From the above il will be seen that the recaipt, Of
Flour and Wheat for the eight weeks ending October
- are larger by 26i 375 bushels thsu durcg the cor
responding period in any of the three years previous
The receipts Of Wheat alone. however, are less by
100000 bushels than during the period in 1857,
and about 10000 bushes less than in 1856. The in
erease of mills for the manufacture OF Flour in the
West causes much larger proportion of the Grain to
be rert to this market in Flour than formerly. In
1856 the receipts Of Flonr for the above eight weeks
II $50 barrels; 10 1871, l0 80 barrels; 10 lsSs
I39 IA barrels; while in 1889 the amount is 259,SlJ
berrels-more than three times the receipts OF $780,

MrSsEsOTA.-I nolose return Of l57i tuns mineral
raised and dressed in the month of September, being
- tuns more than July 81 tuns than August, and
the heaviest months product yet reaized thus year.
You i'll observe also that than wothrds OF the
amount is in III masses one of which weighs TO- 800
pounds and Is others over 200 pounds each while
and mus Yield a high percentage. This increase Of
the past two months shows that We are rapidly recov
erpg our former rate of product, and we hope to
reach something like the old fgures again.
have lately made q survey of 8l our under ground
works and find q considerable improvement In the
general appearance Of the veins and especially in the
western part OF the mine, since my previous monthly
report Nos. l. 2, 3, and chats are all down TO the
90 fm. level and from the first three We are driving
each way for connection. For the last i these snas
have been sunk through good vein, and a'e all pro-
ducing macs copper at the bottom. East OF No. 5
We have stopped the ground for 40 to 80 feet which s
viii weigh probably 30 to 10 tuns Oh the west of
this shaft are stoping by hesvy mass which can;
not be estimated at present. The 80 fm level holed
from Noe to shsfs, aud from all appearances will
produce large amount of copper. At the bottom OF
Noe and Shafts we are at work on mass copper,
and they promise to be very productive points The
cor at No. H. above the III fn. level pro-
producing considerable "copper" and we believe viii
full confirm our previous expectations in regard to
the produciveness Of that ground The oo and 6o nm
level, esst of No. o. both rich n copper and that
part OF the mine will help our future production very
much In fact, all parts OF the mine look as fsvor'
able ard as promising with the exception OF the ex-
traordlpary mass of 80, have ever seen at shy
time.
September ehowing Jt tuns Lear'y two-thrds OF
vbicb Il mass copper. This would have been arger
by several tups but for accident TO the stamp mil,
tbroviI half the number Of heads out OF use until We
can get the damage repaired. After that, We expect
that tie s,smp-stuf nov accommodating, with the
monthly additions from the mine will be sufficient TO
keep the stamp mill running through the Winter, tor
fine iirst time and make handsome contribution to
our morthly returns. Every thing, in fact, is DOW
prouisinx well Tor the ensuing " nter5 WORK end
proncr AT 10 fm level east OF No T. We are catting
nm fire mas Of over two feet thickness, quite sold
And pure and the sane level Is showing some good
mns,es 10 the west Of No. !. We have holed the
oronrd between Nos | and 3, and have nov, there
fore some 700 ee.in length opened the 40 m level,
the n Oct Of which is rich and productive We ars
both these shsits 10 the 50 I'm. level and both
sbov a good vein in the bottom. No. shaft is also
snkipr with no very favorable result yet; but Ee
tb1k wien down TO the 30, il will reach good ground,
from the fact Of The coppery ground above dipPin9
from The west With this shaft in good vein, and
the next lit proving productive as the W i'm level
Iubch we have every reason &c e1pectl another year
M, give Us lareely.ipcreased and more profitable

surplus over our mortbly expenses. ,...
