 Bic Bua. Lewis Winning were in town da- ring the week To a conversation with Can Lewis, we learned the pleasing fact that heir last cleanup yielded over ten dollars a dav |, the hand. He and James Thomas own ihe old Mexican gulch. about one mile and half below Gray Cos mill. They employ siV men. They are now washing down the west side.hliI of in. galch. and had iacir best psy bsiou he cement The Pay-strcak is ebout thirty feet in width and the gravel is from three t0 -Four feet in t,.ith Close c. the bed rocA. and upgn it the dift is very rich. \ ps-cc weighing over ten d0llars was recently picked up by them Ii Is the opi. nion of Aessrs.

 party Of COloradaus were prospecting 'hg gaich that puts into tbc creek from the orth, below the Mexican gulch and Mr Lewis liomed us that. at thc time hc lefi tIcv were citing excellent prospects They had aorked lr0ugh the cement
 In ihc vicinity of the mill two or three com anics were ai work, with what success We could ot learn.

 WIxEa's DISTRICT Placer and quartz mining Te being caFTte,i oa lE iA!s district
 HAssATANPA DIsTacr-W Work in the shafts on be Chase lode is progressing. In consequence f the muddy condition of the roads. but little as bcru done towards removing the mill The laecr miners are not making much over cx- enses, as. on account of inc high water in the reeki they cannot n0w work their rich creek lsiHs
 The miners at work in the New Guloh. four iiles south Of Prescott, are, We have been told. iaking fair wages. Tbe diggings are spotted ometimes one company gets good pay and some mes another but, on an average, all hands iake from three to six dollars a day.
 H. A. Bigelow and c W. Barnard, tbe other ay, prOspected the bar upon which the slaugh- 'T-house stands, on the other side of the creek, [ the upper end of town, and Mr. Bigelow k of ie opinion that the whole bar would pay wages,
 properly worked. Some good prospects were ot by them in gravel taken from of the bed ,ek, and a little gold is found all thc way from ie surface to the ledge. Pieces weighing from nc cent 10 two bits have been found iu this bar. George LOunt has been working in a ravine 10vc town, for some time past, and, we are i ,rry to learn, has failed to make ii pungie. lie ' ill try another place which he thinks s richer Id where. we hope, he will get pay.
