THe CopPER AT SWEETLAND.—We have
frequently mentioned the specimens of copper ore which have been found in the claims
of Messrs. Hitchcock, Dixon & Co., at Buckeye Hill, near Sweetland. The following
remarks concerning this copper, written by
Mr. G. F. DEETKEN, a gentleman-well known
ii this community as a competent metallurgist andmining engineer, will be read with
interest:
“The claims turned out lately a considerable quantity of metallic copper, besides the
usual quantity of gold dust. The two bars
of copper, smelted: at the office in town, were
cast from dust. taken from these diggings:
It appears that the metallic copper, in fine
scales, occurs i@{ a clay slate, which has slid
down from the high rim of bedrock, surround
ing the gold bearing gravel bed. In washing
the gravel. around the slide, the decomposed
slate crurnbles to pieces and the metallic copper. therein contained, finds its way to the
rifles of the sluices.
per the slate is charged. with capper pyrites,
partly’ decomposed, and oxides’ of copper.
The bedrock is covered by an efflorescence
of carbonate of copper. ,
‘A short time ago, I read in one of our
papers, speaking in -reference to these diggings, that in getting further into the gravel
bed, the gold therein found gradually turned
into copper. This apparently singular circumstance is easily explained by the fact that
near the slide, where a great quantity of this
copper bearing slate is washed, the quantity
of gravel being small in proportion, the decreasé in the yield of gold and increase in
that of copper is very visible ; but on leaving
the slidesand entering the channel, the cop
per gradually disappears, whilst the gold
again assumes its original fineness.
“ Besides copper, Messrs. Hitchcock, Dixon
'& Co lately struck a small vein of ore which
they mistook for plumbago, a specimen of
which can be seen’ in the mineralogical cabyut at Blaze’s Saloon. But on close examination at tie Nevada Metallurgical Works, this
ore was found to-be a first rate quality of
binexyd of manganese. The company is now
taking out some of the ore, for which they
have a ready sale at 4 cents per pound on the
ground, the ore’being used for metallurgical
purposes in Névada. The veins of manganese
vary in thickness, and are imbedded in the
came slide in which the copper slate is found.
Phe manganese is generally pure;. but cecasivtally the vein of pure ore gives out and
/quartz, charged with the ore, takes its pl:ce
The dip of tae vein appears to be about 70°
to the orig nally horizontal layers of the clay
slate.”
lie
[@ Aleck Griffin seems determined to
tring down.the prices of grub and whisky as
well as the price of staging. Not content
with his performances on the Grass Valley
road, his Sacramento stage, which leaves
Grass Valley at 6 in the morning and gets to
Sacramentw by 54 in the evening, takes passéngers down for $5 froa Grass Valley and
$5 50 from Nevada.
But Alecs‘s Hotel, which we understand
he intends to start shortly in Grass Valley,
is going to put the price of feed a little lower.
than anything known in California yet. The
rates of board at this future establishment,
we understand, will be $4 50 per week. We
and abundant, although our “devil” says that
if he ever stops there when he goes to Grass
Valley, he will not be disappeinted if be
shouldn't find any pates truffes on the table.
In connection with the hotel will be a bar, of
course, where liquor will be dispensed at 5
cents per glass. At how many paces it wil
be warranted to kill we have not yet heard,
but suppose it. will have about the range of
rifled cannon.
Fire in Grass VALLEY.—The house of
Thomas Moran, neay the. corner of School
and Main streets, was totally consumed on
Thursday night. The National states that
the fire was accidental-and that the family of
Mr. Moran, who were roused from sleep by
the fire, had a narrow escape. The furmture of Mr Cohn, next door, was much injured in hastely. removing it. The house,
however, was saved.

“ ACARD.
»Te the People of Gras#s Valley and
Nevada,”
I have been running a line of stages into your
towns since the first of June, thereby. reducing
the fare to Marysville from six dollars to three.
My little quill/wheel upposition caused the fare
between your towus and Sacramento to be reduced from ten to seven dollars. I have neyer
callcd on your patronage, as 1 could do well haul
ing fruit and you could do well riding with the
California Stage Company for one dollar, which
‘company, I hope, gave you good satisfaciion, es
pecially that portion of you who were liberal
enough to pay me two dollars and ride with that
mpany. Ifnow ask you to consider my case
and ride with me, or pay me sufficiently, and you
can alway’ ride to Marysville for three dollars.
I do not invend to lose any money running stages
for any community ; . worked for my money and
I do intend to keep it. It is better for you to try
and pay me to keep the fire to a reasonable
price at all times than to pay one dollar to day
and have six dollars impoged on you to-morrow.
I shall stock the road from Marysville to Sac
ramento on the 10th of September next, and then
I will take you through from Nevada to Sacra
mento for six dollars; but without your good
will and some of your money, I cannot stay with
you. MARYSVILLE, Sept. Ist, 1561.
