drift is beginning to look well. Great
expecta lions are INDUCED in, and there
is no doubt from the looks of the drifts
now that they will be realized. Mr.. Day
ton has charge during Superintendent
| Wilson's absence, aud is putting forth
his best efforts.
1vANHoE.-Depth of shaft, 275 feet,
vertical. 1t is confidently expected that
in 20 feet more the ledge will be struck,
which was left 70 feet above, where it
dips down the hill. MIR. Craigue, the
foreman, and first-class miner, states
that he has not within all his experience
seen any better mine, taking "a general
| prospect view, than the Ivanhoe. He
has worked the mine in tip-top order,
and everything around aud about it
looks healthy. The new working shaft
is now down l35 feet, and within the
past week fine ore has been struck Mr..
Duff. the Superintend-n has gone to
San Francisco TO purchase and attend to
the shipment of hosting machinery, and
thus add another to the great improve
ments already beiny made in this district.
| PEAvINE.-Ihis mine has improved
| greatly within the last two weeks. The
drift at first level (S5 feet DOWN carries
ore the entire distance, assaying as high
MS $3.50 to the ton. The drift at the I'd
level (l25 from the surface) begins to
look well. and i'll few feet more will no
doubt strike the ledge that shows in the
upper drift. Over 100 tons of good ore
is on the dump, aud Mr.. Dayton, the
Superintend, mt: is sanguine of an i'm
mense strike before many days.
PACIFIC TUSNEL. This Tunnel is
now 9So feet i'll length. Mr. S. r.
Nichols, the Superintendent, is pushing
the work as rapidly as possible, but the
| rock lii the face of the tunnel is very
hard at present, which will probably
take two or three days to get through,
when, it is thought II large vein will De
struck that will help the stock of the
company very materially.
ARKANsAs.-The ore in the east and
| west drifts, at the 250-feet level, con-
times the same. The Superintendent is
still sinking the incline on the ledge,
which Improves in appearance daily.
Milling facilities are needed for this
mime, which is now yielding ore enough
to employ ten stamps; and 1t is u,atter

The Shaft has now reached IL depth of
