In consequence Of the dismissal of the
Mongolians the mines are all saut down
for so indefinite time, thus throwing
out OF employment about 200 miners.
These we're Superintendent Davies in

obey them. The miners at Carbonate
took no part in the expulsion, and had
no hand whatever in sending away the
Chipamen. These Celestials, about 60
