ANDREW JOHNSON, eamia — ~~ QUAntZ EXCIrEMENT.—Tho prospect is that the quartz interestvin this vicinity is about to take a jump in the right direction. Woe have said, on a dozen ar“more occa. sions, and we said it from a knowledge of the country, that untold wealth. still. re» mained in the matrix in this neighborhood, and that if enterprise were rightly directed in some of our hills it would soon be brought to light. The time has come for us to see the realization of the fict.~ Within a few days developments have taken place that give promise of greut influence on the industrial interests of this vicinity. No less. than three mille for crushing quartz are: abont to be erected near MeCarty’s Ranch, where excellent’ leads of quartz have recently been discovered. ‘The leads are well éefin: ‘ed and beautiful ones of great richness.— So say our best quartz miners, Several —well known late operators in’ the Gould aud Curry “have interested themselves the new leads and are going to make Nevada their head quarters for a time. They have invested in the mines,and are. taking steps for the erection’ of nitty. “A French company will puf up a mill, a company called the “Merrimac,” pany in which some of our well known eit igzoha ave lntercated, Will erect milla and all will be completed jmuniediately. We Jearn », from good. sources that there is a great 4 tbundance of rock of good quality, enough to keep a large number of stampers employs ed, and that the prospects are more _ than usually bright. The range of-hills between this place and Grass’ Valley ia full of quartz and another comveina, and info the ridge the newly discoyered lodea run and in the direction too, we are informed, of the celebrated Veit of ~~-Sneath-&-Chay, -on-Gubl debt. Having some knowledge of the locality, we can say that the country in that direcs . tion is as rich in gold-bearing rock” ag any portion of California with which we have an sequaintance, and we really think that veins, yielding fortunes to many men. We trust the indications—erebut a foretaste of what isto be proven, for many reasons, one of which is, the employment it may furnish the poor fellows who have. been thrown back upon us disappointed with their at. tenips to reach a fortune or even wages in the country of some silver and considerable sage brush and alksli. en ne Tue Scientific Press, edited by Warren B. Ewer, fermerly of this county, is about to be enlarged. —We are glad to hear of the prosperity of the Press. for it is decidedly the best mining journal ever published the Pacific conet. Every one interested in mining should subseribe for it—y single number is worth the price of # year's subscription. Or the three hundred delegates -at the Radical Deniocratic Convention which noms inated Fremont in Cleveland, one hundred and two were sent from the city uf St-Lous a At the forthcoming Fourth of July celebrationin Virginia City, i T.
