The dirt operated upon looks very promi.lD*, and should give n good return at the end of next week. Elevator No. 2 has been ronniDg steadily during the week until Saturday rooming, when I wßßbed down and took down ttie elevator, for the purpose of putting In the sinking elevator to get on to the Bottom, 'iba returns from <N0.21 coniider very good, as the principal of the dirt put through was that layer of drift. I may say I have got down to another layer of wain under the drift, but I have not been able to prospect It yet. I hope to do so during next week."
