SALT LAKE Cm, Jan. 21 —The wonder. ful silver mine recently discovered in this Territory, and known al the 'Little Emma,' has been sold by the fortunate discoverers I. the bank of California, and to-day the ti tles were handed over to that corporation. The interest remaining in the hands of the dis severer' when the_great California Bask opened negotiation was three-fourths of the entire mine, and for that interest the bank has paid 1)900,000. The remarkable discovery of this mine, and the wonderful effect it is likely to have upon the Imitation of Utah's mach vexed metal detention, have attached a degree of interest to it Which cannot fail to be world wide, and therefore a brief sketch of the mine sot discoverers, and the mantic in cident connected with the achievement may prove interesting. EARLY DiSOMIRAGEMENTS For many years the chime of Utah have known that their °was great misers, wealth in their mountains and canons; but the atm dy resolve of their remarkable leader has forbidden soy attempt to develop it. His word hie been law, and the poverty.striekeo disciple have preferred his favor to the al b:accents of the glittering ores. Oonsioa• ally, however, a "rebellious spirit has f Mowed its owe aspiration, and done its own 'pros pecting; in spite of all the jeers and the ridi• enle of the community and the maledictions of the rostrum, and among these were the ad venturous spirits Woodman and Chrisholin, who, by their recent good fortune have been raised from comparative poverty to untold Wealth. JAMES Z. WOODMAN, who discovered and located the Emma, is an easy natu-ed Englishman, one of those good fellows ever ready for anything not very seri ous. For fifteen years he has wandered thro' the Territories and the States of the Pacific, s professional miner, sometimes up, sometimes down; more dependent upon a strong back and willing -hands than upon scholastic at tainments in . his prospecting experience.— With no problems to solve for professors, bard hots wets nursed and garnished in his crud am, He knew an 'iodieation• as readily as most moo, and came to this place four or five years ago and 'want Iprospecting' round, and finally found himself in Little Cottonwood, living fro! day to day as bell he could. He had seen 'cropping.' of galena that indicated the presence of a body of argeotiferous ore somewhere, and with heritiam he began THE SIEGE OF THE MOUNTAIN For months' he 'pegged' away, first in one losality and thee in mother. The record e:• hibits nameroac 'locations' and 'claims' to James E. Woodman and his Bohemian asao• elates. " IC the precarious life of prospecting, a few dollars is a great thing, and the binnteons hoed of a donor or looser is grasped with a grateful vim. Days, weeks and months pass. ed away; yet Woodman - and Chisholm keep piorcieg the mountain side solitary and alone. They `wokir lan entire winter is the canon, with .nothing to distract them bet the howl ing of the whiffs and the occasional NUMMI! or Tee MOUNTAIN RAOUL But the hope tbat never dies invigorates them to Tenured efforts after each discour• agement t aad so, reiolved to probe the mono taia to :Writ, centre if necessary, tbeyia• bor oh.

No hipwreeked mariners ever beheld the sight of land or sail with greater joy ; but disap. peintment still awaited tbe miners. It was, after all, 'only float ore . ' lialf a.ton or more of the sought for treasure had in the up. heaving and seething of the elements, a mil lion years before, daubed away into the body of other rooks and lost its track back again to the mother ledge, and was no-criore.

A week more palmed away after that denial,- and again there was' a gay and great rejoicing. Woodman and Chisholm bad now 'struck .it.' One sudden blow with a pick. axe dislodged a huge boulder, and there be fore the delighted eyes of the miners lay the silver metal—not in streaks, not in thin en. certain veins, bet in a huge, solid mesa ap. seared the covered treasure! With flushed_ fans aed beating hearts they dig further ea but there is no end, and so with thankful hearts and happy prospects they quit the _scene_to_rela te-t heir-good-fort see —To-Ch is-- holm was assigned the task of providing_a name for the new discovery. In the darkest hour of their trials, when success seemed • rtheat off, and hope bad almost died out; .ame-t04.1-hisholm A LETTER FROM 111/3 FAITHFUL WIFE ma are decd h Illinois, bidding him labor on for the love be bore her- and his little Emma, who prat tled about her absent papa from moreiog till, night. The letter was new life, for Chisholm 'was spurred on to new efforts and final sue clean. And so he christened the mine Little Emma in token of the gratitude be felt for the incidental mention of the child's name. Within one short year the name of 'Little Emma' has become a household word in the mountains, and bas traveled on crude gunny sacks from one end of the world to the other. The money comes. Soon the news spreads, visitor after visitor descends the (shaft' and behold no "ledge" of six, ten, or twenty feet wide, hut a mountain of areentifcronii galena ore. Nolvalle save yet been discovered, and excavations have been made in every di• reotion without reaching beyond the precious metal .There is already in sight immense wealth, and work enough for fifty men for a whole generation in following iteldipe,"spure' "angles,' and oehootis! With success came money Everybody was ready to buy. It was only a matter of figures, could they reach it, not the absolute value, as that none could reckon The first Bale was $30,000 for a sixth interest in twists. ty-four hundred feet, The nest, soon after, $lO,OOO for a Modred feet, end there it stop ped—no one would sell, the Mils wee over. A NEW YORKER NEXT APPEARED upon the ground ak claimant for part propri. etership of the Emma He had eighteen months before furnished the needy prospect- or, Woodman. 575 nod 525—possible some more —and had bought a deed man's claim, and now he demanded'an injunction. The Emma came before the Cann, end there it still- rests, but, in davit° of legal threats, Woodman, to meet the little expenses of that arrange ment, sold, a few weeks ago, the qusrtcr of the mine for follo,ooo is coin Ts-day Cal ifornia capitalists give $900,000 in coin for the remaining, thteefourths, and thus the Em ma has passed into the hands of those who have capital enough to fight pcss:tsion for a generation. The price of anything in the West is not always its value. The country is still young. capitalists are few, and the men of millions are rare. The opportunities for investment there are unknown to many, and necessity and occident often rule the passing hour.— .Most of the recent proprietors of the Emma could have well held to their possession— they had . no pressing wants. The mine was returning over five thousand dollars aday net; but they got-it easy, there was a lawsuit on hand, and the offer, was tempting. , ,The lar gest proprietors have prnbably, now' pocketed a thousand dollars for every dollar they: had invested. A. thousand per cent, was no bad return.

SAVING FOR OLD AGE.—No ODD denies that it is wise to make provision for old age, but we are not at all agreed as to the kind of provisions it is best to lay in. Certainly we shall want a little money, for a destitute old man is, indeed, a sorry sight; yes, save money by all means. lint an old • man needs just that particular kind of strength which young Men are apt to wattte.—Many— a-fool— ish young fellow will. throw away on a boll day a certain amount of nervous energy which he will never feel the want of until he is seventy, and then hew meoh he will want it 1 It is serious, but trui, that .a bottle of Champagne at twenty will intensify the rhea. enatism at threlidose. It is a foot that over tasking the eyes at fourteen may necessitate the aid of speetaoles at forty instead of sixty. We advise our young readers to be saving of health for their old age, for the maxim holds good in regard to health as to money. ' Waste not, want not.' It is the greatest mistake to Frappes° that violation •of the laws of health can escape its penalty. Nature forgives oo sin, no error; she lets off the offender for fif ty years sometimes, but Ihe'oatches him at last, and in fl icts the punishment just when, just where, and just how he feels it most.— Save up for old age, but save, knowledge; save the recollection of good and noble deeds, innocent pleasures, and pure thoughts, save friends, save' love. Save rieb stores of that kind of wealth whiph time cannot nor death take away. DROWNED WHILE BEING BAPTISED.--A few weeks since Dr. A. P.

Shortly after his marriage, Dr. Peweell united with the Christian Church, and Sunday hist was ap. pointed as the day of his baptism, be having requested his pastor, the Rev. J.
