Miles of Silver.
A Utter from Caribou, Colorado, has
tili? ruining gossip :
"The grandest cntcrprifc of tins gold
and silver region is the 'Caribou ui'no,'
located about mg lit bundled yards west
of the lown^tnn alt it m>o of ten thou
sand feet above tide water. It is'uni
versally conceded by experienced miners
to be the richest and hist paying silver
mitte' in proportit n to its development
of which we have tiny record. On the
surfuoc it extends one thousand four
hundred leet, for which a govcrnmont
title has been obtained. There are eleu
en shafts, aggregating ovor ono thou
sand feet, the deepest of which is ono
hundred and ninety feet from tho sur
face The mine contains ten levels ag
gregating nut lar from one thousand
tbicft hundred fer-t, width ofereviee from
Fcven to nine feet, with smooth and
well-defined walls.
Tins extraordinary silver ledge is im
bedded in a mountain of syenite, but
the vein is so pet fett.that mining opera
tions are carried on at a rapid rate, and
ns the ores contain a large per cent, of
sulpharets and galena, carrying tons of
fcilwr glance and brittle silver, with a
very little zinc bl.udo, and no antimony
or arsenic of an) consequence they arc
rendered exceedingly easy of reduction.
Vihi'e their richness is almost fabulom,
panics offer tt* wager that a tou of ore
can be obtained from this mine thatwill
yield 810.000' coiu value.
On the head of One of the forks of
M idle Doulderi six miles west of Cari
bou, a wonderful lode has recently been
discovered! U appears to bo the out
croppings of an cuormo^? silver ledge,
or pystem of lodes, so liuked and woveu
together as to give them the appearance
of < ne vast lode, literally bursting from
the mountain. By actual measurement
it :s fixty three feet in width, carrying
ore the entire distauoo that shews an
?s?ay varying from scveuty five to ruic
thonstbd dollars silver per tun.
On tho Fourth of July it was discov
rrcd,.end thus it is called the "Fourth
of july'' lode: The fububus tales of
G looudu aro not moro woudorful than
the reality of this great freak of Nature
lr cau bo distinctly traccJ over the
saowy range, and into tho Middle Park,
a distance of five miles. Oac pioce of
ore takeu from the discovery shaft at a
d' pth of fif.ocn feet, and assayed ..by
Prof. Dawley gave over 62,000 silver
prr tU.u. The mai-j shaft is located at
tho timber line, but tho ledgo. extends
up the mountain iuto perpetual soow
banks, and over the raugo aud down the
western slope to the Pacific waters.
Tho surrounding formation is primary
granite, and tho aro carriet galena; black
and gray sulphuruts, grocu and blue
carbonate of copper with hero aud there
(.nets of zinc, uracoic aud antimony.
A large body of beautiful timber is near
the mine., aud six hundred and forty
acres arc already claimed by ouc otn
pany. Gcod bay, lands and graving
range are in the valley below and thj
reinwill afford room aud miter ial?
judging from tho surface indications?
for a hundred thousand men to mine for
generations to come.
Singular Crime.
A most cxlraodiuary use of adverti
sing as a means for the promotion of
erimo was recently revailed in tho crimi.
tial oourts of Australia. Two young
Ipon named Nichols and Lester, both
from England and both persons of some
education, after puTsning criminal lives
for several years with' varying success,
hit npon the idea of U3*mg tho adver
tising columns of the newspaper* to as
sist them in their destgns. Nickols
began'the business by advertising in tho
Sydney journals for a companion to a
lady iu the country. Numerous appli
cants presented themselves but ouly
those were selccdted who wcrejwell pro
vided with luggage Theso wero en
gaged and sent one after tho other into
tho buuh, where they woro robbad of al 1
they had. While serving a term iu
prison for theso robberies Nihgts bo
came acquainted with Lester, who was
serving a term for forgery: and when the
two woro discharged they concluded to
nnite their interest and try their fortune
together, By advertising they got hold
of a young man who had somo money j
took him down to the river Paramatta
and murdered him, having first drug
ged him wi/h laudanum. Encouragod by
thoir success in this iustaocc, a few days
afterward thoy captured and murdered
another victim and might have proceed
ed with their work iudofinately if their
last crime bad not boon discovered. Tho
fact in both of those cases wero brought
out on the trial of the culprits, who wcro
convicted and promptly hanged' in Syd
ney, tho city which they had made the
center o their operations'
I'sed Lu Money.
A correspondent who visited the Uni
lcd States Trcosury Department at Wash
ington, says: I made a tour of oro of tho
r mitt* while tho tl$fd op money was being
??r-??-. - VSi.JL-a_a..i--^-.i.rir~- tatst ?
counted a few days since- and one of the
ladies showed nie a pockot-book which
was sent to tho Department by one of
the officers of the department who sta
ted that it had been lost throe years
nnd just turned up in tho shape sent,
lie paid tho man wf o lost it claimed
that it held $45 when lost, it was for
warded w'lh the hope that not with
standing tho seeming impossibility of
deciphering the mass of pulp remain
ing of the money, something inig.ht be
made or it. As I looked nt it not a line,
mark, or figure denoting its value could
be traced, nnd I asked the lady to whom
it was Qsigned for verification if who
could do anything iu the way of deci
phering it.
"() yes," she replied, turning over
some of tho fragments, "there is a Qve
J dollar legal tender."
1 looked into her face, expecting to
so n smile at the joke r.ho wo.? playing
upon mo ; but. she was instead earnestly
putting the fragment? together, to see
how many legal timbers she could mikel
To me this seemed a display of genius
not to be attained by many members of
the human family, nnd the successful
few must belong to the female sex.
This lady has remark.ible skill in this
particular direction, an J has saved many
hundred of dollars to the Government,
as well as gladdened the hearts of num
bers who would except fur this ability
on her part, have loi-t largo su us of
money. The loser of this pocket book
will from the wreck otherwise total save
perhaps his entire $10 through her.

In the coals aglow, scenes of loveliness

weird aud magic hue. In lbs singing
of tho burning log, echoed cadences of
voices, that, mctyha-p, havo lost their
gleeful tones, or are husho 1 oh earth,
come liko a forest song so sweetly sad
In the white nahes, late o' Christmas
night, -f Ided hands, the white arm that
used to rest upon fho shoulder, the palo,

What human heart has net its meuories
that come fo sacredly back at Christmas !
Wo'ds of chcor, hnppy groupings,
merry greetings, gifts and gatherings,
these are the features of tThrjetnras, and
these are all but the utterances and cx

of the season that comes down iu his

The herald- 6lars, that told the watching
shepherds of the advent of the Infant
God, announced the presence on earth
of Him, who is the personification of
"Love ;" of II im'whose character was
expressed iu the Golden Maxim, "Do
nnto others us you would have others do
unto you." Those same rtars have
shone upon the world ever since that
grcatc>t epoch, and utter at this season
the memorial id'that same "sweet story
of old." While their radiant influonco

Destructive Fire in Chester? Hie
Business Portion of tho Town
in Ashes.
The fire-fiend has an especial grudge
agaiuet the beautiful and enterprising
Town of Chester in this Slate. This is
the second timo in a short period that
this Town has been almost destroyed by
conflagration. O.1 Sunday morning
December 15th, a disastrous fire broke
out in this place, and despite the heroic
effort* of the cteizctw, over one half of
the busino's part of tho Town was re
duced io ashos. Tho total loss is esti
mated at one hundred ami fifty thousand
dollars. Besides these cou?ccutive and
ruinous fires, a hurricane destroyed a
large amount of property iu this place
last year.
Tho insurance upon the house, stores
and other property destroyed amounts
to enly sixty thousand dollars. Amidst
our sympathy for this Town let us make
practical uso of the lesson taught. Let
us in Orangeburg renew aud red >ublo
our precautions and preparations against
such a dire contingency here.
Hie Fence Law.
A bill has boon introduced in the
House of .Representatives, in our Stute
Legislature, to repeal the existing fence
laws. This subject was up before the
hist Legislature and has been very
generally discussed throughout the
State. The farmers seem to be divided
in opinion in regard to the tnattor. This
difference seems to be in accordance with
the locality aud particular advantages or
disadvantages of the various sections of
our State.
No doubt the co.st of fences is enor
mous, doubtless more than the value of
the stock fenced out in somo counties.
This hill is a proposition to repeal the
existing fonco laws. Now it is well
known that tho existing fenco laws arc
practically a dead letter. A-lawful
fence, one Tive fect high from tho lovo
of the ground, or as it *s otherwiso cx
- pressed, oue "horse high-, pig tight, and
bull-strong," is"ns rafe ns- vcuisbn. In
deed' the general run of fciioc?., in somo
I sections, nrc virtually no fences at nil.
And what wore prolific catsc of ncghbnrs
quarrel* is thoro in this State, than tho
invasion of stock over add through these
defective barriers? Tho quest ion is
reduced down to one of fencing out or
fencing In. Now the present law in
effect commands feucing-tffat. Hut this
law is inoperative aud a cause of trouble.
It is sin-ply proposed by this bill I? try
fencing iu.4
The provisions of the bill, summed up
arc as follows j
The bouundary line of each tract of
land is made a lawful fence; it is uulaw
ful for ptock to run at large beyond their
owuer's lands ; and the owuers arc liable
for all damages doue by stray stock .
the mode of obtaining legal redress fi r
damage is prescribed ; and ouch county
is to decido, by a popular vote to be
taken iu January 1S73, whether such
county will accept or reject the act.
Some objection is made to this lust
piovision, which allows different funoo
laws iu adjoining counties. But we can
sec no serious difficulty in this, and feint
litr laws operate iu other States.
The bill has been referred to the Com
mittee on Agriculture, and it is thought
will be favorably reported upon.
Legislature.
Since our last report sonie important
business bns been transacted ~by our
legislators in council met. On Friday
last, as we nuounccd in our last issu?,
the election for Judge of the fifth cir
cuit took place. The vote stood on tho
first ballot, eighty fin Carpenter, aud
forty three for Youulnus, who w is
the next highest candidate.
In the House fiual action has been
taken upon five bills of importance.
These are as follows: The tax bill,
authorizing a levy of fifteen mills for
State and '.County purposes ; the bill to
prevent County Commissioners from
being interested in County contracts ;
the bill to "provide for the payment of
salaries of members at the end of each
regular session ; the bill to repeal tho
State license law; and lire hilt to extend
the time for recording conveyances of
; reul estate from thi;ty three days to
three months. All these bills have pro
gressed favorably iu the Senate aud will
doubtless become la*s. One fault wc
have to find with the Senate. It is re
ported that that body proposes to amend
the bill to rep -al the license law so as
not to t?kc effect until1 April >>t, 1&J&.
This will force' another quarterly pay
ment which should have been prevented.
In the Senate, the house bill direct
ing a tax levy of ?ltecn mills, was
passed to a third reading and ordered
to be engrossed.
