WASHING1ON DISTRICT. ~ The Very Latest From Nevada County’s New Camp--Joke on Journalist a of the equal to the expectations of the most sanguine, and it is now generally conceded tobe one. of the richest gold-bearing Sections in, the State. The general average of the rock will work, by mill procees, from eight to twenty dollars per ton, which: with the strength and number of the veins is a sure indication of the wealth of the district. In all cases the ore has steadily increased in value as depth has been attained; and the opinion largely prevails among men of acknowledged capacity in this branch of industry, that owing to the continuity of the-ledges and the extreme width of the mineral belt there will eventually b: as ‘deep mining in this district as in any other part of the State. During the past few days I pered sonally visited nearly if not quite all of the mines, both developed and undeveloped, within certain boundaries in this district, commencing on the south at the head of Diamond creek, on the west at the mouth of Canyon creek, on the north at Canyon creek and the Lindsay mine, and on the east at a point-about-one mile and a half above the mouth of Fall creek. The distance from east to west is about three miles, and from north to south about the same distance. Within that area nearly all of the most valuable mines are located. The first mine I visited was the IXL, located at the head of Diamond creek. Their ledge is small, but well ‘defined, as gold could be seen in almost every piece of-rock taken froth the dump. The company have a number one 5-stamp mill ruaning steadily, with all the improvements for saving the gold, sulphurets, etc. John Deardoff is their present superintendent. The old Last Chance mine, conrsidered to be one of the richest in the district, lies just to the norih of the [XL, and at present is idle, though work is expected to be started ‘up on it some time this summer. This property belongs ‘to Messrs. Webber. and Haggin of San Francisco, owners of the Yuba mine, and they offer it for sale at a réasonable figure. — At the Cornucopia and Secret Treasure they are working night and day sinking their shait. They have it now down about seventy character of rock, as gold can be freély seen in many pieces taken from the dump pile. Their new mill isnot running at present, but it is not for the want ofore to work, asthey have in the mill and on the dumps from one to two hundred tons ready for crushing. At the Yuba mine, seven hundred feet south from the mill, they are down two hundred feet. That is their lowest level. At that point they have a twelve foot vein, and a large portion of the rock shows well in free gold and galena. Mr. Webber informs me that the mine never looked as well as at the present time. An additional ten stamps is to be added to the mill as soon dsit can be done conve.iently, making twenty-five in all. Atthe Eagle Bird, on the two ‘hundred foot level the ledge is from from fifteen to eighteen feet wide and ali good paying ore, and a good deal of it shows rich in free gold. Itissaid that twenty more stamps will be added to the will during the summer, making forty in all. . The Waters mine is located about one thousand feet above the Eagle Bird. It has a tunnel in on the ledge about three “hundred feet, carrying a vein of from three to four feet thick which shows well in sulphurets and free gold. Mr. Waters has out about one hundred and fifty tons, which will average at the lowest calculation eight ~~ ‘THERE will be a social Tuesday n‘ght at the Rough and Ready school house for the benefit et Rev.
