Mr.. Cornelius Driscoll, of Bristol,
New, has recently obtained patent
for an invention for saving amalgam
quicksilver and gold. The invention
is very simple and requires but a
small amount of money to be put on
a working basis. 1t consists of a
system of sluices six inches wide at
the bottom aud ten feet in length.
The principle of the rifles differs
from that of the Hungarian. mss
much as the metals to be concentrat-
ed accumulate at the upper lower
side of the rifles, and is described
In the patent issued to Mr.. Driscoll
as follows: IAN improved Sluice
bcx, composed of series of plat
forms arranged one above the other
on the same horizontal plane, aud
each provided with a rifle near its
edge, and quicksilver bath above
and copper plate below the said
rifle" This invention of Mr.. Dris-
coils, if successful, will be of great
service to the mining community in
general.-Eureka Sentinel.

Luning and ThereabOut.

The Manchester, or harrington mine
being better developed than any other
is considered the leading mine of
Garfield District. There is an in
cline down about 80 feet from which
remarkably rich ore has been taken
all the way down. After the rock
from this mine has been assorted the
second class yields from $500 to
5000 per ton and the first class as
high as $4,000. Regular shipments
are being made to BeIlevllle at the
rate Of about 40 tons per month.
Two shifts are now working, but ne
soon as arrangements can be made
for boarding and lodging, forty men
will be added to The force. A store
will also be built as soon as more
important work is finished.
The Great Western, although only
sunk to depth of twenty feet, is
promising mine. A carload of its
ore which was not very carefully
assorted was sent to San Francisco
and averaged $500 per ten. The
owners are not working it at present
but there is more of the same kind
of ore left.
The Black Prince is producing
very rich ore from the surface. 1t
runs from 5000 to $1,000. This ex-
ceediDgly rich rock is taken out not
more than ten feet from the surface.
Specimens can be found which will
20 $4,000.
The Lolita mine continues to yield
regular shipments of rich ore.
McLeau's mine, an extension Of
the Lolita, is down rs feet producing
rich ore and improving with depth.
The above named mines are about
all that are yet opened, but there are
numerous locations which will soon
be worked.
Hearty all the lodges in the dis
trct have been located, and although
there is probably no district in the
State which will compare with Gar.
field, it is almost too late now for
strangers to come who expect to
make a rich strike suddenly.
ellis District is putting out the
usual quantity of ore.
The Burley mine owned by Glen
Ogg and Thomas Taylor is as profit
able az in the beginning.
A new discovery in this district
which is being developed has been
opened to depth of 40 feet and
shows ledge varying from inches
to one foot, sssaying from $500 to
500.
Eli johnson has struck fine body
of ore in the Mayflower mine in
Santa Fee district. This mine has
been bonded for considerable sum.
There is no doubt that the country
in the vicinity of Luning is the best
in the State so far as developed, the
only disadvantage being the scarcely
of water, but there is plenty of
whisky.
Building is progressing rapidly in
Luling. Business of all kinds is
lively, and fights are daily occur.

Prospectors can sell their ore
in Luning to the agents OF the
Melrose Smelling Company, of Oak

A Postal Change Needed.

A great many are CON ,laining on
account of the delay in receiving
letters and papers from points on the
G. & G. railroad south. There is no
distributing done in the nail car and
letter, say from Hawthorne, must
be taken through Dayton in the
evening to Carson and return from
that place next morning. Anything
sent by mail to any point south is
taken to Carson and brought back
past Dayton the next day. A day is
thus lost on all mail matter, and al
though letters as rule get through
finally, the rule is just the reverse re-
garding newspapers. Residents
along the c. g. G. find that the days
on which their newspapers come to
time are exceptional.

A Modern Deiliah.

A residence of Pawtucket has two
daughters who are very lively girls,
and wide awake to all that is passing
in the world. One of the daughters is
a school teacher, and, as is proverbial
among that class of people, is fond
Of seeing things "about right" A few
days ago she discovered that the
gray locks of her father required the
good offices of the hair cutter. Like
dutiful daughter, she called his
attention to the fact, but he was not
so particular as to bis personal ap
pearance as she, and so neglected to
visit the barber. For several days
she continued to urge him to get his
hair cut, but her entreaties produced
no effect. But she was not to be
foiled. Those locks must be shorn.
A few days ago the old man lay
down on the sofa to take an after
noon nap, his Samsonisn locks flow
ing ever the pillow. Deillah and her
scissors we're ready, and she pro-
ceeded in the most artistic manner
to decorate his hair with bangs,
scollops, water waves and all the
modern arrangements Of the scalp.
When the old gentleman awoke, some
remarks were offered, and then he
{ ok his hat and went to the BARRIERS.
