Our Present Outlook.

A stranger visiting Hamilton Just now
vouId pronounce it very dull place. Tor
the reason that he sees very few people
here. and these few are principally snop.
keepers and business men. But could
tbs visitor know the number Of men that
are delving in our mines. he would soon
divine the cause of our sparseiy popala.
ted town. At no time during the past
three years has there been 80 many men
EMPLOYED at mining in this district as at
present, nor has the general mining out
look been more favorable. The Eber-
hardt Company have increased their or.
binary force Of miners by twenty, and
when tho machinery for the tunnel A.
riyes. and is ready for erection. not less
than twenty men more will be employed.
The company have never carried on
moro extensive mining operations than
at present, and never received better re-
muneration therefor.
Since chloriders have found that they
can get their ores honestly worked, II
has given . new impulse to this charac-
ter Of mining, and number OF men are
now employed in that business, and Will,

properties that were heretofore supposed
70 be worthless and abandoned. Chic
riding is not entirely new feature OF
mining in this district. but has not been
followed for few years Tor the reason
that no milling facilities were to be o.
tanned to crush their ores, but recently
tho Eberhardt Company has in great
measure obviated this difficulty. and has
worked the ores as IN accommodation to
the chloriders, All the chloriders on
Treasure Hill are doing exceedingly well,
as will be seen by the following: com.
PAW of three men have just had worked
at the Eberhardt mill one hundred tons
of second-class ore that milled $50 pei
ton. and twenty tons Of frst-class ore
viii h averaged $500 per ton. Two OF
three other companies have had ore
worked that yielded cutie as we'll as thf
above.
Grand results are anticipated from TIE
piercing of Treasure Hill by two tunnels
being run through the mountain, one OF
which Major Eenrys is already III sue

now running an open cut preparatory &c

Colonel James G.. Fair and the County
