The News Herald has ascertained the cause of their rejoicing. A fifteen foot shaft has been sank on the lower side of the big dike in q fOC" foot kaolin gouge. Assays near the surface show values of two and three dollars, but at the bottom of the shaft had increased to $15 S5. They have started q tunnel from the gulch below and are now in about 40 feet. This tunnel will cut the Gike or ledge at depth or over Cle hundred feet and if the values there equal those of the last assay. Case and Brown will be on easy street, as this great mineraliZed dille shows a width of over Nighty feet on the sur fac.
