Arizona silver belt., 1878-09-26

} It will be near the crown of the hill several hundred feet southwest of ths
 work heretofore done on the lode.
 The Rev. Mr. Mills. of Mill:
 Seminary. in Alemeda county, Cal,
 is having work done on the Aztec
 mine, which he owns. Some very fine
 chloride ore is being found.
 4 small working of ere from the
 Ready claim, near the Pinal lode,
 gave a mill return a few days ago of 1 S4S5 per ton. Another lot of ore will be worked as soon ss it iB ex- tracted
 A. c. Pendletou, U. S. Deputy l Mineral Surveyor, has just completed surveys of the Continental mine and mill-site for Seth Marshall, San Franclsco, with view of their being patented
 Itis reported here on good authority that three feet of ore was struck in the main shaft of the Stonewall Jack son mine, which assays e900 to the ton. The Company has also found large body of good pay ore in the breast of the tunnel, at distance of 600 feet from the main shaft. This virtually prospects the mine for dis tance of 900 feet.
 Yesterday we were shown & very fine specimen of silver ore taken out of the new shaft no8 being sunk on one of the Isabella group of locations, which will go at least a dollar to the pound The ore shown us comes from the Happy Jack mine, 16 feet from the surface. We are anxious to see the new mill completed, and have some of this Isabella ore turned into bullion sor the San Francisco market.
 Ne regret to learn that there is likely to be some legal trouble in connection with tho Silver Queen mine, which is owaed mainly by parties in Santa Rosa, Cal. IL ap- pears that Mr. Crane purchased a three fOurths interest in the Silver King lode and made a relocation of the ground. The remaining fourth interest was owned by Mir. Whalen, Rho nov lays claim to it. and says chat us be was Mr. Cranes partner t vas not possible to deprive him of hls rights by making a re-loestion aId changing the name of the lode We hope the matter will be settled amicably, as a district always suffers by legal proceedings being instituted.
 The Stonewall Jackson mlne is day ,,fter day increasing III promse and value. 4 drift has been carried along the foot wall for over 15O feet, and shows good ore wltb but feu breaks for the entire distsDce. At several points a width of three feet of $3 ,000 ore can be seen; and for 14 feet next the foot wall the ore is nearly all good. At last accounts, the crOss-cut vas over 50 feet into the vein without the hanging wall being in sight. The vein natter in this part of tue mine is too low in grade 10 pay at present but 1t yields bunches and atFe.iks of good ore which can be assorted out vitb profit. 4 winze 70 fees deep has been sunk below the 125-foot level. For twlS- thirds of the distance down the ors Was rich, but as the water-line st the bottom vas approached t lost its metal to 8 considerable extent-al thing quite common in most mines. The Company is about to run a tun- nel along the foot-Hall of the vein, which will be 600 feet in length. This will eiEectualIy cut existing ore-1 ckimneys that happen at least to come within 150 feet of the surface. Hoist:ng at the main shaft is done by ! whim. and all the mining work is apparently going on 10 good purpose.
