, flying in all directions.
The elephants, who were standing qnietly
in the street, were seized with a frenzy and
began a stampede. Chains were snapped
asunder as if mere threads, and the animals
were moving away at the utmost speed. One
reached "William street, and promptly de
molished the candy establishment of an aged
lady. The tiger's escape was a reality? a
terrible reality? for he had rcachedthe street
and fastened himself to the back of a horse
attached to a cart belonging to Morgan, Reed
& Co., and the poor beast lay dying. Police
man Munroe moved towards theanimal, who
was enjoying bis quiet repast, but the tiger,
raising his head, deigned not to notice the
minion of the law. and returned to his prey.
It cost him Uis life, for the officer, with a
well-aimed shot from his revolver, killed the
beast.
The timer's escape was due to a plank in
the bottom of his cage falling out as it was
being raised for removal, each animal having
been separately confined. He was valued at
$3,000.? New York Express, 2Gtfu .
Fatal Beating of a School-Dot.? A
school-boy named Willie Bruce, twelve years
of nge, bright and intelligent, died in Cin
cinnati the other day, suffering terrible
pains in the head. He had no bruises on bis
body, but something was evidently the mat
ter with his brain. When he grew sick he
told his mother that the schoolmaster had
beaten him on the head with a big book? the
Bible, perhaps it was. The boy grew worse,
and finally, after two or three weeks of
agony, he was freed from suffering. The
schoolmaster acknowledged that he was in
the habit of beating the children on their
heads with books as a means of correction,
but was so much in the habit of it that he
could not recollect this particular case. Ne
vertheless he gave Willie Bruce his death
blow. A heavy book leaves no mark on the
head to tell tides out of school, but it must
greatly disturb the contents of the cranium,
and it seems sometimes reached the scat of
life.
