The mine was discovered by two men from Illinois, who say that a long time ago, before the old French war, their great grandfather, an old miner, discovered silver and opened a mine at this piace; that an opening. to the depth of 8) feet was made by him, and silver in large quan- tities was found, but just at the time he was to receive the reward of his labor he was driven off the officers of the colonial government, who claimed the siiver as belonging to the crown of Englend. The old miner made a careful plat of the’ place, intending to return at some ruture time and go to work ngain, but the French war breaking out at that time,'and t in the line of Gen. Braddock other causes unknown now, prevented his re- turn. ‘The description of the place where the silver was found has been carefully kept by his descendants, and now, after the lapse of a cen- tury, they come to the scene of their ancestor's discoveries for the purpose of reopening the mine. ———— ‘Tue Tammany Ring Feavups—Tweed, Hall and Connolly Indicted —The Frand jary of the New York Court of Oyer and Terminer yester- day presented four indictments against mem- bers of the Tammany ring.
