office, Virginia, this morning, we met
Mr.. Martin Cooney, proprietor of the
DC Gates Station, on the Overland
road, some IL miles from the city. and
he gave us some nor items relative to
his recent discovery of n ledge of gold
bearing quartz near the Station. of
which We had an item in Yesterdays
NEWS. The ledge is situated IN the
hills some three miles northwarl from
the Station, and was discovered about
two weeks ago. 1t runs north aud
south. dips to the west. Is about six
feet wide, well defined and easily
traceable on the surface for over l.2J0
feet. The rock bears Il strong rcSem-
blance to some of the ore from the
base metal range at White Pine, being
of q Sreenish east, with spots and
Streaks of blue. evidently containing
anthony and silver, rs Well rs gold.
There is also considerable of the red

came from the ledge. Mr.. Cooney ms
already contracted to have hauled To
Seser's mill, NJ the mouth of SiX-milc
CANYON. for reduction. The ore assays
a small percentage in silver. and what
little antimony and copper there is in
IL ought not to interfere materially III
it, easy working. The rock is of u
soft nature and easily mined or
crushed. If il yields aS well rs il
promises, the mine is fortune. There
are several other promising hedges in
the vicinity not yet proSpected, but
they, too, will be brought into notice
in case the first discovery turns ont
well. Water is convenient 10 the
mines; also plenty of wood, prjEct-
pally cedar, and about ! mile farther
north indications are excellent for Il
good coal deposit, which may yet be
developed as valuable property. 1t
will bc recollected that Il few days ago
we made special mention of silver
mines discovered just north ot Stock
ton Station, some ten miles farther
east, or - miles from Virginia, which.
rs we'll as this still later discovery. are
creating quite Il stir in that direction.
We like to record all Such new evil
dences of the true value of this SagS
brush country. especially in portions
which 4 few years ago were not . N
sidered worth much. There i \ large
extent OF just such country between
here and White Pine.

MANAGEMENT OF MINISG COMPANIES.
The Alta of yesterday. in its financial
column. has some very pertinent re-
marks relative to the regulation Of
mining companies in California, apply
ING very appropriately in some points
as we'll to the mining companies OF
this State and elsewhere. II reads Is
follows: "The resolution OF the Board
of Brokers recently published. in re-
lation TO a law for the regulation OF
mining companies, would apply to
those institutions chartered 10y this
State, and that include, wcth;nS, most
