while tie others can skip What they 50
well know.
The ascent Of these mountains consists
Of alternate rayincs or canons, and hills
running parallel, nearly due west to the
Snowy Range, the highest Of the ranges
which runs, as you know, North and
South. These rayines or gnlches in many
instances cross other gulehes rnning par

rating them These gulehes are, all Of

surface down to the bed rock, which is in
every instance 10 be found underneath, at
from three to fifteen feet The gold is
finely distributed all through this, invisible,
unless by chance there be nugget. The
gold is gathered, not as formerly in Cali
fornia, BY pan or rocker, which are used
only for prospecting, as a general thing,
but in sluices, which are long troughs or
boxes, not unlike Ira Cochran's spout for
running down wood. On the bottoms Of
the sluice-boxes are nailed ri6ics, which
are elects Of wood about one foot apart;
or in some instances grooves cut about an
inch deep, running across the boxes, in
which quicksilver is placed. These slui-
.ces are from two 70 fifty rods il length.
A stream Of water about tgo inches deep
is then turned through them, thus prcpar-
ed, and the gold-bcaring earth is thrown
in BY shoyels, while man with many
