place in the general appearance of the
mines. The Raymond & Ely pump still
continues giving satisfaction, working at
the same stroke it has been doing for .
few weeks past. The work on the
Meadow Valley mine continues the same
without any change. In the Alps mine
they have commenced sinking on the
white quartz vein containing gold, with
very fattering prospects. The mill Of
the company run regularly night and day
most Of the past week. producing bullion
at fair rate. The Phoebe and.American

Flag mill is turning out fair supply OF
bullion. The Newark mill continues
running on custom ore. Ore trains
are now running more regular, convey
ing about seventy tons Of ore daily to
Ballionville. Phoebe stocks have shown
very little depreciation during the recent

indicates that the faith in the future Of
