The mi. ksi rer mines of California are believ-
e.! 10 be numerous, extensive, and very valuable.
There is one near San Jose, winch belongs TO.

co. The cinnabsr ore, which produces the
Quicksilver, lies near tnF suridCe, - cassiy P'N

Discoveries of other mines are reported bu
NO ertain information respecting them las been
made public. Il il, undoubtedly. foTtunate
Circumstance that nature, in bestowing on Cali
forum such vast metallic treasure, has provided,
almost in It's immediate neighborhood, inexhsust-

duty to suggest for the management OF the gold
region.
As soon az the necessary explorations can be
made. and proper information obtained, it will be
well 10 offer these mines for sale, and Commit
their development to the hands Of private en-
terprise.

silver, iron. and copper ores, in the Territory
but there IS no information sufficiently accurate
respecting them. to justify any statement OF then
existence q value.
