PIKEs PEAK. = A correspondent of the St
Louis Democrat writes from the mines:
A prospecting party headed by George A
Thomas of Rockport, Missouri, have returned
from 4 tour into the Bayou Salado, and on the
head waters of the South Platte. Mr.. Thomas
a gentleman of intelligence. whose energy as u
prospector is unrivallcd, and whose Judgment
with respect to a gold country, is unimpeacha- a.
ble informs me that there Is no gold either Ia
the mountains out of them, southwest from a
point twelve miles above the mouth of Cherry
Creek on this river, aud more especially is there
none on the head waters of the South Platte"
Another correspondent speaks of the occupa-
tIon of the miners.
He says that few persons digging for
gold as there is but little 10 be found; but man
are passing their leisure in drinking gambling
and horse racing: horses. mules. oxen, and such
chattels being put up as stakes in the absrnse
of money. A brisk trade is going on la town
lots. the profits of which are reaped 10y those
who sell. and not by those who buy the lots.
