Another California.

The following is an account of the al
legged discovery ola gold region in the re-
public Of Bolivia, situated in part Of the
Andes, about sevendays' journey from the
city of La Paz. The deposits were orig
nally found by an Indian on the banks ola
small stream, and were the same charac.
ter as those in California, except that they
were OF greater purity. The writer is ev-
IDENTIFY under the excitement of extraordin-
airy hopes; but makingevery allowance for
that circumstance. his statement, as that Of
respectable resident in the country, is en-
ii.led to attention:
II again have to call your attention to
the subject of Curabaya. 1t is supposed
that this viii be a second California They
are discovering every day new and i'm
mensely rich veins of gold, but from one
mine they have got out already $4,000
quintals Of ore. which will yield an amount
of from 100000 to S250.00O in gold
This is only waiting for proper machinery
for grinding.
"Curabaya differs from Tipuani in one
respect, where there are veins and not
washlnes, although these last exist as well,
but are not worked on account Of thesources
of the gold: thatis, the veins being on the
surface. The stories told of the riches
land they gain strength every day. are al
most incredible, and every one here is en-
deavoring to get share in some of the IN
dertakiugs.
81 wish could convince YOU and others
of thu, ilnhear1 of. riches which have rpver
been explored by the Spanards.and which
are only now coming to light."-Londoa
