by a shaft, and sent down to the “ dressing house ” by a
track.
On the back or top of the vein near the surface is the
gossan.
Beneath is the ore, embedded in the slate rock, and
generally of a rich gold color. Grey ore, hematite, and
pyritous copper are also found in considerable quantities.
There are no furnaces for smelting, but the ore is transported
to the railway station at Bradford, a distance of about twelve
miles, and thence conveyed to Boston, Bergen and Baltimore,
where it is highly prized for its superior quality.
The Union Copper Mining Company has also commenced
operating on the same vein at a little distance to the west¬
ward.
It has been but a few weeks in operation, but the re¬
sults appear flattering. The miners themselves are among
the holders of the stock.
They have made their way to the
ore
by openning a large trench or canal in the ground on the
the side of the mountain, and extending it to the metalliferous
deposit, striking it at right angles. About three hundred
tons of ore have already been removed ; this mode of exca¬

geological formations in which the richest copper
found are the groups of metamorphic and igneous

though it were their proper fruit. -The great Appalachian

Attention was first drawn to this locality by the disovery
of long parallel lines of trenches which had been excavated
at some former period of unknown antiquity.
Investigation
showed that the mines had been wrought for a long time by
some ancient people, of whom no tradition now exists. Their
excavations often penetrated to a depth of twenty feet.
The
tools of the miners, generally hammers made of trap rock,
were found in large quantities.
So long a time has elapsed
since these veteran miners abandoned^- their vocation, that
large trees grew from the rubbish that had since accumulated
in the pits that they had forsaken.
One of these, a hemlock,
standing beside a stump^f older growth, was cut down some
years since, and showed no less than three hundred and fifty
rings of annual growth. Under its roots, several feet beneath,
supported on skids of timber at an elevation of five feet, was
a mass of
copper of over six tons weight, which had been
separated from its rocky bed, and cleaned by fire from the
vein-stone adhering to it, preparatory to cutting it up for removal.

THE CHRONICLE.
correspondent of the Journal de Geneve, writing from Alex¬
andria, with regard to the Cholera in Egypt, on the 19th of July,
A
says:
You ask me for news of the cholera.
It is getting on
pretty
well, though somewhat diminished by its excesses. For more than
month the epidemic has ravaged Alexandria in a terrible and uuusual manner, and a thorough panic has seized upon the population.
As early as the 14th of June, the Viceroy, in his position as Chief
of the State, set the example of flight, by suddenly quitting Alex¬
andria aud Egypt with his harem, in a vessel hastily engaged, and
which set out for the open sea without any more settled purpose
than that of flight. Since then he has been to the island of Chio,
and afterwards to Constantinople.
This precipitate departure
a
spread terror among the population of Alexandria. All the more
important persons at once imitated the Viceroy, they engaged ves¬
sels for themselves and their families. The less wealthy rushed to
the steamers, which left in all directions ; the others embarked upon
numberless sailing-ships. Every one ran away—no matter how, no
matter where. The employes and the artisans sold their watches,
their clothes, to pay their passage ; the dealers nailed up the doors
of their shops with planks, and abandoned their interests and their

estimated at 60.000. It was no longer a flight, it was a panic of
terror.
Doctors have deserted their posts ; priests have abandoned
the church, leaving to the dead the task of making their way to the
other world without their assistance. In a word the clearing out
has been complete, and there is no instance of a similar display of
cowardice. On account of the closed, nailed up, and abandoned
shops, the following circular has been issued by the sanitary super¬
intendent to the various consulates: “Among the large number of!
persons of all classes and professions who have for some time aban¬
doned this country, there are many bacals (dealers in provisions of
all kinds). In the hurry of their departure several have contented
themselves with securely closing their shops, leaving behind their
stock, the greater part of which is of a nature to be liable to
gpeedy decomposition. In consequence of this, the shogs contain¬
ing the said stores, which, it must be supposed, are now decomposed,
disseminate a stench which is very disagreeable to the neighbors
and very injurious to the public health. Ignorant of the nationality
of these dealers, I beg of you, in the interest of the public health,
to authorize the police to open, in case of necessity, the shops which
occasion the most complaint from the neighbors, and -especially
those from which the most stench issues, so that steps may be taken
to remove the causes of this nuisance.'’

Seven Months.—We take from
of Commerce its summary of the trade of this port the
past seven months. The imports for July show an increase
npon
any former month of this year, but are not
equal to the total for
the corresponding month of last
year. Owing to the falling off in
the market price ot
gold and the demand for merchandise, a much
larger portion of the goods have been entered directly for consump¬
tion, aud the stock in bond has been diminished. The

The figures given above represent the foreign
gold values, and do not include freight, duty, or other charges.
The revenue from customs in July shows a very great increase,
and this has misled many persons in regard to the total
imports.
Seeing the large sums received daily at the Custom House, and com¬
paring them with the very moderate receipts in July of last year,
the inference was natural that the goods were arriving much more
rapidly than they did in July, 1864. It will be found upon examin¬
ation that the total imports, as we have shown, are less, and the dif¬
ference in the receipts tor customs is accounted for by the different
disposition made ot the goods. In J uly of last year over twenty-two
millions were landed here, of which only ten millions were thrown
on the market. Last month less than nineteen millions were
landed,
and over nineteen millions were marketed, the remainder being taken

Len¬
ders, however, have upon the whole shown a temperate dis¬
cretion, from a consciousness that, in the nervous condition
?>pf affairs, they might by an unwise caution precipitate an
rjtinneeessary panic and many failures. At the close of the
week there are symptoms of a steady recovery of confidence,
and little apprehension exists of a general catastrophe grow¬
ing out of the excitement. Lenders continue to show" a
large discrimination; to firms of good standing money is
freely offered at 7 per cent, while others find it difficult to bor

The Fourth National Bank holds

amount.
Several private banking firms also hold them to a
considerable extent, including Dabney, Morgan & Co., to the
amount
of $100,000.

employed their surplus funds through Ketchum, Son &
Co., will lose largely by the failure of that firm* The amount
owing to these institutions is not known, but is estimated at

Discounting has been to a considerable extent, suspended
during the excitement; but as the occurrences only indirectly
affect mercantile business, it cannot be said that rates of dis¬
count have been influenced.

securities. They have, indeed, been indirectly benefitted by
the disposition to exchange less stable securities for them.
The decline of quotations for 5-20’s at London, however, has
partially depressed the market. The foreign orders for old
5-20’s have been lighter than of late ; but sufficient, with the
present limited supply, to keep the price steady. Sixes ot
1881 have been sold freely to be exchanged for other securi¬
ties, which, at late current rates, were cheaper, and the result
has been a decline to 106 a 1061. The panicky condition ot
the market has forced out an unusual supply of the first and
second series of 7-30’s held as collaterals, producing at one
time a decline in the second series to 98^.

discovery of the forgery of about
$1,500,000 of gold checks, and the failure of one of the larg¬
est gold speculating firms on ’Change, have had but a very
slight effect upon the gold premium. On Monday afternoon,
after the discovery of Ketchum’s operations, six to eight mil¬
lions of gold were thrown upon the market, chiefly in connec¬
tion with the firm of Ketchum, Son & Co.
The large sales,
however, produced a merely nominal decline. On Tuesday
the price fell to 140|, and has since steadily recovered to
143|, at which it closes to-day. The lightness of the current
exports, as compared with the imports, and the steady ad¬
vance in foreign, exchange to near the point at which it will
pay to ship specie, have imparted strength to the market.
At the same time the current purchases for customs axe
very large, while there is reason for believing that, from pru¬

unsettled state ; the regular business in all lead¬
ing staples is very moderate ; but there is much speculative feeling,
which sustains and advances prices, and gives an air of spirit to the
markets. The slight but steady advance in gold price Tuesday
last, has seemed to favor speculations for a rise, but probably the
greatest strength is derived from the fact that current prices are
much below those to which people have been accustomed.
This is
true of cotton and breadstuff's, where the speculative con¬

sale of 2.500 barrels crude whale at $1 50, the result of the
ope¬
rations of the pirate Shenandoah.
Petroleum has shown
great
inactivity in the absence of foreign orders, and prices are lower.
The receipts are far behind last
year. Some other articles of do¬
mestic produce, such as
Whisky, Tallow, Building Materials, &c.,
have been active at full
prices.
Much of the speculation in Cotton and Breadstuff. to which we
have adverted, is on Provincial account; stimulated, do
doubt, by
the redundant currency.
The speculation in Breadstuff is almost
entirely on Western account; in Cotton, it is more general; prob¬
ably at 40 cents for Middlings, our whole stock of Cotton would
pass into hands of speculative holders, with no thought of danger
to
a
favorable issue.

The oat crop is very large, and the hay crop in the West is much
injured by the wet weather, but is still abundant.
I'iie Wheat Crops in the Northwest.—A perfectly reliable
authority at Milwaukie, writes, under date of August 12 :
“In regard to our crop of spring wheat in the northwest, includ¬
ing Minnesota, Wisconsin, Northern Iowa and Illinois, the ‘ wet
weather,’ and 4 damaged crop ’ despatches which have gone forth
lately from Chicago are not at all reliable. Up to the present
writing the crop of-the Northwest is uninjured, and with a week or
ten days more of good harvest weather, this country will turn out
the largest crop of choice wheat that it has ever produced. Not so
heavy, perhaps, to the acre, take it all through, as in 1860, but
vastly more breadth of soil has been sown. In Minnesota the yield
per acre will quite equal 1860. Nothing was ever seen like it in
that section, The crop of Wisconsin and Iowa is more than half
harvested. In Minnesota the farmers will be through harvest by
the 20th with good weather.
The weather is now splendid, and
harvesting going on finely, so that with a week or ten days more of
good weather we shall have a great crop of choice quality of spring
wheat, and up to this time the crop is not damaged by rain or
water.
The Rye crop is large and of fine quality. Barley fair—

speculative feeling, which we have heretofore noticed, has

A considerable portion of the arrivals continue to go into the store
on speculative account, and although the China’s mails brought

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
•
•
There has been
less excitement in the
dry goods market
with a very unsettled and uncertain
feeling
at its close.
TJie market has felt the
flurry in Wall Street to some
extent, while the eccentric ideas of two or
three leading houses has
eaused some little
curiosity, if not anxiety, to know what would come
next.
There has been a still further
concession in prices,
many lead¬
ing styles being 1 a 2 cents lower than last
week, and the result is
a
greater activity and the promise of a brisk

good demand and firm, notwithstand¬
ing the largely increased amount of importations as compared with
last year.
Low price dress goods are much called for, and are scarce.
A number of auction sales of foreign goods have taken
place dur¬
ing the week. Among them an assortment of Saxony woven dress
goods, British dress goods, French Mouslin Delaines, Me¬
rinos, Silks, Bombazines, &c., &c., for which good prices were ob¬
tained, and the active competition showed that the market is still
under stocked even with foreign goods.
The importations for the past four weeks compared with the same
time in 1864, show a vastly increased supply, the
present season.
