HILLYER & CO.'S WEEKLY STOCK
CIRCULAR.
Mining Share Market.

DAN FRANCISCO, MhTCu 90, iooi'
The mining share market has been
buoyant this week, and with scarce an
exception, all stocks were sought for at
higher figures. The shear" influence
seems to have spent its force, without
being able to resist the upward tendency
o fprices. The developments made with
in the past few months in different mines
have given q new lease of life to nearly
every portion of the Comstock lode, and
if at still greater depths large bodies of
ore continue to be found, an active spec
ulation is likely to take place the ensu-
ing spring. Many we'll informed persons
are of the opinion that the future pros
poets of several claims were never as
fattering as at present, and that during
the summer months larger dividends
may be confidently anticipated.
Hale l. Norcross continues to be firmly
held, and there is some inquiry for it at
q considerable advance from our last
quotations. We learn that FIVE shares
were sold privately early in the week at
So, $50 per foot. This company is in a
| very prosperous condition, and its future
thought to be no less fatteripg. One
year z last December this stock was
sold as low as $40 per foot.
Savage has been in better favor since
| our last reference, opening at 81 $3.50
1880, advancing to l,945@l,975, then
| selling at 1850, seller 80, and at the
close 1850 is bid. The ore extracted
from the mine during the week ending
March 10th amounted to 9o2 tons, show
ing an assay value of $2s, sl6-equal to
S33.O5 per ton. Of this amount 554
tons came from the sixth and seventh
stations, and 1927 tons from the Curtis
shaft, from points which it is thought
| might become inaccessible in q very
| short time. We are informed that the
south winze, Curtis shaft, is still in
| good ore, and has now acquired sufi-
| cient depth to connect with the 7s0-foot
level of the Hale & Norcross company.
Crown Point has also advanced dur
ing the period under review, rising from
SS25 to 900 and 925, and at the close
| selling at 9O5. Mail dates to the 18th
instant say that the east drift from the
5O0-foot station is in 81 feet, and the
west drift 20 feet. Sinking toward the
| sixth station will be commenced about
the first Of next month. During the
week ending March 18th, 1876 tons Of ore
| were raised from the mine. Nothing of
any special importance, it is said, has
been developed recently, n~otwithstand-
ing a considerable force has been en-
| ployed in prospecting.
Yellow Jacket sold at irregular prices,
Jumping from $50 to s45 and $50, drop
| ping to S25@Sl0, rallying to $40, and
closing at 1928. We have been unable
to obtain any information in regard to
| the condition of this mine since our last
issue.
Gould & Curry advanced from S465
to S4906495, then sold at $5o7 so, and
closed yesterday at $50. This COM
pany is still drifting south on the fifth
station, apparently meeting with no sue
| cess in finding ore. The mill has been
| idle for SOME time on account Of the bad
condition of the roads, which have pre-
vented a supply being brought to hand.
This mine, it is thought, will fully pro-
| duce the amount of ore estimated to be
in reserve by the Superintendent in his
annual report last December. From
December /, to November 80, 1866, co.
AT tons Of ore were reduced-an aver
age of $500 tons per month.
Chollar- Potosi continues active at en-
HANGED rates from closing sales of last
week, improving from S24s to $3.50, and
closing yesterday at S249.
Imperial sold to a considerable ex-
| tent during the past week, rapidly ad-
~vancing from 1920 to S247 80, receding
to $225, aud closing at $3.50. The first
| clean up of this month shows q bullion
| yield of nearly SIS, 900.
Ophir improved from $3.50, buyer 30,
to SPAS, buyer 80, and closed at $23s.
| We have nothing special to mention in
| regard to this mine since our last re-
port.
EXPIRE has been quite actively dealt
in at an advance, improving from $l7o,
seller 80, to 1913, then realizing 1877 so,
closing yesterday at 1856. Late informa-
ton from this company's mine is Of a
very satisfactory nature, and o more
than ordinary yield Of bullion during
the month Of March may be safely pre-
dicted.
Belcher improved from $l07, seller
30, to 100, and closed yesterday at
1872 so.
Confidence advanced from 500 to SO,
assessment delinquency and at the close
