THURSDAY EVENING. JULY 26.
A Camei/= Revenge ?An English trav?
eler in the East gives the camel a very poor
character. According to his account the
creature is from first to last undomesticated
and savage, rendered serviceable not by
tamene-8 but by stupidity. One passion
aloae be possesses namely, revenge, in the
carrying out of which he shows an unexpect?
ed decree of fur-thoughteu malice, united
with all the cold stupidity of bis usual
character. One iustance of this I well re?
member. A lad of about fourteen had con?
ducted h iame camel, laden with wood, io
another village about half an hour's dis?
tance As tbe animal loitered or turned
out of tbe way it:- driver struck itj repeated?
ly, and harder than .t reems to htive thought
he had a right to do. But not finding the
occasion favorable for taking; immediate
revenge, it bode i;.* lime; nor was that time
long in coming. A few days later the same
lad" had to reconduct tbe beast, unladen, to
his own village. When they were about
half way on tbe road, and at some distance
from any habitation, the camel suddenly
stoppe')', looked deliberately around in every
direction to assure itseli that no one was in
sight, und finding t he road clear of passen?
gers, made a step forward, seized the un?
lucky boy's bond in its monstrous mouth,
lifting him into the air, and flung him down
again with tbe upper part of hisskuli com?
pletely totn oil. Having thus c-ati-fied its
revenge, tbn brute quietly resumed its
pace toward tbe village, us though nothing
were> tbe n.alter, till rome men. who bad
observed ih>j whole prrx-ediug, though un?
fortunately at ton great ii distance to be able
to afford ttt.ieiy help, came up ami killed

GOLD MINING.
THE GOLD MINING COMPANY.
LOCATION?Ml*SIC NCWNTAl??. UOMAVK COUNTY, ARIZONA.
{INCORPORATED UNDER THE LAWS OF ft?5t VIRGINIA ?
CAPITAL STOCK,- 8625,000:
NUMBER OF SHARES, ?*JT..OOs?. EACH VTJ7A PAID AND NON-ASSESSABLE
The capital stock of this company is $625,000, divided into 625,000
shares of $1 each.
The company is incorporated under the laws of West Virginia, and
the stock is non-assessable, and carries with it no personal liability to
the holder.
The Gold Mining Company (location, Music Mountains, A. T.,) is as
sound a mining enterprise as was ever placed on the market, and Its
possibilities have never been exceeded. Every .share should double in
value within a year, and they may quadruple, as they are based on
property that would ordinarily have been capitalized ten (10) times as
great on account of its known richness and promise.
The shares are made small so that anyone can invest. Subscriptions
for five shares are as welcome as those for hundreds.
Every dollar of earnings will go to the stockholders in dividends; as
there is nothing else that they can be used for.
A Wisewell mill, capacity '20 tons per day, with powerful machinery,
has been purchased and will be on the ground ready for erection nt the
mine within the next thirty days!
The solid basis upon which the company is founded and the practical
proofs of the richness of the mine have already secured the confidence
of the public, and the stock has steadily advanced in selling value
Within the last few days bona tide sales have been made at par.
There is no better stock on the market for a permanent investment.
For full information in regard to this Mine apply to the
