Valuable Discoveries ofeopper Ore in the
Gadsden Territory.
Wo had exhibited to us on yesterday a fine
specimen of copper ore, which to all appear
ance, contained a very large proportion of the
pure metal, as it is visible all over the surface
of the specimen. The mine from which it is
extracted is situated in the Gadsden purchase,
and, as will be seen by_ the subjoined abstract
of a letter written to Mr. Cory, member of the
Assembly of this State, promises to prove of
incalculable valise.
The letter referred to is dated at Camp Agua
Caliente, Arizona Mountains, January 12th
1854.
The writer some months previously chanced •
to fall in with a party who were preparing to
explore that portion of Sonora acquired by the
Gadsden treaty, and to take possession of val
uable mines, should they be so fortunate
as to discover such. Tim party in time found
a copper mine, which has proven to be rich and
extensive. The ore has been assayed, and
found to contain seventy .five per cent of cop.
per, in addition to which there are from one to
one and a half ounces or gold per hundred
wci ght.
This mine is within one hundred miles of
teamboat navigation on the Colorado river.—
!he writer, however, says thateight of the coin
any were left at the mines to build houses and
old possession of their claim, while the
amainder are engaged in making explorations
for silver. Sever n al n mines containing lend, nil.
wry and some copper, also a little gold have
been discovered. The richness of the speci•
metes had not been tested. There is no doubt
in the mind of the writer, that the country pos•
sesses, in a great measure, the mineral wealth
it is reputed to have. The gold mines are
represented nn the poorest of nil.
'The silver and leitd mines appear as if they
were worked some fifty or more years ago.—
The cause of their being abandoned was the
hostility of the Indians, which continues to this
day to be dreaded by the Mexican race.
The products of the country are sold cheap,
but foreign goods are held at exorbitant rates.
The writer says that he would like no better
business than that of inerchandizing reithin the
American territory adjacent to the new bonn.
dary line. Dry goods, on which the tramper.
tation charges are trifling, will yield an aver ,
age profit of one hundred per cent.
Shares in the Company's mineral property
are valued at from $5OOO to $50,000. The
writer says that, although these pricer may
sewn visionary, it should be considered that
twenty•four men only have an inexhaustible

idenee of her son-in•law, Judge White, of this
borough, Mrs. JUDITH McOoNNEI.I,, in the
934 year of hor,age.
The deceased wits indeed a relic of the last
century. She was born in Hay of the year
1763, in Frederick county, Virginia. While
she was finite young her littler emigrated to
Central Pennsylvania, yet in its rude state—
the home of the notice Indian. With the
events of the early settlement of Pennsylvania
prior to the establishment of its present form
of government, she was familiar and always
retained a lively recollection. Many a time
and oft" the writer of this has listened to her
detailed nod interesting accounts of the den.
Kers and uncertainties of what was their fron
tier life. Her father settled with his family - in
Huntingdon County, adhere she afterwards
married Alexander McConnell, Esq., with
whom she lived as a devoted wife until his
death in 1822. Shortly after that time she
crossed the Allegheny mountains and made
her home in the family of her youti n , at daugh
ter, where elm died. Mrs. McConnell was
trimly 'a remarkable woman, and there aro
ninny features of her long life to excite the
pride and emulation of her numerous posteri•
ty. It has been the lot of few women to live
so long and so well. Her heart was full of the
charities and sympathies of her sex. Her in
tellect was ever vigorous and active. Early in
life her mind was directed to religion, and to
act as an humble, sincere christian was her
-constant effort. An she lived and died—calm
serene, ham. To the last the kindness and
usefulness of her nature was manifest. But a
few moments before her death, her reason yet
unclouded, she was solicitous for the health
and happiness of those about her and fearful
lest she should be what she called a "trouble."
In the course of nature, her earthly career
was complete ; yet so necessary bud she be
come to the household of her later days,that
her absconee will bo an unreconciled reality.—
To the immediate circle of her friends she
seems to have an immortally, so long had she
resisted the "fell destroyer." But the grave
has at last achieved its victory. Full of years
she now sleop3 the sleep of death, with the
sweet unimorie. of a pure life about her.-
"Nothing is here for tears, nothing to wail,
Or knock the breast ; no weakness or con
tempt,
Dispraise or blame, nothing but well and fair,
And What may comfort us in a death so no

HVGEANA,
Brought Home to the Door of the Million.
WONDERFUL DISCOVERY has recent
/1 ly been made by Dr. Curtis, of this city, in
the treatment of Consumption. Asthma and all
diseases of the LIIUg. We refer to "Dr. Curtis'
Dygeans, or Inhaling Ilygean Vapor and Cher
ry Syrup." With this new method 1)r. C. has
restored many afflicted ones to perfect health ;
as au evidence of which he has innumerable :my
thic:des. Speaking of the treatmeat, a physi
cian remarks: It is evident that inhaling—con
stantly breathing an agreeable, healing vapor,
the medicinal properties must come in direct con
tact with the whole of the arial cavity of the
Mugs, and thus escape the many and varied
changes produced upon them when introduced
into the stomach, and subjected to the process
of digestion. The Hygeana is for sale at all the
Itruggi,ts' throughout the country.
