UniTon:?I have rend with considcrabl - interest Mr. Sccry's communication on (lie inin oral resources of tho upper portion of Uuioi ' County ; but I was surprised to find a man win quoted Tuomey, spell Nuckolls with a K. It i 'gratifying to know that there are_somo gentle hien who have the menus, or tYie uerve, to inves in any enterprise which will tend toward tin w developemcut of a country's resources; am whatever may be ono's opinion about the profita I blcness of mining,_cvcry step toward unmnskiiif J the hidden wealth,of a country is iu the riglii \ direction. Every enlcrpriso which attracts public altcntlou has a tendency to induce immigration froiu abroad, to iutroducc capital, nnd fc to give employment to the needy, which is the I highway to prosperity. If 1 am not mistaken, Mr. Liebcr is far more explicit than Tuomey on the wealth of the mineral resources in the neighborhood Mr. Scery speaks of. Linker was an ' accomplished mineralogist and went "con ^ amorc" into the details of his work, lie was n ? correspondent of the most distinguished lniucrL alogists in this country and Europe, which gave f|| liim great fuciiilios. Lieber was sanguine In the opiuion that taking some point near Liine* stone Springs and describing a circle ten miles in diameter you would includo the richest min, eral region of the Stale. Gold, silver, lead and the matrix of the Diamond, are all known to exist in this area, and Licbcr fell as certain, in his own mind, of his opinion as did the old Monk when ho assured his pool llock that the day was nop^^distant when they would all feel thankful^^rbleseings they drejuued not of, which wrgrc wow hidden under their feet. It is gratifying to see a growing disposition ' on the part of your patrons throughout the County to contribute to your columns and keep waii rtoota.l < A..M t I>o AAltililinn f ttiA Pniinltf _ Juu wmv.WW- VIM. There is not ft neighborhood in the County wherein some one may not bo found who can imprest your readcrson tome subjeet, and every o^F who attempts it, in ever so.small a way, nil1 be surpiised by his own improvement as well as the interest ho begins to feel in his County's prosperity.. Mo one can read of successful school examinations, Sunday School Exhibitions, the building of new churches aud new school houses, without feeling that the moral tone of tho County is being elevated. While no one can read of the introduction of a new machine, an improved agricultural implement, or the development of some new industry, without uhepe of returning prosperity.
