The most extensive enterprise in the locality. is the San Francisco Copper mige, on Diy creek close to Spenceville. About fifty men, of} which perhaps one-half are Chinese, ave employed im and around the claim. The latter are prineipally utilized in roastitig ores, an oecupation that it is claimed the whites do not take to kindly as immediate contact with the sulpharous fugges is exttemely demoralizing to them.
