Smith, who has just return ed from Anidem, Linn comity, in the old Quartiville milling district, brought with him $1000 in gold bullion. The bullion was the result of a five days' run on ore from the Golden Hope mine, at the Albany mill, near Anidem. The Golden Hope is owned by Dr Smith, and givs promise of developing into a good dividen 1-paying property. Dr Smith made the trip in to Anidem three months ago, on snowshoes. and it took him tw3 days to reach the camp from Gates, a distance of 2" miles. Reaching the Alb&nv mill, he found seven feet of snow on the level, and, be ing unab'.e to do any wo-k on bis mine, started with a force of men on the Al bany propel ty. The mill was entirely overhauled, bunk hon es rebuilt, and new timbers put in the drifts and tun nels. When tbe enow had sufficiently disappeared, a trail was built to the Golden Hope claim, and tbe ore was baulad by horses to the mill, half a ton at a time. A shaft was sunk a distance of 40 feet, ore being found all the way, the vein running, through a mass of de composed quarta. Owing to the foul air encountered in the shaft. Reaching a distance of 20 feet, the wails ot the shaft tell in, turning up tbe Hulls, 22x22, like whiplashes. The bottom of the shaft was struck at a further distance of 20 feet, and about 25 tons of ore taken out, from which tbe bu.lion brought to Port land was taken. Another ti.nnel is now being run 125 feet below the bottom of tbe shaft, which will be completed next week. Big 4th Attractions. A. J.
