GUELPH CON.


 Work on this mine is being pushed along vigorously, and it is looming up in fine condition The ledge shows six feet of good mineral Without foot wall being yet discovered The ledge seems to open up rapidly as it sinks into the earth, and in crease in quality with every blast that ex- pcdes. The shaft is down about fifty-five feet A full force are at work and develop. meut will be pushed forward rapidly.
 OLD GUARD.
 A fine quality of high grade ore Is being extracted from the 80 level. A winze has been started from the east drift on the 230 level Commenced shipping ore to Boston mill yesterday. Will mill eighty tons
 SAN DIEGO.
 The shaft on this mine has now attained a depth of 37S feet and sinking IS still continued. The south drift on the $50 level is in 167 feet and looking good. The north drift on same level has been driven 135 feet. The north drift on the 266 level is in ninety-one feet. The mine is in ex- cellent condition all the way through.
 TRANQUILITY.
 Work has been continued here with avidity and the mine is showing up in the most fiattering manner The steam hoist ing works were started up during the past week, and 1t is expected that connection will be made with the whip shaft Tn sDopt ten days. The quality of ore extracted re- mains about the same, and according to present indications an immense body Of rich ore cannot be avoided. Ten stamps of the Girard mill continue at work on r.,ilikv and tut the nrNnpr connections are made, doubtless the entire facilities of the Girard mill will be devoted ts Tranquility ore.
 INGERsoLL.
 The upraise from the 80 level will reach the surface some time tbls week. The works heretofore reported are continued and good progress is being made The ore bodies are holding out well, and the mine is in excellent condition all the way through
 This is a triangular claim situated be- tween the Townsite and Defense. It is owned byJ. W. Stump and son, and work on the claim was commenced few days ago. It shows up pretty we'll, and promises 10 imltate it's neighbor, the ln- gersol at no distant day.
 HEAD CENTER.
 Stoping between the first and second levels is continued, and the usual amount of ore is being hoisted to the surface. The mine is in excellent condition, and there is plenty of ore in sight It is expected that steam hoisting works will be in operation in few days.
 PEABODY (COCHIsE DIsTRICT)
 Judge Moses, who returned from the Cochise district Tuesday night, informs us that he took in the Peabody during his trip in that part of the county. Tho Judge IS an old mining man and his opinion re- garding mines is far from being insigni- fcant. He states that the main Incline shaft goes down at an angle of 55 degrees; !; that fourteen men stopped out 500 tons of ore on the fifty foot level last month; that there are five feet of solid ore ln the no foot level. The drift southeast from tbe no is in the same quality of ore. The main incline shaft is down one hundred and thirty-five feet, with ten feet of solid ore at the bottom, without walls being yet discovered. The lower levels are looking better than on top, and 300 tons of ore are piled on the dump. while not less than 250 tons are at the snslter, giving an average assay of % per cent. copper. Most of the ore extracted yields $1o0 per ton gold and silver in addition to the copper Judge Moses is of opinion that the Peabody IS the biggest copper property in this coun- ty, and has high opinion of the Cochise district in general.
 BULwER
 This promising claim Is located between the San Pedro and Fair Villa, and prom ises big things when properly developed. The crOpplngs on the ledge stick cut for 1400 feet and assay at the grass roots very flatterlngly. Work will be commenced in few weeks and prosecuted assiduously.
