pal ledge IN the district, at least the one
i'll the most advanced stage OF develop
ment, is the Hickory On this ledge
a shaft has been sunk to the depth of
one hundred and thirty-tive feet. 1t was
sunk on the ledge for some distance,
and then a perpendicular shaft sunk, /
from the bottom of which they are now
drifting to strike the ledge. So far as
prospected the lode shows "A body of ore
from four to nine feet wide, OF good I
milling quality, and rich in silver. A |
ten stamp mill is now on the way from
Chicago, belonging to the company who |
own the Hickory mine, and it is conf
deutly believed that its advent will be
the commencement of u brilliant future
for Star district The Hickory is situated
in what is known as North Star-Star lis
triet being subdivided into North. South
and Middle Star, and West Camp. South
Star was the first portion of the district
discovered, and contains great many
lodges more or less developed. The ore
is generally very rich. In North Star
there are also q large number of loca-
tions, some of them of very
promising character, but the main
mine of that section is undoubt-
eddy the Hickory. In Middle and
West camp the veins appear to be larger
and better defined than elsewhere, and
it is not impossible that further develop
ments will prove them to be the main
mines of the camp. Many think SO now.
Lincoln District, five miles from Miners
vile, about which there was considerable
excitement two years ago, is now unten-
anted by solitary miner, though there
is no doubt that there are some very val
liable mines in the district. Litigation,
that curse of mining camps, has had
much to do with producing this state of
affairs. Minersville. Mr.. Williams tells
us, holds its own, and is quite thriving
place. Our old fellow townsman, j. II.
DupaiX, is located there, and between
farming and selling goods, is making a
handsome thing of it. A large breadth
of land is being sown to grain this season
in the vicinity.
The Grand Jury re-assembled at one
O'Clock yesterday to commence in earnest
the great work before them. They were
called in by Judge Fuller for further iu-
structions, after which they retired to
their chamber. The duties devolving
upon the present body are quite onerous.
They have one case of murder, and will
probably have another in few days; if
not, then four cases of assault with a
deadly weapon with intent to commit
murder, besides eight or ten other cases
involving the interests of society and the
liberties of citizens. 1t is probable, also,
that several cases of nuisance will be
brought to the attention of the Grand
Jury. These cases, with an inquiry into
county affairs, will probably prolong the
session of the Grand Jury through some
weeks.
