The REPUDLIc MINE.-Through i'd
vices from Cornucopin, we gcnthcr the
following facts respecting the we'll
known Republic mine: The shaft up-
Oh which work was resumed n few
weeks ago, has attained depth of l2O
feet. Tho level from tho bottom of
tho shaft has cut tho vein, which is
three feet in thickness, and exhibits
an excellent quality OF ore, specimens
OF which, shown liz. contained liberal
quantities Of nntimoninl and ruby sill.
vcr. Another feature, always regarded
rs OF paramount importance among
mining men, Is that tho mineral IL in
perfectly pure quartz, similar 10 that
OF tho Leopard and Hussey, adjoining
which, on tho east, the mine Is located.
At depth OF fifty feet from surface,
nnoihct level has been started; the vein
Mt this point being of siinilinr width
as where found i'll the lower level.
The orc, Of which goodly quantities
nre now being brought to surface, is Of
excellent character, assaying from 500
to S2l2 10 the ton, and IL may safely be
estimated that all that is now being plac-
cd upon the dump will; by mill process,
yield MI average Of $lj0 per ton. We
were informed by Mr.. Cunningham,
superintendent Of tho mine, that mr.
engagements Ind been made with tho
Leopard Company TO havo large
quantity OF tho ore worked nj their
mill, which will add another to the list
of producing mines OF that important
district.
LEOPARD BvLLioS.--Thc Leonard
Company mndc another shipment Of
bullion from their mil in Oornucopia,
on Monday, consisting Of twelve bars,
and valued at $4,000. Tho supcranu.
Htcd idea that n Leopard can't change
its "spoIs" is now thoroughly exploded.
APPROPRIATED understand that
tho Board Of 1logonts has appropriated
tho sum Of $3.50, for tho purpose Of
furnishing tho dormiiory attached ia
tho State University, aud that Mrs.
Rood, tho present Mntron, ia authoriz,
TO select tho samo ut once.
PostroSEMENT.---As will 10 seen by Il
notice elsewhere Tho dry ON which The
assessment OH tho Alameda mine ut Cor
nuoopiH becomes delinquent has beer
postponed until September 9th.
