Eureka, the same being the SENTINEL, I'M
fairness in the wording Of the dispatches
from here regarding the Albion Richmond
suit. The SENTINEL is made responsible
for the comments of the San Francisco pa
pers. The following is quoted as a sample
from the Post:
elm the matter between the Richmond
and Albion companies, Judge Rives, this
morning, after having heard an exhaustive
argument between counsel for both sides,
decided to admit the testimony of the Al
bion, showing the invalidity of the St.
George patent held by the Richmond Com
pany.
This decision, which comedies with that
of Judge Rising, is considered q very i'm
portant point in favor of the Albion.
There is great rejoicing here"
The first paragraph, which is literally
true, was sent from here. The last was
not sent from here, but is the comment of
the Post or some other Bay paper, from
which it was taken by the Post. The tele-
graphic accounts of the great trial have
consisted Of plain, unvarnished facts
throughout, and any imputation to the
contrary is simply malicious.

Old Fields the Rest.

The Chicago Mining Review reads East
ern capitalists a very sensible lecture on
their inclination to follow the rush into
new and untried fields. 1t says in sub
stance that it is much easier to get them to
invest where it is fashionable thar to draw
their attention to meritorious properties in
the old and we'll established districts. In
a word. that they go in blindly, and as
often as otherwise loose what they venture,
simply through a lack of business pru-
dence. The same paper asserts that Ne
vada and Utah, Notwithstanding that their
mines have been worked for years. consti-
tute the best portion of the mining terri
tory of the United States. There can be
no question about that, and so far as Ne
'vada is concerned, We thank the Review for
having said 90.

the directors. Hear, hear. They had at
present about $50 tons Of ore on hand,
which ut the very moderate estimate OF
$50 per ton made the gross value Of the ore
mined and brought down to the bins at the
smelling furnaces S27, 900, and that less
the cost Of smelling, equivalent to about
81, 725, and would give S23, 275 the standard
Eureka value; and in order to convert that
into cash at San Francisco it would be
necessary to deduct about one-third of the
gross amount.
The chairman, in reply to a shareholder,
said the general charges Of the Richmond
Company were, of course, proportionately
very much smaller than those of this COM
pany. Besides the Richmond Company
had a refinery and railway at a large CAPT
tai outlay, which we're now welding large
profits. This company was also doing a
very large amount of prospecting. The
management of the mine had been very
carefully looked after, both by the super
