t TIIE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPJI PII1LADELPIIIA, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1870. THE 0 OLD MINES OF NEW MEXICO. From Corrtxpondenee of (h Sprintjeld Republican Ab the last rays were fibinitg luridly, and we had begun to think mine-hunting a bur. den, we beheld a lone frame house, stack in the mountain Bide, with a rude poroh iillod with men smoking. Any one cvi liud a mine l)y careful looking for it. Tho process goue through ia usually this: "lue poor old miner, intent on a fortune, takes a f e v necessary tools and a little bacon, coft'ep, ted flour, and starts off alone on an old puny, if in a safe country; if not, with a party equipped like himself, and after risky aid tiresome search fiuds a lode. Sinking A hold lo got speoiaiens, he takes a piece of the rock, pounds it to J ut, jputa it in a large horn Ppoon and washes it. The gold sinks to the bottom. Do not imagine, however, that the miner's fortune iB made. The reason we are not all nabobs out here is because it needs one fortune to snake another out of. lie cnn do one of three things: Camp on the spot, pound that moun tain up by hand and wash out the precious metal, sell the claim, or set up a quartz crushing mill which costs any where from $20,000 up. He generally doe's the second, perhaps reserving a share himself. A quartz ie ill is a hnge steam engine which piopeln great iron stamps, in this mill fifteen in num. ber. Harnuni used to sny that ho wouldn't be hired for 500 to understand the princi ples of a simple steam engine; perhaps owing to our limited mechanical brains, wo had better confine ourselves to what we siff rather than try lucid explanations. We beheld a car running perpendicularly down the mountain loaded with dirt, which it tipped out by the mill and went out for more; a man shoveled said yellow dirt slowly into narrow deep troughs, when down came tho heavy stamps and smashed it to powder. Then a stream of water washed it down long, wide, tin-lined troughs; quicksilver had been put in them to catch the gold as it swept down. Having an affinity for gold, they unite, and the dirt passes away. Once a week or so, according to the richness of the mine, these troughs are scraped, and a whitish combina tion of gold and quicksilver is obtained, which is then subjected to the action of fire, retorted as it is called, the quicksilver pass ing off in vapor. It is smelted afterward,and when the bars of gold begin to increase I suppose the miner feels paid. Miners who work in mills, however, are paid regular wages and have no chance of profit except stealing nuggets if they choose. Not being able at the Aztec mills to see gulch mining or panning out, we repaired to the Moreno mines, near which has sprung up one of those iniquitous dens, a new town called Elizabeth. Armed with a pick and shovel, and clad in a costume which seemed to consist of a shirt and rubber boots, said boots looking about a yard and a half high, the miner picks and shovels the dirt down into the trough, often standing to his waist in water. To judge where the rich spots are, he frequently stops to "pan out." lie takes a sheet-iron pan, like a small milk-pan, and fills it with dirt just as it comes; then he dips the pan in water, and shaking it carefully the fine diit settles. Then he throws out the pebbles and dips it again, pouring off the water and dipping it perhaps twenty times. At last, in a teaspoonful of black sand which will not pour off, being as heavy a? the gold, you can see minute specks of yellow gold. If it pans out a cent's worth to the pan, a man could make a living at gulch mining. When it shows sixty or eighty cents to a pan, behold a coach-and-four in the happy miner's vision. One can understand the frontier expression . i bout individuals, "he don't pan out well." He yield of mines is, of course, varied; at the Aztec $10,000 a week has been found, but it is hardly safe to rely on the owner's story of his own mine, especially if he desires to sell. And now, with sluicing, tunnelling, flurn ing, gulching, smelting, and other unknown terms ringing in our ears, let us sum up. It is usually exciting to envy one to view other people's possessions, but "we still con template with serenity our empty pockets, if they can only be filled by our turning miner. It would take an extraordinary prospect, say five dollars a man or so, to induce us to shoulder a pick and scour among Indians for lodes or leads, or to stand all day in rubber underclothes seeking yellow fly-specks in btishels of dirt. Gold hunting is like all other lotteries, one prize perhaps and a thou sand of disheartening blanks, besides the diseases fastened on the miner working in the close, noisome tunnel, or breathing the foul mercurial air in the retorting room. Though the majority of miners are drudges, once a miner always a miner. The unini tiated can hardly understand the fascination of "grazing without alariat,"but aa for gold we prefer to shovel it in civilized ditches for certain sovereigns, to relying on finding those coins in their crude state. London Paupers. The metropolitan pau perism, which for some weeks has been falling to the level it held in 18C9, has at length passed below that mark. In the first week of September last year there were 128,344 in door and outdoor paupers on the London re lief lists; now it appears from the weekly table of pauperism the corresponding number is 127,837, or 500 less than in 18(10. This better fortune, however, is limited to .the east district, which, taken alone, stands ac credited indeed with a diminution in its pau per ranks of 3G00 individuals. The other districts show, on the contrary, a more or less increase. The western unions relieved 300 more; the northern unions, 1750 more; the central, 750; and the southern, which embrace the metropolitan parts of Sur rey and Kent, 300 more. The three contigu ous unions of St. Pancraa, Islington, and Hackney are still among the greatest offenders on the weekly table. St. Pancras relieved in the first week of the current month 1050 more paupers man in tne nrst wees of September, Islington, COO more; and Hackney, 350 more. The outdoor relief scandal in the last-named place will be fresh in. the memory of ar readers. A man and his wife bad, by representing themselves as destitute, during four years or so defrauded the guardians of. weekly sums which were stated upon their trial for the ofiense to have amounted on the whole to 100. They might, and probably would, have been cheating still, only they quarrelled with their neighbors, who in retaliation ex posed their systematic swindling. The rate payers of Hackney, in the absence of protec tion from their own officers, are indebted to their immunity from the continuance of the felony to the vicarious interference of ine pponBible gossips. Carrying our view of the outdoor pauperism of the metropolis back to 18C7, we have very nearly 10,000 more claim- ants under this objectionable category now than three short years ego. Could the out door relief books be simultaneously purged of fraudulent recipients of every kind, of men and women who notoriously leave the union pay-table to go to the beershop or the gin palaoe, or otherwise cheat the guardians, we have little hesitation in savins that the excess over 1K7 would toon disappear. But the wholesale frauds practiced by the ou'door paupers must bp met by a well-organized system of detec tion. Recent disclosures show that it must be operative beyond the routine and too often perfunctory visit of the relieving oflicer. As previously Lintftd, we think the guardians should strt-t gthen their hands by resorting to Scotland-yard. They have some precedent for m eking aid there in the police supervision of the union caRnal wards. . The scrutiny, to be thoroughly effective, should be, so far as pos sible, simultaneous throughout the metro politan area. Surely this is a work quite Vi it hin the competence and strength of Mr. Gopcben's staff to plan p.nd rightly set in mo tion. Thoroughly executed, the benefit to the rntr payers would be something; but the deserving poor when winnowed from the rognes would reap the greater good. Vail Mull Gazette. The German North Polar Expedition. The crew of the Little Hansa, the companion vessel of the Germania, the principal vessel of the second German North Polar Expedition, have just returned to Germany, after the loss of tbeir vessel, and enduring extreme hard ships. The two vessels went out from Bre mer haven in June, 18G!, the steamer Germa nia, under the command of Captain Koldewey, end the sailing ship Hansa, under the com mand of Captain Hagemann. Tho following telegram was received in Bremen, dated Copenhagen, Sept. 1: "The Hansa was crushed by ice on the 10th of October, lsc.t, on the east coast of Greenland, in 71 deg. north latitude. The crew are saved and in good health in Copenhagen. Hagemann." The crew arrived by the ship Constance, thir teen persons in all. They give the following account of their voyage and perils: The Hansa was fast in the ice on the Glh of September, 18G!) (in seventy-four degrees north latitude and seventeen west longitude), and on the ltth of October (in seventy-one degrees north latitude and twenty-one degrees west longi tude), she was left by the crew, who took refuge with their boat upon an immense ice field. They Bpent two hundred days upon this floating mass, partly in a house built of coal, partly in a small boat, and during this time were driven two hundred and fifty geo graphical miles southward. The ice field was at first nearly seven (geographical or Ger man?) miles in circumference, but decreased day by day until at last it had only a circum ference of two hundred yards. They finally got in the boats in the sixty-first de gree, and after a seven days'Jvoyage they ar rived on the i;th of June at the settlement of Frederichsthal, from whence to Copen hagen they came in the ship Constanoe. The scientists, Drs. Zaube and Bachholz, are well, and now in Hamburg. REAL ESTATE AT AUOTION. J" O T 1 C K.
