Important Negotiation.

A meeting of parties interested
in the Albion locations on Ruby
Hill, was held at the Jackson House
yesterday. at which time a conference
was had with a number of mining
magnstes from San Francisco. An
agreement looking to the incorpora-
ton of the claims was entered into.
but the preliminaries had not been all
arranged last evening, but will proba-
hly be concluded to-day. The terms,
we understand, are substantially the
same AS published in the SENTINEL
some two weeks since. We consider
the consummation of the above as one
of the most important transactions in
mining circles that could take place,
and are satisfied hat the new owners
have acquired some of the very best
ground in this district.

EUREKA CONSOLIDATED,

Following is the official letter of the
Superintendent to the Secretary in San
Francisco:
w. w. T~RAYLoR, Secretary: Mining
operations have progressed rapidly in
extension of drifts, wines, etc., dur
ing the week, followed by very favor
able results in most of the prospecting
drifts.
On the fifth level stopping out ore has
continued, with no other work to re-
port for this level.
Seventh level-Ore body has yielded
well during the week. Started Wine
from ore body and sunk Is feet in ore.
West drift No. | advanced Ia feet, and
now in 100 feet, with very favorable
indications OF ore coming in. East
drift made II feet, and o running
l43 feet, with low-grade ore, but show
ing much improvement in character
during the past few days.
Eighth level-Ore body has yielded
largely and is looking first rate. East
drift running from ore chamber con-
tinued 38 feet, and now in 20 feet. AT
55 feet from ore chamber struck into
another body of ore and have pene-
trated the same for Is feet. The ore is
first rate quality and very favorable
prospects of developing largely.
Ninth level-East drift from main
crosscut made 26 feet, and now in 76
feet, with ground looking very fsvora-
BILE for ore. Have been placing ma
chinery, etc., at station for continuing
incline Wine and will have same al
ready for operations in a day or two,
when / will commence sinking again.
Tenth level East drift advanced 90
feet, and now in 40 feet. Drifting in
good ore.
Eleventh level-Nortb crosscut made
IA feet, and now in "a feet, with very
favorable indications of ore coming in.
Main southeast drift made2 % feet, and
now in 80 feet. Drift in quartzite.
Ore bodies on tenth and eleventh
levels are looking tirstrate and con-
tinue to yield largely of good ore.
Yours truly, IL. DoNNELLY, Supt.

OUR FUTURE.

The transactions in Eureka CONSOLE
dated, Phenix, Jackson and Hamburg
shares at the San Francisco stock
boards, aggregate a very important
portion of the business done. Eureka
district is at the present time attracting
the attention Of spectators, who are
transferring their operations from other
localities to the Base Range. This
prove of great benefit to us. A TWEEN
tieth part of the coin expended on the
Comstock in the last ten years in holes
in the ground, that never produced M
pound of ore, would have made this
section the richest bullion producer on
the face of the earth. Outside of the
great lode that extends for over five
miles, and which has never failed to
yield in any portion, where work has
been done-we have a mountain of ore
at our very doors. Old Prospect liter
ally teens with rich deposits, and al
though only scratched on the surface,
is one of the most productive spots on
the coast. The deepest shaft on
the mountain is only down 300 feet,
and is in ore at that point. Every one
at all familiar with the mountain are
firm believers in its wonderful wealth
and resources, and predict that it will
yet astonish the world. Beside these
we have the outlying mines at Secret
Canyon, Silverado. Spring Valley,
Adams and Bullwhacker Hill, all of
which are contiguous to and tributary
to Eureka. There certainly is every
thing to encourage, and nothing to
cloud our futurity, and it is only a
matter Of time when we will TAXI rank
as the great silver producing region of
the world. The moment that capital
becomes enlisted in developing the
hidden wealth of the district, that mo-
ment will witness a progress that will
surprise us all. In referring to the EN-
ployment of capital, we can point to
one remarkable circumstance. There
has yet to be recorded the failure of a
single company that has invested
money in mines in this district. All
have met with fair returns, and in a
great many instances their locations
have yielded a thousand fold beyond
the original outlay. There is plenty of
for more, and those who have
the wisdom and foresight to acquire
claims at the present time will reap the
advantage.

The questions propounded by "con-
slant readers and cold subscribers"
are always easy. We received a note
yesterday, in which a modest gentle
man asked us to tell switch of the two
countries, England or Russia, had done
most for the al vancement of civiliZa-
tor and christianity; pr, would there
have been any United States of Amer
lea had the Pilgrim Fathers come from
Russia instead of England?" That
second m was a staggerer. We de
voted Sunday to an exhaustive exami-
nation of Appleton's C~yclopadia.
Hoyle, Mark Twain's Innocents
Abroad, and Copp's Mining Laws
that is the extent Of our library-out
strange to say none of those volumes
threw any light on the subject. AL
though 10th to admit our ignorance,
we are compelled to state to "Anxious
Inquirer" that we give it up.

An Astonishing Fact.

A large proportion of the American people
are to-day dying from the effects of dyspepsia
or disordered liver. The result of these di-
seases upon the masses of intelligent and val
liable PEG pie is most alarming. making life
actually a burden instead of a pleasant exist
ence of enjoyment and usefulness, as it ought
to be. There is no good reason for this, If
yen will only throw aside prejudice and skep-
ticism, take the advice of druggists and your
friends, and try one bottle OF "Green's August
Flower" Your speedy relief is certain.
Millions of bottles of this medicine lave been
given away to try its virtues, with ~satisfac-
tory results in every case. You can buy a
sample bottle for ten cents, to try. Three
doses will relieve the worst case. Positively
sold by all druggists on the Western Cont
nent.

Whilst Plumhof plays a tune.

A journal is a different Thing.
In the latter you may &prc al

or be written in evening, if one
would avail himself OF all its adj
vantages. Anything will do for

for writing, but a little pocket

season, came to the door in his
clean Sunday clothes, and loitcr-

said, 81 wonder if Mr.. j. hasn't
lost his reckosirg, and taken
this for Sunday" We thought
it must be so, and l related how

father dress himself mp leisurely

the same house we then lived in to
sing his Sunday-school song book

S. S. Superintendent, while his
usual daily work was waiting
quite urgently for his care. A
little later l saw my neighbors

when | asked her about it, she
assured me that it aoas Sunday.

One of the greatest trials ofthe
newspaper profession is that lis
members are compelled to see
more of the shams OF the world
than any other profession. Thro'
every newspaper office, day If er

world; all the vanities that want
to be pulled; all the revenges that
want to be reapcd; all the mis-
takes that want TO be corrected;
all the dull speakers who want
to be thought eloquent; all the
meanness that wants to get its
wares noticed gratis in the edi-
toral column, in order to save the
tax in the advertising columns;
all the men who want to be SET
right who were never right; all
the crack-brained philosophers,
stories as long as their hair, and
as gloomy as their finger nails
in mourning because bereft OF
soap;- all the bores who come to
stop i've minutes, but talk five
hours. Throuh the editora, and
reportorial rooms all the tollies
and shams OF the world are seen.
