BuLLIoyvILLE.-The business portion
of Bullonyille has been looking up con-
siderab,y OF late owing 10 the fact of
the large number of men employed at
the two mills, the furnace and the con-
csutra.ion works. New boarding-houses.
Restaurants, bar-rooms and other
branches of business have been started,
all doing a thriving business. The only
set back to the place now Is the sickness
that has been prevailing there during
the intense warm weather, but as we are
getting over the cheated term" it will
again be in healthy state before long.
The furnace is not yet running; II is be-
ing r-liued and otherwise repaired while
awaiting supply of coal with which to
start. AS soon AS coal is on hand it will
commence work again and there will be
no more occasion TO shut down on that
score as the supply will be kept up con-
stantly.
BRISTOL DIsrRIcr.- From Erans
Wheeler, who returned from Bristol Dis
trict on Wednesday, We learn that tht
within hois,ipg.works Of the Mayaowei
mine are up and have commenced run
ming, WORKS we'll and hoist5 rapidly
The shaft is now down l35 feet; have
broken through boulder at the bottom
of the shaft and have struck ore which
assays from $40 to 5000 per ton. Tn,
ore-body is increasing in width rs deptt
is obtained; the prospects looking bette
as work progresses. Steady work is KEEP
up on the mine, day and night shift
being run.
By letter received from Picket Post
Arizona, We learn that that place is yer,
dull, owing to the celebrated King min
not having paid off its employees 70
seven months. This is caused by litiga
ton, of which the mine has considera
bic number on account of titles. Th
mine never looked better than it does Il
present. the ore being very rich, showing
plenty Of native silver. The Silver Bel
is also another rich mine in that distriot
but only o small amount OF work ha
been on it as yet--lack Of capital heip
the cause.
