Weekly Trinity Journal

Redding's Bar.—A correspondent there says that although Redding's Bar does equal the "fabled regions of romance" in wealth, it is still a very prosperous place. He does not know of so much good paying ground within the limits of a mile, anywhere else on Trinity river. At Redding's and Turner's Bars, there are four large wheels for raising water, built at a cost of eighteen thousand dollars, besides several ditches from Weaver and Redding's creeks. Still there is not water enough to supply the miners there. Harnich & Geiring are working ground that pays $30 to the hand, daily. Every claim opened is paying well. There is also a large body of rich ground waiting to be supplied by the Trinity River Canal, and which cannot be supplied from any other source. Our correspondent wants to know why the moneyed men of Weaverville do not consider their own interests, and assist in the development of the mineral resources of the county.
