GOLD IN THE PHILLIPINES.
Mr. G. D. Rice treats of gold and gold mining in the Phillipines in the Engineering and Mining Journal. He says:
"Some minera in the Philippines claim to have made large profits by working the sands and beaches on the sea-coast. I saw one pace along the beaches of Panay where there was mining apparatus in operation for a mile or more getting out the gold deposits, which pro bably had been washed into the ocean in the currents of some river and deposited along the shores. The gold obtained seemed to be very fire, worn smooth by long action of the waters. Evidently the original lodgment of this gold was in some far-away mountain, and it was washed to the seas by the rivers. Much of this gold was invisible and would be classed under the head of four gold.
"Placer gold in the Philippines always has a smoother appearance for the reason that it is tumbled about in the ravines and along the river-courses for a long time before it, reaches a place of deposit in the shores of some river or at the beaches. The natives have been at work getting gold for nearly one hundred years, and some of them have secured large stores of the valuable metal without knowing its true value. I have entered nipa shacks of the natives for a resting place through the night, and have been shown the collections of gold and other metals of the native father and his family. Although the shack may not be worth $10 and there may be a shortage of the neces sities of life, the native miner will be able to cxhibit a bigfel of nuggets about the size of peas, most of them being flattened and worn, Flour gold, too, will be seen, but this is the kind that the native sells or disposes of in some way first, and he keeps the nuggets. In fact, in almost every portion of the archipelago, until the past few months, there has been prac tically no profitable way for the native niner to change his treasure in commercial money. He has had to do his bartering with gold, and frequently the gold has had but little current value in sections of the islands, which have been cut off froh the outside world. I have seen natives in actual want who were possessors of little boxes of gold.
"A far richer field to work in the Philippines than prospecting just now, is to go among these isolated mountain towns and barries for the purpose of purchasing this accumulation of gold in the bands of natives who have not the ability to dispose of it. There are many of the natives who never go more than five miles from their homes during their lives, and they might have several thousand dollars' worth of gold which they have collected since they could work, and have not been able to get the benefit of it for want of means for changing it into commercial money. Large amounts of this gold could be brought up and shipped to the sea-coast for transportation to America or other countries, and the returns would be profitable.
"It is evident that there will not be any.ex. tensive mining operations in the Philippines until parties with capital enter the field and put up stamp-mills or smelting plants. There are seine rich lodes"in the mountains of the southern islands of the Philippines, and in less than five years some of the promoters of mining schemes there are going to make a great amount of money. There are thousands of natives available for service in the mines at the low rate of wages of ten to fifteen cents per day, while there are a great number of Chinese coolies here who would work for even less than that. There are at present some Ameri can mining concerns represented here, and steps are being taken to put in neces ary equipment to utilize the veins of quartz which have been located, have been through the mining sections of Panay, part of Luzon, Min- danao and several other islands, and in every. instance, the samples of gold ore were pro mising.

MAMMOTH STEAMERS FOR THE PACIFIC TRADE,
THE LARGEST SHIPS IN THE WORLD. A telegram dated New London, the 15th ult., says:-
Actual work began this week on the laying of the keels to the mammoth iron steamships to be built for the Great Northern Railway at the works of the Eastern Shipbuilding Company at Gorten, opposite New London. There was issued from the company to-day an authoritative stateurent regarding the size of the ships, which show them to be the largest vessels in the world now building or planned. The new vessels will be of 20,000 tons register and 33,000, tons displacement, or just to,000 tons more dis- placement than the new Atlantic greyhound Deutschland. The new steamers, which are being built primarily for cargo carriers, are not as long as many Atlantic liners, but are much wider and deeper. The following are the principal dimensions of the vessels: Length, 630 feet; beam, 73 feet; depth, 56 feet.. They have each five continuous decks, extending the whole length of the ship, with three additional partial decks amidships."
Passengers as well us freight will be carried, and accommodation is provided for nearly 1,000 passengers in three classes The vessels will have a speed of fourteen knots an hour and will carry over 4,000 jous of coal in their bunkers. They are designed to carry cattle, chilled or frozen meats in refrigerator chambers, fruit or any kind of cargo that may appear for trans portation. It is estimated that when completed the steamships will cost fully $5,000,000, and they will run from the Pacific Coast to Oriental ports in connection with the Great Northern Railway.
THE INVASION OF ENGLAND.
GENERAL MERCIER'S REMARKABLE SPEECH.
The gist of the remarkable speech recently made by General Mercier is given in the Pull Mall Gazette of 5th ultimo as follows:-
In the debate in the Senate yesterday, on the increase of the French Fleet, General Mercier delivered a remarkable speech, in which he urged that France should be prepared, if neces- sary, to land a force on British shores. Though the English Navy was double the strength of that of France, it had an immense line of coast to protect, as well as her merchant navy all over the world. It was therefore, possible that France might find herself at certain points not only numerically equal, but even superior in her engines of destruction. It was consequently not chimerical to entertain the idea of landing a French force on British soil. General Mercier desired to add words to the Government Bill to give effect to his ideas, but the President ruled that this was out of order, and the Minister said the proposal could not be entertained.
An Exchange Company's Paris telegram states that the majority of the French papers refrain from commenting on General Mercier's speech, with the exception of the Gaulois, which approves it. A few of them allude to it

THERAPION Hongkong, tat Tung, toon,
This succesful and highly popular remedy, as employed in the Continental Hospitals by Ricord, Rostan, Jobert, Velpenu, and other, combines all the desiderata to be sought in a medicine of the kind, and surpasses everything. hitherto employed.
THERAPION No. 1, in a few days only, removes all discharges from the urinary organs, effectually superseding injections, the use of which does irreparable harm by laying the foundation of stricture and other serious dis'! cases. In dysentery, piles, Irritation of the lower bowel, cough, bronchitis, asthma, and some of the more trying complaints of this kind, it will be found astonishingly efficacious, affording prompt relief where other well-tried remedies have been powerless.
THERAPION No. 2, for impurity of the blood, scurvy, pimples, spots, blotches, pains. and swellings of the joints, secondary symp toms, disease of the bones, sore throat, and diseases for which it has been too much, a fashion to employ mercury, sarsaparilla, &c., to the destruction of the auderer's teeth and ruin of health. This preparation purifies the whole system through the blood, and throughly eliminates every poisonous matter, from the body.
THERAPION No. 3, for nervous exhaustion, waste of vitality, and all the distressing con- sequences arising from early error, excess, residence in bot, unhealthy clinates, &c. It posseses surprising power in restoring strength and vigour to the debilitated.
THERAPION may be procured of the prin cipal Chemists and Merchants throughout the world. Price in England 2/9 and 4/0 In order ing, the purchaser should state which of the: three numbers he requires, and observe that the word THERAPION appears on the Govern ment, Stamp (in white letters on a red ground) affixed to every genuine package by order Her Majesty's Hon.
