hall million dollars.
Two shafts have been sunk on this property, one Of
them so feet, the other so feet on different veins
averaging from two three in thic ckness which
veins still continue down increasing in width

can be readily taken at any time. other veins have

property, and intend TO erect machinery aud put the

The great feature of the week has been
the sue cessfnl laying of the ATLANTIC CA
BILE; which though occasioning nopublic
display or rejoicings, there has been con-
siderable private congratulations, and
hopes are entertained that it may be per-
manent institution. On the other hand,
many believe that it will fail, and that the
ingenuity of the Yankee people will yet
have to render it a success. Many of our
merchants have been in communication
with their foreign correspondents by it,,
though the tariff of charges are yet so high
as to preclude its general use. At last re-
ports it was working i.splendtdly." ~
The Imports at this port continue large
being for the week sl5,s ,287- but are a de-
crease from last week. The Exports are in
creasing, being for the week So, 343, $40, and
consist principally of Cheese, Corn, Cotton,
