eases = Aevada Democrat. ——~LOCAL MATTERS, Nevapa Quartz Mintno Co.—Mr. Soggs, the superintendent of this company’s works, has furnished us some interesting statistics of their quartz crushing operations, for the past year. ‘The company’s works, as the most of our readers are aware, are located on Deer creek, avout a mile below Nevada. The mill has twelve stamps, and attached to it are five Chile mills, three Bonham arrastras, and six Bradford’s shaking tables. During the year ending the 28th of February last, they crushed 3,735 tons of rock, yielding $60,333. They lost twelve and a half weeks’ time during the year, from short water and floods. The ledge is what is commonly known as a sulphuret ledge, containing very little free gold, and is only made to pay by the employment of machinery. The weight of the amalgam taken up was 15,780 ounces, of which 3,268 was from the batteries, 8,697 ounces from Chile mills, 2,626 from the Bonham machines, 950 from the Bradford tables, and 240 from coppers, etc. The retorted weight was 3,715 ounces, averaging, in net val‘ue over charges, $17 15 per ounce or $3 81 per ounce of amalgam. During the month of March and up to the 26th of the present month, they crushed 870 tons of rock and teok up 4,392 ounces amalgam, (415 ounces retorted in March and 547 in April) worth about $17,000. The old Bunker Hill Co. failed on this same ledge jin 1852, having expended $80,000. They expected to extract the gold by smelting the rock, and for that purpose erected an expensive stack similar to a glass house. Machinery does the business now that fire failed to do then. The company purpose erecting adcitional works for “their sulphurets and tailings, of which they have a large amount on hand. They have been less ‘than two years in their present location, having formerly occupied and run a steam mill on the top of American Hill. The present mill is run by water power. They have over a mile of tunnels, and the rock is delivered at the mill by cars running on an incline from the tunnels, ‘The company employ on an average forty hands and run day and night, and the expenditures are large for iron, oil, castings, lumber, timber, etc. The concern is now paying large dividends to its five fortunate owners. Sovrn Yura Ganat.—The South Yuba Canal Company, having completed the repairs on their upper ditch, or the canal, as they call it, turned the water in on Sunday last, and are now running about 3,000 inches, which is divided between the Omega, Quaker Hill, and Chalk Bluff mines. On the 10th of September last, the water was turned out of the upper ditch, for the purpose of making some necessary repairs, with the intention of running a full supply during the winter. About the time the ‘repairs were completed, the dam at the head of the ditch was carried away by the flood in December. Anew dam was immediately commenced, and nearly completed, when it was carried off again by the January flood, and the ditch was considerably damaged by slides. In consequence of the continued and severe storm, the work of repairing damages was partially suspended for a time, but was resumed again early in February, and the ditch is now ia better condition than ever before. The branch <litches were not much injured by the heavy rains, and the company have thus been able to furnish the miners around Nevada with a constant supply of water from Deer creek and other small streams. Max-Day.—There is now a prospect that we shall have pleasant weather on the first of May, in whieh event it will be a regular gala day. The children of the Methodist Sunday School will meet at the church early in the morning, from whence they will proceed to Hixson’s Grove, where the usual May-Day exercises, such as crowning the queen, ete., will be held. The German Gesangverein Harmonia (Glee Club) will celebrate theday by apic-nicat the Glenbrook Race course, to conclude with a ballin the evening. The mensbers of the club Start for the pic-nic grounds at eleven o’cloek in the forenoon, and they have extended a general invitation to the citizens of Nevada and Grass Valley to participate in the celebration. The Nevada Cadets also purpose taking partin the exercises, and will make their first appearance &$ @ company, on parade, on that day. —— Rvwor.—There was a mumor in town this morning, started doubtless by some wag, that the Monitor had been captured by the Merri mac. The report was, that the Merrimac Steamed up to the Monitor, threw a lasso over her turret and hauled her off to Craney Island. This report was believed by some, but it’s almost useless to say that nothing of the kind 8 been telegraphed across the continent. A Rvsu.—The ladies were out “shopping” Yesterday in full force, making such purchases asthe length of their purses and the extent of their credit would permit. Chinn & Bowley’s Stove was crowded with customers from early morning till late at night, hardly giving them ‘me to take their meals.
