3=EMS[ CONGRESS--FIBSIT SEPISiON7 IMMO OP TH:STORDAY'S PSOMOODLNCIS `SENATE.—Theloill -to enlarge the e .ppbwers -of the Freedmen's Bureanwas called up.: Mr. Saulsbury said: The bill under con sideration proposes to enlarge the powers of the Freedmen's Bureau. It does enlarge them wonderfully. I think I can demon •strate mathematically that this bill gives to the President of the 'United States, and to those entrusted with the discharge of these duties, the power of spending at least two hundred and fifty millions of dollars. It cannot be the intention of the friends of the bill that such enormous expenditure shall be incurred; but we are to look at what may be the result of this Bureau going into opera tion to ascertain what the expense may be niad-we are'not to consider that those en trusted with the -discharge of those duties will not incur this expense. Mr. Saulsbury then reviewed the different sections of the bill, alleging that it gave patronage to a dangerous -extent to the President, as well as incurred immense ex pense upon the country. It provided for an _agent of the Bureau in every county. There were sixteen hundred and seventy-eight counties in the United States. In every one of these an agent at fifteen hundred dollars -a year would come to two millions five hun dred and fourteen thousand dollars. Seventy-twe clerks of Assistant Commis sioners at twelve hundred dollars a year, would cost eighty-six thousand four hundred dollars, and ' three thousand -two hundred and forty-two clerks for agents, in addition b all this, making a total for officers alone if seven million three hundred and fourteen . - Llousand two hundred dollars. 'ae reviewed the course of the Republican pally' since it came into. power, contrasting thenresent condition of the country with its condition before the election of Mr. Lin --Coln. He believed legislation of the char acter now under consideration would result in the election of the Democratic party and Democratic majorities in both Houses of Congress. All he would say to the Demo •cratic party was for it to stand firmly by its principles. . Mr. Fessenden `(Me.) said the Senator from Delaware had said that a continuance in the kind If measures now under consid -eratidn would very soon put the Democratic party in posssion of both Halls of Con ,sress. He dii not know that he should hesi tate to do whit he believed to be right and :proper, even in view of such a calamity as the accession of the Democratic party. If he really believed that such a consum mation was restly to come about, he did not know but he night hesitate a little, dread ing the evil so nsich, but he did not appre bend any such result was so near at hand as that it ought to induence his action in mea sures that he thought properfind and just. Let us look at the contrition in which we ourselves at the dose of a great war, brought upon us by the Democratic party. "The great mass of the Democratic party, the leading portion of it, was the. Southern por tion. Ido not say tint all the Democrats were in favor of bringing on the war. I acknowledge that a very great portion of them have proved themselves to he good and true patriots—as good and true friends of the country as any set of men—but I do say that the support which the Democratic party gave to the South it all its measures -of aggression was a degree of encourage ment without which I do not believe the war would have occurred. That has been my opinion always, and I have no hesitation in expressing it now. If the war was brought upon us by the South itself, and a result has followed which may be grievous to them for a series of years, it /is not for them to complain. They invited -the war, and'drove us into the necessity of prosecuting it, and if the result is disas trous, and continues to be oppressive, so far as the necessary measures are concerned, they have themselves to thank for it, and cannot complain of the Congress of the United States. If the Democratic party, as a party, in its previous course is responsi ble in any degree for the condition of things - that exist, it is not for that party, as a party, to complain lof the measures which may be found necessary at present. They alsoliaVe taken the consequences of their action to a certain extent, and I think they ought to be silent upon everything "which is a natural and inevitable result of the consequence for which they are both responsible. Mr. McDougall (Cal.) objected to the ar raignment of the Democratic party. The Democrats, he said, have been 'maintainers -of the Union from the ,commencement of the troubles to the last:,They had main tained the Union with thir blood and trea sure. Fessenden said be made a distinction between the rank and file of the Democratic party and the leaders who acted in advance of the party. Many Democrats had shown themselves lovers of the country. The great mass of the Democratic party fought bravely to support the Government throughout in a manly and patriotic way. - We hear a great many threats of disruption of the Union party, of the overthrow we are about to experience,of the '' o•oodtime coming for those who are not now having the most :agreeable time in the world. Perhaps it may come, it;ls not for me to say that it will not; perhaps the great party which has control of the country at the present time will com mit such errors that the people will get tired -of it and wish for a change. Nothing is more natural. Possession of power for a long time is apt to make men careless if not corrupt, and it is a good thing in a re public that the people can change and do •change their rulers, but let me say that I hope the party in power will continue there long enough to set things right, so that - when there is a change there will not be so great a capacity for evil as there would have been if we had not got into power. We will endeavor to strengthen the country - if we cannot strengthen ourselves. As good patriots we will do whatever we can for the public good while we remain in power, and - will not be frightened by the threats that we hear made. Mr.Fessenden then spoke of the bill under -consideration, and in conclusion referred to the subject of reconstruction. He had no ticed that some gentlemen were a little anxious to discuss this matter before they had the benefit of the facts that the Special Committee might be able to state, and the ' , conclusions to which they might finally -come. That-wa& a matter for every gentle man to judge by himself, and for himself, but there was one thing upon which he - wished to say a word. Senators have, in the course of debate, chosen to talk a great deal about the policy of the. President and - the policy of Congress. I cannot understand why gentlemen of the -other side of the House and gentlemen of the same way of thinking on, this side of the _Mouse should be so very anxious to, get up the idea that there is a collision of opinions `between the President and Congress. We have all sorts of rumors, in which the wish is father to, the thought. One day we hear that such a Cabinet Minister is to be turned out or to resign, and this day something else is being done; that the President had said - this or that; that he means to ostracise people who will not support his policy, etc. All such rumors are without the slightest foun dation, except the wish of those who invent them. Mr. Fessenden said he would say to all who wished such a state of affairs to, come about, not to flatter themselves with any .such idea. He had not ;as yet seen the slightest indication; and he did not expect to sec, any. Even supposing there was a difference of opinion, to ascertain extent, as to, -the time and manner of accomplijih ing a great work, which all desire to see accomplished at. the , earliest possible, day,' did it follow, because of this difference of opinion, that there was to be the collision that was talked about? He knew very well that men hung -around the White HOMO, and. endeavored to. persuade the President thatthose who ought to be his i best friends: are not doing their best to sustain him; bat they paid the Pregident a poor compliment when , theyintitnated that he was not -keep ing watch on these matters himself. There is hozeolliiiion; said Mr. Fesseriden. I say it for ifitteh Or little for the benefit of the country. The 'President has done no thing that his friends complain of, and his friends have done nothing that he can com plain of. As commander-in-chief of, the army he had appointed Provisional Go vernors in the South, but he had • not at tempted to do anything, which, under the Constitution, belonged to Congress 'to do. In conclusion,Mr.Fessenden said he,desired a full restoration of the Union as speedily as possible. He was opposed to the impo sition upon • any, people designed to form part of the government, of degrading condi tions of any kind. He would not degrade the South in any way. After a few remarks by Senators Hen dricks and Davis, in defence of the iDemo cratic party, the Senate adjourned. HOUSE.—The House proceeded to the consideration of the proposed atnendment of the Constitution of the United States in relation to the apportionment of represen tatives and direct taxes. Mr. Jenckes (R. I.), suggested that' the amendment said nothing about a property qualification. South Carolina, for instance, might require a qualification of fifty acres of land, or the payment of a tax. There would be no ,discrimination on account of color in that State, yet the basis or repre sentation would be the same. Mr. Stevens (Pa.) replied that no matter whether the State cut out white or black the representation would be diminished to that extent.• Mr. Farnsworth (Ill.)—But suppose the black man does not own real estate? Mr. Stevens—Then the amendment opez rates. Mr. Brooks wishes to know where the one hundred thousand Asiatics or coolies in California . , and Oregon, and those who are',going into Nevada and the teriitories to make railroads, are excluded. • t blllr. Asiatics Stevens are' r e p e li x e c t that ed b h y e t u b n e d l e a r s w t s o D o i Ca ifornia on account of race from the el ctive franchise; therefore that State, to this eqtent, would be curtailed of repre sentatioh. Mr. Brooks asked why exclude the In dil n? Is he not a man of color? Ir. Stevens replied—lndians not taxed ar excluded by the Constitution. r. Brooks—But why not include them? Mr. Stevens—They are tribal, and have their own:separate governments. Mr. Brooks—Why not embrace them all, while you are making a liberal constitu tion? - Mr. Stevens—We have not done so because the gentleman and his friends would make objection. Mr. Sloan (Wis.) asked Mr. Stevens to withdraw his demand for the previouaques ton, as he desired to offer an amendment, Mr. Stevens—l cannot do it, and insist on the previous question. Mr. Baker k Ill.), in a persuasive tone—l appeal, earnestly and kindly, to the gen tleman from Pennsylvania to yield the floor for a very few minutes. [Applause.] Mr. Stevens—The gentleman is too polite. I cannot do it. [Laughter.] Mr. Baker—l submit whether it is entirely proper to put through an amendment to the Constitution and refuse one word of de bate or one moment to raise an objection to it? As for myself, I protest against this course. Mr. Stevens—l have only suggested what I have thought it is our duty to do if the amendment is to• pass the House. I have only submitted the question to the House. If the House desires to delay, they can do so by refusing to sustain the demand for the previous question. Mr. Baker—Why not allow five or ten minutes' debate? Mr. Stevens—lt is not for me to say. I submit the question to the House. I think we ought to pass this joint resolution to daMy. r. Farnsworth—l submit that we have the five minutes' debate. [Voices, "Say tea."] If that is not allowed, then r hope the House will vote down the previous question. Mr. Bromwell (lll.)—Gentlemen are not satisfied. There is a disagreement about the interpretation of the resolution. Mr, Stevens—l will give the gentleman (Mr. Farnsworth) an opportunity to move a ten minutes' debate. Mr. Voorhees (Ind.)—That is too much time. I suggest two minutes. [Laughter.] Mr. Chanler(N. Y.)—l propose an amend ment of two minutes. [C•tlls to order from the Republican side.] Mr. Stevens—l am so much astonished at the exhibition on this side of the House that I withdraw the demand, and leave the ques tion to the House. Mr. Blaine (Me.) said that having origi nally proposed the constitutional amend ment of which the pending proposition was the redraft and substance, he desired to say a word on the matter before the vote w‘s taken: He desired to reaffirm his assertio: in regard to the effect of the suffrage basis as between the States of New York and Pennsylvania, attempted to becontroverted yesterday by the gentleman from New York (Mr. Conkling.) He stated on the authority of the eminent Chairman of the Committee of Ways end Means (Mr. Mor nil) that it would give a net gain of five members to New York. and the table sub mitted by the gentleman from New York itself admitted a net gain of four. That was enough to . "Not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church door," but enough certainly for Pennsylvania. But while the gentleman from New York ad limed facts apparently in support of the suffrage basis, he was cordially in fa'or of the pending measure, _resembling in, this respect the waterman in "Pilgrim's Pro gross," who got his living by rowing ear nestly one way while steadily looking the ,)ther. Mr. Blaine stated that another objection to the suffrage basis would be found in the fact that the moment representatives are appointed among the States in that way, they will necessarily be distributed within the States on some basis, and a strife of lo- Pality is at once started in all States where the male population of one section might tie greater or less than that of another. 'Such trifes would be most mischievous in their effects and tendencies. He spoke further in support of the amendment, and against the basis of suffrage. The loyal States should not quarrel among themselves, nor should one seek to gain an,unfair advantage of the other. Mr. Kelley (Pa.) of Pennsylvania, offered an amendment to the pending , resolution: Provided further, That this article shall not be construed to affect the power of Congress to regulate the qualifications for electors of the most numerous branch of the Legisla tures of the several States. - Mr. Donnelly(Minn.) spoke in faVor of the resolution. It would do away with the rotten borough system of the country. ,It would reduce the representation in Congress to a basis of perfect equality. If men have no voice in the government, other men should not sit in Congress pretending to re present them. An oppressed race should not be represented by their oppressors, and it was mockery to say that a man's enemy should be his agent, and selected by his enemies, as would be the case if white men of the South represented black men in Con gress without the blacks being allowed to He could not see how a Northern man could reluse to vote for this bill, as it teas a measure ofjustice for, the North, and would increase its power without 'doing injiiatic:e to'any one. It'was claimed that this mea sure would induce the South to let the negroes vote. He did not believe this. The THE. DAi Y EVEN hope offuturo, Po tieal power was a remote and vague feeli .g. The ahtipathY 'to the negro was direct . d pressing. Politicians,, eager for office an,. power, might be Willin„c , to do this, but the great mass of the people are not office-hol ers, -and follow their pas sions and prejudi es; moreover, to give the negro suffrage, in tie;hope of power, ;would 'defeat itself. Th negroes would sympa thize with the North. The planters have no power to employ. Northern men to induce the negroes to work, and the negroes will make no contract unless a Northern man has examined it. ' They would strengthen the North and di vide the South by giving suffrage to the negroes, and they know it. In some States they would have to abdicate power. In South Carolina the negroes are nue-third more than the whites; in Mississippi they ate largely in the-% majority. He hoped no gentleman would vote for the measure as an excuse to avoid further action. We must take direct, not sidelong measures; we roust make Is ws,not arguments; we must enforce, not induce. He would insist that every security be given for the perpetuity and development of all the people of the South; as in that only could the peace and safety of the nation be found. Mr. Sloan (Wis.) made a , few remarks to show . that representation in the House should be based only on the right of suf frage. The resolution before them, he be• lieved, was reported to secure the adoption of this principle, - but not directly. It was subject to evasion or abuse, or it was im possible so to- guard as to secure it from such a devise. He wanted to have the two subjects of taxes and representation discon nected. ,Direct taxes should be according to the assessable property, apart from re presentation. : , Mr. Brooks (N. Y.) said that this discus-, sion was only for agitation, for no gentle man could believe than an amendment of this character could become the funda mental law of the land. The opinion of the gentleman from Pennsylvania ( Mr. Stevens) was, that there are no States in the Union excepting those represented on this floor, and the gentleman knew the President re cognized thirty-six States, and that it was necessary to obtain the ratification of three fourths of them t make valid an amend mend ment to th Constitution, which the gentleman knew t was impossible to obtain for the amendment now under considera tion for it would require the assent of the Legislatures of twenty-seven States. He repeated the obje ~ t of this proposition was agitation; it was , n appeal from this House to what was fanilliarly known as "Bono combe." He had asked the gentleman this morning to be consistent, and to include the Asiatic immigration which, by means of connection with our steamers, is about to pour forth in mighty masses on the Pacific coast, to labor and to cultivate the soil. Mr. Stevens remarked that he had al ready said the State of California excluded them, and therefore they would not be c muted on the basis of representation. Mr. Brooks observed that Oregon, Cali fornia and Nevada were to be deprived of representation, and was not the Indian as well as the negro "a man and a brother?" To this he received no answer. He raised his voice in behalf of tlifteen million of his countrywomen, the rarest and brightest port on of our creation, and asked why they are to be deprived of representation? They are excluded from all voting. Why not re cognize them as entitled to representation? Mr. Stevens replied that the amendment did not say they shall not vote. Mr. Brooks resumed—The ground on which it was presented was, that there is a new era of progress, but not the Indian but the negro is to be treated as "a man and a brother." But why not give the fair sex the right of representation? Many members here hold in their possession a petition from ladies asking equal rights with negroes. He then caused to be read a petition signed by Susan R. Anthony, and addressed to him, saying that a copy was sent to Hon. Thaddeus Stevens, last week, with a request that, if the Committee on Reconstruction should not report favorably, they would at least not interpose any barrier to women en joying the right to the ballot. Mr. Stevens asked the gentleman whether he was in favor of granting the right of, suffrage to women. Mr. Brooks replied that he preferred his':. own color, and white women above the negroes. [Applause.] Mr. Stevens—Are you in favor of sue!' an amendment? Mr. Brooks—Such an amendment ought to come from the other side. The Speaker said he saw a number of persons clapping in the galleries. He would endeavor, to the frill extent of his ability, whether supported by the House or not, to preserve order. Applause was as much out of order as manifestations of disap proval, and hisses not more than clappin4 of hands. Instead of general applause on the floor, gentlemen an the floor should set the galleries a good example. Mr. Orth Ind.) said that in the constitn tioral amendment he heretofore offered he iroposeff to base representation ou suffrage lone. The amendment now under con sideration did embrace that principle, lrit was, in his opinion, most mischievous. His object was that each vote should count cqually,andi:that in MassachuSetts it should nu be greater than in Indiana or in South Carolina. The difference between Massa chusetts and Indiana arose from the fact that in Indiana the colored race was ex cluded from suffrage, while in Massachu setts the colored race voted, with the excep tion of those who could not read. While Indiana had a prejudice against color, Massachusetts had a prejudice against ignorance. While Indiana excludes the black man from voting, she does not ask that he shall be represented; but Massa ohusetts did ask that he shall be rept* rented. The amendment which he pro posed was that representation shall be ap portioned among the several States with regard to the number of male citizens of twenty-one years of age having the qualifi cations to vote for - the most numerous branch of the Legislature. Mr. Chanler (N. Y.) said the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Stevens) yesterday declared his purpose to pass this resolution before the• sun went down; to force this House to adopt a measure the tendency of which was to carry with it the sun which shines on our liberty, to destroy the balance of States, and the harn4ony among them all., He then proceeded to argue that such hasty legislation was extremely unjust to the States not represented, and unworthy of the character and history of the American Con ess. The resolution is too narrow to be of use, and teo weak to last. It is fanatical in its origin and blind in its partisan madness and sought to disturb the balance of power, It excludes immigration by a surrender in spirit, if not in letter, of the control of the South to the black race. It creates a new constituency. It is fatal to our financial system and to our labor system. Besides, the temper of the country is not ready fore so novel and revolutionary a measure. It is unjust to. the laboring classes of the North, East and West, and to white labor every , where. It was unjust to the white soldier in the army and navy. It is imperial and centralizing 'in its plmotical working. It comes from the exclusive Committee on Re construction and holds the Southern States in duress for political and partisan purposes, and it , is not offered in good faith, but to head off the President in _ his policy of re- construction. Mr. Farnsworth (MO said that in what ever law they might pass• it must be so hedged about with guards and protection, and be so plain and clear that: a wayfaring man, though a fool, need not err therein. They had adopted a constitutional amend ment that slavery should not exist,but they found that in the South those made free aro being reduced to slavery again for every BULLETIN; P ILADELPHIA , WEIiNiSDAY; - , petty offence., The gunning ,rebels4tsd evaded the laW by which the shaCkles of every maff 'Were 'removed. - It stietried' to him the - pending, proposition was not so clear as it, ought to:be. , .TIM Southern States might deprive the negroes from the right o suffrage by requiring a nronerty qualifica tion; tor,if education were required, , by ex-1 eluding,them from, the schools, thus pre venting the negroes from possessing the re qpired qualification. By no act of his,even by implicittion, would he say a State' has it right to disfranchise the negro. It was un just, and the principle of republican govern ment prevented it. The .people who sent them to this House were more radical than they were themselves. In reply to a ques tion asked by Mr. Smith (Ky.),he said that, in his opinion, the States which have been in rebellion areilot necessary to ratify an amendment to the Constitution. Mr. Smith controverted this view, hold ing that all the States heing in the Union, it required three-fourths of them to ratify a constitutional amendment. Mr.•Tarneworth asked if the Southern States were in rebellion ten years, how could their votes be counted? If these States were still in the Union, why did not their Senators take their seats? Mr. Smith—Beca use you will not let them. Mr. Farnsworth concluded by s.tyiug they took np their hats and walked off, and might, if they were here, do the same to day. Slr. Baker (Ill.) mentioned his objections to the resolution. Iv failed to , provide and by apt words to secure a representation in this government ptoperly corresponding with the measure of suffrage on which it - Tested. Under its operation three contin gencies arise: First. A given State may enact universal suffrage; in that case the proposed amend ment to the Constitution was all right. Second. That such a State might deny or abridge the elective franchise on account of race or color, and in 'that case the amend ment would operate to exclude from the basis of reoresentation all persons, of all races and colors, and thus effect the end proposed by the committee. Thi4 - d. Such State may deny or abridge the electivefranchise on some other account, as, for instance, property or intelligence, and in this case a very large number of people vrere disfranchised, vet, under the operation of the amendment, they would all be counted in the basis of representation, which would be unjust, in its leaving ob noxious things standing in the way of our system, and which it was the object of the amendment to extirpate. The House should prevent a State from depriving citizens of suffrage, and at the same time give her the basis of representation. Mr. Jenckes • H, I.) said that as the pend ing proposition came from a select commit tee of fifteen, it was to be received with greater solemnity than any other. They asked immediate action. The House had the right to suppose that it was a portion of the plan of reconstruction for the action of this Congress, and that the committee thought that the best thing to be done was to act upon the plan in detail. This opposi tion to the amendment was based on several grounds. It was to be supposed that while it was proposed to heal a wound, they would have presented a measure not only avoid ing eritieisni, but at least based on the prin ciple of justice. The amendment did not contain the prin ciple of justice which requires that the quali hcation of electors of this House and for the President—in other words, the two popular branches—should be denied in the funda mental law. If the amendment should go into effect four millions of freemen, three fifths of whom only have been counted heretofore, would not only be excluded from the basis of representation, but ex cluded forever in the election of representa tives. He would exclude an entire race among us. If we can exclude them we can exclude immigrants. South Carolina might exclude Union men if the loyal States can exclude those who took part in the rebellion. Mr. Trimble t Ky.) said he preferred the Constitution made in the day and hour that tried men's souls. He asked his friends on the other side, before they took this step of pasting upon the amendment, to pause and reflect upon the consequences it would have on the people in every section of the country. Why should they hurry through the measure with suck precipitation, without adequate discussion? This amendment was TO operate for weal or woe upon a people lately in rebellion, who have no voice to plead for them, and whose representatives are not admitted to the rights and privileges of this floor. Would it not be well and in the spirit of harmony and concession to wait until they can again be here? Mr. Lynch (Me.) asked why those men were not here? Mr. Trimble replied these States have a right under the Coustitution to represen tation. Their members are here with the bread seal of their States but they are kept out. Mr. Lynch—Whose fault is it? . - - Trintble—You have closed these doors against them. Why are Maynard, Sibkes, Cooper, Hawkins, and others, who fought the batties of their country, kept t , ut. Mr. Lynch—Does the gentleman know why poor Tray §utiered? Mr. Trimble—Yes. But I trust the gen tieman does not mean to attikch a stigma to those gentlemen by saying they were in bad company. They fought tier the Union. They were in company with the President of the United States. Col. Hawkins was under fire sixty long days at. Charleston, and I admit he was there in bad company. Mr. Trimble concluded by adverting to the principles heretofore declared as the object of the war, and argued that there was no power under the Constitution to destroy the institution of slavery, much less to en franchise the property of which the Southern States had been deprived. The pending proposition was an attack upon the Presi dent and the principles taught by that dis tinguished man. Mr. Le Blond (Ohio) moved that the reso 'ution and ament meats be referred to the Oornmittee of the Whole on the State of the Union, and at the debate thereon each speaker be restricted to twenty minutes. Mr. Stevens objected. Mr. Lawrence (Ohio) moved that the reso lution be recommitted with instructions to ! , mend; first, to apportion direct taxation Among the States according to the property in each, and second, to apportion represen tation among the States on the basis of adult male voters, who may be citizens of the United States. r. Washburne (Ill.) objected, and the House then adjourned. WANTS. Uliti AN Iea—SITUATION WANTED BY .A.S.N es perienced organist and choir director. A - dress or inquire at.

CARSON GOLD MINING' COMPOY, , OF NORTH CAROLINA. The Land of this Company cm:wilts of 120 ACRES in Atecklenberg county, North Carolina, 334m11es from the town of Charlotte, ona branch of. Sugar Creek, which stream furnishes gook water power for grinding the ores. This Mine was first opened in 1838 by amen named Carson. who worked it successfully for a num ber of Years. He died In the town of Charlotte, in 1848, worth over half a million dollars. Two shafts have been sunk on :his property, one o' them SO feet, the other. 60 feet, on different veins averaging from two to three feet In thickness. which veins still continue on down increasing in width and richness. These shafts are in good order, and7t e can be readilYtaken out at any time. Other veins bavebeen discovered on this property, and tested and proved to betery.ric.b in gold. The ores of this mine are known as the brown ore, and very rich, yielding readily $lO per bushel. This is believed to be one of the best and most certain mines in the State, on: account of the abundance and quality of the ore, and ease in which it is obtained ano reduced. This property has been worked by Major Z. A. Grier from late to the breaking out of the war. This Company have purchased this property, and intend to erect machinery • and put the mines in idarnediate operation. The many advantages of this adneover the mines of Colorado and. Nevada can hardly be estimated. It is more re.Aily reached, and has abundance of feel, with cheap labor. It can be worked all the year, and not. as in the case of Colo rado and Nevada, he compelled to Ile idle for three or four months in consequence of the severity of the . winter. Tints mine having been worked lox a long time proved to be a rich paying one. We do not, therefore i have to incur the risk there Is in an undeveloped pro yerty, but can count on large and immediate returns on the investments. Having snore that readily yields I Igle per bushel,' some . estimate cart be made of the value of this property.,With the present imperfect system of mining in this locality, and absence of pro. per machinery, ten tons of this ore can be taken out daily from every abaft opened.: Estimating, say 15 bushels to the ton, the daily yield will be $1,500 from , one shaft, aalowing $lOO per day for expenses. The net 'product will be sl,:eo per dayf counting 300 working days' to the year, the yearly proceeds will be 6.5.,005. which yield can be largely increased by extending the works. This is considered a very low estimates of the capacity of this mine by experienced miners of that locality. The Assayer of the United States Mint at Charlotte, in speaking of this property, says It has few equals In productiveness in that country, and with proper management and machinery the above pro duct can be doubled.
