MINING INTELLIGENCE.
(From the Mining Journal of this day.)
A lower range of prices exists this week, with scarcely
-an exception, for dividend mines. We trace this result,
as before indicated, to this class of mines having been
unusually sought after at the commencement of a brisk
market, by which they were elevated beyond their natu-
ral or legitimate value as property for investment; the
market is, therefore, at the present time, quite in favour
of the buyer. In other mines a very preponderating
business continues to be transacted, with a discrimination
I'.igbly creditable to the majority of speculators; and in
seine of the progressingconcerns we have a considerable
rise in value to note, founded on actual discoveries of ore.
In the Metal Market, Copper is in good request.—ln
English Tin, the demand for refined exceeds the supply,
but bars and blocks are quiet; a good business has been
done in Foreign, at steady prices.—Tin-plates continue
to move off freely at full prices.—Lead is firm.
The Keswick Mines sold 3 tons of lead ore, at 101. 7s. ad
;.and 12 tons at 10/. 17s. Gd. per ton.
The sale of black tin from Wheal Vincent went off
well, and produced satisfactory prices : the amount
realised was 901. 14s. 21, from which is to be deducted
the due; 1-15th. 61. Os. I Id.
The biddings for the Newtonard's lead ore, about 100
tens, varied from 9/. 12s. 6d. by Locke and Co., to that of
Joseph Walker, Parker, and Co., 11/. ss. 6d.
Teen) were sold from Strontian mine, at Bagillt, 60
Imi of silver lead ore, at 11/. 17s. per toe.
Tamar sold in London, 69 tons of silver-lead ore, at
181.155. per ton.
East Wheal Rose sold 133 tons of silver-lead ore, at
frtinr 141. Is. to 141, 15e. per ton.
Ilerodsfooe So

cesel ldriving the 74 fathom level.

37 ton
last.
East of good quality ore
%ere sampled on Tuesday as
East Wheal George sampled, for the first time at Lop-
well,, on Wednesday week, 21 teas,
dry weight, January
ores.
Business has been done in East Wheal Russell at
former high rates; and, as the engine will be
erected,t
and the sinking of the shaft continued in a few days, the
progress of the concern is looked to with great interest.'
A `act of great importance is, that the lode is so large
(about 35 feet wide) and underlays ao little, that the
nerpendicular shaft will be sunk in it to a depth of 40
firm—thus proving the lode as they go doers,
Crebors are still in demand, at advance] prices.
There have been a good many inquiries for North
-Whsal Roberts. and some transactions have taken place.
Independent of its own merits, its proximity to the west
n` El4t. Wheal George adds to its importance, the shares
iu whish have changed hands at a high premium.
.At Trethellan, they expect the next two months' pro-
duce to by I'2o tone.
Court Grange sampled 24 tons of silver-lea 3 ore on
Wednesday.
They .. ha
- now about 8 tons of copper ready at
Pa-
ren. and sampled 10 tons of silver-lead on Wednesday.
Alt-y-Crib are dressing 9 tons of silver-lead per
week; the air shaft is in
capital ore, the end driving
west still good, and the mines look well.
At Ecgair-hir, the lade in the adit, with the tributers,
ia yielding 3 tons per fie.; they will dress 10 or 12 tons
this month, from two men's working. It is believed
there are thousands of tons of ore over the adit level.
At Bronfloyd, the lode of tributers continues very good,
and the deep adit driving east improving.
