place, was "stil rich The owners Of the
mine appear to have struck upon chimney

A SUCCESSFUL PROCESS.

SINE months ago we illustrated and de
,cribed at length a"Choride of Sodium pro.
cess which many years ago bad been STUN
bled upon in The course of some experiments
made by Mr.. John n. WyckoG at his gold
mines in Virginia, and since tested by him to
very considerable extent. We have recently
heard more Of it, viz: that it has been tried
at the Holman Mill, Black Hawk Colorado,
by Professor Bradford, who found that the
tulings of that mill yielded from 500 to
5000 per ton by this process; that Engineer
Aiken has tiled it in Montana, and found it
produced from the rock he tested an average
of S4QO per ton, some of it going as high AS
$4,000; that number of scientific gentlemen,
as well as many practical mill meu have ta~
ken ores t. be treated at Mr. Wyckoff's Re
duction Works in Williamsburg, and after
working them in patches of 200 lbs. to the
charge, with their own hands, have been alb
soutely startled at the results; and Il at some
thirty mining companies operating in differ
ent parts of the country have decided upon
adopting it, These particulars we have not
only from MIR. WIS own lips but from those
Of other gentlemen of veracty who are not
pecuniarily interested in the success of the
process-except in so far as every person en-.
gagged in mining must be interested and
who have tested the matter themselves One
Of them is Professor Bradford made
the test in Colorado, without the know ledge
Of Mr.. Wand he Informs us that he is Ger
tain it is the best process for saving gold,
and thinks it may prove the best in saving
silver and other metals, although not quite
sure about it yet, but through tie JOURNAL OF
MINING will inform the mining pul lie Of the
results of extended experiments in that d.
rection, which be is now making. Many old
miners and mill men will probably doubt
whether such results can be obtained as Mr.
Wyckof's books show, for they are really
marvellous, but let them take 200 lbs of ore
with them, and their own quicksilver and
salt, manipulate the batch with their own
bauds at bis wurks-or let them do it at
their own local mills in the manner indicated
on page III, vol. of this journal-and
they will probably be as much astouished as
was our friend DR.. Stevens, who tells US he
obtained by this process double the Yield
given by any other We must confess that
we have been very slow to believe, and are
not yet ready to give it our unqualified in
dorsement, but when we hear such compe
tent and disinterested gentlemen speaking so
highly of it after fair test, we certainly can
do no less than to advise all interested 10 the
cheap, simple, rapid and eficacious working
oil ores to give it a trial.-American Journal
