New York, June 10.—A dispatch to tin* Tribune from Loudon suys: The llrilisii government has hnd unusual trouble in lilting lite vacancy nflhe vlceroyalty of Canada, Numerous candidates for succession have been mentioned, hut no appointments have been mnde, The guud relations now existing between Great Britain unil America make it Important Unit the new governor-general of Canada should he an official of unique reputation, so as to Impress ihe whole English-speaking nice in America, The nppninlnient has not been officially announced, but It is generally believed at the war ulliee Ibnl Lord Wolseley is the man who has been selected fur Ibis ini- purl nnl pusl. Nothing has yet appeared in print ulioiit It, bul II tuny bu stated in llle utmost confidence thnt overtures have been Hindi'to biin. The ctown is not in the habit, of offering appointments to high places until the willingness of those proposed for preferment to accept the honors is ascertained, There is adequate reason tn believe lhat Lord Wolseley has been approached and uskeil wbelher be will accept the post uf Governor-General of Canada, mid ilmi he Is now considering the cxpedi- ney of accepting it. Lord Wolseley nnw occupies the of- Ilea uf eouiiniiiiilei-ln-i'liief iif the army, und is I In* inan besl lilted byi'Xiieiience and military capacity for retaining It. lie would nlsu be ll eniuliilnle for gnvernnr*gonernl uf Canada of exceptional prestige und authority, and Mould be welcomed by hnlh lhe Do- mini..!! nud ilu* United Slnles us a il lin nt sui'iessiir lo a lung line of Illustrious viceroys, His nppolnl inenl ns Governor-General would command lhe attention of Canada and America and be of great utility in promoting thegood relation! on each side nf the border, At the snine time it would create a vacancy in tin' office (nf commander-in-chief, which ihi' friends of Lord Roberts would like io hnvc their favorite fill, Lord Wolseley is at once a soldier uml u diplomatist, equal lo any work wliieli he mny be culled upon In perform ; hut Lord Roberts is a soldier only, and i very ambitions one, Lord Wolseley is nnw III Ilis 00th yeur.

The following letter from San Diego, Cal„ was published In a recent issue of the New York Engineering uud Mining Journals- Permit ine to describe a portable assaying kit in whicli I lake n great deal of comfort nnd which mny lie of service to others. A painter's gasuline torch supplies the required bent, The furnace is a circular iron cnn, lined with a lire-clay—asbestos—charcoal mixture, capable nf containing four small crucibles. Tiie charge Jills the crucibles, hut careful watching prevents boiling over. Recesses for a small muffle are provided|lti thefurnace. After the melts are poured the inutile is placed in the furnace and heats very quickly, After 'parting, the gold is taken up in a boracic acid bead, in which it melts together Into a practically perfect sphere. Using a microscope with cross-hairs and sliding stage, the diameter of the prills of gold is obtained, and frnni that the weight is calculated, The accuracy depends upnu the power of tbe microscope, On ores containing values up to $15 I tl leet, differences nf 10 cents. As the value nf the ore increases, the accuracy decreases. Such an arrangement of apparatus cnn lie very light nnd be packed in a very small case. The material is not nearly so expensive as the smallest outtit ou the market. The idea was obtained frum Mitchell "On Assaying. International Mining Congress. A press despatch from Salt Lake City. Utah, says '.—Ncnrly a thousand delegates have lieen appointed to utlend the International Mining Congress which meets in Ihis city on July 8th, 7th, 8t.lt and llth, This does not include the delegations at large front Colorado, Wyoming, California and seven other states which have indicated their intention of being represented but have not yet announced their appointments. The delegates, of whose appointment official notice has been receivd, come from 21 different states nnd 188 cities. Most of Ihem nre directly interested in some branch of mining and all of llieni are personally concerned lu the objects of the congress. Besides these there will be a strong attendance fioin Canada, official delegates from the government of Mexico and consular or commercial representatives frum a number of nther foreign governments which have been invited through the state department, The objects nf the congress nre purely practical in eharacler. Political subjects and discussions are out of order in its sessions. It is intended to promote the interests of all engaged in mining pursuits, whether as investors, managers or laborers, In aid of this purpose, une nf its principal alms is to secure the establishment of n national department of mines with a cabinet officer at its head. It will discuss the desirability of revising and codifying the mineral land laws; of opening the Spanish land grunts to prospectors and ininers; it will discuss the desirability of mutual bonding privileges for mine shipments and supplies belween Canadian and American points; it will discuss problems of mine management, ore treatment methods, relation of railroads to mineral development and a number of nther subjects of broad general interest to miners. Every branch of the industry will be repe- sented among the delegates and every legion of the country, sn the program will luke the widest range possible within practical limits, Spokane Falls ...& Northern, Nelson & Fort Sheppard, - - AND -- Red Mountain Railways.
