Srrock Iv.—Neal & Flynn whio are working one of tho Florida serice of ledgos, etruck some very good ore yesterday. They havo drifted from their incline a distance of 160 ft. to get what appears to be a fine and extensive body of ore. WASHOE. Savace Mixe.—Virginia Lulerprise, Jan. 26: The new main incline of the Savage ie 180 ft. below the tenth level, 40 ft. above which it starts. Tho incline is rnn upon an angle of abont 31° and has, therefore, uttuined a perpondicular depth of about 100 ft. At this point they are engaged in putting in tho station timbers for the eleventh level, which will bo 1,100 ft. in depth below the surfaco. Whilo the drift ou the oleventh is bcing run, work will"be continued on the incline tillit has reached tho fnrther perpendienlar depth of 100 ft. Parke & Bowre’s mill, on Six-mile Canon, is stoadily running on tailings, of which tlicy have an almost inexhaustiblo supply. Eureka Mitn.—Rapid progress is being made in the work of setting up the big Enreka mill on Carson River, Enuarcixa.—The Crown Point ehaft is being enlarged by the addition of another hoisting compartment; this gives the shaft three compartments. Good progress is being made in putting in the two new enginoe. When they start up again they expect to take out from 600 to 700 tons of oro per day. Ovnin Mixe.—Sinuking upon the main ehaft was discoutinued at the depth of 1,250 ft. Drifting at the 1,100 ft. level is being vigorously proseeutcd. The rock, which was so hard at first that hut ahout 3 ft. per day conld be made, is of a more favorable character, and the drift is being pushed ahead at the rate of 4 ft. each day. Some workis being done on the 700-ft. level. WHITE PINE.

Fnroaces are in course of erection in the vicinity. Scnepn Cnzex.—Col. O’Connor’e agent arrived nt Schellburn last week, and arrangements have been made to commonce operations on the mines; and also for the bnilding of mills, at an early day. New shafts and cuts have been started up on locations heretofore unprospected. Arizona. Mines anp Mininc.—Prescott Miner, Jan. 13: Porter and Moreland arrived from the Gila mines on Tuesday. The most valuable ledges which had beeu discovered up to the time of their departure, were the Silver Queen, in tho Pioneer Dist.; the. Cur, in Nevada dist., and the Yellow Jacket, just ontside the latter dist. and close to the waters of the Gila. The Silver Queen is 18 ft. in thickness, and traceable for several miles. The ore containing only a mere trace of lead, with a very large proportion of copper. The Cur is likewise 18 ft, in thiekness; a fissure vein which crops out holdly for a considerahle distanee. The ore is of different character from that of the Silver Queen and not nearly so rich. The Yellow Jacket is a new discovery and had not heen prospected. The operations in Welker and Hassay ampa Dist. heve heen unusually active. The work of taking out ore from the Benjamin, for shipment to S. F., is progreseing apece. Mr. Kelly gives it as his opinion that the 7 tons which are to be sent to 8. F. as one of the conditions of the sale, will yield the purchase money, $15,000. The Cornucopia, Prescott and Bismarck, on the dividing ridge hetweon Hessayampaand Walker Dists., and only afew miles from the Benjemin, will he offered for The Sheridan and Mitchell) sale in 9. ‘F,, next month, In Wallapai Dist., the Keystone ledgo, week. A drift was etarted from the hottom . the principal one yet discovered, is considof the Sheridan shaft, running west to the spar seam. The foremau is of the opinion that all the ehefts will he connected in two weeks from date. San Juan pet Nro.—There is a force of 5 mon at work sinking. The ore pitches off at an angle of 45 degrees, and has the appearance of forming into a true fissure vein. Average assays of the first-class ore go $250 to theton. Thereare ahout 70 tons on the dump, which asseys $60 and $70 to the ton. Norra Avrora.—Since last report the force of men in the Risdele has heen increesed. There isa fine body of highgrede ore in eight in the south end of the chember. The south drift of the Lady’e chember is showing ahout es usual.

Szconp Ex.or OnteinaL HippEn TreasuRE.—A drift wes started up recently, running in a eoutherly direction from the hottom of the Anchor tunnel incline. There is a hody of fair ore in eight. The drift running east from the uorth sheft isin a distance of 19 ft., with ledge matter and black spar in the face, Gey. Lee.—A drift will stert up about the 25th of the month, to rnn from the ore chemher eastward, and following the sper seam, carrying ore eaeh side. There are about 200 tons of low-grade ore on the dumps, which will be milled inthe spring. Onieinat Hoppen Treasure.—A force of men will be put on when the ore broken down is cleared eway. The Big Smoky mill ie running on Co. ore ae ueuel. Eneruarpt.—Mention was made last week of the West drift running from tho Keystone shaft. A body of low-grade ore is in eight in the drift. The work of running ahead was stopped last week, and a ehaft started down, for the purpose of testing the depth of the ore body. Siuver Wave.—Work in the Cheuoweth, Lyford, end Perkins ehafts goee ahead ae usual. The Roswell chaft, near the sonth line of the Original Hidden Treasure, is ered to he a true fissure vein. Excavations have heen made on it to the depth of 45 ft. in which it continues to carry a uniform ,width of from 4 to 6 ft., the ore worked having yielded from $700 to $800 per ton, in silver. The ledge has beon traced and located for a mile. The Tiger mine is improving rapidly. Col. Heed and G. W. Bowers, this week, hrought over with them, specimens of ore showing about es much silver as ore. Jackson & Co., are still running their mill. Poland and Gaviu are fixing up for arastraing ore on upper Lynx creek. The Vulture Co. are doing well.

The Washington’ will be worked from this on, work heving heen commenced to-day. Mining and prospecting are being pursued quite lively on all eides. There are more than fifty ledges heing worked in this dist. Three assays of rock from the Fairfield went from $200 to $400 to the ton. The 5-stamp mill here h## uot heen running recently. The cause, is a want of chemioals. At Parkerville, an effort will be made to work arestras. Several diecoveries of rich galena ore have heen made here. The Keystone has 2 shafts, one 40 ft. and the other 50 ft. Colorado. Carrpou.—Cerihou Post, Jan. 13: Parker & Bailey have taken author contract on Wahash, to sink 13 ft. which will meke the whole depth 60 ft. Thie ehows constant improvement ae depth ie gained.
