In 1848 the ‘of Sardinia gave to this church a greater amount of liberty and covferred upon the pastors and people the right of establishing their religious worship wherever bot fit in that kiogdom.

John Smith, seaman on board the American Congress, was on watch at four o'clock; some time after, I heard a blow, andI looked up and saw the cook and Reardon; heard Reardon say ,‘what the b—l did you scald me for;”? he had a belaying pin in his hand; he was holiing it up; I saw the poe 8 bleeding from tke forehead; the cook ask hi hat he struck him for; I did not any answer; I was as near as to that chair (ten feet} took the cook and laid him in a chair in the galley; they were a little distance from the galley whea I saw them; I think Reardon had hold of the belaying pin by the thin end; when I took tne cook away Reardon had the belay. ing pin in his hand; I did not see it after; I saw the cook next day and he was crazy; [said to him, ‘Miller, how are you getting along;” but I could get no answer from him; e died on Thursday night, about balf-past 11 o'clock; I ted heen on deck fifteen or twenty minutes when I heard the blow.

David Uhl, practising pnysician, deposed that he held ‘& post mortem examination Clg tage Dey deceased on 16th April last; found a mark about the size of a shilling piece, on the tovof the forehead, above the eye; found a,red mark on the brain, and about two to four ounces of blood over the brain; bis death was caused by contusion of the brainfrom @ blow: just below the mark there was @ ll fracture of the temporal bone. I should think the injury was inflicted with some dull instrument; such sn in-trument as this belaying pin would be likely to cause it. Cross-examined: The bone under the injury was not at all depressed or fractured. Q. Had you been present a! the time be received the injury, might not probably th individual have been saved? A. He might have been saved: sometimes a very slight blow produces desth, and sometimes a ‘heavy blow does not itis difficult to say positively as to whether I could have reovered him; thin blow was pot from external appearances a severe blow. Oliver Simpson, seaman on board, deposed that he was down below when the difficulty occurred; Reardon cams down and said to me, *‘I have paid the cook;’’ [ went up in a couple of heurs afterwards; there were a lot of pas- sengers at the galley door; the cook said, ‘“ look where Reardon struck me; Davis held up the belaying pia and said it was with that he struck him; Reardon wi and coutd hear the cook say ‘ look where he struck me. Croas-examined—It was between two ai when Reardon came down and told me he had paid Miller; cannot speak with accuracy. John Ferris deposed—I was chief mate on board the American Congress ; I did not see the occurrence ; about 2 o’clock Reardon came upon the main deck, and said the cock had been + him ; he had a lot of flour all over ‘one side of his face, but from underneath the eye the flour was gone, it looked very red and inflamed, and as if the water that had been running from his eye had wash- ed the flour off ; I heard no more til 5 o'clock, when one of the passengers came to me and said that Michael Rear- don had killed the cook ; I came up about 6 o’cleck ; the cook appeared then to be asleep ; I felt the wound; it ap- to be very soft; Isaw him at 5 and at 7 or8 o’clock next mornit at 7 or 8 o'clock he was sarenget, and continued so till he died, on the 14th. about 1134 o’clock at night ; the cook had always been healthy.

Q—Did you not say in your examination before the Commissioner that you said to Reardon that you would not interfere, and that they must fight it out among themselves? A—No, I did not ; I said I supy that Reardon was interfering with the cook ; I did not inquire into the cause of this injury; I did not call on the cook to ask him — should one of the passer ‘and asked the witness @id he ssy—‘ I know nothing all about it; they must fight it out between themselves ; or some such expression Inever mentioned the word fight. we do not interfere. feres with the W.

Tallmadge and others vs. the East iver Bank.— This case having been argued by Messrs. Hugh Mexwell and R. Mott for plaintiffs, and by ex-Chief Justice 5. Jones for defendants, the following decision was given by Judge Campbell:— An injunction order was granted on the complaint of the plaiutiffs, alleging that the East River Bank had pur- chased certain premires on the northeast coruer of Third avenue and Sc. Mark’s place, in the city, and were about tearing down the present building for’ the purpoxe of erecting & bank ouse, which should extend to the | northerly line of Highth ‘street or St. Mark's place, as originally laid out on the commissioner's map, snd that such building, whem erected, would project or extend eight feet beyond the houses of the plaintiifs and others, owners of property on Eighth street or St Muark’s place, between Third and Second avenues; and they fur- ther charge, that more than tweaty years ago, Thomas E. Davis, then being the ‘owner of the property on both sides of St. Mark’s place, and being desirous of selling the same, or portions, and erecting, or causing to ba erected, | houses thereon, and to sell the same, agreed and stipu- | lated that the north line of said street should virtually be | | extended eight feet farther north; that all the houses should be built upon such new line, reserving the intor- vening space between eaid line and the north line of the street, as originally laid out as court yard, aad fur- ther, that, in pursuance of said agreement and in oon- formity thereto, all the houses were placed back eight fect, including the house qn the premises in question, and that this was done nearly or quite tweaty years ago. The complaint further states that the houses oo this street are large and expensive and the value of property on the street and its beauty much increased by reason of these open court yards and this virtual increase in the width of the street; and they insist that the space of | eight feet was set apart and dedicated to the use of the | Public, and cannot be reclaimed. The dofendaata, in their | afidavit, say that they do not believe any such agree- ment or stipulation was made by Mr. Davis, and they reason, that before the time of the alleged | reement, he conveyed the property in | question to one Mr. Henriques, and that, by such convey- ance. the southern boundary of the premises was the northerly line of Eighth etreet as laid down, and not the new line sought to be established eight feet te the north of such original north line of the street. They further show that the premises. after the erection of the present buildings thereon, or about that time, were mortgaged by the then owner to the Jackson Marine insurance | Company, and that, in and by such mortgage, the south- erly ling f the property was described as tho north line Of the street aa luid down; aad farther, that on a fore- closure of such mortgage, the master’s deed conveyed to the said insurance company the premises ax described in | the mortgage; that the insurance company conveyed to | the grantor of the defendant; by the same boundary, | and that sueh grantor, by the same boundary, conveyed | i | to the defendant; and that throughout. in alt the chain of conveyances for more than tweaty years, the uniform | description of the premises bounded then on the svuth- | erly side by the northerly lineof the street. The de- fendants fix 1834 as the period when the mortgage waa executed to the ivsurance company, and under which the company afterwards obtained title, and the defendants state that ac this time, 1834, no buildings had been erect- ‘on the premises, In 1836 the insurance company ob- tained, by a sale under a foreclosure. the fee of the pro- ty, sud in 1844 they sold the premises to Caleb 0. ted. the defendants’ grantor. In the eoaveyance to | Halsted there is the following clauses:—'‘The premises | hereby conveyed, including a certain court yard of about eight feet in width, Iaid off on the southerly side there- | of."' The complaint charges thet the deed from Mr. Halsted to the nts contained a clause making the grant to seid defendant ‘subject to all existing re- strictions and powerpc in — to keepiag the — space or court yal petually open as such court yal or street.” It dn denied by che defeadants that there is | | such a clause. The deed was used in the argument, and | the clause in question, as contalned in the deed, I do not | find in the papers before me; but it was, as I understood | in substance, that the grant was subject to such cove- nants or restrictions, if any existed. It dees not seem to me to be very material whether the clause wasas contend: | ed for by the plaintiff. or as set forth im the deed. The important question is whether there was an original agreement, and if s0, what was it? Ass matter of fact, Tentertain no doubt on the subject; so far as the proof is before me it is not full and complete, and yet the cir- cumstances actually existing are of a marked and, it | seems to me, an unanswerable character. A new street | was improved, elegant and expensive houses were erected, | extending from avenue to avenue, ec a the premises in | question, all set back eight feet and all using that space for a court yard. Mr. Davis was the owner and builder of these houses; he was the former owner of the premises — in question: the premises in question. when ay were made to conform to the pian of all the other houses; | when the first deed thereafter is given, that is, after the | erection of the Lei mention is made of the court | yard, as being a part of the premises included in the con- veyance. The mortgage to the insurance company, and which was probably given before the execution of the | buildings, cont no reference to a court yard, ‘as then none existed; the master’s deed, of course, followed the description in the mortgage. When, how- ever, the insurance company convey, mention is made of this court yard. Special mention is made that the bounda- ries inelude this courtyard. It is, I apprehend, the same mode which would be adopted in any other conveyance of premises in St. Mark’s place. The property would be conveyed as bounded on the o1 north line of the street, and the conveyance would include the court yard in front; the owner may also own this court yard in fee, subject, however, to am urban servitude, subject to the bt of his neighbor to e loait Sete sala fx me other purpose. Recur in te the complaint an the affidavit on which the motion is made, to dissolve the injunction—the complaint alleges bi pe that there was an agreement that all the buildings should be net back eight feet; the affidavit says that the defendants do not believe that such agreement was made; my own opinion is, frem the facts and circumstances st forth in the complaint and affidavits, that such an agreement was made, and that it is binding on the defendants. It may have been by parole, but it was executed and carried into effect by the ereetion of the buildings eight feet back on the = aE a cd not ind case of Wolfe va. ne Sandford, ch, , where suc i ar sind wpexer ie war sougnt to be enforced. It P one thing to enforce +h an agreement when made by parole; it is another to attempt to violate it after it has been executed Intent ways enter largely into questions of dedication, and where the intent is manifested by an agreement ex- ecuted, the time becomes comparatively immaterial. In res] to all these houses and lots on St. Mark’s place, it seema to me that they must be considered, each with reapect to the others, as a servient tenement, to the tent of the space in front denominated the court y: It is & species of easement which each owner enjoys in ; | the Leet song of his neighbor. The motion to dissolve t! injnnction must be denied, with ten dollars costs, a1 ‘an order may be entered continuing the injunction until the hearing of the cause. 4 Superior Court—Part 2. Before Hon.

On the 28th of Janaary, 1862, these inex were destroyed by fire—the total loss being estimated at $96,583 98. Mr. Oatley was insured in six other different offices for a like sum, and - | being pressed for money compromised with some of them, ‘and accepted $4,000 on each policy. Finding, however, eat not effect any arrangement with the Com- ance Fire Company, and being still in wantof in July, 1862, the policy to the pre rs Siiste Eesoagh coo who now, rough his counsel, Mr. lather brings this action iy recover the smount. For the defendants, Mr K Sand ford denies that from fhe time of making and dolivering the until after thé fire, Patley was interested io the property insured to a greater AtMénny haa all jhe ineurance effected by him; and the defendants dody that the lone was $35 683 98; they deny that Oatley furnished proofs of bis lons and according to the requisi- mercial damage whieh he threw over Reardon; the cup hit him. and the | tions of the policy; and they allege that Mr Oatley ren- water spilled over him; it was clean water; Davis came and put his left arm over Rearden's shoulder and took the cup away in his other hand; there were some and some aft; they madea great laugh at it; dirty water was then thrown out upon Reardon, who was three feet from the galiey door; the next water that was thro en I belisve their action; that wax the water that dered to ther ‘fal ©, exaggerated. over estimated, aad fraudulent yunt of his lona by ‘he fire; and that the jeiniff is thereby dobarred of maintaining this action. ia allegation the plaintiff depies; ard after the close of the plaintiff's evidences, the case was adjourned from Fri day fast to Monday, when, on the spplication of the de fendant’aconnsel ft was farther adjourned to Tuesday. ‘The case, however, was withdrawn, on the defendants ; | enwring into « stipulation to pay the plaintiffs the sum of $6,000, with interest from 20th April, 1562—to be paid | the mo: it; saw Keardoa afterwards; from the eye | forthwith. and the costs to be paid as soon ay adjusted; | dows to ‘he peck seemed to he enalded: there wae flove | ond thet if thee payments he not made as «tipniated } OM it and it seemed rr be raiwd, Levuid aot ray Aether | the plaintiff may take judgment fue the smouut, with £ he War caelled, We weutal, aud gutuus vl my sighs, + Qosts, on the stipulation, duced this evening, with Cor Mac! fills the character with great ability: in fact, we know of no better general actor in the country, as every character he sustains reflects credit both on the management and himself. Malle. Ponisi appears as Lady Macbeth. No doubt there will be a full house. Burton's Tukatre.—he performances of Mr. and Mi Williams are atiracting large audiences to Burton’s theatre. They appear to-vight in three pieces. Tne tirst is called “Our Gal,”’ in which Mra, Williams sustains the character of Caroline Morton. The next feature will be “ Uncle Pat’s Cabin,’ in which Mr. and Mrs. Williams, Mr. Dyott, Mrs. Skerrett, and Mrs. Hughes, appear in the leading parts. This will be followed by the “Happy Man,” with Me Williams as the hero. NarionaL TuzaTR&.—Donetti’s celebrated troupe of act- ing monkeys, dogs and goats, will appear to-night in sert ous and comic pantomimes.

Lingard will sing ‘Ben Bolt,” after which the acting animals will appear in grand divertisemen t, WAILACK's THRATRE.—The distinguished comedian, Mr. Wallack, whose beautiful performances are every night witnessed with pleasure, and are rewarded with enthusi- astic cheers, appears to-night as Don Cesar de Bazan, a character which he portrays tothe very life, It is seldom such # good actor cau be seen, and the opportuaity now olfered should be embraced by the lovers of sterling his- trionic ability. The comedy of “Used Up” will close the amusements. Sr. Cuanies THEATRE.—Tho ontertainments at this favo- rite and prosperous little theatre afford the greatest amusement to the visiters; the selections are of a light character, and the acturs, geoerally speaking, are good. The first piece of this evening is called the “Four Eras in the Life of Man,” which will be succeeded by ‘Ladies Rights in 1953," and the “Trial by Battle,” and all will conslude with the “Wandering Miastrel.’” AmgnicaN MusEUM.—This establishment is doing a good business, the different saloons being crowded both in the afternoon and evening, The selection of dramatic pieses for this afternoom are “No Song no Supper,” and the “Limerick Boy,” and in the evening the comedy of the “Heirat Law.” The Happy Family, and other enter- taining features, can be seen by the visiters, Merrorouran Hatu.—Madsme Alboni will close her musical triumphs in America by a grand complimentary concert, given to Signor Arditi, as a testimony of her esteem for his professional talent, which will take piace | thir evening. Madame Alboni will give, for the first time in America, “ Di Tanti Palpiti;”? also, the cavatina from ‘-Norma,’’ and the grand rondo finalé from ‘‘Sonnambula.’”” Mad. Alboni, Mad. De Vries, Siguori Forti and Coletsi.with | a powerful chorus, will redder the grand finalé of “Ecaa- ni,” and Sangiovanni; Rovere and Coletti will give Ter- zetto. Independent of this attractive programme, viguor ‘Arditi has many claims upon the musical public. Let him have a bumper. Niwio’s Concert SaLoon.—The grand musical festival of Madame Aurelia Ferenczy, the distinguished Hanga- rian vocalist and piauist, comes off to-night. She will be assisted by the inimitable violinist, Paul Julien, Mr. H. C. Timm, and a select orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Kisfield. The pieces selected are excellent, and can- not fail to please the musical dilettante. Mad. Ferenczy will display her retined execution in fantasia by Men- delssoho aud Prudent; also in arias by Rossini and Meyerbeer; and Paul Julien will give a concerto for violin, as also the fantasia, Ma Celive, which in themselves will be worth the price of admission. Franconr’s Hirropromé.—The beautiful chariot raees, stag hunts, ceenes of the turf, aerial equilibriums, pony | tases, &c., are still attracting hundreds every afternoon | and evening. The performauces of to-day will commence with the grand tournament, which is produced in mag- nificent style. The procession comprises nearly two hun- dred horses, with their riders. This will be followed by the performances of the trained elephant, racing eamels and elephants, steeple chases, &c.

Medical aid was procured and remedies applied, Dut to no avail, as the little sufferer lingered until Tues: day last. and expired. A verdict was rendered as fol- lows :—That deceased came to his di by inflammation of the brain, caused by burns accidentally received by the upsetting of a burning fluid lamp. Acewentatly Row Over anp Kittsp.—Coroner Wil- helm yexterday held an inquest on the body of a gicl aged eight years, named Herriet Dreyfus, at the residence of her parents, No. 100 West Thirteenth street, who came to her death by accidentally run over by a horse and wagon driven by E.

A verdict was rendered ef accidental death. Founp iv THs WATER Dxap.—The doad body of Wil- liam Heavey, was found yesterday evening, floating in the East river, at the foot of Roosevelt street. The deceased had been missing for two weeks past. He had recently arrived from California, and was supposed to have had considerable money about his person. His sudden disap- pearance led bis friends to believe that he had been mur- dered and robbed; $50 had been offered by his friends for the recovery of the body. The deceased resided with his friends, at No. 84 James stre Coroner Hilton will hold an inqnest om the body this sR FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. MONEY MARKET. Wronespay, May 25-6 P. M. ‘There was a little more activity in the stock market to-day, but we see no signs of any improvement, more than of a temporary character. Nicaragua went up per cent; Florence and Keyport 34; New Jersey Zinc %; Parker Vein 34; Crystal Palace 4; Hudson Railroad %. At the second board there was a little more buoyancy, and larger transactions than usual at the irregular beard. Parker Vein went up 3 per cent; Florence and Keyport ; Harlem ';; Erie Railroad 14. There was no change in Nicaragua. A small lot of Potomac Copper sold at three per cent, on time, Morris Canal fell off per cent. Government and State stocks, railroad bonds, and bank stocks, are operated in daily to about the same extent, at about the same prices, There is no particular demand for any of the solid securities, and busi- ness in them is, therefore, limited. The trifling advance noticed in some of the fancies to-day, will probably be lost to-morrow, and it is possible a still greater decline be realized. It is a matter of some surprise to us how the market is so well sustained. Where considerably below where they started: When s new mining stock comes out, all those originally interested commence its inflation, for the purpose of attracting out- siders and distributing the shares. Im most ef the new projects the plan pursued has been exceedingly productive to those who were fortunate enough to get hold of shares at the first price. The supply of new companies, has, however, been too great for the demand, and there are strong indications of lull in the excitement, which hag been carried to such an extent. A large amount of money has been lost by thoe who purchased mining stocka, generally at high prices, and the prejudices exist- ing in the minds of many are strong enough to deter them from touching anything of the kind again. We have been manufacturing all kinds of stocks during the past two or three years, and the day of reckoning is not far distant. The anxiety of holders to realize somothing is daily becoming greater, and it is our impression that it will, one of these days, assume a shape of so much im- portance as to demand attention from the boards of di- rectors. There are at this moment more than a dozen gold, copper, lead, coal, and other mining companies about springing into existence, full feathered; and we have no doubt they will all pass through the usual phases, and finally quietly settle down, and, perhaps, be forgotten. Among the new lead mining projects, is one with » very attractive, high sounding name, which may take as high stand from the start, bat how long it will keep it, depends upon circumstances. We allude to the Poton Lead Company, with a large capital, issued, or to be issued in shares, at the usual par value of ten dol- lars each. The Phoenix Gold Company and the Mineral Gold Company are very promising companies. What they will perform is a matter for future consideration. ‘There are a good many promising companies on the mar- ket, and that is all at present known about them. We annex a list, classifying the numerous mining companies on the books of the new mining board, with the*latest quotations for exch:— Quorations.roR MivIxG Stocks, Coal Companizs.

Rhode Island has at present no less thaa seventy-one banking institutions, with an aggregate capital of four- teen millions of dollars. Of these, twenty-six are lo. ated in Providence, with s eapital of $10,419,000, or an average of abont $400,000 each. Not satisfied with these, seven new banks have been incorporated at the late session of the Legislature, viz :—The Continental Bank, What-Cheer Bank, People’s Bank, Atlantic Bank, Peacedale Bank, Butehers’ and Drovers’ Bank, and the Grocers’ and Producers’ Bank, The Auditor of the State of Indiana gives the annexed construction to the General or Free Banking Law of that State :-— “No bank can be organized with a less capital than fifty thousand dollars. A bank commencing business will be required to deposit with the Auditor at least fifty ee dollars, previous to receiving any notes for cir- culation. “The association may appoint such officers and agents as their business may require; but the name of a cashier must be attached to all bills and noces intended to circu- late as = Ps ae rs are not required to Le citizens of the ate. “The stocks deposited with the Auditor must be regu- larly transferred, and issued to ‘the Auditor of State of the State of Indiana, in trust for the Bank of ——.’ “The Indiana stocks, chargeable upon the Canal are not receivable. “Where a bank inereases its capital, it will be required to make certificate and record of same, in like manner as in its original organization.”’ The constitution of Indiana, in relation to the debt of the State, provides that :— “The State shall not be a stockholder in any bank, after the expiration of the present bank cherter; nor shall the credit of the State ever be given or loaned, in aid of any son, association or Lod sehen nor shall the State eresfter become # stockholder in any corporation or as- *Eecapt, with the profoundh a Except wi e profouns orant or prejudic Indias free beak notes ‘must be eousiaered 6 tale out. rency. The London Mining Journal, of the 7th inst., gives the following information relative to the movements in geld mining stocks:— With one or two exceptions there has boen no special demand in the market for gold mining sharoa during the week; but, aluhough business has been generally stag- nant, prices may be pronounced fairly Lat sr exceptions above referred to are the Agua Fria and the Great Nugget Vein, both of which have realized advanced prices. h of these stocks, however, has since expe- rienced a reaction. On the whole, the Californian des- criptions are most generally supported. Advices from the yarious com psnies, col and Californian, are, of course, anxiously awaited; and, meanwhile, there is no disposition to deal extensively. On by comeng hse! little business was done On Tuesday, ea Agus ‘ia opened well, they receded considerably. Great Nugget Vein shares had a marked advance. Colonial Gold, Nouveau Monde, Port Philip, Quartz Rock and West Mariposa, were steady, and Australian Freehold somewhat better. On Wednerday there was but little to notice, except that Monarch shares were in demand, having been done at r. On Thursday the characteristic of market was [oanimation; end it may be said to have closed last night witbout any reacting tondeney. The arrivalstrom Australia this week of gold have been, the Admiral, 22,000 oas.; the Hero, 13,934 ozs.; and the Kate, with 28,977 ozs., valued at about £250,000. The Statesman, likewise, all the worthless fagcy stocks find s resting place is more then we understand. Take the entire list and select the best fancy in the lot, and the most sanguine speculator for @ 1ise cannot figure up its value to correspond with the current market price. The news from Europe is not calculated to give holders of stock much confidence. Money was in demand in London at three per cent, and consols had experienced a decline. In the genersl mar- kets there had been no change, but in financial affairs the prospect was by no means favorable. The drain of bul lion from the Bank of England continued unabated, and the amovnt on band had become reduced toa smalier sum than bad been known for many months. This, in the face of the large receipts from Australia, had created ‘8 good desl of apprehension in financial circles, and the effect was likely to be much greater than had yet ap- peared. The steamship Georgia, at this port, brought $2,071,670 in gold dust from California, aud the steamship Cambria, from Boston for Liverpool, carried out $279,000 in gold ingots. The transactions at the Mining jfoard to-day, were as follows :— 106 shares Liangotlen Coal 100 do, Hiwassie jo. 10 do. ‘The receipts at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of this port today, amounted to $146,191 61; payments, $23,881 41—balance, $7,051,425 32 Within the past twelve moaths more than fifty new min- ing companies have been projected and put upom this warket, Biany of (hom wore rapidly eun up to enormous rloea, most of which have iuce fallen back t@ point has brought 10,339 ozs. from Geelong, valued at £42,000; the other shipments she has on board up to the present time had not been published. The quotation of gold in Melbourne was £8 126, 6d. per os. In Jamaica, there ap- peared to be no reliance in the discoveries of gold there, though several companies were in course of formation for the purpose of developing the copper lodes known to exist in the island. The transactions on the stock ex- change will be found in the usual . The non offi- cial quotations are :—New South Wales gold, 3 to 4 per share; Australian Gold Mining and Steaming, to ¥ prem.; Brucutu Gold, par: Feather River Land and Gold; ir to 4 prem.; Britannia brit 4 f % per share; lonarch, par to % prem; L’higie d'Or, % dis. to 4 Prem; Garnett ana Moseley, 1 4.0 1% prem.; Australian utoal, 3 dis, to par: Australian Consola, 1{ dis to par; Chartered Australian Land and Mining Company. % to % per share; Albion Gold, 34 dis. to 34 prem.; Peel River, 5% to 4% prem.; Adelaide Land and Gold, M4 to % a Lewis Hill Range, % to % dis.; Melbourne Gold, % to per share; Golden Mountain, 34 to %% per share; British and Colonial Smelting Reduction Company, % to prem. ; Chalanches Silver, par to 3 prem. The Galena Jeffersonian says :—"' The deposits of zinc ore—the sciliate and sulphuret of zinc—which are #0 sbundant in the adjoining State of Wisconsin, and within ap easy and convenient distanes of Galena, will undoubt- edly become, as soon as the numerous railroads projected in this quarter are completed, a source of great weal:h to the country. Thousands and thousands of tons of ore, which in England are highly valued, are now lying on the surfase of the ground in many portions of the mines, » hindrance to the miner and a pest to the owner of the soil. As scon as this ore and the coal of the great Mlinols coal felds are brought together, the busi- ness of the reduction of the former toa valuable min- eral—valuable in any market—will commence. For more reasons than one, this reault is much to be desired.
