the effect that some very good orc was
found yesterday in. the drift. north from
that level, but not much OF il is to be
taken out i present owing to bad air.
Il is said TO assay about SEQ per ton,
but how small or how large q body OF j!

large body Of lower grade ore exists a,
tho 4O0-foot level, which breasts out co

morning showed $40 TO the ton. The
yield Of the mine is increased to 60 tons
per day, averaging about $50 per ton

SIERRA NEVADA.
The cleanup on the 3lst turned out
very well, but as it vas shipped to San
Francisco, and no returns are received
from IL yet, we cannot give the figures.
A drift west in the surface workings de-
velopes a largo quantity ofexcellent ore,
well s~prinkled with free gold, which is
being milled at present. Another good
streak Of pay ore is also found in the
upper tunnel, three feet in width. and
widening. Both mino and mill are be-
ing run at considerably reduced expense,
and the usual monthly dividend will be
declared uext Monday or Tuesday.
cHoLLAR-PoTosI.
This valuable mine still continues
looking and yielding well, about 22e
tons Of ore per day being taken out,
principally from the Blue Wing 'eelion
Assays averaging nearly SO per ton.
The Grass Valley and New Tunnel Sec
lions yield about alike, although some
ore recently encountered at the northern
part Of tho latter section averages con-
siderably better than from any, o.nss
,ortion of the mine. A dividend OF 81
per share wa, declared day before yes
tcrday, payable next Monday.
OCCIDENTAL.
The face of tho lower tunnel is I'M
doubtedly in the west casing OF the
ledge, which it has penetrated to the e1-
tent of over 30 feet, yet, as the tunnel Is
being run at an angle Of about 20 DO
urees, or comparatively parallel with
the lodge, il has not in reality psnetra-
ted more than eleven or twelve feet d.
reetly towards the ledge from the cas-
Ing. I, is gradually approaching 1t,
however, and a very few days will tell
the story now.
IMPERlAL-gNPlRR.
The repairs to tho shaft are completed
down to the l,0s0-foot station, and
drifting southwark for the good body oil
orc supposed to exist in the Holmes
ground will DO resumed on Monday next.
The station timbers were found to have
been carried down by tho cave, but
they have been replaced. The shaft IS
moi, thought to be much injured below
The station.
GOULD 4 CURRY.
Tho old upper workings are yielding
nm average of nearly 10 tons OF ore per
day, averaging S3s per ton. The drill
east through the ledge at the seventh
station is now in nearly so feet from thu
station, with nothing but black porphyry
and clay encountered as yet.

This valuable little mine, at SilIe'
CITY, principally owned by s. A. Cna'
MIN ESQ, yields about $4,000 pei

There remains yet about l6 feet o.
mud and water to get out Of the north
shaft before getting down to the track
floor of the 7oo-foot level. Considera'
BILE increase OF water, however, is en-
countered, making progress necessarily
slow.
