Tre Opair Mine.—A few days since we visited the celebrated Ophir mine, located near Grass Valley, and under the managetneot of Capt. Lee. The Ophir is one of the. largest and most promising mines in the State, and Capt. Lee has recently built a magnificent thirty stamp mill, and called it the Empire mill. For beauty, power and convenience, this structure surpasses any mill on the Pacific coast. The Ophir mine has been worked for a number of years.— During the Washoe excitement a number of the old owners went off. The miue was not properly worked, and assessments were levied which remained unpaid. The mine was ubder a cloud, the company heavily involved, and the stock was offered at-a very low. figure. At this junction, Capt. Lee ming was une of the best inthe gounty.— stock at holders’ prices, which were very moderate. The Captain went into the incline and after a few weeks sinking struck very rich rock, and. a lirge and well defined ledge, Since-the change of'proprietors the Vicinity of, the mine has entirely changed.— The few di'apidated. structures. huye been removed and hew buildings have been erected. Theold millof six stamps has been kept in constant operation, paying well. all the time, and reck enough is now on the surface. to keep forty stamps running for a long time, if none were taken from the mine. The mine is being worked in, tlie old ineline. A new incline hus been sunk and hoisting works erected, and the mine’is to be opened bya third incline. In this way if any accident should occur and compel the work to} suspend in ong, the other two openings on the ledge would-supply abundance of rock. The Empire mill is the most magnificent. structure of the kind we have ever seen.— The building is so urranged that the stamps can be raised in a few moments. . The mill is a'double one having thirty stamps, and the machinery fur the batteries is separate and distinct, so that one-half may be kept running if necessary. Communication is had between the engine-rovin and battéries ky signal bells. The engine is of one hundred and Tifty horse power. The foundation contains more than six thousand brick cemented, and more than aton of iron is used in bracing the work, _ The balance wheel weighs 17,500. pounds. The cars run rock is thrown into Blake’s rock-breaker which eracks 100 tons per day fine enough fur the batteries, doing the work of a dozen men. The rock after. passing under stamps passes into Belt’s.grinders, where it is reduced to the greatest fineness. From these the pulp passes into the Baux pan, sixteen of which are in use. Five Knox pans and twelve shaking-tables are also used. All this machinery is kept in operation by one engine. Every part of the mill is finished like a parlor, and one can pass to any part of the extensive establishment in a minute. The protection aguinst fire is ample. The structure is suplied with pipes which extend to every part of the building, and in an instant the force pumps can be connected with the engine, und every part of the building Aieded with water. ‘This excelJent mill waégtarted for the first time about ten days since, wad on last Saturday was shut dawn for the purpose of making some improvements in the working of its mon: ster machinery. The will will start again next week. We advise all who desire toe. see mining in its most attractive. form, or who wish to look at magn fice: t wachinery in operation, to visit Capt. Lee’s mill aud nine, The sight 1s worth a seven days’ journey. : / —_——~.
