OLD M|NES OF SONORA
INTERESTING HISTORY CONCERN MING FIRST DISCOVERIES MADE, AND INDICATING THE WONDERFUL MINERAL WEALTH STATE. CROWN

Various works have been written concerning the mines of Sonora and most of them agree as to the extent, immense richness, and the cause of their deca6ence. None of these writ CTS. however, whether from want ol time or reliable data. have treated the subject with the attention it merits. The statements which follow may be relied upon as accurate, being based upon authentic information from the owners and directors of mines, and careful personal observation.
 We may safely say that the mines of Sonora are almost unknown in the other States of the Republic, and even in the metropolis; it is known. indeed, that such a country as Sonora exists, and that it is rich in minerals: but this knowledge Is about as definite as that generally possessed with regard to Siberia and Southern Africa-de- rived from the vague accounts that we have read of those countries. This general ignorance, and consequent in difference, together with the lack of the protection and assistance of the government, have caused a sad decay of our mining interests. and they now retain but a shadow of their former prosperity.
 Up to the year 1s10. the silver min ing establishments continued in a E9ouliishing condition Quicksilver was then supplied by the respective Territorial deputations to the register ed miners. upon a credit of six moEths, upon their personal security, at a price that never exceeded sixty dollars, and frequently fell to fifty seven dollars per 100 pounds.
 "Gambusinos," viz: those miners who, without capital or assistance, worked either in abandoned mines or in those too poor to tempt capital, were of great benefit to the communi- ty; since. being numerous, the aggre- gate of their labors amounted to a considerable sum. But when the price of quicksilver rose to one hun dred dollars, and finally to one hun dred and seventy dollars per 100 pounds. a general decline Of the min ing interests was the result. The gambusinos. among others. were fore ed to abandon their labors, and th.s materially impeded the discovery of new mines Many of them turned their attention to gold mining. which does not require so large a consump- ton Of quicksilver, and made import ant discoveries of this metal. as we shall hereafter relate.
 The mines in Sonora have been worked from time immemorial, as proved by the number of excavations dicovered by tho first settlers after the conquest, and of which we have no

, more authentic information than that derived from tradition. On the Ger. TO Priet ,. between the rancho co la Palma and la Cara Pintada, is an old mine called Tarasca, that has not been , worked for more than one hundred years, and that was, according to tra- d.tion, exceedingly rich In the same Sierra are other old mines, in the neighborhood of which the vesuges of buildings are still visible, md we might cite hundreds of others of the same class.
 Among the m.nes of San Jose de Gracia there is one celebrated for it's richness. which was worked in 1S09- l 10 by a Catalonian Spaniard named Juan Jose Carumina- When aban- doned by the original discoyerer it was full of water. Carum-na sue eeeded in clearing it for two CT three hours, and took out a lump of ore i weighing three arrobas (75 pounGs) which yielded fourteen marks (I12 ozs.) of pure silver Unfortunately, at this time he had the misfortune to 1 break his baling apparatus, and the water rushed in so rapidly as to refill N%At AAAAAAN HI oAA VI AO44 Ad- rumina, having expended all of his capital and contracted several debts, was compelled to abandon the under taking, ana repaired to Chihuahua. A company afterwards attempted to work the mine; but after having ex- pended 9 considerable sum, they abandoned 1t on account of a fatal ac- cident to one of the workmen.
 Most of these old mines, according to tradition. were exceedingly rich. Some of the old inhabitants of San Jose ae GTacia, in speaking of the mine of Carum4na, testify that :he vein in many places was of virgin sil- yer, and that in others the, ore yield ed 50 per cent of pure silver
 In the work entitled Apostolic La bors of the Society of Jesus" publish ed by one of the members of that or der. .s the following statement:
 'In the year 1769 a region of virgin silver was discovered on the frontier of the Apaches, at the placed called Arizona, on a mountain ridge about 8 half league in extent. The discov- cry was made by a Yaqui Indian, who revealed t to a trader, and the latter made it public. The news of such surprising wealth attracted a multi tude to the spot. At a depth of a few varas, masses of pure silver were found, of a globular form, and of one or two arobas in weight. Several pieces were taken out weighing up- wards of twenty arrobas; and one found by a person from GuadalajaTa weighed one hundred and forty srro- bas- Many persons amassed large sums, whilst others found nothing"

There was an auction sale In a Vir.
ginia town, and one after another the
widows few possessions fell beneath
the hammer. Among the people pres.
emit was Henry A. Wise, former Gov.
ernor Of Virginia, whose kind heart
made him the friend of all who knew
him. The Advocate and Guardian de-
scribes the auction:
Presently the auctioneer took up a
large bowl which happened to be full
of sugar, and the poor woman, anx-
ious to have its contents, fastened
into the next room to find something
in which to put 1t.
Just as she returned the auction
eer cried. "Soldr' and the pur-
chaser insisted that the sugar was
his. The widow pleaded for the lit
tie that meant much to her, but the
buyer was obdurate.s The protests Of
the crowd were so strong that he An
ally turned to Mr.. Wise and said:
mr.. Wise, you are lawyer. Am
I right or not? If you say l am not
I will give back the sugar. If you
say am entitled to keep it, I'll keep
it"
my friend" replied Mr.. Wise, in
Lis gentlest tone, ''you put delicate
and unpleasant responsibility on me.
Hadn't you better decide the matter
for yourselfT"
"No," replied the fellow, CURLY. II
know what your opinion is going to be,
and want you to give 1t so that this
whole crowd can hear it."
''Then," said Wise, II advise you
that the sugar is yours. The widow
cannot take 1t from you. She has no
redress"
"Ahap' cried the man, turning to
the spectators. "What did tell your
"Stopy" continued Wise. 'T've ad.
vised you at your own request, as I
can prove by these people. 1t remains
for me to tell you that my fee for the
advice is Eve dollars, and / shall be
obliged If you will pay it at once"
The man turned scarlet, but pro-
duced a flve-dollar bill and handed 1t
to Mr.. Wise. The crowd yelled Its
approval, but suddenly became silent
as Mr.. Wise walked up to the widow
and said, 'This money is mine; have
earned 1t. Take 1t and buy more su-
gar"
