ANOTHER SUCCESS.—Mr. Frary, one of the proprietors of the Lawyer ledge, called on us a few days ago. Eighteen days' run on Lawyer ore cleaned up a few days ago. We were unable to learn the figures, as quartz operators and mill men appear peculiarly reticent in regard to letting it be known what amount they take out at a clean up. But we are satisfied from what we could gather that the quartz has paid even better than they expected, and that they are perfectly satisfied with their first run. There are at present ten men at work in the mine and four more will be added to the force during the present week. The surface, and the vein is on an average 3½ feet in width, of quartz rich in free gold and contains no sulphurets. The mill, which is a ten-stamp one, was put up by Mr. Hepworth and it runs like clock-work, evidencing the work of a master mechanic in putting it in running order. We are glad to hear of the assured success of this enterprise as in the successful working of our quartz depends the future prosperity of our Basin camps.
