Goop Inpicarions.—As an evidence of in
creasing interest.in mining matters, we can
say that our file of valuable communications
from all parts of this State and Nevada is .
more replete than ever hefore. When prospects are hright, the spirit moves, and people .
feel like writing.
Spring Arime.—Since the late heavy rains, .
the foot-hills, and so much of the plains as are
not‘flooded with water, have heen putting on
the green livery of spring, and “ the face of all
nature looks gay.”
