, On the 28th ult , Messrs. J J Roe &
Go. dispnK'hed the hleameVGen Grant,
from bt. LoniH, tip iho river, for the
purpose ot ticking up the freight drop
ped at differeut points, last jvur, on
account of low water, ec.t.
A correspondent writing from Ban
ttaok.oiiy,ay8 : .,',':"
Gulch mining, his my maturo and
honest opinion, will be more protita
. ble, thin year, than at any previous
time since the palmy duys ot placer
mining in Bannack, when ono hundred
dollar to the pan, and more, wnrt (re
quently on Jimmy! bur, and fortunes
were sluiced out in a few months.
Messrs. Smith , and Graeter have
bought this bur, it being situate I near
the terminus ot the Bannack ditch, of
which thoy are, 1 believe, the princi.
ftal stockholders. They intend to put
q large flumes, . and to sluice the
whole thing through. Woo 'would
not ' like - a share in that " Golden
Fleecef" Every miner is confident
that tbey have a fortune in this alone,
besides the numerous dry gulches
west and south of Bannack) which are
known to be rich, and will be easily
worked when they bring in their new
ditoh above tha head of these places.
These enterprising gentlemen bare
no vv the best store in Bannack, and
are, doubtless, on the high road to
wealth and publio usefulness.
The preok claims are yet un worked,
bat have been prospected for six or
eight miles, and are known to be rich.
Capital and combination are required
here, and no individual miner can
work his claim -on account of the
amount of water, which necessitates a
system ot drainage.
, Descending a short distance on tho
other side, the Blue Wing District is
readied. Here a perfect network of
silver quarts veins, among which' the
Huron, Blue Wing, Arieona, Wido
West and Silver Rose stand preemu
nontj simply because shafts have boon
; on them, and their richness has been
proved up, and thoroughly tosted. :
Messrs. Sears and Wright are sink
jngon tbe Silver Casket lode, their
own discovery, for Mr. Fowler, of New
York, who has gone cast for a1 mill
fend other machinery. . This same
range of mountains extends to the
1 north to tho itattlesnake District,
where the veins again crop out: 'The
lodes at this latter plaoo are very rich
in silver and galena. Lieutenant
Johnson is still sinking on the Eaton,
the ore of which assays very high.
The best leads of this district, as tar as
I know, are the Legal Tender, the
Whit Cloud, the .New World, the
naison ami tire Dictator : put morn
aro a thousand others just us good
tjtiitea number of prospectors have
been sinking upon their various di.
oovertes- auring mo pst winter,
Thej deserve friiieh credit, for their in
tenuous aro good " on tho face j and
wo. hope; -.at no distant day, to see
these poor, honest men, richly reward
od. If . cuiritalisth would bur-from
them, instjotid , "of "purchasing front
speculators in '! wild-cut," they would
never. rtiiylieir bargain.'
