Mineral Hill and Vicinity.

ms mining camp is improving;
and should it continue at its present
pace, will soon be able to retrieve the
reputation it had a couple of years
ago. The Mineral Hill Silver Mines
Company are continuing vigorously
the workings of their mines, and at
present employ sixty men. Since the
property came into the possession of
TINS company they have shipped bull
Hon TO h extent of 81, 072, 900 in
value. The product for the last wear
has been $780,, 900. The Atwood mill
IS Kept constantly in operation upon
ore rom the Hill, and reduces from
niteen to twenty tons per day.
The Taylor mill, which was com.
pleted q year ago last October, has
oeen IDLE for some time. in conse-
quence OF a falling off in the ore pro-
duct of the mines. This structure was
erected and equipped at a cost of
about Sl35, 900, and Is now offered for
sale by the company. 1t is nearly
new, has twenty stamps, nine ANAL
yamating pans and settlers, and a
large engine from the Booth Iron
works, San Francisco. 1t contains
also a large Stetefeldt furnace for
chloridizing, which OF course would
be of no value to the purchaser who
desired to move the building. The
Stetefeldt furnace has been abandoned
in the Atwood mill, by Mr.. Cakes,
the Superintendent, after having been
used over two years. 1t was aScer-
tanned from experiment that as high
q percentage could be got OH the assay
by putting the raw pulpinto the pans,
thus saving the hire of four or five
men and the expense of fuel, which
was considerable. Eighty odd per
cent. of the silver is got from the ore
by this process.
The Spencer and Austin mines, prin-
cipally owned and managed by the
Piummer brothers, are giving en-
plOyment to six or eight men, and
are producing some good ore. The
development Of these mines is retard-
ed by the owners not having a mill by
which to work their ore, the other
company charging as high as thirty
five dollars per ton for custom work.
HARDsCRABBLE DISTRICT
Is situated about five and a half miles
eastward from Mineral Hill, and was
discovered last April, by DR.. Hanson
and H.. +. Anderson, who are n
in the Clarendon mine, the first dis
covered in the district. This claim is
in slate formation, has regularly de-
fined walls, and shows a fine body Of
ore. "A tunnel has been driven sixty
feet, from the extreme point of which
it is forty feet to the surface. From
several assays the value of the ore is
ascertained to be 500 per ton, and Oft
character to be amalgamated, al
though the ore ofthe district generally
is plumbiferous, and in a limestone
formation. The discoveries are all
made near the base of a mountain.
The Waverly mine is of some promise,
so far as explored, and yields ore
which assays thirty dollars per ton.
The further development of this loca-
ton is being pushed on with spirit.
The Stars and Stripes claim is looking
well, and also being worked vigorous
ly. The MaricOpa location is owned
principally in Eureka, and is working
three men. The vein matter assays
thirty dollars per ton. Mr.. Hadley is
the Sunerinteutant.

The BABCoCK FIRE EXTINGUIsHER.
PR. Wilton received yesterday from

pne of these fire eXtingulshers, and in
Fle afternoon a practical test was
Pnade on Main street. We did not see
me effect it made toward eX tinguish-
pns the flames, but the merit OF these
machines Is now pretty we'll conceded
everywhere they have been intro
|duced. The pl IN is. that when a
stopper Is removed from a bottle in
stae, and at the top OF a cylindrical
SNAPPED metallic vessel, by a piston
rod passing through the top, which
screws ON, the bottle is decanted, and
lis contents falls to the bottom OF the
vessel. We don't know what the
poule Is calculated to contain,
out suppose it to be filled with
sulphuric acid, and that a gu IN
IVY OF pulveriZed marble is in the bot
ION; When the bottle is tipped and the
aclu comes in contact with the marble,
car6onic acid gas is formed instantly,
anu IN large quantities. A rubber
pipe then, with a S%tOp-cock, attached
W. me machine, makes the gas effect
VEN putting out fire, as it is an an
sasohlst to combustion. We do not
Ahow that this is the exact way in

JEFF DAVIS PROVES A BAD BUsI-
NESS SPECULATION.- Some weeks since
the policy holders in the Carolina life in
surance company, of which Mr.. Jefferson
Davis was president. were advised that the
assets and obligations of that corporation
had been transferred to the Southern life
insurance company, of Memphis. 1t tnow
appears that the Carolina company had
met with heavy losses, and that its sol
yency was seriously doubted. Mr.
Davis, who was elected to the presidency
merely on account Of his supposed popu-
larity in the south and the prestige Of his
name, proved burden too heavy for the
company to carry, and the directors in
order to protect the interests Of the policy
holders and save the corporation from
utter ruin, determined to get rid of him.
Without consulting the president and while
he was absent from Memphis, they voted
him out of office and transferred the
business of the concern to another com
pany.
