EARLY DAY MINING NOTES.
A Few Extracts From a California Paper
Dated 1851.
Like mi echo from the past, which illus
trates In a vivid manner the seeming fab
ulous riches ol the placer ininrs of finl
iimne comity in the r.irly day, are the
following extracts from an old copy of the
Sonora Herald (the first paper published
in the county and now extinct), dated
May j, iK$t, which a friend has placed
on our deslc
"Die kuIcIi at Jamestown has been
wot hed over several times, yet it appears
to be as productive as ever. Three Chil
runs, In .i fortnight, have taken out f is.
cwo, and three l;renchmen twelve pounds
ol gold on last Thursday afternoon.
"A parly ol three l;renchiiim took out
of a hole they had snuU In Sounta, the
enormous sum of three and a half pounds
trov In gold dust, and much more was left
until the cleaning up.
" The largest lump of gold that has vet
been found was taken from HoMen's
K.irdeu last Stturdty evening weighing
iH pounds and 4 nuuies, l.uUing is grains.
It is mUed with quart, hut the nold is
estim ited at io pounds. As yet it has not
been accurately weighed In water, and so
we cannot exactlv Mate the relative pro
portions of go Kl and quart?. Mr. Peter
Aieh.ui offered four thousand five hundred
dollars for the lump, at sight, but his offer
was not accepted, I'lie fortunate party
consisted of eight men, and are known as
the Wheaton compiuy.
" This was the lust party th it under
took to work the spot Known a Holden's
Garden, some two months since, their,
claim being -it the foot of the quartz I
mountain. From the first they have been j
taking out gold by the pounds. -re-tjuently
their diys work has amounted to
live pounds. For a week or two, how
ever, the yield has been comparatively
small, and some of the members, accus
tomed to heavy strikes, were beginning
to be discouraged. Two of the original
party sold out Io Mr. Rounds and Mr.
Gore, who entered the company just hi
time to share the glory and the profits of
the big lump.
"The names of the present members
are, Edward K. Wheaton, fiom Baltimore;
j Hiram T. Fuller. Vermont; VV. J. Harris,
Maine; Jesse Allen and John M. Lock
wood, New York City; John H. Valleau,
Natchez, Mississippi; A. Gore, Alabama,
nnd Spolferd I:. Hounds, Upper Canada.
A more industrious, moral, Intelligent,
and in everv way worthy company can
not probably be found in Calitornia. It
always gives pleasure to hear of the suc
cess of stuli men; aid such are the men
who, in the main, are bound to be sue
cesslul in this country. After telling
about the big lump, it may appear iusig
ulhcaut to add that the same company
took out two pounds of tine gold the
same day. We mention litis circumstance
simply to guard Atlantic editors against
the mistake into which some ol them have
fallen, in supposing that all the gold is in
big lumps, and that they are as common
here as paving stones on Long Island."
