TIIK AMOUNT OF dOLti AN I, SILVER MIS Kit
IN THIS OOt'NTRY—TIIE OUTLOOK.
In tho opinion of some experts the
rroductinn of precious metals in tiio
'nited States is Imt just beginning, in
the lust ten years tve have ativsnceti
from #17.320,000 in silver, and #;-i3,7.'i0,-
000 in gold t<i #45,840,100 in silver an<i
♦44,880,223 in gold, hut it is said that
the next census (ten years) will more
than quadruple this production. Dur
ing the tirsi seven years from 1870 to
1877 the production of gold exceeded
that of silver in our country, but since
then the production of silver has ex
ceeded that of gold #5.562,595. This
was canned in patt by the discovery of
tho great silver mines at Leadville,
Clolorudo, and in part by the decrease
of the gold production of tho Coinstock
lode in Nevada. It is a fact not gener
ally known that in tho production of
the Comstoek lode 41 2D-100 is gold.
The decrease of yield in Comstoek was
#12.464.481 in silver and gold during
IB7H-1870, while the increase of silver
production in Colorada was #8,000.000.
The exact production of gold and silver
during the last census, as near as it esn
be ascertained, was as follows:

Noah's Tomb.
A road practicable for wheeled vehi

along ihe plain to Baalbec, distant about
lorty miles—a pleasant road, for the
first hour skirting the lower Lebanon
-purs, and winding between hedges of
roses in through a richly
cultivated country. I turned off from
it liefore it became hot and dull, at the i
village of Mualnks, celebrated as con
taining the mortal remains of Noah, •
whose tomb is shown to the credulous
stranger. Its dimensions are 104 feet
long by ten broad, and it conveys some
idea of the sue of the human race
before they evolved backward, as it
were, to their present dimensions. As
Noah lived to the age of 9">o years, and j
built an ark large enough to contain
sjiecimens of every diving thing on the 1
face of the globe, there seems to he no
reason why he should not him*e!f have
been over 100 feet high.

chapters of Madame de Kemusat on i
the emotions of Bonaparte, on his ner- (

you." The terrible man, wh<\ felt tin-•

played with the livea of men as a child <
plays with sand, cried easily; he loved 1
nd tormented his "little Creole ;" he 1
wished to see her covered with dia
monds and to tear all her ornaments
from her. He did leave her after all,
and the "Memoirs" of Metternich show
that he regretted deeply tbe "felly"
which he committed when ha abandon
ed his first wife. The Archduchess
Maria Louise was, in his thought, a lie
between his dynasty and the old dynas

Closing Days of the Widow of Hon.
U. N. IMikliiHon.
from lh Nr Vork •
Mrs. Lvdia Dickinson, wife of the
late Daniel K. Dickinson, lihm for
weeks jmnt been lying dangerously ill
at the residence of her daughter, Mr*,
Samuel S, Courtney, at High Bridge.
For week* pant the life of the vener
able lady has been despaired of, and
yesterduy her physician, Dr. Ilciiry
I'aine, said that she would hardly live
the week out, and, in fact, was liable
to drop oil' any moment. The dis
ease from whieh she suffers is dropsy,
aggravated by other oomplications in
cident of old age. In early life Mrs.
Dickinson's social and personal ac
complishments, added to the high po
litical position and deserved lame of
her husband, made her a noble figure
in the society of New Vork and the
National Capital. .She was Ixirn in
June, JBO.I, in the township of Una
diila. Her father, Dr. Kolby Knapp,
was a leading citizen cd' Southern
New Vork, the founder of the village
of knappsburg, Chenango county,
twelve miles from I nadilln. Her ma
ternal grandfather, Colonel Elihu
Murray, wu an officer of distinction
during the Revolutionary war and
was attached to Washington's start'.
His daughter, Rticind, (afterward Mrs.
Dickinson's mother*, was a noted
beauty. In her girlhood, Mrs. Dick
insoii attended the well known Oxford
Academy, at Oxford, X. V., where,
among her fellow pupils, were Horatio
Seymour ami Ward Hunt, afterward
Judge of the Court of Appeals.
Daniel S. Dickinson, then unknown
to fame, was a rising young wool
dresser, who, though lie ha*! never
gone to school more than two weeks
in his life, was ambitious of doing
something better. He fell in love
with Lydia and married her, she being
ninete-n and he twenty-two. Woman
like, she was quick to discover her
husband's talents, and urged hirn by
every means in her jsiwer to persevere
in Ids law studies, and fit himself for
a high position in life. The Rev.
Mr. Garvin, of Guilford, was Dickin
son's tutor. and taught hiin lattin and
surveying, and other branches, in the
evening. Dick in v>n worked patiently
at his law-books in the day-time. In
winter, he taught school to pay the
expenses of his education. For seven
long year* he lal>orrd, cheered and en
couraged by the smiles of his voting
wife until, at lat, in IH2P. he was
admitted to the bar of Chenango
county. Three years later be removed
to Riiighamton, where he speedily out
distanced other competitors, and be
came the aknowledgcd leader of the
har in the southern counties. Hi* fame
quickly spread to New York nnd
Albany, and in half n dozen years he
served successfully as State Senator,
Judge of the Court of Errors, Presi
dential elector, nnd I.ieutennnt Gov
ernor of the Slate. In 1*44 Governor
Buck appointed him to fill an unex
pired term in the I'nited States Sen
ate, arid the year following he was
elected to the Legislature for the full
term. Mrs. Dickinson entered hearti
ly into all her husband's projects, and
rejoiced as became a devoted wife at
his unexampled advancement. She
accompanied him to Washington, nnd
took n promint part in the social life of
the Capital. Their summers were
passer! at the Senator's beautiful homo,
on the outskirts of Binghamton. Mrs.
Dickinson's fame a* a hostess was
wide spread, and the mansion and
grounds on the bank* of the Chenango
were the constant resort of distinguish
ed guests from all parts of the country
and Europe. Dinner*, entertainments
and other social festivities followed,
in rapid succession, and few persons of
note visited Binghamton without par
taking of the Senator's hospitality.
James M. Mason,of Virginia ; George
Pea body, the I/mdon hanker; Charles
O'Connor, J<**e D. Bright, of Indiana,
and several of the foreign Embassa
dors were frequently guests. In IH.V2
Mr. Dickinson was n deb-gate to the
I>emoeralic National Convention at
Baltimore, ami ph-dged to the nomina
tion of Cass. After fruitless ballot
ings Virginia led off with a solid vole
for Dickinson, and would have lieeu
followed by other States but for the
splendid fidelity of the New York
Senator, who, with a coveted prize in
his grasp, was too loyal to his pledges
to accept it at the expense of Cass.
After a short pause he rose and with
drew his name iu a abort speech of
grace and eloquence, which aroused
i the enthuiasm of the audience to the
highest pilch Hnd caused him to be
fairly pelted with boqucts by the
ladies iu the gallery. His devoted
wife, who but for this incident might
have been mistress of the White
House, sympathized with him through
out this trying ordeal. At the close
of his Senatorship she retired with him
to their home on the Chenango, where
their declining yeara were spent amid
troops of friends. They had four
children, two of whom died and were
hurird on the banks of the river. The
two daughters, Marv and Lydia, be
came resnectively Mrs. John T. My
gatt and Mrs. Courtney, The former,
who reaides at Fort Washington, i*
known among her friend* a* an au
thoress of acknowledged repute. After
her husband's death, iu 1806, Mrs.
Dickinson removed to New York,
where she has siuce resided. She was
a life-long member of the Episcopal
church, and is remembered as one of
the Ave original communicants of
Christ's church, Binghamton.
In person Mrs. Dickinson was tall
pnd slender, with dark blue eyes, dark
' brown hair and gentle manner-?.
Though naturally of a modest and re
tiring disposition, she possessed great
. spirit ami determination, and which
shown forth in times of trial or enter-
I genoy. \ ears after Mr. Dickinson
had attained his fame he visited the
' little academy at Oxford where his
! wife hail Ixvn educated. To the as
sembled magnates of the village who
, eatne to greet him ho said "that though
, he had never studied at their institu
, tion, he had carried off its greatest
prize."

barn a rmh hut perfi-elly-working
machine of death, on the style of the
1 rench guillotine. Two uprights of
joists twelve feet ip length he had set
from the floor to the ceiling. The
upper ends were spiked to the ceiling ;
the lower mortised in solid blocks of
wood alkout four feet long, and in the
center of which he had scoojied out a
j neck rest. Fitting between the up

a carpenter's broad axe sharpened to
a razor-like con<lition. This slider
rested on a lever, which worked upon

1 some three feet in length, was a water

; hut, to make things dead sure, Fills
bury had placed on top of the slider a
box of stones alnmt fifty jKiunds in

To prevent any charge of suicidal
j intent, he had at the liasc of the up
rights inserted a piece of broom-handle,
running through both joists and com
pletely imprisoning his nook. By his
j side, on the block, he had dug out a

i to Marshficld, Ma., farmer Columbus
.Inquith. living on the Manchester pike,
a few miles from I.awrvnceburg, Ind.,

jective roof, which came near crushing
his house, and for which he has as yet
foiled to find an owner. His bouse is
surrounded by a lot of cedar trees, two
of which stand about twenty feet from
his door. In the midst of the most
violent gale of the storm, his whole
i family was roused by an awful crash,
which ap|>eared to be on their very
i thresh hold. On going to the outside
door, to their dismay they found a
roof fourteeu by twelve, to which was
attached a heavy beam and a long
rope, had fallen upon the cedar Irm
nearest the house, stripping off the
limbs and totally crushing the trunks.
A variance of tweuty feet and the
flying missile would have struck Mr.
Jaquith's house and no doubt left it in
