 THE vANpERBlLr Had been pierced by a shaft to depth of more than 5o feet, and ore from t has assaycd from $3OO to S1dO per tun in gold and silver.

 THE FIVE FORKS Lode stands erect in the ground IS do It's mill tary owuets-Major Pond, Lieutenant Fleming S Coon top of the ground. We found in it shaft ot about 20 feet, from which about h tons of what appeared to be good milling ore was in sight,
 Near by, on small stream of water, Mcssrs Fec x Co. expect to erect furnace, or furnaces, tO work the ore from their several mines They had adobes machinery, etc, aud were very eager 10 give some person possessed of means or min ing knowledge a good lay out" in their mines.
 THE CHAMPION Is one of the best defined, most compact lodcs seen by Us in our rambes. Upon ita good deal ol work had been done. lt averages four feet in thickness, and sits, or stands, very erect between tale walls. It crops out above ground for great distance. Fec & Co. own it.

 Not far from Cerbat are a great many veins | Hufal E d, sNg n They were, however, very highly spoken of Among them are the Merrmac, Bob Tail and Norfolk, belonging to the Walkalip Company :; the Homestead, Hunki-dore, Livingstone and ex eelsior belonging to Lane, Thompson X Co; the | Hamburg and Prince Bill, belonging to Ralph < ! Co., and the Amazon and Plutarch, belonging 10 Gatewood, Miller X Co. MINERAL PARK | We visited Mineral Park and several of the mines near by The Park is about five miles north from Cerbat, and Is destined 10 become the | metropolis Of the district. THE KEYSTONE | Lode was shown us first, and pleased us most. IL appears to be the mother vein of this section, IL | crops out boldly for long distance aud, on the surface Is very thick. Two shafts, one 45 and the other 25 or S0 feet from the surface, have been ! driven in the vein, at either of which the ledge | at it's narrowest, is about four and one-haf feet ! thick. Then there is q cut in which not more l than one-half of the ore Is compressed-the vein ] being Of great width at this point. All the ore | that had been extracted, up to the time of our 1 visit, was what may he termed rich sulphuret ore, with occasionally, free silver and gold, the choic | est specimens of which have astonished San Fran ] cisco asSayers. The mine Is owned by the Key, | stone Company, who have shipped considerable quantities of the ore. Water, of good quality, was abundant in the deeper shaft. THE STARK AND EWING | Lode Is another promising national bank, of i'm. mcnse size, on looking into the safe Of which cho ride horn silver, native silver and free gold were observed, scattered pretty plentfully throughout | the vein matter. When we were there the owners | -Messrs Stark x EwiDg-were sinking through ! the country rock, near by the metal, which they soon expected to strike. THE FAIRFIELD 1 Lode-Beuuett S Co.,, owners-is about fec, l thick and of undoubted richness. The ore is of the class known as free sulphuret. The owners l were hard at work sinking, THE MATFLowER l Had n shaft 20 feet deep. The lode is about 8 | feet thick, and rich in silver and gold Messrs | Saunders & Ridenour, who own this treasure in 1 formed us that some Of their ore had assayed us | high as sl2,6O0,
 THE SETTING SUN LODE i Belonging to the Walkalip Company, was being 1 prospected by an open cut in which the body of l ore was at least four feet thick. This, too, at depth of twelve feet from the surface. The ore is free milling;" and pieces or it have assayed $500 in gold and silver The walkalip Compa- ny own this pretty thing, too.
 THE WASHINGTON Lode had a shaft on It, eight feet in depth, the bottom of which looked very encouraging. It is owned by the Keystone Company.
 THE ALABAMA
 Was prospected very slightly The orc is carbon. | ate. The Nalkalip Company have the pleasure of Hopping their lips" over this, too. THE RICHMOND
 is a large carbonate lode, carrying 42 per cent lead and ljO ozs of silver to the ton. 1t is also, Waikalip property.
 THE PUTNAM,
 Owned by Bennett dS Co.,, had a shaft ten feet in depth out of which considerable good milling ore had been raised.
 THE TELEGRAPH
 Was next visited. IL is a large ledge of free mill. ing ore, with some chloride. The south side of the vein had been unveiled and showed well, with the exception that it's dip was a little more than we would like to see in a vein of ours
 By running little, over the hills, we soon caught up with the Atrim-looklng three feet vein, yielding milling ore, some of which had assayed $500 per ton IT. had ten feet shalt, the work of Perot (S Co.,, who own the mine.
 LONE STAR. Q Thanking our stars that night was coming on Tor we were growing tired and dry" we soon ' ran aioul oi the Lone Star, which blinked at us rom the bottom Of a thirty feet shaft, at which , depth the "pay-streak" was three feet thick, and l rich The ore is of pretty blue variety, and the lode looks quite promising, although it's owners W. r. Grounds & Co.,, started in on a slim chance which goes to show that small and modest surface developments MAynnrNstEa
