Lean urourietorsZand found that the inn
movements which have been going on IN the
mill for some months past had been COM
pleted, and that the mill was now in excellent
running order throughout. There are IN TINS
mill twelve stamps, weighing nine hunoreo
pounds each, divided into three batteries
They have double stems, and do not re'olNe'

commonly in use here. The amaiSamatllS
machinery consists of SIX Hepburn pans
and six separatorS-a style OF atnalsaii"'t tU
lately introduced in this Territory In the
pans the pulp is pulrer!zed very 'norouSriy,
tbn s;Iye, freed. and reduced to chloride by
cbami,sI accents. and when it has been drawn
of into the separatorS, precipitants are added
and the precious metals, already coated with
nuicksilyer in the pans, settled, and COM
bining with the mercury remains, while the
now comuaratively worthless matter IS drawn
off preparatory for another charge. The
engine, new one, is forty horse power, and
capable of driving much more machinery
than thew have in the mill at present. They
are engaged on Gould & Curry ore, Of which
they can work about twenty or twenty-four
tons in twenty our hours. Mr.. Cole, the
millwright, is deserving OF great credit for
the fine workmanship displayed throughout
the works, not only, but for the CELEBRITY with
which he has completed the job.
