The Gold Mines of Borneo.

The great island of Borneo is as rich,
perhaps, in the precious metals as Mexico
or Peru. possessing in one convenient spot
a population of NEARLY 100000 Chinese,
who work on the gold mines of their own
accord, and for their own benefit. The
annual produce of the mines on the west
coast, is estimated at $4,744 600. The
quantity of gold procured in sumatro, the
supposed Chersonieus of the ancients, is, ac-
cording 10 Mr.. Marsden, about SO, 500 oun,
ces, which, at "a sterling the ounce. is
worth fI23, 200, equal to 492, 600 Span
ish dollars. From calculation recently
made, it appears that the number of Chi
nese employed in the gold mines at Mont.
rada, and other places on the western SIDE
of Borneo, amounts to not less than 30, 900
working men. This island has long sup
piled in the shape of gold dust in small in
gots, returns in barter for o considerable
portion Of the traffiicin opium and piece
goods to the small trading vessels anonst
the eastern islands; and there is no doubt
Of the existence of considerable deposites
Of gold in the interior ofthat vast island in
various localities. .-Pittsburgh Post.
