Mining Items.


GooDYEAR's BAR.-We are indebted to
H. Brown, Esq, for the following items.
Robinson & Co. are taking out about an
ounce a day to the hand. Two pounds
were taken from a wing-dam a few days
ago, short distance above the bar. The
Union Co., deep cut and tunnel, 600 feet
in length; the drift has paid for the labor
of excayating, though the best days work
was only five ounces. They have sunk a
a shaft at the farther eud of the drift, l6
by 20 feet and 80 feet deep, and timbered
it securely; the work is the most ingenious
on the river and has already cost $8,COO
They contemplate constructing water
balance y for hosting dirt from the shaft,
the first contrivance Of the sort we have
seen Oh the river. A pulley is placed
over the centre Of the shaft, over this
rope is passed with one end reaching to
the bottom; to each end Of the rope large
tubes are attached; while one of the tubes
is at the bottom being filled with dirt,
the other is filled with water from sluice
at the top, which in its descent draws up
the dirt. The water is emptied out at
the bottom and runs out of the tunnel;
the tub filed with dirt, while the one at
the top is filled with water, and makes ats
descent. The contrivance is simple. but
effective.
Ham BAR.-Two claims in the Massa-
chusetts Co. were sold last week for
$4,000 each. Largest dsy's work during
the week $3.50.
CoX's BAR.-It is said that more gold
is being taken out at this place thisseason
than in any previous one; one reason is
the great advantages of machinery never
before in use at this place. The tunnels
extend into the hill some four or five hun
dred feet where they have struck another
lead. There are III wheels in the river
within distance of five miles, which seem
to rival each other in trying to make
night hideous with their screaching. 4
Mr.. Reed furnishes US with the follow
ing, which we are obliged to condense.-
The Bed Rock Co. took out 291s OF. on
Saturday, nearly one half of which was
obtained from one pan of dirt. Monday
% OF. and an average of II OF. every day
since. A claim has been sold this week
for $4,000. The Ravine Co. divided $l40
to the share last week; this week up to
Friday morning they have taken out 81
OF. The Ten Strike claims continue to
pay well. Last week, ozs to the share
this week about the same.
At Rocky Bar, Arlington & Co. have
struck rich lead, which pays from 2 to 4
oz. to the hand day. This bar was for
long time neglected, no one caring to
undertake to remove the rock-hence its
name.
Down RIvER.-From Capt. Dowling,
who in canvassing the mining districts,
has had an opportunity of making very
correct observations, we learn the fol-
lowing: The Senatorial claim, near the
Yuba county line, yielded $1,000 least
week-two sluices. These claims promise
to be very rich; as much as Sc has been
taken out at one pan. The claims at St.
Joe Bar are paying better now than ever
before. The Black Hawk Co, AZ OF on
Saturday.
- BIC SrR1KE.-A nugget of pure gold
weighing eight pounds, was taken from
the claims Of Messrs, Gauthier & Co., on
New York Flat, last Tuesday.
