    OTIFT OF SERVICE.
"If as n flower (loth aproad and '
Thou wouldat extend nu; to somo gdoad —
Before I were, by frost'o extremity,
Isapt in the bud!" ~ llnunnitt.
A Creature out of work in beggary
' To Thee I come,
O King or Kings, find room and use for me
In thy great home!
Scarce eltllkd to serve and please my fellow-men,
On Thee to watt
I offer me. In mercy let me in,
Ere 'Us too late.
Though somewhat I be rusty, dull and frail,
Do not refuse me;
No weapon in Almighty hands can fail;
0 .llaker, use me.
Draw out the music from my heart -strings mute,
Notes high and glad
of thanks and praise; or,if it better suit,
Low, sweet and sad.
My jangled chords'a tuner's care and pain
Too much require;
But, good or bad, the player makes the strain
More than the lyre. •..
Speak unto me. The ballest rocks full oft
The best resound;
Thy voice may to some answering heart more
soft
From mine rebound:
Or break me with thine : awful rod apart,
If only so
Thy living waters through my stony heart
May weeping tow.
And forth anon , the world's dry places through,
lJ
• ntainted leap,
And give betimes to drink and live anew
Cluiet's fainting sheep.
I shiver through my show of leaves whene'er
The year comes round;
"Why cumbereth It"—I ever fear to hear—
The" groaning ground!"
•
,The hungering husbandman too oft hath passed;
He seeks my fruit
And tills my clod in vain. The axe at last
Lies at my root.
THE MAGAZINES FOR JUNE.
Lippincott's, for Juno, is ballasted with a seri
ens and well considere'd article by Hon. Amass
Walker, entitled "Conversion of the National
Debt." We can in no other way draw attention
so well to this project of gradual conversion, as
by quoting the final lines, in which• the
Hon. writer knits up the threads of his previous
argument; whoever reads this paragraph, will
read the article entire ;
"In conclusion, then, if it be so much more
economical to pay the public debt in thirty-four
than in one hundred and forty-two years; if the
saving in taxes and charges upon the people by
the shorter process be equal to one halt of the
present wealth of the nation; if the additional
lax required to extinguish the debt will be so ,
slight as to be almost imperceptible; if $1,500;'
000,000 of debt will thus be gradually converted
into active capital, and the industry of the
country be thereby greatly promoted and
its trade extended; it a fruitful source of political
corruption will be removed and the safety of the
nation largely increased; if, as honest and high
minded men, we disdain to entail upon posterity
a debt we ave ourselves contracted and are
abundantly able to pay; if the longer we delay
the process of liquidation, the more difficult will
be its accomplishment and the more uncertain its
ultimate completion—ought we not, by every
consideration of honor and patriotism, to com
mence the work of extinction at once, and, in the
most earnest and efficient manner, , tarry it
steadily and persistently forward to its final con
summation ?"
The literary papers ("Popular Novels," by J.
N. Barnes, and "American Culture," by Dr.
Henry Hartshorne), are pleasant reading, but
not above the watermark of ordinary club-con
versation. We observe with curiosity that the
latter essayest considers Rental. a "sensationalist,"
and our Mr. Longfellow a writer as artistic as
Tennyson; and that, himself an anatomist, he
prefers the figures of Windship and Dio Lewis to
the Farnese Hercules.
Mrs. Davis's admirable study of "Dallas Gal
braith," so richly replete with what is beat and
firmest in American national character, advances
a good step by dismissing the hero to his 'New
Mexican explorations, after his renunciation of
wealth and family. Nothing can be finer or more
sadly true than Dallas's meditation on wealth, in
chap. xxi.; for with us it is opulence alone that
can indulge in the higher walks of scholarship;
the libraries, the galleries and museums of older
governments are not accessible here to the poor
man; America, after having taught her children
the rudiments of a mercantile education,imaginea
her duty to be done, and the poor man of genius,
typified by Dallas Galbraith, is forced to pursue
his studies under the protection of some rude and
truculent patron, like Dr. Pritchard, or, failing
the patron, to give them up. Mrs. Harriet Pres
cott Spofford, in "The Strange Passengers," very
skilfully introduces a thread, of weird Spanish ro
mance into the chronicle of the old Now. England
merchant service. Samuel Lockwood contributes
some reminiscences of that Nestor of the Ameri
can press, Major Mordecai M. Noah.
The poetry of the number leads off with the
long, unequal, but affluent poem of Swinburne,
called "Siena." By first perusing the author's
.notes, it is easy to get rid of the apparent ob
scurity of the argument; which done, you have a
very sympathetic tribute to a very beautiful
Tuscan city, whose legends and existing monu
ments are strung together in a catalogue of de
scriptions. These episodes are, it is true, most
inharmoniously conjoined; we miss the art, so
magnificently shown in Byron's itinerary poems,
of linking episodes like cameos to the chain of
the narrative, without shock or dislocation; but
Mr. Swinburne's episodes are good in themselves,
as our readers had proof yesterday in the extract
we quoted paying tribute to Saint Catharine of
Siena. 'The subsequent plea for pity on an err
ing and unfortunate heroine of Siena, the lady
Pia Guar:tenni:li, is full of grace, and blends inge
niously into another plea for .that "mightier
maiden" who is called "ltalia;" easily leading off
to brilliant hopes for the future of Italy, as a re
public and the bride of a purer church. Mr.
Swinburne misses, we are obliged to say, under
the strain of a long historical and topographical
narrative like this, much of the richness and
verbal felicity that constitute his ordinary traits;
and his metrical caprices constantly lose the
character of charms and take the form of liber
ties; still, as a broad and burning picture, fall of
the light of Italy, his "Siena" strikes us as better
than any thing in Rogers, and only inferior to
some of the happiest transcripts of the Brown
ings,—and to the whole of Byron.
Volume I. of Lippeiteon's is completed in this
number, and it is only necessary to glance down
the table of contents, which is stitched on with
the cover, to appreciate the very high position
which this periodical has taken among American
magazines.
Putnam commences—very acceptably to the
bookworms—with u seeoud paper on"Out•of-the
way hooks and Authors,:; the present chapter
serving to revive. a completely dead - novelist of
the Regency perlod, Dr. John Nloore. He was the
author of a romance, "Zeluco," alluded to once
by Byron, and tuns admitted to a quasi immor
tality:, and, at one time. u correspondent of
Robert,RereS. "The Low-Down People" is one
of Deiretoes adrairuble sketches of poor, white
life,, the leery best we have. Mr. S. F.
Cooper arranges a few pages from the
d i ar y of . th e great novella of the same ourname,
whit:llmill be of interest t the admirers of our
first AmCrican romancer. There are uo less than
eighteen orticicu, by so many young and amid-
tious aspirants to literary renown, included In
Putnam's list of contents. Bayard Taylor, (who
Is this month , on the rampage among Bib
mogazines), contributors a long , ballad called
"Fidelia." Mr. Nast's drawing represents Speaker
Colfux, our next Vice-President. Among the
critical notices we observe an ignoble and un
appreciative criticism of Mrs. Kemble's reading.
Eight, pages by J. H. Abbott, in the Junl At
lantic, pretty touch etherize and set at rest the
vexed question of anesthetic discovery. The
claims of Dr. Jackson, of Boston, to the intro
duction of ether, are apparently settled beyond
further cavil. An article on the Talmud, by
Calvin E. Stowe, is timely and informing; the
excellent biblical and hobraie writings of Mr.
Stowe, disembarrassed of all technicality and ad
dressed to the people, are at once scholarly,
ludd, balanced and attractive. 'A remarkably
picturesque sketch of Theophilo Gautier, the
French pictorial writer, is from the pan—
or shall we say the pencil-of. Eugene
Benson, artist and critic. "Abyssinia and
King Theodore," by G. Reynolds, is largely de
voted to, prophecies and speculations now per
manently settled by the artillery of Magdala.
Mr. Bayard Taylor cOntributes tWo articles—a
very pleasant reminiscence of Capri, and a
Florentine poem about Casa Guidi. The only con
siderable novel is that in which Miss Harrison, in
110 chapters of a story called "St. Michael's
Night," starts the fortunes of her young Norman
farmer,Gabriel Duels. The essay on the "Beauty
of Trees," .is by Wilson Flagg. A short
novelette, by Miss Williams, " Two Families,"
hardly molests the supremacy of Miss Harrison
in her more elaborate work. "A Castle of
Indolence" is by S. Adams Hill. " Viz" is a
good horse-article by George E. Waring. The
principal poem is the long, lingering, sensuous,
delicious " June Idyl " of Prof. Lowell. Mr.
Whipple this month occupies the whole of the
space devoted to Literary Notices with an elabo
rate, sympathetic and very readable review of
Mr. Beecher's "Norwood."
Our Young Folks has a good poem by J,
T. Trowbridge, "Watching the Crows," well and
simply illustrated by Homer. The historical
study, "The great Charter," is by J. H. A. Bone.
"The Wrens 4 North America" is an instructive
. .
little paper r by an ornithologist who only pub
lishes his Initials. A capital article "About the
Mountains," is by Ch. J. Foster. "Round
the World Joe" reaches its tenth chapter. Dr.
Hayes's narrative, "Cast away in the Cold," be
comes more interesting as it progresses. The
tailpiece is another Shakespearian puzzle.
We receive the A auntie and Our Young Folks
by the kindness of Mr. T. B. Pugh, BULLETIN
building.
Exploration of nn Australian Gold
Mine.
A correspondent of the Pall Mall Gazelle
describes an exploration with Prince Alfred
in an Australian gold mine. The following
extracts show how gold is got out from a
depth of four hundred feet:
"The depth of the shaft is four hundred
and twenty feet, and it takes us about three
minutes to arrive at the bottom,when we step
out of the cage into a chamber brilliantly
lighted with gas, and find assembled those of
the party who have gone down before us.
The atmosphere feels oppressively hot, damp
and uncomfortable, but we are assured that
it will be better when we get into the minc—
e promise hardly made good by our subse
quent experience. The next trip of the cage
brings our friend the middy, who turns up,or
rather down, none the worse for his, little
misadventure.
"The workings which we are visiting are
upon the 'Golden Point Lead.' This 'lead' is
at a depth of about three hundred and eighty
feet below the surface. A. 'lead' appears to
be simply the bed of an extinct river, in the
sandy and gravelly bottom of which the gold
is found. There is a marked difference be
tween this river bed and the channel within
which it lies, the latter being a sort of pipe
clay called the 'reef,' a barrier of, which rises
gradually on either side, like the banks of an
existing stream. The average hreadth of the
river is about three hundred feet, the thick
ness of the yid-bearing deposit being from
five feet six inches to seven feet. Practically,
however,rather more than this depth of 'wash
dirt' is excavated, as a part of the reef is re
moved also to secure any gold which may
have got into its crevices.
"In the Band of Hope Mine, and in all
similar mines, the main drive or gallery by
which the workings are reached is at a lower
level than any part of those workings, and
lower than they are ever supposed likely to
be. The reason for this is that, as there is a
great deal of water in all alluvial mines, it is
absolutely necessary to keep the mine prop
erly drainecl,which is done by having a grad
ual fall towards the bottom of the shaft.
The bottom of 'the shaft is therefore the lo
`'et2it level in the mine, and from it the main
drive ascends, while the workings are high
er still. We were given to understand that
companies occasionally succumb to the temp
tation of ;invading, or 'jumping' their neigh
bor's'claims, which can hardly be wondered
at when the only legal proof of the incursion
is their being met underground by the
wronged proprietors. The whole of the
drive is lighted with gas jets at intervals.
Both gas and air of course require to be
pumped down into the mine, and this is
done by the same engine which works the
gear for the shaft. We pass several two
stall stables, where the horses seem very com
fortable and in good condition. They are ta
ken down without difficulty, the cage being
removed pro tem., and a horse slung in its
place.
* * * "Our guide warns us not to stir
at the first light which wo come to, as some
enters the shaft when the level of the surface
of the earth is reached, but the cage con
tinues its course some forty feet higher. All
the works are at this level in order to get rid
of the stuff which is left from the washing, by
throwing it down instead of piling it up.
This is done by 'tipping' it out of the trucks
exactly in the way as railway embankments
are made. On getting to the top of the shaft
we find the ,precincts of the cheerful day' by
no. means 'warm,' but remain is our mining
dress, as we are to be photographed,
and occupy the time till all is ready for
that operation by watching the process of
separating the gold from the wash-dirt. The
stuff as it comes up in the trucks is first put
into a puddling mill, which is thcircular vat
about four feet deep and about fifteen feet in
diameter, round which two instruments like
small htirraws are dragged, being attached by
chains to either end of the horizontal beam
which revolves on its centre. The wash-
dirt, having a good deal of water put with it
in the puddling mill, is:mixed up freely by
the action of these barrows. In this way the
heavier parts—the gold, stones, gravel, &c.—
are separated from the clay and earthy stuff,
which is carried off by the water and forms
what is called 'sludge.' In this also gold is
found, but only as the very finest dust.
"The stuff which is obtained from the
puddling mill is shoveled into the top of an
Inclined trough or sluice, and water is, al
lowed to fall on it and run down through it,
a man working at it all the time with a sort
of three-pronged pitchfork. As it is thrown
in, it looks merely like stones and gravel,
but as the water washes the lighter parts
down, we begin to see the gleam of gold at
the upper end of the stuff in the trough. The
stirring with the fork'goes on and still more
appears, till at last this washing Is finished,
and we see some three feet or so of the trough
; covered with gold a couple of inches deep.
The water is turned off, and we tire allowed
Y, EVENING BULLETIN-PIIILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, MAY 22,1808
THE DA
.
to crowd round and select Specimens, a pri
vilege of which some avail thernselves very
freely, for the liberality of the com
pany is unbounded. The Milk, of the
gold,' as I have just said, is found, as 'dust,'
that is, little grains from the size, of a large
pin's head, downwards, the Most minu% par
ticles being held in suspension'in the 'sludge.'
The washing is then transferred With great
care to a perforated dish, which is shaken
about in a basin of water. Through the holes
the gold dust settles in the outer basin, while
in the dish are collected all the nuggets and
foreign bodies, such as iron bolts, which are
too heavy to be separated by the water in the
sluice, and too large to get through the holes.
The dish is then removed, and a man, shak
ing the basin like a sieve, brings to the top
the sand, small nails, &c„ which are among
the gold dust. The nails are removed, by a
magnet, ' and the sand is washed off by a pe
culiar jerk just sufficient to take it over the
aide, the gold remaining undisturbed in the
basin.
"The sludge mill consists of a circular vat
of about the same size as the puddling mill,
but here we see revolving four nearly hori
zontal spouts or gutters of metal,do wn which
the sludge, which has been mixed with more
water,. flows from the centre, and, striking
against the edge of thO vat, runs out of an
opening in the middle of the floor. In this
way the sand is distributed evenly around the
sides of the mill, the heavier particles being
deposited farthest from the centre, where the
impetus they have acquired in running down
the spouts naturally sends them. Thus the
sand is laid in even concentric rings in pro
portion to its specific:
gravity, and in the out
side circle all the gold is collected. The gold,
being now contained in a comparatively small
quantity of sand, is'easily separated from it
by means of mercury.
"We were told that about 1,800 trucks of
wash-dirt are sent to the surface of the shaft
(up which we had just come) every twenty
four hours, and that 2,500,000 cubic feet of
earth have been excavated, from which
150,000 ounces of gold have been washed,
worth about £608,000; that the work is car
ried on in three shifts of eight hours each by
350 men, whose monthly wages amount to
£3,360,, and that the cost to the mine for tim
ber,, lighting, &c., comes to about £3,500 per
moth.

Annrem or A M URDERER. —Yeetetday Chief of De
.
tectives Lemon received a telegram from Detective
Webb that he had arrested James Ellin,ger in New
York. The latter tea noted offender. well known to
the police annals of our city, and will be brought on
to our y for trial immediately. He was concerned
in the murder of Richard Taylor, who was beaten in a
fleht at Fifth and Reed streets on the afternoon of
last election day, and soon after the occurrence died
from his injuries. Taylor was thirty-eight years of
age, a married man, residing at 530 Wiley street. On
the day mentioned he had occasion to pais the
corner of Reed and Fifth streets, when without any
provocation whatever be was set upon by a gang of
rowdies and terribly beaten, being knocked down, and
when prostrate jumped upon by one of the more des
perate assailants. At the Coroner's investigation it
was testified that James Ellinger, Daniel Reading,
Chris. Rune, Augustus Boltz, Joseph Goodw'n,,
William Teal, and Thomas Coged were seen assault
ing Taylor. The jury, after hearing all the thetimony,
rendered a verdict to the effect that the death of
Taylor Was caused by the violence of the parties
named, Warrants were issued for their arrest, but
Effinger could not be found, although every secret
place where there was any probability of his lurking
was scrutinized. At last, through the agency of
three women, Ettinger was disguised ee a female, and
under this cover escaped from the "Sky Parlor," on
.Third street, where he had for some time been staying,
and made his way from the city. The female friends
• of the fugitive were placed under 4)2,500 bail each for
their agency in his escape. Winger will arrive in
this city to-day:
