The property has been used for fifty years past as an iron property, and has been worked at various points, but chiefly - at the site of the celebrated Yellow Rklge Ore Bank, which has always yielded an ore noted for its richness In metallic iron, and Its softness and toughness. . This vein of ore, which extends for two miles in length, has been worked to the depth of 147 feet, showing at that depth a vein of ore about 40 feet wide, and analyz ing as high as 66per. cent of metallic Iron. This vein has not been, worked for twenty years, but the - facts set forth can- be fully shown.

The Chicago IntervOcean is . a Re publican paper of the straightout order, and politically speaking, has but few kind words ? to say ;of the South, but it recognizes the facf that there is a future before theSoiith." It notes the fact that there is a decided movement of people in theNorthand Northwest towards the South, as pre senting advantages ? for settlement and enterprise that the frontier States and Territories do not - present. It notes that while there has been much depression in business in the North and West,' ahcr while many Jiiaijfaq tunrig establishments were compelled to close their doors; there was no de-j-cline of dividends in Southero mant factories, but, on the contxary, tiej improved and increased, and it pre dicts that before many years the tide of foreign immigration, will flow Southward, and that in the develop ment of the resources of this section the fortunes of the next half century will be made. In conclusion it says I "There is a new South which hears the slogan and .sees the host coming. It will send a powerful delegation of the South's new and enterprising men to Chicago to engineer the protection ist cause in the interest of pioneer! industries and new. enterprise. The thrill of a new forward movement is animating the very core and heart of the South. About a hundred millions of new capital has gone into the South since the 1st of January. : What if the coming direction to the young and enterprising men of the North snould come to be. 'Go South, young man J go South."' , . There seems to be some speculation and some lively discussion upon the tariff plank which is to be inserted in the Democratic platform at Chicago.! Mr. Hewitt, of New; York, ; is there! with a compromise plank; Frank: Hurd and ; Mr. Watterson ; are there,! and doubtless they have a plank, and the probabilities are that there are al number of other gentlemen there with planks of their own. ' This tariff plank matter is one that will require cool judgment and no small amount! of ! sagacity. It must be" one which,) while it placeerthe party in a proper! light before theople, will not array! any umiecessary antagonisms, nor" invite the hostility of - any : class of people or class of industries, if we may : so speak. In this it will be necessary for those who desire the success of the party in-the coming election to surrender some of their individual preferences for the good of the party T to secure .harmony.1 without which' we enter; a hopeless fightf r ."'" " r -; - . . 1 " : i- j "Tammany wili support any man who is, nominated at Chicago," sas Register Eeilly, of New York, a Tam-J many leader. "In my opinion any reasonably good man can carry New! York on a Democratic ticket by?a very handsome majority. I am for harmony and for5 peace, and favor aqj undivided Democratic phalanx bothi at Chicago a.nd at the polls in Novem-j ber. You need not fear any defection among the Tammany people. We will stick to the nominee." Ci . I HUWERSyiLLE SCHOOL. THE COMMENCE HJSIvT OF 18844 ; ... ' s h.
