In 1874 they were reconciled. Mr.. s. in

some two years ago and emigrated to tho
Silver State on prospecting tour bent.
He located in the vicinity OF Humboldt

glittering in golden fakes. He worked
energetically, and succeeded in running
a tunnel fifty feet on the vein, at the end
OF which he sunk q shaft twenty feet

HOW IT'S DONE IN COLORADO.

In looking over the Mining Review
Published at Denver. Colorado, one can
but be impressed with the wide dif-
ference in modes Of mining there and
that praoticsd 10 Nevada. There appears
to be that lack Of system in Colorado
which has been brought to such perfec-
ton in this State. There they have
grinding machines for reducing ore and
the stamp quartz mill is almost un-
known. Though that mineral section
has years the start Of Nevada not single
shaft has yet reached depth OF one
thousand feet-ths deepest being only
eight hundred and fifty. The whole
system Of mining in that Territory is SO
different from that on this Coast that
one might easily imagine that the Re-
view ives published in foreign land.
Tho lack IL fell Of that spirit that dares
attempt anything; that spirit that has
accomplished such wonderful things in
the way Of mining in this State. Even
Phoebe. isolated as It Is, has 10 the last
i've years made greater progress than
Colorado has done in all the
years since the Pixies Peak excitement.
As . sample Of the way they do 1t in that
Territory, Is told us by former promi-
nent citizen of this place. who was in
Denver for several months. We have but to
give an instance. They take out, say
one hundred tons Of ore, shut down the
mine, ship it East and have 1t worked
(the owner goes with it). get their re-
turns, have little time" ON the pro-
ceeds, and then return to the mine, start
her up once more, and in due course OF
time take out another batch " Of ore
and repeat the programme as related
above. This would look like child's play
in Nevada. yet we are assured II is the
rule in Colorado. The same informant
assured rs the ores were rich, II anything
richer than the general average in this
State, and II some one had charge OF
those mines who had been through the
mill" in Nevada wonderful revolu-
ton would be brought about in that min
Ing section. Some Of the mines have
reduction works on the ground. but are
certainly inferior to the mills of this
State. A field is open in Colorado for
mining men Of experience from Nevada.
In the matter OF deep mining the miners
OF that section are decidedly behind the
age, and some Of the appliances common
in this State would take away their
breath.
