Retarsing to the Marquette iron center, we are able to count 20 difierut mines, within a radius of eight miles around Ishpeming, which city has been built within a short time. Niue years ago, where there are now regularly laid out streets, and many fine buildings there was nothing but a marsh. As one mine after another has been devel oped, |>opulatiou has been drawn liiih- or. Many of the principal business men are from the New England States. The miners, who comprise the bulk of the population,ure mainly from Sweden and other European countries, and make excellent citizens. They support schools and churches, and are generally free from the vices which prevail in some mining regions. The mines nearest to Ishpeming are the New York, Lake Superior, Bui mini, and the Cleveland. The New York mine is better known through the coun try as the Tilden mine, Mr. Sam’l J. Tilden being now almost the sole owu- er. There is an interesting story c- •linec- ted with the opening of this mine. Nearly twenty years ago, a Mr. A. R. Harlow whs the head clerk for the ad joining Cleveland mini.

Wetmore as sumed the management of the mine, Mr. Tilden furui hitig tliu funds. Dif ferences arose between them, were car ried into the Courts, and are still un - adjusted. We ascended the ladders to the mine and groped about the dark passages, under the guide of a miner, who seem ed to have a morbid relish for designa ting spots wltere various workmen hud been killed at different times “Here,” said he, as we entered one chamber about twenty feet high, “a man was killed the other day by a piece of rock falling from the ceiling and striking him on the head.” On our inquiiiug if there was danger of any other pi« ces dropping, he replied . “Oh, yes, tin y liable to drop at any tinn ; we ail ha\’e to take our clmnoes.” After this cheer ful announcement, we did not tarry very long in that quarter But there was a sad story in some poor fellow’s death connected with every division of the mine we enter, i lmve \isited mines in Pennsylvania and elsewhere but there was a feeling of insecurity and danger here which I hud not before experienced. Still there is a fascination clout the life of the miners, and they rarely exchange it for other avocations. As we entered one train-way,we couid hear trie sounds of the miners’ blows far in the bowels of the earth. Follow ing the founds, we crawled through a v*ry narrow pussuge fora long distance and eiueiged into an opening where the miners were at work upon a new vein of ore, and preparing blasts. Wa ter was trickling down the sides of the p&bsiigi, the air was cold and damp,the lights feebly flickered, the half dozen -workmen hegrimtued and bronzed wiih due, presented an Hiumtural appear ance, and we were very glud to retrace our steps and ascend to the surface of the earth The large chain ben of the mine from which the ore has already been ta »en, ate divided by strong pil lars of ore, which have been left to support the over-hanging walls. The veins extending eastward have been pretty well worked down to the line of tke Cleveland mine. There is belt red, however, tu be an abundance of ore extending westward under the surface on which the buildings conneced with the mines now satml. Ten thousand tuns oi ore was taken out of the mine during the first year it was opened (1864). and the aggregate product up to the present time has been nearly a million of tons.—From American Ag riculturist for March.
