COUNTRY MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL—MA tat 15.
At this day's market there was a fair attendance of the
town and country trade, with several buyers from a dis:
tance, and a large business might have been done in wheat
and flour had holders been disposed to take the low prime
lately current ; however, more money was 'insisted upon,
and where sales were made, the depression noted on Friday:
was generally recovered. French flour did not partici-Pat°
in the improvement, and must be quoted is per sack lower
on the week. Oats and oatmeal met with an extremely
slow sale, and a decline of id per 451 b, and 6d to 9d Per
load was submitted to. Barley, beans, and peas were in
fair request at late rates. Indian corn on the spot was
only in small demand, and fully is per qr. lower for white;
cargoes arrived off the coast were more inquired for, and,
sales were effected at 31s 6d per quarter for Galatz and
Odessa, and 29s Gd per quarter for Ibrail3.—cost, freight,
and insurance.

IPSWICH—MARCH 15.
We had only a fair supply of wheat ; the trade was 3
a little dull, and if sales were pressed at all, 6d to ls per
qr. reduction in price was submitted to. Barley is 9:11,
almost done with, but few samples appeared at make e
and no inclination on the part of the maltsters to coati"
buying. Beans and peas sold at late prices.

This Company has been enabled to secure, in the celebrated Ne-
vada District, California, the riot to purchaso the large property of
Thos. O. Larkin, Esq., reported upon, as after mentioned, to contain
21,600 acres in extent, and to possess extensive goid.bearing quartz
veins and auriferous deposits, and gold washings, and to be well
adapted for apiculture purposes.
The property is deLeribed as being situated on the west bank of
the Feather River, which is a tributary of the Great Sacramento
River, and to be at a distance of about ►95 miles by water communi-
cation from San Francisco. The Sacramento is at all times naviga-
ble for steamers ; and it is stated that, during a greater pot tion of
the year, vessels can navigate the Feather River up to the property.
The estate is freehold, and the vendors guarantee an indisputable
title, free from incumbrances.
The mineral importance end value of the property will be best
Judged of by the following extract from the repot t of the Surveyor,
Nicholas Gray, Esq , who, in September, 1852, surveyed it as an officer
tirider orders from the United States Government. i fter giving a
detailed description of each lot, be sums up his report es iollows :-
1' I class the whole estate, containing 21,656 70-100 acres, asi-
m
neral land. Gold is found from the bottom of the smallest gully to
the summit of the highest mountain on the land, in the soil as in the
quartz rock. Some indications of iron are to be observed at the
6311 th-west corner ofthe Table Mountain. Quicksifver has been dis-
covered in the same vicinity, and I have been informed by men of
veracity
that a few diamonds have also been dug from the slope of
the same mountain. The whole front of the estate on Feather
River is about 24 miles, taking its meanders, and I believe the gold-
bearing quartz rock is to be found all along the bank of that stream,
And extending back generally two or three miles. By reference to
to the map you have ail the principal points laid down of quartz
rock, rich diggings, Soc."
Further important details will be found in the accompanying
document and map of the property; and other particulars of an in-
teresting nature respecting this extensive .erritory May
be inspected
at the office of the Company.
Mr. Gray states in his Reports that specimens of the quartz veins
./.erere taken by him from the estate. These Mr. Larkin forwarded to
London for analysis, and the result of that analysis, as given in the
rPendix, shows that with careful rnanagsment a large return for the
ital invested may be reasonably expected from the Company's
??Ining operations.
The working capital of 100,0001., leaving the remainder for pur-
chase money, will, it is anticipated, be amply sufficient to conduct
the operations of the Company; end it is intended to expend
the same chiefly in erecting extensive central mills for grinding the
auriferous quartz on the property, and for reducirg and extracting
the_os gold from its matrices, whether sands, earths, or quartz, in the
!,1 t complete, perfect, and economical manner; and also in en-
co_ uraging farmers to settle upon the property, whose rents would be
Ray
with its vales and location, and .who would In no
way interfere with the extraction of its mineral riches.
which
venders have agreed to sell the property at a price one-half of
is included in the present capital, and the remaining half
IS to be paid when the capital is increased to £500,000, and when
..dividends to the amount of 20 per cent. have been paid to the
ohareholders as before mentioned. The entire price to be
Thus paid in moities is probably not one-hundredth part of the mere
value of the gold to be extracted Lom the lands, independently of
their fitness and eligibility for cultivation; and the company have
been met with the greatest fairness by the vendors, who do not seek
to be paid for the estate,;except a deposit of 5 per cent on one moiety
_Of the purchase money, until an English surveyor, nominated by the
-Board of Supervision, shall have examined the estate, reported upon
it, and declared it to be ill accordance with the prospectus. The
Price per acre on the portion of purchase•money payable out of the
Present capital is less than 101.
The Company may find it desirable that a town shall be erected
near the junctions of the Feather River with the north fork of that
river; and as great facilities and advantages will be offered to resi-
dents, the particular lands to be set apart for this city, looking at the
Well known rapidity with which American cities are created and
Peopled, may probably, in a few years, realise prices sufficient to re-
store to the Shareholders the entire purchase money.
An organised system of granting leases of mines on the estate Is
also in contemplation, which will yield large returns to this Com-
-IP_InY ; and the Board of Supervision desire to call the attention of
other individuals and companies contemplating the purchase of farm-
lOg._ lands, alluvial diggings, cr quartz mining locations, to their vast
tracts of territory. The Board will be prepared to make sales and
trent leases of portions of the Feather River Estate.
The Board of supervision believe that they indulge in no exagge-
ration when expressing their conviction that the estate fairly put to
dividend—what
to its full capabilities will, for many years, annually yield as
wridend—what may reasonably be expected from all secces-ful gold
utPanies—at least 20 per cent. on the entire capital besides
bonuses. The investment in the shares must, therefore, be equal to
that offered by any other comeany, either in Australia or California.
The Board of Supervision will have the power of carrying out the
contract with the vendors. and of settling the statutes of the corn-
tanY, under which all its aftaira will be repeated. The deposit will
