THE PLATTE RIVER com MINES


The Leavenworth correspondent of Messrs. Dun
can, Sherman Co write as follows of the location
and character of the new discoveries:
Enclosed We send you specimen of gold from,
the recently discovered mines in the western mart
OF Kansas, on the eastern slope of the Rocky Mtur-
tains. This specimen is part of some discoveries
made on the South Fork of the Platte River, near
the mouth of Cherry Greek, one of the tributaries
of the South Fork of Platte. We have carefully
weighed all the information that has reached rs
and are prepared to say that we are confident that
as rich deposits as have ever been discovered anv
where exist in and near the mountains of Kansas
We have collected all the information that has
reached us since the lst of September last and rc
gard the following facts well authenticated -
l. That deposits OF gold exist along the eastern slope
OF the Rocky Mountains, from parallel IS to paral
lei AZ. 2. That the gold thus far discovered is
dust scale and shot gold g. That the dnsf
and scale gold is found on the South Fork of Platte
and its tributaries 1. That shot gold is found on
the Arkansas, near its sources and its tributaries
5. That the bed rock has in no case been reached
as far we are informed. 6. That the gold-bear-
ing earth lies from two to six feet below the sur
face and the stratum is from four to twelve inch
es in thickness. This refers to the region in the Vi
cinity of Cherry Creek We have no information
on this point from any other region. :. That the
distance OF the discovered mines in the vicinity Of
Cherry Creek, from the mountains is from 20 to
80 miles s. That some specimens of Nugget gold
have been found, ranging in value from 81 to Slj.
9. That wood and water abundant; the wood
chiefly pine. 10. Distance from Leavenworth City
to Cherry Greek mines 700 miles bv the Fort Lara
mie road; 600 miles by way of the Smoky Iliir
fork of the Kansas River; 500 miles by way of the
Santa Fe road; $50 miles south from Fort Laramie;
60 miles northeast from pixies Peak and 800
miles northwest from 'Bent's Fort on the Santa
Fe road. H. The country is easy of access, having
military roads stretching to the north and south of
the discovered mines, and passing within $50 miles
on the south, and hundred miles on the north;
the gold region lying between the California road,
by way of Fort Laramie on the north, and the
Santa Fe road on the south. As to the truth of the
facts stated above, there exists no doubt in our
minds nor have we converSed with any, who
do not regard them as well settled.-Neo York
