UTAH'S SILVER MOUNTAIN.
[Correspondence of the New York Sun.
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

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

Within one short year the name of 'Little

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

a thousand dollars for every dollar they: had
invested. A. thousand per cent, was no bad

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.
