Iulture Taliiur..

Mir. Fred. Valentine, who returned this morning from the Santa Maria, informs us that he went by the way of Nickenburg for the purpose of trying the hugo pile of tail ingS which accumulated at that place during the sevcaal wears that the ore from the ia mamous Nulturc was being worked at that place Mir. Valentines test of these tail iugs k very hattering, and goes to show that ten thousand tons, or thercaboutS, of the richest tailingS, Is worth SS0 Co the ton, or the nice little sun of $SOO, GOO. In ad. iition. there is about loo, ,O00 tons of second. class tailings which will pay at least g. per ton, or total of $500, ,000, making the grand total of Sl S00OO0 that has been thrown over the screens and carried of in the sluicc- boxes, and virtually lost by the old company, who worked the Vulturc mine in a reckless manner. lt is the intention Of Mir. Valentine to experiment further, and if success attends his experiments, which arc to concentrate these rich tialings, he will locate himself at Wickenburg and put up the necessary apparatus with which to con Ccntrate and then reduce tle ~ Il are process. Nr Roscntbal. W sa aas lccn cN- pcrimenjiug oa these same Lauugs, and found them Co be equally as rich as stated by Mr. Valentine, but for want uf tuN with which to work them, has found it necessary to first concentrate them and then run the gold out through furnace. The different tests made ga to show that the Nulture com pany lost on all ores worked for several years about thirty per cent, and We believe that the company worked all the ores from the mine at a cost of from three to four dol lars per ton more than II could have been worked by iudicious management, and as the whole number of tons worked aggre- gated over 3000O0 they necessarily were out over $t 900, 900 by bad management, and then the loss of nearly Sl,500 0O0 in the uiliugs makes a shrnktge oi about S9 500, coo. We dO not thIuk { strange at all that the Nulture company were bankTupts after q steady run of six years.
