DeErPtH AND Ontoin oF Donner Laxe.
Mr. Cadwallader, of the Central Pacific
Railroad, has sounded Donner Lake to the
depth of 1,600 feet without finding bottom.
Itis surmised that the lake occupies the
site of a crater of an extiuct volcano; but
as the entire couutry is granite, this caunot
have been a crater of the ordinary volcanic
kind, Lake basins in granite do not take
the circular shape of those owing their origin to volcanic craters. Though granite is
usually considered to be eruptive rock, its
elevation into mountains and the manner
of its eruption in the remotest ages, are
very imperfectly understood. Tahoe and
Donner were formed by similar causes.
Tue Mixers’ Conruicr with the Central
Pacific Railroad Company will be argued
in the Supreme Conrt next term, by
Messrs. McConnell, Hale and Hamilton, on
behalf of the miners. All the mining
camps are making contributions to snstain
their cause agninst the Railroad Company.

HUNGERFORD’S IMPROVED CONCENTRATOR,
For Saving Gold, Sulphurets, Quicksilver, ete.
There is no description of machinery of so mucb importaace to the mining interests of California, at tbe present time,as that for the separation of sulplinrets. Many machines have been tried,
and abandoned ; and none seems to meet the requiremeat of the miniag inlerest so well as that now
patented by Mr. Hungerford, which is au improvement ou the well known Hungerford & Prater Concentrator, with which his name is already so familiar.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
San Francisco, October 19th, 1868.
Mr. M. Huxcerrorp—Dear Sir:—We have had twelve of your Concentrators at work at the
Oneida Mine, Amador County, for about six months. They give entire satisfaction. They are
strong and substantial, requiring, thus far, no repairs, and do their work thoroughly and effectively.
Ata recent clean-up of four o1 them, I found that in four wecks’ time we saved about $500 in free
gold, hesides the sulphurets, or not far from one dollar per ton on the entire crushing of the ten
stamps connected with them. In my opinion, it is for the interest of every quartz mill to have your
machines. Yours, respectfully, GEORGE PRINGLE, Supt. Oncida Mine.
OFFICE OF THE OneIDA Mixixc Compaxry, Jackson, May 18th 1868
Mr. Morean Huncerrorp—Dear Sir:—In regard to the four Huagerford Concentrators that. I hought of Messrs. Goss & Lambard last montb, 1 will say that [ put them up in the
Oneida Mill soon after 1 arrived here, and find that they save sulphurets well and clcan, and work to
my entire satisfuction. I have tried many other concentrators, but these stand np and work better
than any others I have used. 1 have ordered Messrs. Goss & Lamhard to make eight more for me as
soon as possible. Very truly yours, JAMES MORGAN.
Big Oax Frat, May 25th, 1868.—Ar. T. W. Alulford—DearSir:—1 have used two of M. Hungerford's Concentrators in the Rattlesnake Quartz Mill, at this place, and find that they work full as
well as tbey are represented to do. E. M. SMITH, Supt.
.
A. full description of the principle and mode of action of this pan, is described in circulars, which
will he forwarded to aay party who may desire them.
The Hungerford Concentrator has only to he seen to be appreciated. No millman will nse any
other kind after he has‘tried tbat. They are in active operation in mills throughout the State, and
give perfect satisfaction.
1t should be borne in mind that Mr. Hungerford is the ongiaal builder and maker of the celebrated Pratcr Concentrator, and his name should he sufficient guarantee to warrant the public in cxamiuiag his new machine before purchasing elsewhere. .
In future these Pans will be manufactured by Gonparp & Co., at the Pacific Iron Works, San
Francisco, which is a guarantee that they will be built in the most substantial manaer.
These Paus may be seen at the Pacific lron Works, Virst street, near Howard, San Francisco.
