CIRCULAR.
SAN Francisco,
SATURDAY MORNING, Sept. l, 1861
The Mining Share Market during the
past week, with but few exceptions, has
been characterized by extreme dizziness,
most stocks having declinedfrom previous
quotations.
Hale & Norcross continues inactive, but
is firmly held, meeting with small sales at
$1,000, b. 80. From the LIST to the 18th
ult., 1891 tons Of ore were sent to differ
ent mills, yielding $llS,o00 or an avager-
age of about $50 per ton.
Savage has been dealt in to some extent,
declining from SLIGO to l,l00, rose to
l,l05, receded to 1910, rallied again to
1000, and sold yesterday at l,085. Dur
ing the week ending August 26th, $40
tons Of ore have been extracted, and LOGO
tons were shipped from the mine. The
south face Of the drift, sixth station, con-
tinues in ore. inclining rapidly to the
westward. North body, anne level, has
contracted very much, but overhead is still
looking very well. The east cross.cut
through the Potosi chimney develops but
little ore. The south Wine, from the nth
station, has been sunk to q depth OF IA
feet, the last few feet in good ore. Con-
siderable water is met with at this depth,
and work has been suspended tor the pres
emit. The drift from the seventh station is
in 50 feet from the shaft-the rock is hard
and work progresses slowly. Little has
been done in the southwest drift OF the
Curtis shaft; the west drift looks very well.
Receipts Of bullion during the month OF
August amounted to $l46,oo9.
Crown Point has met with few sales,
receding from $3.50 to 935. Forthe week
ending August 26th, 649 toni Of ore have
been raised from the mine. The drift on
the 400-foot station, is in ITO feet. The
Rhode Island mill is now crushing about
30 tons of ore per day. No important
change to note in the mine. The yield OF
bullion last month amounted 70 some
$4,000.
Gould & Curry is in little request, and
but few feet changed hands the past week.
declining from 1920 to 7l0, and quoted
yesterday at 700. The small deposits Of
rich ore discovered recently in the drift
from the Bonner shaft-second station
continue as work progresses in the incline.
The prospects Of leading down into a large
body Of the same quality Of ore are
thought to be very good, and an average
assay shows a yield of 1886 to the ton.
The incline is now in ~porphyry, and is
likely to continue so to the 100 feet for
which they are sinking. The drifts on
the fourth station show no change. Re-
ceipts OF bullion for the month Of August
amounted to $l20, 900.
Yellow Jacket has improved, opening at
$3.50, receding to 10, advancing to 746,
and selling yesterday at 73o. For the
week closing Monday, 9th ult, SO tons
of first class and 2,450 tons Of second
class ore were extracted from the mine,
and the yield of bullion exceeded $685.
900, making an aggregate for the first four
weeks of August.
Ophir has been dealt in to the extent Of
over 100 feet, ranging from S2l0 to 22l,
closing at 2l0 bid. There is nothing Of
any interest to note from this claim.
Chollar- Potosi declined from $l7S to
l42, closing yesterday at 1919. During
the past week 534 tons Of ore were sent
to custom mills. From the 4S5-toot
level, in the Potosi ground. 100 tons OF
ore Of an inferior quality were extracted,
but better results are shortly expected.
The new engine is now being placed in
position. The decline in this stock the
past week has been Ill part attributed to
the rumor that an assessment would soon
be levied but this is not likely to occur
with a balance Of S40,0 600 in the treasury
Of the company.
Belcher has also met with o decline, ad-
vancing early in the week from Sl55 to
l62, declining to $l45, seller 90. and
closing yesterday at 1875. Empire NJ. and
NJ. Co. receded from $ll0 to 81 so,
closed at l03 per share.
Imderial has been well maintained at
S97@9S. closing at 95 per share. Dnring
the first three weeks of August the re-
ceipts of bullion amounted to S4S.0 900,
and will probably aggregate $So $1,000 for
the entire month. The improvements in
the ore of the Alta mine noted for some
time past, now apply to that found in the
Holmes ground, which latter, it is thought,
is yielding some $50 per ton.
Overman receded from last quotations,
f~uctuating within a range Of S22 6o@l6,
and closed at II so. An assessment Of
Sl5 was levied on the Oath of August.
Confidence sold yesterday at S43. Bull
lion receded from $2S to "a so, closing at
$40.

ing to 70d, and selling yesterday at III.

der notes, etc., since Saturday, amounted
to S322,729 rs.
