GRASS VALLEY QUARTZ MINEs.-The Grass
Valley National says:
We have lived in this place since the
first discovery of auriferous quartz on Gold
Hill, in 1850, and at no time since then have
our quartz mines presented more encour-
aging prospect of their almost ineXhaustble
extent and value than at the present time.
We can give no better evidence of the
wonderful richness and extent Of our quartz
mines than the general prosperity and con.
tinued growth of our town. We havea pop
uation of near 5000, who depcnd almost
entirely on the quartz mines in this vicinity
for their support. We seldom hear our mer
chants or business men complaining of hard
times; our bankers are purchasing a larger
amount of gold taken from quartz leads than
ever before we can boast of finer churches,
schools and houses, more beautiful private res
licences, and as much general prosperity, as
any mountain town in California. Let un-
believing Thomases come and see for them.
