WurrE PINE DIsrRIcT.-W. 7. Lock-
hart, Esq, the Register Of the Carson
Land Office, arrived from White Pine
District last Saturday, and came up to
Gold Hill this morning, bringing with
him quite n number Of specimens OF rich
| silver ore, which he brought in from
White Pine. We examined them, and
Judge them to be very rich-from $500
to $4,000 per ton in silver. Mr.. Lock-
hart SAYS that the mines have been
prospected owe a surface OF three or
lour miles, and believes the district to
be very rich but many of the claims
have three or four layers Of claimants
to them, which bids fair to cause a
great deal Of litigation and delay in de-
veloping the mines. Three towns are
being built I'M the district.

there not being tirst-rate just at present.
