The quart-) having hoen ground, and the gold thus freed from the matrix, the precious metal is separated, tlie lighter materials, such as silica, and even iron or zinc, are Hunted away by water pressure from below, while the ."���id, ny reason of its greater weight, falls into the hath of mercury, there to be amalgamated, Wherever gold is associated with sulphur or other deleterious mutter, this device of water sortitij- by specific gravity operates taost effectually. It follows, then, that if the ore can ho ground sufficiently line, the sulphur, antimony nnd other sickening elements will be separated from the gold, however small the particles of gold may be, and the atoms of gold thus released from their envelopes or adherent, substances, lire caught in the hath of mercury. This bath is presented in a clean, substantial and constant state, nut broken up into minute particles nor exposed in any degree to the injurious effects of sul- ���(burets or other source.* of contamination contained in the water. Herein is a further secret of the great sii'ieri- ority of the Crawford Mill over stamps or other mills that grind the ore and mercury together. The ingenious arrangement by which water is introduced into the mill under pressure, and fl.iws evenly iu an upward direction oertlie surface of the mercury, pie- vents particles of crushed on, which have a less specific gravity than gold, from reaching the mercury. What is not gold is forced upward liy the pressure of the ascending column of water, until having been crushed infinitely fine by the balls, it floats off with the water, leaving behind the weighty particles of gold. Whilst the water enters the mill with a considerable upward pressure, the ilirectiou of this ���pressure' is reverse,! by the lateral sweep of the balls, and is also exhausted by expansion in the wide dome of the mill; so that the very tine particles of gold are prevented from being ejected with the tailings, The results ��� litis far attained by the use of this mill in the field, illustrate iu superiority for more conclusively than anv descriptive statement of its parts. IXSrAKUBB ol' SUCl'KSS, A large number of experiments were mu.le iu England, in It'll, when mure than forty different ores from all parts of the world were treated by the Craw- Jurn Mill. I'ne Australian ore from the Raveaiswoud mine, which fails to yield.more than *.��.'> per cent, of its gold In au ordinary stump mill, yielded upward of !H) per cent, to the Crawford Kill, and this without roasting or chemical treatment of any kind. Special reference is made tu the Ra- venewood ore becaused it has not only defied even* mechanical process Hitherto, but it ia so loaded with heavy metallic components that even to treat it chemically is enormously costly. Xa analysis of this ore is instructive: Total (ill per cent. This is the case of u rich but highly metalized ore; let us, however, go to the other extreme and take llie case of another Australian ore -the ore of Mount Morgan Mine. The gol I iu this niiiii'itppenrsto have been ejo.tted from the interior of the earth iu the form of siuiim. It is distributed in the tiniest invisible particles, throughout a matrix of soft chalk or pumice,- bin for tne extreme minuteness of the golii particles, this is au ore which, being absolutely " free milling," would yield its gold to i, stamp mill more readily thull almost any other. As it is, however, a stamp mill will not touch it, and wus being treated in bulk by ehlori- iiution. The first test, with the Crawford mill gave eighty-two and one-half per cent | the second, under a slighter pressure of water, ninety-two and one half per cent of gold saved. These two instances, viz. : - the Raveuswood ores uud the Mount Morgan ores, the one of extraordinary re- frnctoriuess,uiid the other soft us clnilli represent the opposite pel s of the var iotts characters of ore. With both tin Crawford null has proved n uiimpleti success. In the various tests which have been made ou American ores from all parts of this continent, precise-!} similar results have been achieved. FR0.1I OTTAWA. Cn.Indian tlolil Coin. The Ciiniuliiiii Trade Review comments on the fact tliut Canada has as gold coin of her own the gold coins ol Great Britiiiu and the United States, Iieing at pur value for tlie littler und $4.8 i'i to the pound for the former. It is remarked that ours is a gold currency ind that silver is merely a subsidiary metal, being legal tender only to the extent of ten dollars, while copper i> not a legal tender for more than u dollar. It is observed that tho foreign trade of Canada lining large, she bus onsidernlile interest iu ull mutters relating to foreign exchange, ami whenever her credit abroad does not exceed her maturing labilities, she has to pay ��� he difference by the exportation of gold, which is the great medium of a foreign exchange. The luck uf gold euinage of her own bus led uud still leads to a great deal of friction between the public and tho government from j ���vhicli this gold is secured for export.

In uis letter to Lloyd Tevis, ol San Frau- lisco, president of the North American Commercial Co., Secretary Carlisle says : ''Theaction of my predecessors in making reductions in the rental uud bonus which your company agreed to pay to the United States under its contract for the exclusive privilege of taking fur seals in A.aska wits without authority of law." Tlie original contract, made in 1880, fixed the annual rental and specified the catch in any 1 your, said catch to be reduce I at any time in the discretion of the Secretary j if tho Treasury. Ii nddition to the rental tho Government wus to receive $l>,li0 per skin for each seal taken, besides oihei provisions as to the care of the natives. Acting on an opinion rendered by Attorney-General Miller, Secretary Charles Foster reduced the catch of seals from thu original contract and reduced the rent in proportion. This action of Secretary Foster's is now declared to have been illegal, hence the demand made, which, it, is understood, will lie followed by legal proceedings iu case the demand is not complied with.
