The most satisfactory developments
that are being made at the Blue river,
Caiipooya and McKinzie mines, these
being continuation of the same MINI
eral belt are creating some excitement
among the prospectors and miners in
this section. Although but limited
amount Of work has as yet been done,
sufficient i'm most cases TO legally hold
claims; the returns that have been re-
ecived from groupings, are most fiat
tering. Messrs. Waters, Blanchard
and Young, the locators of the AN
ME" claim, have during the past week
received certificates of assay, showing
from so to 90 ounces of silver to the
ton, and varying from $50 to 800 in
value. Arrangements are now being
made to thoroughly develop these
claims, a force of men will be put on
who will push work during the sum-
mer months. Although placer mining
has been carried on in a small way,
eolors of gold being obtained from all
the streams heading from the Cal.
ipooya range of mountains; this is the
first year that attention has been paid
to quartz, and the subsequent discov.
cry of what would seem to be extern
sive lodes of fsilver-bearing rock. This
region being easy of access by the Cali.
pooya trail, sixty miles from Browns
vile, in we'll wooded and watered
locality, without the extremes of dry
or cold climate, offers all inducements
to those desirious of prospecting an inn
mense era of country as yet undevelop
