In AM/enterprisos which have had for their object the development of thenational resources, whether Railroad, Coal, Copper or Oil, as will be recollected, those wlio/bvrt took hold of them mudo money, some larger amounts than others, according to their investments. Mining operations in the fields of (’dorado and Nevada now mainly engross the public attention, and already several Companies have been or ganized upon Ledges in these districts, and are actively at work. When their “returns” now on the way in the shape of “bars of silver” und “bricks of gold” are received, the enthusiasm which already has mani fested itself, as may be concefved, will be greatly increased. * As will be seen by advertisement on our 3d page, the Virgin Cold Mining Company presents especial inducements to those wishing an interest in these auriferous re gions: those desiring to avail themselves of the opportunity now presented of secur ing one or more of the §lOO “originul in terests” should at oneo send in their sub scriptions. Cheat Xovei.tv. —The greatest novelty and excitement in the city still exists at the (lift Store of Messrs. llusted ct Co., No. 66' North (pieen Street. It is daily and nightly crowded with visitors, who never leave without investing a quarter, which is always sure to draw for them some valua ble and handsome present the shape of some excellent article of silverware, fancy goods, eh-. (>ne of our employees happened in yesterday evening and invested a quar ter, drawing a very line silver Ice Pitcher. All that have not yet invested, should no fail to try their good fortune. Strawhkuiuks.—Now that the strawber ry season is approaching, it might be inter esting to know that in Sicily, it is the cus tom to crush the strawberries with white powdered sugar, and to squeeze the juice of an orange or two over them. This, says tho editor of the t iardencr's Chronicle, makes a most', fragrant and agreeable compound, superior to strawberries and cream. The editor ispo enthusiastic about it that ho thinks it worth jvhile to make a journey to Sicily to be initiated into this mode of eating strawberries. Til i:Tax on Petroleum.—The President lias approved the joint resolution providing that hereafter oil, not exceeding in specific gravity thirty-six degrees Baum hydrome ter, the product ofuresidiuunofdistillation, crude petroleum and crude oil, tho product of the first ami singlo distillation of coal, shale, asplmltum, peat or other bituminous substances, shall, from ai\d after the pas sage of this joint resolution lie exempt from nternal tax or duty. (•Kxunors. —Wo love a generous, whole souled man, and when we hearof one, take pleasure in making his acts of kindness known to the public. Wo learn that Mr. GeorgoS. Rowbotham, of the First National Store of this city, knowing by experience of the beneficial effects of !)r. Mishler’s Bitters in cases of cholera morbus, dysen tery, Ac., upon hearing of the arrival of a vessel at New York with cholera on board, and hoping it might prove beneficial to the sufferers, purchased a do/.eu bottles of this celebrated Bitters and forwarded it to Dr. Bissell, the physician in charge of tho Cholera Hospital in New' York Bay. Tho Adams Express Company, upon learning of Mr. Rowbolhum’s generosity, forwarded the same free of charge. Mr. Rowbotlmm is proverbial for similar acts of generosity both at Reading and this city. Government Deposits,— ln answer to a letter from the Cashier of the First Na tional Bank of this city, tho Comptroller of the Treasury writes as follows : Treasury Department, ) OFFICE OF CuMIT'U OF TH E CURRENCY, Wash incton, May 10, !BUii. J Dear >Sir: Your letter of the 9th inst., is received. In reply, J have lo state that I consider depositing money by National Banks with private bankers, bearing inter est and payablo on call, a violation of the twenty-ninth section of the Currency Act, when simh deposit exceeds one-tenth part of the capital of the bank making such de posit. Very respectfully yours, F. CLARK, Comptroller of the Currency Odd Fellows.— At the annual session of the Grand Lodge I. (). O. i*\, of Pennsylva nia, held in Philadelphia, on Tuesday, the following officers were installed : Worthy drain!

Rules of Health. —Rise early—bathe frequently—exorcise freely in the open air —take your meals at regular hours—eat slowly—masticate your food well—abstain from intoxicating drinks—dress warm and not so tight as to impede the functions of the organs or a free circulation of the blood —retire early in well ventiUTted apartments. The License Bill.— Wo learn that the bill changing the mode of grauting licenses to restaurants, failed to pass the Senate and did not become a law. The bill had passed the House of Representatives, but when it reached the Senate it was strenuously op posed and defeated. Wo learned, from different somces, that it had become a law, but it appears we were misinformed, and it was defeated as we have stated above. Licenses to restaurants will, therefore, be issued by the County Treasurer as hereto fore. The Notes of State Banks.— After the Ist of June, the notes of all State Banks will not be received in payment of debts at the counters of the National Banks, or on de posit, except at such a discount as will pay the expense of returning these . notes to th‘e Banks that issued them, and exchanging them for National'Curreucy. This is done on account of the high tax imposed by the Federal Government on the circulation of all State Banks that is out after the date named. The effect of this will be to give us u uniform paper currency. Groquet.— One of the most delightful of games' is croquet. It is getting to be “all the rage,” and ought to be. It is a game to enlist the interest of the old, the young and the middle aged ; the lighthearted and the careworn ; the gentleman and the gen tlewoman. It is cleanly enough for the most fastidious, masculine enough for the most manly, and boisterous enough for the most rugged and mirthful. We see no rea son why this graceful and exhilerating game should not, and there is every reason found ed in the health and happiness of bar peo ple why it should become fashionable and universal. * Country dealers who buy their candies, fruits, nuts, ikc., from Geo Miller <fc Sons, 610 Market St., Pliila., always get prompt attention, fresh articles, good weight, and satisfaction in every other respect.

Literary. —The Gcethean Literary So ciety, of Franklin land Marshall College of this city, celebrated their twenty-fifth anniversary at Fulton Hall lost evening The stage was handsomely festooned with flags above and evergreens below. From a flag in the centre of the festoons was sus pended a portrait of Goethe, above which was the motto of the Society—“ Genestbo Phos”—neatly executed in letters of ever green. Scattered at different places on the stage, were several pieces of Btatuary, beautifully adorned with flags, being busts ofWashington,Webster, Clay,franklin and other patriots and orators. Thafaculty of the College were seated upon the fight side of the stage, ans the speakers of the evening upon the loft. The Hall, as usual, was filled to overflowing, and the audience present represented the beauty, fashion and intelli gence of the city, and was very attentive throughout the evening. The exercises were opened with an ap propriate prayer by Rev. A. H. Kremer, Pastor of the First German Reformed Church of this city. The Salutatory Oration was then deliv ered by Jame 3 Crawford, of Baltimore, Md., which was a fair effort, being pretty well delivered, and was principally de voted to a demonstration of the power and effects of true eloquence upon the masses of the people, and as to how they could be swayed by the real orator. His manner was easy, and his tone distinct and clear. By proper cultivation we think he will make a good speaker. Oration— “ Birth and Death”—J. S.Stahr, Applebachvillo, Pa. This was a-well writ ten production, being a sound and practi cal discourse upon the above subject, in which the speaker endeavored to show how essential the one was to the other, in the same manner in which production was to destruction, and liow each followed the other in turn. The delivery was tolerable, the speaker not being as distinct in tone us he might have been, but the effort was a creditable one. Oration —“ La Marseilles”—James Fer riere, Baltimore, Md. This was a beauti fully written encomium on the Marseilles 4.17 A. M. 0.30 “ 9.10 “ 10.17 “ 8.10 P. M. 5.40 •• 1.42 A. M. 11.15 “ 12.15 P.

The speaker spoke en tirely too fast, and a little indistinctly. Euloyt/ —“Gustuvus Adolphus”—A. C Geary, Pennsburg, Pa. This was a well written tribute to the memory of Gustavus Adolphus. It was delivered in too low a tone of voice, but was a pretty good effort notwithstanding. Oration—" The Struggle between Liberty and Despotism ”—F. R. Gerhard, Womels dorf, Pa. This was a fino production, de voted to a history ol' that great struggle, portraying the fruits and results thereof and showing the proper course to be pur sued in order to preserve the blessings of liberty to future generations. He thorughty understood his subject and handled it well ; he paid splendid tributes to the mem ory of Washington,jllampden, nnd William of Orange, asnpostles of Liberty. Ilis delivery was made with some spirit, but lacked distinctness in tone. Oration—" Thomas Paine”—ll. C. G Ueber, Lower Bern, Pa. This was a credi table production, being a history of' the life and death of Thomas Paine, in which he paid a glowing tribute to him as a patriot, who, during the Revolutionary avar be tween this and our mother country, gave his valuable aid and talents to tho patriot cause, while lie condemned in severest terms his after-life, stigmatizing his “Age of Reason ” as a blot upon his former honor able and glorious career. But notwithstand ing this he maintained that his memory should bo respected. This speaker also in fused some spirit and emphasis into his de livery, but spoke a little too fast, and his position on the stage was too far back, which prevented him from being heard at the back part of the hall. Poem— “ The Voyage of Columbus ” Tilghman Derr, Turbotville, Pa. This was a fairly written poem, surpassing those of several years previous. The delivery lacked distinctness, and wus spoken in too low a tone. Gaithcan Oration— “ The Quaker Fathers.” A. B. Martin, Murtinsburg, Pa. This, be ing tho highest honor on tho programme* proved to be tho gem of thh occasion, as it was tho best written production of the eve ning. The delivery was excellent, and the address whs enthusiastically applauded. It was devoted to the history of our Quaker Fathers, who settled this Commonwealth, dwelling in glowing and eloquent terms upon thbir honorable life, showing tho blessings and good results therefrom. His depiction of the fanaticism of tho Puritan settlers of Massachusetts, who hung men and women for their religious opinions, and the contrast he drew between them and the Quaker fathers of Pennsylvania, who re spected even the rights of the savage, was striking and produced a deep impression upon the audience. The Gcethean Oration was appropriately awarded. The exercises were interspersed with choice selections of music by the City Cor net Band, and were concluded with a dis. missal of the audienco with a benediction by Prof. T. C. Porter, D. D. llow to Treat Furniture.— When the the polish on new furniture becomes dull it caiHie perfectly renewed by the follow ing process: Take a soft sponge wet with cleaji cold water and wash off the article. Then take a soft chamois skin and wash it clean; rinse it dry as you can by wringing in the hands, and wipe the water off the furniture, being careful to wipe only one. jVever use a dry Chamois on varnished work. If the varnish is defaced and shows white marks, take linseed oil and turpentine in equal parts ; shake them well in a phial and apply a very small quantity on a soft rag, until the color is restored ; then, with a clean soft rag wipe the mixture entirely off. Iu deeply carved work the dust cannot be removed with a sponge. The cause of varnished furniture becoming dull and the reason why oil and turpentine restore its former polish, it will be appropriate to explain. The humidity of the atmosphere and the action of the gas, cause a bluish white coat ing to collect on.all furniture, and show conspicuously on bright polished surfaces, such as mirrors, pianos, cabinet-ware aud polished metal. It is easily removed, as previously directed. The white scratches on furniture are caused by bruising tho gum of which varnish is made. Copal var-, nisli is composed of gum copal, linseed oil, and turpentine or benzine. Copal is not soluble as other gums are in alcohol, but is dissolved by heat. It is the foundation of varnish, as the oil is used only to mnke the gum tough, and the terpentine is required only to hold the other parts in a liquid state, and evaporates immediately after the application on furniture. The gum then becofnes hard and admits of a line polish. Thus, when the varnish is bruised, it is the gum that turns white and the color is restored by applying the oil and turpentine, If the mixture is left on the furniture, it will amalgamate with the varnish and be come tough—therefore the necessity of wip ing it entirely off at once. To varnish old furniture, it should be rubbed with pulver ized pomic stone and water, to take off the old surface, and then apply varnish reduced with turpentine to the consistency of cream. Use an elastic bristle brush. If it does not look well, repeat the rubbing with pomice stone, when dry, and varnish again. Caution—New Counterfeit.— A new butch of counterfeit §2O National Bank Notes have made their appearance in the city of Pittsburg. Fearing, lest some notes of this character may be brought to this city, it would be well for all to be ou their guard for them. We clip the following des cription from tho Pittsburg Dispatch: “The detective police ascertained that no less than fiveofthenewcounterfeits2onotes on the First National Bank of Portland, Conn., have all been passed in this city. The bills are supposed to be printed from the same plate used in the fraud of the In dianapolis Bank, and while their general appearance is calculated to deceive almost any one, yet they will not stand the test of scrutiny for one moment, the engraving boing rough, course and much darker than the genuine. Very few persons, however, do more than glance at a note which appears familiar to them, and especially is this the case with the National Bank issues, since the counterfeits are comparatively few. The note shown to us as a sample of the new counterfeit was actually taken on deposit at one of our banks, but this may be attribu ted to the inattention of the Clerk, rather man the good uppearance of the bill. The circumstahce shows that persons not in the habit oi handling money should be doubly cautious in receiving bills of large denom ination. “Twenties” on the First National Bank of Portland, Conn., should not be taken at all withoutthorough examination.^ Pic-Nic.—A Grand Social Pic-nic will be held in “The Grove,” near the Eagle Hotel at Smithville, Providence twp., this county on Saturday, June 9th, which will prove an interesting affair.

Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun. Washington, May 10, SENATORIAL SPITE. The Senate manifested a little spite against the President, by laying his veto message upon the Colorado State bill upon the table, and proceeding to other business. This was contrary to usage, and also to the positive requirements of tho cofTstitution. Knowing that they could not pass this bill, as they did the civil rights' bill, over the President’s veto, they decline any consideration of the President’s objections. It is not probable that in ordinary times Congress would de stroy the equulity of our repsesentation in the States, by admitting bogus States, but the Republican majority deemed it expedi ent, by any moans, to acquire au increase Qf strength to sustain them in their conflict with the President. TIIE FIVE PER CENT. BILL, More opposition is manifested to the bill for tho consolidation of the public debt in five per cent, bonds, Ac., than was antici pated. The chief objection to it is that it exempts the United States bonds from tax ation by the government itself, or by States and municipal corporations. The States are eager to avail themselves of this source of revenue, as are nearly all our cities which are burdened with debt. There is no doubt that the question of taxing the gov ernment securities will bo brought into the next Presidential canvass, and certainly into the elections for Congress. The party that favors the highest rates of taxation for the benefit of Stales, towns and counties will probably obtain tho greatest number of voles. Some other and minor objections to the scheme may be easily obviated. It is stated that capitalists have already ten dered large amounts in exchange for the proposed United States five per cent, thirty year bonds, without reference to any ex emption of the same from government tax ation. ADJOURNMENT. Early in June Congress will have dispos ed of the reconstruction question, and prob ably bvabundoning the tusk as hopeless. Tho majority will clamor for adjournment, and it will no doubt be carried. Congress aban doning the field, to the President, will go into the full elections under great disadvan tage. cowan’s speech. A quarter of a million copies of the last speech of Senator Cowan will be sent from here immediately. MR. STANTON. My dispatch of last night should have read that Mr. Stanton is vigorously antago nizing the enemies of the policy of the Presi dent. * Correspondence of the N. Y. Tribune. JEFF. DAVIS. It is said that the indictment under which Jeff. Davis will be tried has been drawn to meet tho provisions of tho act to-punish treason, passed July 17, 1862, tho second section of which provides that nny person who shall hereafter set on foot, or engage in any Rebellion against the authority of the United States, shall be imprisoned not ex ceeding 10 years, or be fined not exceeding $lO,OOO and the liberation of all his slaves— a tremendous method of making treason odious. It is also said that Justice Field of the Supreme Court has expressed the opinion that this section repeals all previous provisions of the law for the punishment of treason. Johnson’s plan for the trial of Jeff, is regarded here as a farce and a mock ery. | Correspondence of the Age.) Washington, May 17. MESSAGE from the president. The President sent to the House to-day a message, accompanied by a communication from Lieutenant General Grant, relative to the necessity for the speedy passage of an army bill. The Lieutenant General savs that a large number of troops are needed in the country between the Missouri river and the Pacific coast, and a small number in the Southern States. He also says that tho volunteers now iu servico are practi cally useless, on account of dissatisfaction at being retained after the expiration of their term of enlistment. He thinks the Senate Army Bill, as passed by that body some weeks ago, as unobjectionable as it is possible to make a bill, and favors its pas sage by the House. SENATORIAL CONTEST IN CONNECTICUT. It is reported around the Capitol to-day that throe Republican members of the Con necticut State Senate have voted against going into joint convention for the purpose of electing a United Slates Senator in place of Mr. Foster. Their votes give the oppo sition a majority, and if adhered to will •reveal an election by the present Legisla- ture. Tho report creates considerable ex citement among Radical members of Con gress, who charge that executive influence is at work in that quarter. The better impression is that it is an effort on the part of Senator Foster’s friends to secure his re election, or else defeat his competitor. (Special Despatch to the Public Ledger. 1 tiie assassination plot. Washi noton, May|2oth.—On the 9th inst., •eleven days ago, I telegraphed you that the •committee had concluded to abandon the charge against Davis of complicity in the assassination plot, and this intelligence is now semi-officially confirmed. I will here add, in addition to my despatch of the 9th, that the Committee has not been able to secure any additional evidence of a trust worthy character to that already in its pos session, and which was given at the time o f the trial of Mrs. Surratt and her accom plices. This evidence, it is known, the President disbelieves, and hence the un willingness of tho Committee to recommend the trial of Davis upon it. the serenade to the president and HIS CABINET. This is most anxiously looked for, but fdiere are dou ts now whether it will come •otf before the return of the Secretary of :Slate from Auburn. The greatest interest ■of course, attaches to Mr. Stanton, as it is, kmown, or rather asserted strongly by hi friends, that he will take occasion to come oat roundly and unreservedly in support the President’s policy. The speech, it is claimed, will be a bombshell, and hence ibe anxiety to hear it. Curiosity is also on tijp-toe with reference to Mr. Harlan, but lag will probably prefer to keep silent and not respond to the sweet strains of the hand. THE TAX BILL A session of the Ways and Means Com mittee was held yesterday, at which testi mony upon various subjects was taken, in cluding the indispensable articles of Tobacco and Whiskey. It will be hard, however, to move the Committee on the latter. What they will do with Leaf Tobacco remains to be seen, but the most persuasive efforts are making to induce them to report it as a tax able article. The amendments already pro posed by the Committee have generally been concurred in by the House, while those originating in the Hbusehave, for the most part, been defeated. The end of the bill will, no doubt, be reached by the 25th, when the Tariff Bill wm be'ifl order for the Monday following, Correspondence of the New York Times. TRIAL OF- DAVIS. Attorney General Speed, who returned from the West last week had a lengthy in terview with the President on Friday last ; relative to the trial of Jeff Davis and the indictment fonnd by the Grand Jury at Norfolk. Mr. Speed gave his opinion as to the legal character of the indictment, which opinion lam not authorized to state. The President imparted to the Attorney General the substance of the views of Chief Justice Chase about the propriety of holding Court in Richmond. The position of Judge Chase I have given you in a former dispatch. His fears were that there was doubt among the military officers in Virginia as to the ef fect of the Peace Proclamation, and whether ’or not martial law is abrogated. While these doubts exist Judge Chase is not willing to preside in a United States Courtin Virginia, Chief Justice shall hesitate, or enter tain such tears when the next term of the United States Circuit Court is about to convene, the President will issue an order expressly declaring that the civil law is su preme in all matters in which the Civil Courts have jurisdiction. It is reported that the Attorney-General has no confidence in the indictment found against Davis under the supervision of Judge Underwood, but it is proper to 9tate that the report does not come from the best authority. THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. There is scarcely a doubt that the Senate will adopt the Reconstruction Committee’s proposed amendment to the Constitution already passed in the House, striking out, however, the third section, disfranchising certain classes until 1870. Such is the very general opinion expressed by Senators of the radical persuasion. For the Intelligencer. The Soldiers’ Convention Sonfc time since I noticed in the papers a call by Gen. Hartranft, for the honorably discharged soldiers to meet in the various legislative districts in tho State to elect delegates to a Convention at Pittsburg, on June sth. There was also a call for the sol diers of this county to meet at the Court House on Saturday last to elect delegates to the Pittsburg Convention. The object of the Pittsburg Convention is not stated, nor was the object of the County Convention stated, but when it met it soon became manifest that the call was made for the pur pose of getting up au indorsement from the soldiers for Thad. Stevens, Sumner A Co. As I take a great interest in everything which relates to soldiers, I attended tb 0 Convention expecting, as a matter of course, that all honorably discharged soldiers had an equal voice there, but judge of my sur prise when I found that only some live or six private soldiers were present, and some lifteen or twenty “ ex-shoulderstraps.” The latter gentlemen were seated inside tho bar. Tho privates outside on the benches. Al though Gen. Fisher invited them to come up and participate in the proceedings, they did not move from their seats, as it was . evident that the meeting was not lor their bonelit. Now those lifteen or twenty “ex shoulderstraps” presumed to express the wish of tho ten thousand honorably dis charged soldiers of Lancaster county They passed resolutions, elected delegates aud adjourned, feeling satisfied no doubt that their orders are now issued and the rank aud filo are bound to obe}’. Ah, gentlemen, you forget yourselves when you presume to speak for the rank aud file. Have you forgotten that we who car ried the muskets are no longer under your c outrol? Have you forgotten that we are now free men and your equals at that? Or does the spirit which controlled you when you commanded us still possess you? I>o you still think you command and we must obey? Have you yet the idea of controlling us by threats and otherwise if we choose to think for ourselves, and vote for whom we please? If you have those ideas, I assure you tiiey never can be carried in effect. We do our own thinking, and uo action on your part will for one moment turn us from pursuing “the even tenor of our ways,” and vote for whom we please. Your reso lutions adopted, no doubt reflect your opin ions, but they do not accord with ours. Your sneer at President Johnson may suit your purpose and that of your political masters, but the rank and file repudiate such sentiments and stand by our noble President in his manly effort against the disunionists of the North. You mav try and palm this meeting off as a grand Sol diers’ Convention, but no one will be hum bugged when he looks at the names of the officers of the meeting, the names of the persons who constitute the committees, Ac. and finds but one or two privates reprel seuted. llow does this happen? The calj was for Convention. The propor tion of officers to enlisted men is as 1 to do. Yet, among the officers and commit tees the names of but two privates appear. And among the twenty dele gates elected to attend the Convention at Pittsburg there are but two privates! Why was this ? Tho answer is plain. You desire to command us again, and order us to vote for your candidate for Governor. We are free men and emphatically refuse to obey your orders any longer. We read such papers as we take a fancy to, nnd no orders from Headquarters can prevent us. The guard house no longer stares us in the face. “Bucking and gagging” and “extra duty” for exercising the right of freemen by voting for our favorite candidates, are among the things that were. And I assure you they are now remembered by the pri vate soldiers, and when the time comes for voting they will vote to sustain the princi ciples they fought for, without iuquiring whether it is against the orders of tho “Cap tain.” A Private Soldier.

NATHANIEL MAYFAIR, Esq jun 30-lywJ Brooklyn, Kings Co.. N. Y. A NEW AND GRAND EPOCH IN MEMCINI; Dr. Magglel is the founder of a uew Medical System: The quantitarians, whose vast Internal doses enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must give pre cedence to the man who restores health and appetite, with from one to two of his extraordinary Pills, and cures the most virulent sores with n box or so of his wonderful uud all-healing Salve. These two great specifics of the Doctor are fast superseding all the stereotyped nostrums of the day. Extraordinary cures by Maggiel's Pills and Salve have opened the eyes of the public to the inefficiency of the (so called; remedies of others, and upon which people have so long blindly depended. Maggiel’s Pills are not of the class that are swallowed by the dozen, and of which every box ful taken creates an absolute necessity for another. One or two of Maggiel’s Pills suffices to place the bowels in perfect order, tone the stomach, create an appetite, and render the spirits light and buoyant! There Ls no grlpfng, and no reactiou in the form of constipation. If the liver is affected, its functions are restored; and if the nervous system is feeble, it is in vigorated. This last quality makes the medicines very desirable for the wants of dellcute females. Ulcerous and eruptive diseases are literally extinguished by the disinfectant power of Maggiel’s Salve. In fact, it Is here announced that Maggiel's Bilious, Dyspeptic and Diarrhea Pills cure where all others fall, While for Burns, Scalds, Chilblains, Cuts and all abrasions of the skin Maggiel’s Salve Ls infallible. Sold by J. Maggie!, -13 Fulton Street, New York, and all Drug gists, at 25 cts. per box. £3" MORE VALUABLE THAN GOLD! Bryan's Life Pills Purify the Blood.

Americans are proverbial for tho avidity and commendable zeal with which they par ticipate in enterprises having for their objeot the development of our national resources. At one time "Railroads”—at another "Coal”— then "Copper” or " iron,” and more recently “ Oil ” have been the all-absorbing topics. In all these several enterprises, as will bo recollected, those who jirst took hold of tnem made money; some larger amounts than others, according to their Investments. Mining operations In tho Helds of Colorado and elsewhere now mainly engross tho publlo attention. Considering that several such com panies have been already organized—that tuoy are now at work—that the reports from their mines are highly favorable—that It Is kuown that at tho present time there aro on the way from the leuge.s oi Nevada and Co,orado numer ous "barsor silver” and ."bricks o( gold,” It Is believed that already mani fested on tho subject will, In a Utile time, bo so greatly inoreaseu on the receipt and exhibit of these "returus," that Innumerable companies will spring up, whoso a'oek, belug based at tho then greatly Inflated i rtccsof ledges, will neces sarily bo less deslrablo than that now to be hod —thereby giving to those whoavall themselves of tho occasion now presented, of securing "original Interests," an opportunity of then disposing of the large amount of slock each holder receives, at a handsome advance. * With theso preliminary remarks tho follow ing Pbospectus is respectlully pre-ented. The property of tho Company proposed to bo organized by the salo of theso "original inter ests” couslsts of tho following Ledges, all situ ated within a radius of flvo miles or Central City, Colorado. TRAIL CREEK DISTRICT. Mammoth Lode,*. Never Fall Lode.t Vauderbllt Loae,;. Union Lode, Gold Ophir Lode,.. TRAIL RUN DISTRICT. Holman Lode,, 1 . BANNER DISTRICT. St. Louis Lode,. Pensacola Lode UPPER FALL RIVER DISTRICT. Abo Lincoln Lode, Washou Lode Minnie, or “ Louisa " Lode, Riddle Lode,?. This is to certify Unit I have carefully exam ined the titles to the foregoing lodes or ledges, and am salisffed that they are perfect. THOM AJ4 MASON, Professor Edward N. Kent, of the Now York Assay Office, says : “ As to tho extont of the gold mines of Colo rado, I am not prepared to give an esti mate, as I louud enough to fully employ my time within' a radius of five miles of Cen tral City, (tho location of the abovo Ledges, l but as to the richness of them, I hftvo no hesitation In saying, that I believe them to be the richest ever discovered. With science, capital and the Pacific Railroad, Colorado is destined in my oplulou, to rival or supersede California and Australia, and become tho El Dorado of the World.” As tho purchaso of either of the above lodes would require more money than tho majority of persons have at command, It lias been deter mined to consolidate them, ami to divide them Into Twelve Hundred aud Fifty ORIGINAL SHARKS which will cost the subscribers hereto .$l5O 00 . 30 00 . 20 00 . “f> 00 . 10 00 ONE HUNDRED DOI.LAKS EACH, thus affording tho man of limited menus, as well as the capitalist, an opportunity to secure an Interest In this region of “ practically Inex haustible ” wealtn. As all are aware, the usual plan adopted for the development of such a property Is to form a company and Issue certlllcates of stock. Tho plan here proposed may be considered prelimi nary to Iho formation of two or more Companies on these properties,* which aro subject to no royalty, leases or mortgages. The Subscribers cau then upon tills solid and substantial basis, elect officers from among themselves, each subscriber being eligible to tho position of an officer of tho Company. In order that haudsonio returns may be speedily realized, theso Subscriptions are based upon tho proposition that the subscribers immediately ou receipt of tho Deeds (now ready for delivery, and which may bo examined at the office of the un lerslgned before subscrib ing,) may leaso their lands ou heavy royalties, or at once organize Companies In the usual way for which there is an araplo basis. To accommodate those of moderate means, these “interests” are put at SUX> each, in ouler to get the list filled at <mce, and to prevent any delay In the organization of the Coinpauy. Considering tne numerous vuluablo ”Lodges" which constitute the bturin of this enterprise— the fair and equitable features—the low prices at which “ interests ’’ In It are offered, and that each Interest entitles the holder to his pro rata share of stock In all the Companies that may be organized upon them—also recollecting that In all, there are only 1,000 Intere-ds to be sold, and It would only require ono hundred gentle men each to lake ten ii,OOU) io absorb the whole, it is presumed that It Is hardly necessary to suggest to those desiring to secure one or more of these original Interests, to at once send la their subscriptions. Checks or Drafts should be drawn to tho order of the undersigned, whoso eudor lenient will be a receipt, In addition to the ono that will bo promptly sentou receiving them. United States 5-20’a—10-40's—7-30’s and other Government Bonds taken at par, and any pre mium or accrued Interest thereon a lowed.— Bonds may be sent by registered mall or by express.
