THE MINES.

Our stock report indicates a gen.
eral rise throughout the district. 1t
is plain to be seen that better feel
ing exists. Work is being done on
all the mines; number of new in
corporations have been made, and
some ground that has long lain idle
will be worked. We give a partial
report of progress:
Dayton.-The ore breasts south,
on the second station level, are
yielding finely. The turn-table
slopes on the third station level are
also improving in the quality of the
ore extracted. A drift running south
on the ore vein toward the Kossuth
line has penetrated the ore body a
distance of 100 feet, at which point a
crosscut has been made which shows
the ore body to be "a feet in width,
and of a much richer character than
that opened at the turn-table slopes.
The southwest drift on the second
station is still pushed steadily ahead
toward the Kossuth line, following
the west casing of the ledge. Two
crosscuts have been made from the
north drift on the second station
level near the Cherokee line, one
east and the other west. which show
the ledge to be 20 feet in width with
out yet reaching the west clay wall.
The daily yield is 70 tons of ore,
keeping the Woodwork mill fully
employed.
notwithstanding the main shaft
is making the usual good progress.
Sinking the Wine from the south
drift, on the 200 foot level, is also
making fine Roadway. Nothing new
to report of the other prospecting
operations on that level.
Daney.-The main west drift on
the 4OO-foot level is still driven Wig
.orously ahead through the ledge,
with very promising prospects of
some good ore developments.
Niagara.-The shaft is down about
rs feet, and is being wrought upon
might and day. They have a ledge
about two and half feet thick and
the rock looks fine.

DIED. = 1t appears that James
Blythe was native of England, aged
about 40 years, and died on the 18th
inst. from exposure and intemper-
ance. Some six weeks or two months
ago he sold his pack train for con-
siderable sum of money, then went
on a spree, and has continued dt up
to the time of his death, which took
place at Fiddler's Green, about SIX
miles from Dayton, on the day
named.

WEARY OF LIFE.-Last Monday
night nymph du pare, known as
"Russian Sophy," attempted suicide,
on d street, by taking laudanum.
She was abandoned i'll San Francis
co by Russian nobleman, on his
way to Australia. She came here
soon after, and has led the life of a
courtezan ever since. She wrote a
letter to sister in misery, stating
that she was tired of the life she was
leading, and finding no other way
out of it, had resolved to try death.
She was found near the banks of the
dark waters, but restoratives were
administered, and she was brought
back to consciousness and life.-In-
