THE Ripez.—On Saturday we visited the various points in Bridgeport town_ship,frcm San Juan to French. Corral, _ #id were pleased to note the evidences » of taste and thrift in the homes ef the people, and of prosperity in the mines of the region. The towns of San Juan, Sebastopo!, Sweetiand, Bikchville and French Corral have many cosy cottages, while, scattered all along the road are residences, so near together as to make a garden spot of the waole distance— six miles. The trees are heavily laden with rich and ripe fruits, and the climate is the most favorable tor a.1 agrjcultural and horticultural products. We saw in an orchard belonging to V. G. Bell a dozen fig trees, the largest of which was ten inches in diameter, and the figs, ripe and luscious, were ag large as peaches. The grapes are already ripening, and peaches, plums and ap-~ ples; with every variety of vegetables, are found about every residence in such profusion that much is wasted. Some excellent Culifornia wine has been made in this locality, and in the vicinity of French Corral a number of Frenchmien reside, who have given considers able attention to the cultivation of grapes for wine. For permanent and pleasant homes this locality will compare with any portion of the State, and a trip through the township, so pleasant on this account, is still more attract. ive because hydraulic mining may be there seen under the most favorable circumstances. ; Tae Mrves.—At San Juan Hill there is at present but little mining done, but at Sebastopol, just below, the American Company’s cluims are located. These claims are at what is known as Manzanita Hill, and their extent may be known from the fact that_six years washing has only enabled the miners to run on the channel about 800 feet, and they still have at least 2,200 feet of unbroken ground. The American Co. has bought up eight or nine other min-. ing claims, and now owns about all the ground on the hill. . They now have three. bed rock tunnels running into their claims, and men are engaged, night and day, in running one of these in for the parpose of getting up under the new banks. Thirty to forty men are constantly employed in the claims, and four pipes are kept continually playing against the banks, which are now abcut 180 feet in hight. The cement {rom the channel is very hard, and an immense quantity of powder is used in blasting, one charge last year amounting to 510 kegs. In running the main bed rock tunnel and cut this company wae fortunate enough to find aseam in the rock from which they could take the rock out. in blocks or slabs, securing perpendicular walls cut in the rock by the hand of Nature. The hardeP cement is worked in an eight stamp mill; and the company has blacksmith shop>office, melting furnace and other buildings on the ground, so that the work éven to the melting of gold into bars, is done on tlie ground. The yield of this mine = lust’ yeaP.was $149,000, and for a long time, the yielkth after each run has been so-uniform, that for every 15 or 16 days of ten hours from $7,000 to $8,000. can be counted on. At Sebastopol, Messrs. Swan, Brown, Spooner and Major McBride, members of the company, . reside, ‘and have very neat places. Mr. Brown i8 foreman in the mine. The Buckeye Hill claims, owned by Genl. Evans, John Stidger & Co, are located jugt below Sweetland. This company is now rcnning a bed rock tunnel for ‘Sweetland Creek, which, when compleved, will be 1,800 feet long. In the tunnel they employ six men day andnight. ‘They are also washing, aud employ at ‘this time 22 men, using about 600 inches of water. After the last run of six weeks the claim yielded . $18,000, which is about an average. This company has abundance of ground, and seme coutroversy arising, they recently bought the Granite Tunnel ground, paying therefor $60,000. The company recently had an offer of $180,000 for their ground. Messrs. Stidger . Fitteenmien are employed, and 500 and Evans have fine residences, beautifully located on an eminence from which they have a full view of thetr extensive claims. ny have also fine claims on the channel. inches of water used, obtaining first-rate réturns. nee At French Corral we had not time to visit the mines, but we learn that five] or six claims are being, worked ‘and a number of! men are employed. Mr. Pollinier is putting up a ten stamp mi.} and in a short time five such mills will be at work in this vicinity. The mines, se far as we were able to learn, were paying well. WonDERS OF *THE WORLD.—This is the title of a grand pictorial work which J. B. Drummond is now canvassing this city for It contains startling incidents, interesting scenes and wonderful events in all countries, all ages and among all people, by the celebrated author, C.G. Rosenberg. If you wish to be surprised, delighted, startled; instructed, amused, entertained,fascinated and eles vated—if you wish to laugh, to wonder and reflect, buy this book. It is printed from a beautiful, clear, new type, on fine, hard, silicious paper, made expressly for this work, comprised in one large quarto volume of over 500 pages, equal to an octavo of over 1,000 paves, most eminent urtists, and will be —furnished to subscribers only. LIFE ASsURANCE.—Don’t be deceived by the representations of agents but examine the conditions of the policy before taking it. There is only one Insurance Company that issues policies which recommend themselves to a mining community, and that is the North America Life Insurance Company, of New York. ‘These policies are not forfeited in case a man. is compelled to change his business tothat of mining, blasting, running an engine or any other business deemed hazaruous. The North America is a purely mutaal Life Insurance Company. 8. B. Davenport, of this city, is agent for Nevada, Piacer and Sierra counties.
