"The camp consists of eight or ten

in the vicinity all summer. and it is
in a gulch that is full of prospect
holes from one to twenty yeaK old.

case of the United States against

for unlawful cohabitation with more

ed to giving evidence on the ground
that the indictment did not allege
that cohabitation was with the wo-

The court charged, in substance, that
he was to be found guilty if he lived

the word cohabit.

The BANNER. Gerard Huppertz, fore
man of the Banner mine, called on the
WORLD the other day He informs Us that
there are now one hundred tons of ore out
at the mine, and twelve men are at work
IN the mine, stopping. On the lower level
drifts have been run east from the shaft
16S feet, and west 800 eet.and the vein all
that distance Averages tin thickness from
eight inches to a foot. Work will soon
be resum ed>in the east DRIFT which win
be extended on. The ledge is good so far
as. run on, both east and west. The larg-
lssst body Of ore-sixteen or eighteen inch
| es thick-was the richest carrying chic
rides, aud was west OF the shaft. twill
| take the present force about eight u oEths
to Slope out the ore above the lower level
and as far as the drifts have been extend
| ed east and west. The work of sinking
the shaft one hundred feet deeper will he
commenced about the .fi~st OF February.
Mr.. Huppertz says the Banner is well
defined, solid ledge, with the exception of
break i'll the east end which was reach
ed by the lower drift. 4 drift Will have
to be run thirty or forty feet to get into
the vein again. This break extends to
the surface. In the upper levels the vein
has been worked quite a distance east of
the break, and is solid and erich There
will probably he no break. in the next lev
e1, 60 feet below. Mr.. Hupperh is Of
the opinion that the Banner and ats fead-
ers, with the Golden Gate ledge, all come
together at no great depth below the pres
ent workings, and form large vein. He
| says everything indica-es this, and Mr. II.
is an experienced miner, and there is no
doubt that his prediction will prove cor
rect. The ore taken from the lower level
this season milled, on an average, Sal
per ton. One seasons run on ore from
the neat level above was not SO good
| $lOI per t"n and another season, still
nearer the surface--SSo per ton, anu at the
surface the ore.tid not pay expenses of
| mining and milling. 81 1t will be seen
that the ore increases in richness, with reg
| ulariiy, rs depthiis attained. The size of
the vein at the surface. and in all the levels
and Slopes isabout he same. In size il
holds its own and gets richer with depth.
