Editor Butte MINER.
Seven months have passed away since your
correspondent first visited this noted mine in
behalf of the MINER. No doubt your read
ers have not forgotten the description which
followed that visit. The 23d Of this month
found us bright and early in the morning IN
company with the Superintendent, Mr.. Ryan.
Downing a suit of miners clothing, we again
descend the ladder until We arrived at the
60-foot level. This level we find driven $50
east and 100 feet west, with three WINES sunk
to the level below, for ventilation. sDescend-
ing to the 1OO-foot level, we explore it $40
feet east and AS feet west. 226 feet from the
shaft a Wine has been raised to the bottom
OF the old blacksmith shop shaft, and the
west end of the drift connects with a Wine
sunk where a crOSS-cut tunnel cuts the
vein. East of the main shaft on this level an
air shaft is raised to the surface; by this it
can be readily seen that the mine las a good
circulation of pure air. Descending 60 feet
more, the 1GO-foot level is reached. This
level has beeen driven 100 feet east and 14G

40 feet more of ladder and we are at the 200
foot level, which extends $50 feet east and
22O feet west. Here we find a No. 81
Knowles pump at work forcing the water to
the surface. 40 feet east of the shaft at this
depth a vein of ore three feet in width was
found running of in a south-easteriy direc-
tion. A drift was run on this spun the dis
lance of 25 feet at the time of our visit, and
the vein showed no signs of playing out.
The main shaft is sunk 20 feet below this
level, and three eight-hour shifts of miners
are putting it down as fast as powder and
steel can do at. BY a personal examination
at the bottom of the shaft the ore vein was
found to be nine feet wide. A small Harris
steam pump hoists the water from the bottom
and deposits it in a large tank inf the east 200,
foot level from which the large pump HOSTS
it to the surface as already described.
In the portions of This great vein through
which have been endeavOring take the reader,
very little work has been lone except running
drifts and sinking WINES. Stopping has been
done on some of the upper levels. but most
of the ore is laying on the stulls awaiting to
be hoisted to the surface, Several hundred
tons of broken ore is also laying in some Of
the drifts. A new shaft-liouse has been built
over the main shelf. The bucket lands about
25 feet above the surface of the ground, while

THE MINING AND FARMING INTER.
ESTS O IN CONFLICT.

A false idea prevails with some persons
and it is found more frequently among farm-
ers and ranchmer--that there exists some
rivalry or conflict of interests between the
mining and agricultural interests of our Ter
ritory. That any legislation which has for
its object the promotion or encouragement of
one, must necessarily be at the expense of,
and operate injuriously to, the other. As
these and all kindred opinions are based
either pm ~prejudice or most short-sighted
views, we propose trying to dispel some of
them, and to show that instead of being in
any way in conflict, That these separate pur.
suits mutually benefit and sustain one anoth-
ar /; that whatever promotes the one will react
In its advantages upon the other. On the

The State Department at Washington has
advices that the British and German govern
ments have favorably received the recent Cir
cular issued by she United States calling at
tention to the determination of this govern
ment to prosecute all persons who have viola
ted the Federal law against p%olygamOus mar
riages, and informing them of the presence of
agents amongst their subjects making converts
to polygamy. 1t appears that about the time
of the issue of this circular the number of
proselytes shipped to this country was unusu-
ally large. Reports from consular officers at
the principal points of shipment of Mormon
converts, state that the police are energeti-
cally at work to stop uch emigration by for
NAL instructions hat our government will
arrest and prosecute emigrants of this sect
Immediately on their arrival. Secretary Ev-
arts now feels confident that, with the Coop
Grafton of the governments addressed, the
inflow of Mormon proselytes from the Old
World will be almost entirely cut of, and,
with the energetic measures now being en-
forced in Utah, that the whole system will
speedily crumble in pieces.

We have much which European nations have

undeveloped resources to exhaust before our

problem. In thisr respect we have great prom
Use for the future. The fact of the matter is,
we are more thought of abroad than we think
OF ourselves; yet at the same line we think
considerable of ourselves and we in fact are
a little conceited over our advantages.

were recently captives among the Utes, ar
rived there at 4 p. m, where they will remain
