Mining ON the River

The Jones Claim at White Rock, is at pres
ant doing better than any of the claims on
the river. 1t is probable that no claim has
ever turned out as great an amount of gold
considering the amount of capital invested
and the size of the claim. We are told by
Mr. Gaver, the, President of the Company;
that they got down towards the middle or
lower end of the claim, and took out of n
pocket, near the bed rock, bucket full of
what they considered the richest dirt. and
washed it out 1t was yellowish decidedly.
The yield was S564,OO They washed ten
hours the same day and took out $40 oil 90.
They have not worked over seventeen men
at any one time, and the expense of working
the claim per day, about $97 At mode

INCREASING BUSINESS Yesterday was
apparently a very busy dag in town, judging
from the great number Of big wagons and
teams that were constantly blocking up the
street in front of our Office. If business
keeps on increasing at the rate it has lately,
we shall either have to co1strttct new roads
for teams to come in and go out On. or else
we must have railroad. As sure as we are
to have a steamboat running here early in
the winter, we can hardly wait until then,
but already need a new road, for the one
that is now the only way for entrance and
exit thro ugh Lynehburgn, is not only too
narrow where it passes over the hill, bat Is
IN shocking state from mud water sc.

lNCoRPoRATIoN.- subject of incor-
porating the town, is exciting considerable
attention and discussion. and is meeting
with very general aid determined opposi-
ton from the mining portion of community.
The question is being canvassed in spirited
manner, and petitions for incorporation, and
remonstrances against it are circulating
freely. The law authorizing the Board of
Supervisors to incorporate the town, re-
quires that majority of the inhabitants
shall petition in favor of it, and as those
who are opposing the movement, are circu-
lating remonstrances in opposition thereto,
it will be an easy matter Tor the Board to
determine the question. 1t is one of those
questions which the American people deter
mine by maiorities, and whichever way it
may go, we presume the rights of the mi
nority will be duly respected While we
would not disturb the miner in any of his
rights or privileges, we have favored the in
corporation movement, because webelieyed it
necessary in order to establish an effective
police, establish and grade the streets, &c.
But should not be willing to do so. if we sup
posed for a moment that it would prove an
obstruction to working the mines, for that
would retard the growth of the town and
render incorporation unnecessary. We in
cline to the opinion that proper course
would incor crate the town, without detti-
ment or hindrance to the mining interest.
is, and has asked nothing of laws and incor.
poratiohs but to be let alone. Should ma
jority of the inhabitants petition for incor
poration, it is believed that it can be effected
without detriment to the mining interest,
for that is the life and interest of the town
itself.
