THE NEW MILL. We this morning
stepped into the building near the Sapphire
Mill, which has recently been erected for Mr..
Genard Il Co.'s new mill, and were very
agreeably surprised to see the rapid progress
that is there being made. The building for
the new mill is spacious and exceedingly
well designed for the purposes for which It is
intended. Most of the machinery is already
on the ground, the engine has been set, pre-
partitions for placing the other machinery are
nearly completed, and Mr.. Genard assures
that, II nothing happened, they will have the
mill ready for operation in about three weeks.
This mill is being constructed entirely on
different principles from any other mill in
this State. No stamps are used, but in their
stead 4 crusher capable Of grinding ore in
rocks Of such size as they are when taken
from the mines, at the rate Of fifty or sixty
tons per day. The engine which has been
put up is n well finished one, constructed at
the Vulcan Foundry, at San Francisco, and
is Of about l00-horsc power. It will not be
however, TO work il to over about
40-horse power, for the purpose Of working
all the machinery Of the mill. The building
is three stories in height. In the upper story
the rock is deposited, and from there one
man feeds the crusher, which reduces the
ore to about the consistency Of sand. II is
then led BY troughs from the crusher to the
mullers, which are on the second floor, where
it is subject to a thorough grinding and pull
verizing between hard cast-iron and wrought
iron plates, after which it is led to the lower
floor, where it is thoroughly amalgamated in
eight barrels, each twelve feet long and six
feet in diameter, which are operated by the
steam engine. There. will be four Of the null
lers put up for present use, and two more arc
to be added hereafter. With four mullers, it
is expected that about forty tom Of orc per
day can be worked, and when the others are
added, I corresponding proportion more.
There is n roasting.furnace connected with
this new mill, and the ore will be roasted in
accordance with a process patented BY one Of
the firm, and. at 4 rate far cheaper than by
any process now in use. Messrs. Genard &
Co. claim that by their process Of working
orc they can save ninety per cent. OF its as
value, and do so ut 4 lower cost than
BY the common manner of reducing. Their
mill is so constructed that there Is great
Of labor, and there will only be
only seven men required to attend the mill
when crushing at the rate Of forty tons per
day.
THE HARRIS MI WATERMAN TRIAL
Our report OF this trial closed at noon Thurs
day-the further proceedings of that day not
reaching US, as our reporter did not transmit
them. Nothing was done but the reading Of
some afidavits on 4 further motion for 4 con-
t~inuance Of the case until the next term Of
Court, 4 point Of evident importance to the
The afidavits asserted that W
witnesses were absent, and could not be
another witness lying on a sick bed,
who could neither get up nor talk TO any n
cndangcring her health, and, after
the usual style Of such afidavits, said the de-
PENDANTS could not go to trial without their
valuable aid, etc. The consequent sparring
ensued between the counsel for the prosecu-
ton and defense, which the Judge stoppedby
that he would postpone the further
trial Of the defendants until a week from next
Monday. General Williams thought that
would work as great a hardship tn the prose-
cution as though it were postponed until the
next term Of Court, and asked Judge Hayden
il he would consent, providing counsel
to postpone the case until next term,
il, on consultation, he found it more con-
so to do, which his Honor consented
TO. Since, We have learned from Judge
Campbell, that the case will come up for trial
at the time originally fixed by the Court-on
Monday the 2Sth installation.
