The liabilities Of the company on the lst OF March,
1868, amounted to 500 $50 81, and the assets to
s6,092 n, showing a balance Of Indebtedness Of
$l7,496 81. To meet the payment Of these labili-
ties the stockholders passed resolution authorizing
the trustees to issue the company's bonds, bearing
seven per cent interest for an amount not exceeding
thirty thousand dollars which will be sold at auction
one Of these days at the Merchants Exchange.
The trustees report that they have entire conf.
dence in the ultimate success of the company works.
Arrangements have been made by which, from this
time, continual supply Of ore, (small for the first
two or three months,) will be brought to the sur
faces and it is estimated that from and after the first
Of June next the minimum quantity Of pig lead pro-
duced will be about twenty-five tons per month,
which, at the present prices, would be worth SO $780,
and it is expected that the quantity may be increased
by the close Of the current year to thirty or even
thirty-ive tons per MONTH The new steam engine
just erected, and the machinery connected with it,
are all well and substantially fitted for their different
uses. new crushing machine was ordered during
The trustees visit, and they expect that it will be
ready for operation in the month Of April Then the
will be prepared for smelling it Is mined and
brought to the surface. The mining and current ex-
penses are estimated at $2,560 per month. A part
of this amount is calculated TO be expended in further
exploring the new vein on the Big Beaver, which
promises TO be Of the best yet discovered in st.
Lawrence county, and to enhance materially the va
lue Of the cornpany's property. II the estimates Of
the trustees prove correct the stockholders may con-
graduate themselves that although returns for their
investments were not realized as soon as they were
induced to expect, yet such is the extent and rich
ness Of their mineral lands, and favorable do the
prospects now appear, that they will soon be amply
paid for the delay and disappointment hitherto in
cured.
