THREE LUMPs FoUYD.--A few days since party
of miners who where out prospecting, being fatigued
sat down under large pine tree for refreshment;
one Of the men while carelessly scattering the
leaves with stick observed singular piece of
quartz which drew his attention, and when ex-
amined was found to be mostly gold This reused
them, and when they scraped over the surrounding
leaves found two more pieces which weighs as fol-
lows: the largest ounces dollars, the second, S
ounces dollars, and the third ounces II dollars.
This raised quite an excitement in this place. The
hill has been prospected and found TO be rich sur
face diggings Miners doing well in this place,
and business is aourishing. There is some call for
laborers Manhattan and Empire Creeks are pay
ing about half an ounce per day to the hand
Claims are generally held high. A. B.
