 Special Correspondence of the CITIZEN. CAMP BowIz, June 2s--The lookout , for the deserted camps in the ChIrcia.
 hua mountains Is assuming its former , liveliness. The recent Indian rad
 caused a complete stampede. but assur-
 ance of comparative safety IS causing
 rush to the vacated camps. Quite a
 number Of miners left this morning for
 Galeyville to resume work. Recently
 some strikes have been made which justify the opinion, that the energy dis
 played at GaleyviIle n erecting works
 for the reduction of ores was entirely too premature for reasons well known

 failure made by the company had the
 effect of deadening the camp, which
 was into the hands of lot oi fellows who travel these mountains declaring every
 thing worthless in the shape of mines
 and generally growl at something they are unable to contribute to, but usually
 they psrtake of the Inequalities ten dered them and are better judges in this l than in any other way. Their presump- ton is beyond forbearance, and the | internal terms they apply to the differ ent metals are unknown in the English language.
 There are some good prospects that do not need praising. Commencing with Dunn Mine, we have the oldest located mine in this famous range of mountains. This mine is owned by Chatham, B. l.. Duncan and Lieut.. Geary. It is distant from Bowie south twenty-five miles. The ore is carbonate, yellow and gray and contains ffty-four per cent. lead and from thirty to sixty dollars in silver One shaft is down forty feet in ore, no walls visible, size of shaft jx7 feet. This doubtless is one of the most immense leads discovered in this territory and the ore Is free smelling. Lieut.. Gteary is to be con gratu ated on his purchase in this fine property.
