fair way Of being realized The Potosi Lead Company"
and the missouri Lead Company" have secured nearly
the whole of the mineral tract in Washington county
Missouri known to be the richest deposits in the Western
country and the most extensive mining operations will be
immediately commenced. The Potos Company have

THE MISSOURI LEAD MINES
We mentioned few weeks since that q company call

extensive scale than the people in this country had
accustomed to seeing The mines located the

operations have scarcely commenced the the yield Of
