quartz and ledge matter being encoun-
tered. At the distance of $50 feet east
of the shaft, q solid vein Of white quartz
was passed through, but It was entirely
barren Of the precious metals. It 10 a
very promising looking vein, and might
pay at a greater depth. The Grown
Point shaft is too far west, however, for
deeper sinking. This company aad the
Kentuck, next north, should combine in
sinking a join. shaft at some convenient
point considerably further east. It
would only cost some So or $40 per
share, and would prove OF vast impor-
TANGO aud economy to both companies.
The sooner they do this the better.
INPE~RIAL-HNPiRE.
The cave and consequent filing up OF
this shaft TO above the l, l00-fsot station
set back the work over four months, at
least. The shaft 10 now cleaned out and
Thoroughly repaired to within 20 feet Of
the bottom--which is LIES feet from
the surface. Sinking deeper will be
resumed in about a week. The south
drift at the l,l00. foot level, towards the
Holmes ground was worse cavsd, and
required more r%etimbering, than was
anticipated; therefore it will be i've or
six days yet before drifting can be
resumed. The cast drift from the shaft
at the game level is in 1872 feet. The
old upper levels of the Imperial yield
about 45 tons of ore per per day. The
receipts for September aggregated Sl4,-
636 90. No ore is being extracted from
the Empire.
LADY BRyAN.
The new strike in this mine, men
toned in our last report, made in a
'cross-cut at the end of the south drift
is still looking exceedingly well, and
the indications ahead are excellent for
the development of a very large body Of
rich ore. This new mill 10 sseadily rum
ming on ore from the mine, and the
present months receipts are expected
TO be much better than usual.
sAvAGR.
Sinking the main shaft deeper is pro-
crossing all right. The face OF the
south drift at the 9th level has reached
within 10 feet Of the Hale & Norcross
north line, aud is 10 hard, barren quartz.
The yield of the niue is not heavy at
present /; $50 tons Of ore extracted and
worked last week yielded SIG per ton,
mourning a loss Of $1,000 on the weeks
work.
GOULD & URRY.
About 40 tons Of ore, assaying $40
perton is the daily yield, principally from
the old north mine. The Last Chance
stope is worked out. The south drift,
at the 7th level, is 10 l47 feet, the face
showing only porphyry and clay. The
north drift is "a feet in length, and is in
hard porphyry neither drift shows en-
couraging indications.
cHoLLAR.PoTosI.
The yield Of this mine is about l25
tons per day, showing somewhat Of a
falling off. The old Blue Wing section
is not looking or yielding so well. The
buildings over the new shaft are now
completed, and the engine will be ready
for hosting inside Of two weeks.
ovERMAN.
Quite an advance in the stock OF this
mine vas observable during the past
week, yet it was merely through brokers'
manipulation, and not from any new
and rich development in the mine itself.
JULIA.
The Julia Gold and Silver Mining
Company levied an assessment on the
18th instant. of fifty cents q share on
the capital stock, amounting to $4,000,
delinquent on the 18th of November.
BELcuER.
Nothing particularly new or impor.
tant developed, except the assessment
Of So so per Share, aggregating $780,
900, levied last Thursday, and dslin-
quent November ed.
YELLOW JACKET.
The face Of the north drift at the 300
foot level shows considerable improve
ment; otherwise we have nothing par
ticularly new since our last report.
VIRGINIA CONSOLIDATED.
New shaft, 367 feet deep, and sinking
progressing at a satisfactory rate, the
rock being easy to work, and but little
water yet encountered.
KEyTUCK.
About l25 tons per day is the present
yield, all from above the S00.foot level.
