THE WEALTH OF UNION COUNTY The Opinion of an Able Writer ami .Miu tag Expert. Editor Orboon Scout: In my firt and lust communication from tiiis point, I s-poko in general terms of tho mineral supply of Cornu copia and adjacent districts, promising to in a future letter specify tho prop erties that are still in the hands of tho original locators. I will take those ! that have been first brought to my notice. ' 1 Thn "Stnio" minn ia situated ono ! mile north of town, and is the proper ty of Bolles it Senor and 11. Brown, three bueinass men of this place. Tho ledgo is sevon feet wide between the walls, with throe feet of solid ore. The oro is dark, like black silver sulphurets, containing, however, but little silver, but using a common expression, is "lousy" with freo gold. Tho wall rock of slate also carries gold in paying quantities. The average of all tho ledge matter assays or rather mills if.lO per ton. 1 have just been shown tin assay from this ledge, of ore which was not considered worth saving, which reached $2!).2o. This ledgo runs, in direction, a little east of north, directly over the mountain, and work can be commenced on tho ledgo, increasing in depth six inches from the. surface to each foot of tunnel. It is most favora bly located, as a good wagon road runs to the hiouth of tho tunnel. Water power in a small stream lies within fifteen foot of tho tunnel, with timber on tho ground suHiciont for an almost endless exploration of the mine. This location is about three fourths of a mile from tho O. Cr. M. Co's mill which drops twenty stamps. Thirteen hun dred pounds of tho "State" mine ore run through this mill, left on tho plates $73.50, and had the oro been roasted a much larger result would havo been obtained. There is no use i in denying the fact that roasting elim inates the bitso element that accom "panys the ore, giving a much larger return of tho precious metal. 1 ho mine can probably be bought for sixty thousand dollars, which, if your cor respondent were allowed to j ml go of its value, ho would call a good invest ment. Its accessibility with its sur roundings of wood, and water power, make it really a bonanza for some ono with capital. Ono piece of oro reached by assay tho enormous sum of $20,000 per ton. I don't dusiro to carry the idea that thcro is much of such oro in tho "State," for that class of oro is found only in pockets, while enongh is distributed through tho ledgo to mako it of great value. At tho depth of fifteen feet from tho surface a "lime hor&o" was encountered which is grad ually diminishing in size, hut has all tho way carried gold on an average of $17 per ton, so it may bo safely said that all inside tho walls carries gold in paying qunntitios. Tho samo descrip tion and romnrks will apply equally well to other minus in its immediate vicinity, among which aro tho "Com et," "Way Up" and "Gorge," which were referred to in my previous lottor. The "Comet" U three fuct between wall of fcolid quartz carrying gold, with sulphurets carrying two or three dollars in hilver. Twenty sacks pro duced twolvo dollars of freo gold, be sides tlio metal loft in tho tailings which aaay twenty dollars por ton. It is gonerally shown that about ono half, or one-third is tnvod on tho plates. Thu oro from those mines all requires roasting, but tho working without roasting loses none of tho gold. Parties are now flutling in chloriniition works similar to IIioho now in operation at Deor Crook, Nova da City, California. This process has proved Eutihfaotory and is generally adopted where the oro is accompanied by rebellious or refractory olomontd. Tho oro is exposed to thu notion of ohorina for forty-oight hours. It is no oxporiment which tlio Cornueopians are trying, hut simply obeying scien tific touching. Even tho freo gold in these mines is shown to bo in sufficient Wiit of Wait oho?, CI quantities to justify the wihKst antVi pations of the owiure. Cornucopia has evidences of refmo mont nnd civilization which strongly mark its material prosperity As 1 write the sweet tones of a piano are waftetl. through the clear mountain air inspired by the master hand of onu of our fair daughters, and 1 recognize the music of Dipie and the more ditli cult strains of tho German Opera. 1 am told that there are three pianos in town. The tcrpsichorian deity has has also it 8 worshippers two dances having taken place during my short sojourn of ono week. There was a meeting of citizens held the other night to consider a proposi tion to shorten the road between here and Union. In ono place a distance of eight, or ten miles can be tmvpd, which, beyond tho pemdventuro of a ) . A i ! it . doubt, will make union, oy tar, tne , nearest und most nmcticablo route. ! V t,l..,U v-,v.. -,f M,n vl. mohW of tho commissioner that they will take steps to materialize tho proposi tion. Cornucopia will in a few days report progress in tho project. Six or seven miles east of Cornuco pia is tho new district of Oknnngon, which has of lato attracted considera ble attention. In this district tho walls of tho ledges aro the familiar porphyry which is so welcome to the eyes of the old California prospector. Tho ledges aro mammoth in size and well defined. When more develop ment is made and assays aro reported, I will send you the results. Yeiily this is a rich land rich in hardy, en terprising men lieh in healthy and in telligent women and rich in tlio precious metals. Good-bye until next week. Baxiun. 1 S. Since tho above was deposited in the mail, I learn of important de velopments in tho "Bed Jacket" mine. A body of rich ore has just been reached in the lower tunnel. This is '100 feet from the surface, thus dispelling all doubts about the depth of tho ore de posit. The surfaco showed two veins of which tho ono just struck is tho smaller. It was found just where it was expected to be found, and thu su perintendent, Mr. Smith, has no doubt but what tho two veins will eomo to gether in about 25 feet more. The oro contains both sulphurets and freo gold. 'IN FURRIN LANDS: A Former JliinUcrs i:BjIit." ItcKldciit of Orando Kiimln After the Vlcsti t'ols of Coinmo, (W. T.,) March 20, 1S89. Editor Ouuao.v Scout: Looking over your itsue of March 1-1 th, I seo a correspondence from Centralia, W. T. It appears that u young blood from 1'yle canyon was traveling through this country nearly out of stamps. Tliero aro plenty of men here in the samo fix. I have lived in tho vicinity of Summorvillo for 20 years, from tlio first sottling of Grande Hondo valloy, and novor saw as many destitute peoie in that time as I havo seen horo since the 9th of February last. Thero aro from six to ten men walking tho railroad track ovory day, hunting work and begging something to cat. Some of thorn well dressed, respectable, and intelligent looking mon, but without money or employment, and moro nro coming. The west hound trains aro full of emi grants comiug to 1'ugot Sound, 1 can't seo what thoy aro coming for. Thero aro throe men for every job now. This iB a country with nothing but fir timber, poor boef, hard work and saw mills. Jt looks about tlio samo compared to Grande Bondo val ley that chalk would to choeso for eat ing purposes. Kor humanity's sake stop all tho emigrants in Grande Bondo you oan, where tliore is plenty to oat, and work at somo wagon. There thoy will not go hungry. There aro plenty here that will do anything for a little grub and sit down on a log and oat it. Some that will pick up tho scraps that are thrown out of doors. I would advise all to stay thero that aro thinking of coming here to labor, if thoy oan get board, for a man with out money does not fare bolU-r than a good dog doua there. I would toll you i nloro btit fesr your space would not admit ofit. I hopo the people of Un ion county will ruino tho subsidy to build the Hunt railroad.
