IJTI'M!, THE UTATH GKOIaIUMT. From the Atlanta Heralil.) Upjiortrr Will you j,rive iiu-afion ornl Ideii of the eonipnrutlvo vnliu' of the ilifTcront miuernls of thi> State us far us naocrtuined? Dr. Jj. I think iron i l>v far ill most viiluable mineral in the State. There is an abundance of it and the ore Una good In some planes as cun bo found anywhere, it is all of an ex cellent quality. Next to iron, are copper and gold; which will bo the more valuable of these two is an un deeidod question, as yet. I have here a spoeimen of copper ore which is very rich, that came from the mines of Mr. \V. A. Hoskins, near Villa liica. And, by (lie way. it will be of interest, to your readers to know that he will in a few weeks have Tire DIAMOND Dm LI. in use now at Ids mine. This drill cuts by means of a diamond and will make progress through the hardest kind of rock at the rate of twenty feet a day, snooping up specimens of the rock as il works. Mr. Hoskins by meansof this drill, which costs 54,500, can accomplish in six days what it took him six months, at a cost of f'S,- 000, to do. Ordinarily it will go as deep as need bo in four or live days, us it is not necessary generally to go deeper than one hundred feet after this ore. This drill will lie of im mense beuelit to all the miners in that section, as Air. It. can rent, it at a small cost, comparatively, to parties who are unable to purchase a machine su expesive themselves, while tlie number using it will make rent that all can pay lvnumeraltve to the owner. There is no telling of bow grout benefit the introduction of tliis help to mining will be to the mining interests in all that section, it. \s to other minerals of value? Dr. iThere is hardly any lead in the Slate, no tin, no silver, no zinc at least none lias been found under my observation and survey. THAT MOUNTAIN OFHIJ.VF.It. Reporter Have you not heard of sonic alleged discoveries of vast quantities of silver in the northern portion of the State? l>r. L. lies, and I will show you some. Hen; is a beautiful specimen of iron pyrites which was soul me, with this letter, by a gentleman from Holm-. You see by the letter lie is in high expectation of its being silver. I wrote him there was no silver about it, but I could inform the owner how to utilize it. It is sulphuret of iron, and it --an be turned into something of considerable value by the manu facture of sulphuric acid if it exists in any largo quantities, as he says it does. Here, continued the Doctor, taking us in another room, is a speci men of valuable silver ore it is from Arkansas, near Little Bock. That will yiel-l, probably, about •s.outolhe toil, and is perhaps the richest; silver mine t’ois side of Colorado. There is no silver, however, I believe, in Georgia worth mentioning. Tin: cabinet. i .--t us lake a look, said t he ■ ourto-* ous and learned Professor, through the different rooms in which are my collections of .specimens. Here are some plants and liowers pressed and preserved, just scut in. The tin box is air tight, and is carried on the shoulders by the exploring parties, and plants will keep in it for a long time without withering. AVe are col lecting specimens of all tie- shrubs, trees, plants, and liowers of the dif ferent sections of the State, it;; we travel through, which are to in- pre served for reference. There, pointing to a largo collection of bundles on shelves oppositelo us, is my own pri vate herbarium, containing tea thou sand specimens of different speeiesof plants. Here are .specimens of soils, which we collect as we go, ami turn over to the Committee of Agriculture for ex amination and analysis. Here are specimens of us fine slate as you desire, from Rockmart; of very pure white marble from Jasper county; of large sized garnets from Paulding county; of graphite from Viekeiis and Carroll counties; of ru tile from Carroll and Gilmer; of ky anito from Carroll and Pickens; and tourmaline, of line quality, from Cobb and Pickens. Here is a specimen of very Hue kaolin, which J picked up in Atlanta the oilier day. And here is asbestus from your own county. BACK TO THE 1-1.000. It. Where did you got these curi ous looking shells? Dr. L. They are from the Chatta hoochee, near Columbus; shells of the cretaceous period, which show that in that dim age of the past the waves of the sea rolled over the farms we now cultivate and the cities wo live in along tile Chattahoochee, Flint, Ocniulgee and Savannah val leys. MINEK.U, STitIFEH. Haiti Dr. L., continuing, look at tills map of Georgia, and you will see how the mineral sections out through the State. In the extreme northwest corner, including Dade and a part of the ad joining counties, is the only coal sec tion of the State. Coexistent with! that, and extending farther out, say! to Taylor’s Ridge, is the section run ning northeast and southwest of the fosslliferous iron. Then wo haw the limestone region. Then the section of brown hematite iron ore, including some of the finest specimehs of ore known. Next is the section with the same I general direction of copper and gold ! extending all along the Chattahoo chee river down to its lower waters. | Then there is the streak of gneiss, sandstone ami granite. These in-j elude about all the mineral lines and sections of the Htate. OEOIUJIA AT THE CENTENNIAL. Reporter -Will you make an exhi- j bition of our minerals at the Oenten-! nial? Dr. L.—That is my intention. I ! have made arrangements to that of- j feet. The duty of assigning a place ; for that purpose will be discharged, j I suppose, by oilr commissioner. The exhibition wiil be in connection with that of tlie Agricultural Depart- j merit. TMKOWI.NO away money. Reporter -Can you say anything of parties losing by selling their lands on which minerals were afterwards found? Dr. L. I know of one water power disposed of for SIOO, which is now val ued at an offer of- $12,000. And I know also of a tract of land sold for $3,000, which has now mills and ma chinery on it to the value of $250,000. It is part of our duty to measure water powers, and there are, all COLUMBUS, GA., FRIDAY, JUNE 25, 1875. through North Georgia, some that are as tine as can bo found anywhere. Heportcr -What is tho nature of the country after you leave tho gneiss, sand-stone and granite section? Dr. 1,. -It is one broad strip of marl bed and perhaps phosphates. LATEST INFORMATION. This very morning (Monday ) I re ceived a letter from my Southern ex ploring party at Woolfolk’s Alill, fTmtt.ohoooheo comity, saying there was thirteen feet of marl there; and at Georgetown, in tjuitnuui county, it was eighteen feet thick down to the water’s edge. To give you ail idea how valuable this vast marl bed may be, there wore five companies in Now Jersey in tsc.7, that obtained 13*,iH)i> tons, wort It #1 5 per ton. This, you see, would give u general aggregate value of about $200,000 per annum from only live quarries. Southern Georgia, therefore, may not Have gold and iron and copper, but she has, nevertheless, in her bosom enor mous treasures of wealth. And in commotion with tills, I may revert to the discoveries of slate in Georgia, of which 1 just now told you. in IsilH, in tho Lehigh Valley, Pa,. thirly-tlirco slate quarries yielded annually $1,835,000, and our state ex isting at Roekmart in great abund ance is equal to any in value. Reporter T have probably intru ded long enough on your time. 1 Dr. R. No; stop. Hero is another letter l have just opened. 11 is about the copper beds al Villa Rica, yield ing 181 per cent,, which is nearly double the value of ores obtained at. Duektowu, Tenn., and this is tM feet depth of shaft, while tho shafts at j Duektowu are several hundred feet deep. These copper mines at Duektowu have been operated for twenty or thirty years, and of late years it"has made one and a half million dollars for tli” proprietors. Due mine sold, recently, for $35,000. There are sev eral mines there in all. Reporter lam very much obliged to you, Doctor, for your information and your courtesy iii giving it. Dr. ii. It gives me pleasure to afford any information connected with a work so important as this is for the development, of our Slate. I shall lie pleased to disseminate intel ligence concerning my department-, through tlie Herald. • ♦ • —— Ss,tu> Fire in snvniinuli. Savannah, ,1 uno til.

DAILY AND WEEKLY POE 1875. Tlie approach of tho Presidential election gives mi usual importance to tho o vents and develop incuts of 1875. Wo shall endeavor to describe them fully, faithfully and fearlessly. TIIE WEEKLY SUN has now attained a circula tion of over eighty thousand copies. Its readers are found in every State and Territory, and its quality is well known to the public. We shall not only endeavor to keep it fully up to the old standard, but to improve and odd to its variety and power. THE WEEKLY SUN will continue to be a thor ough newspaper. All the news of the day will be found in it, condensed when unimportant, at full length when of moment, and always, we trust, treated in a clear, interesting and instruct ive manner. It is our aim to make tho Weekly Hun the best family newspaper in tho world. It will be full of entertaining and appropriate reading of every sort, but will print nothing to offend the most j scrupulous and delicate taste. It will always c ontain the most interesting stories and ro mances of the day, carefully sc looted and legibly printed. The Agricultural Department is a prominent feature in tho Weekly Sun, and its articles Will always bo found fresh and useful to tho farmer. The number nf men independent in politics is increasing, and tho Wookly Hun is their paper especially. It belongs to no party, and obeys no dictation, contending for principle, and ior tho election of the best men. It exposes the corrup tion that disgraces the country and threatens the overthrow of republican institutions. It has no liar of knaves, and seeks no favors from their supporters. The markets of every kind and the fashions are regularly reported. The price of the WEEKLY SUN is one dollur a year fur a sheet of eight pages, and fifty-six coD umus. As this barely pays the expenses of paper and printing, we are not able to make any dis count or allow any premium to friends who may make special efforts to extend its circulation. Under the new law, which requires payment of postage In advance, one dollar a year, with twenty cents the cost of prepaid postage added, is the rate of subscription. It is not necessary to got j up a club in order to have tho Weekly Hun at this J rate. Any one who sends one dollar and twenty j cents will get the paper, postpaid for one year, j We have no traveling agents. THE WEEKLY HUN—Eight pages, 56 c Only $1.20 a year, postage prepaid.
