Fur many years pasl coal has been kiinwn lu exist at Hock Creek, il having been discovered by ininers while wurking placer nr hydraulic diggings. Nuw, however parlies nre applying fur licenses tn prnspecl, and before lung the coal reefs which undoubtedly underlie lhe whole nf the Keltic Kiver valley, will receive expert attention, nnd lie made to contribute tn the usefulness aud wealth nf those who are strenuously endeavoring In develop this portion uf British Columbia. Those who nre sceptical as In the suitability of our soil and climate fur the growing of fruits, more especially apples, should have taken a look at Mr. Geo. Wlielao's orchard in the Mission valley befure the fruit was plucked, and it is needless tu say their doubts wuuld sunn have been dispersed, as from mil a great, number nf trees Mr. Whelan was enabled this fall to gather nearly ten tons of very prime apples, whicli at the present state of the market is considered, or rather is worth some Ic. to 5c. per pound. Two acres of trees in full hearing would readily yield this amount of fruit, su il is easily tn be seen and calculated that, growing apples at. $250 per acre is a more profitable business than growing wheat at $20 per acre. How lung will it. take the average fanner, possessed uf lbe Messrs.

The reported iind nf a gnnd ledge of nre no the Scotia, iii Deadwood camp, published ill our last week's issue, bus turned out uol in lie upon this cluim but un lhe adjoining nne, the Gem The error occurred owing to the I'u a I that the men engaged upnu lbe ore is situal three or four miles abuve Falls, nml is owned by Mi Thomel und li Stuart.
