Granite Creek. An effort is being made by mining men audseiilers in the Granite creok country 0 lir.ve lhe conned ion made between the ml of.the present wagon road alThyiines r-.iuch and Uranitc cr-ick, via Otter tint A passable road could be completed for a small amount, some say as low as ^I.OtX), and it would give at once a grenlly desired connection. 15/ a concerted movement ihe government could bo prevailed upon to assist this scheme and it would mid a connecting link to a region that is now nurae'i*-*- a great deal of meritorious attention. •__('i-anile creek tif old wns a great producer uf placer gold mid tlie new hydraulic works which have . been recently planted there make it Imperative Hint 11 road bu buill from some near point over which supplies and material can lie movtil. Xciirly the whole ofihe pastsea- aon was occupied by Mr. Scott in gelling in his pipe autl supplies far the Anglo- American Co., while, if a road had been made, only a few wcoks would have been consumed. Mr. Stevenson bad much the same Iroublo in getting bis material ou lhe ground lor the t.levcnson mine, and after those two geutlemen come, n number of other-! who arc delaying work siinpty because of iho hcrcu-anenu task of getting their supplies on to llio ground. Local jealousies should not stand lu lit-- way of lhe main proposition and Ihat is to assist liie mining men to get llieir plants inlo operation. Only the building of good substantial roads will do this and no ccm- muniiy can afford 10 have years go by which only bud to keep back improvements because of counter opposition. Build roads and let the great mining industries get securely implanted and a wave of prosperity will roll over every community Involved. Qucsnelle. Lasl week ihe Indian agent, Mr. Bull t-f Clinton, vlbilcd Qucsuollo on hi. rounds imiong his wards Mr. Bell reports everything satisfactory on tin; several rescrva- Uoiih he liaaviatled. Anew chief has been elected nl Soda Creek and the cere niony 01' iiinnguraiion will be performed few weeks by .sending the new chief his commission. Tlie new dredger under the suporlnlend- eney of Colonel Underwood is progressing rupldly. Tlie foundation is being laid on Iho left bank of llic Quesnelle. Agangol en or twelve men la engaged on the iriidner and another cang is al present taking out logs some distance up ibc river. The sawmill is busy, worked by unit her active gang. So iuftUci'3 look bright for iln- future. Thero are also in prospeel llirceor four other dredgers to be built to work tlie inexlintialiblo gravel beds of llic Qncsno'lo. These schemes e cairkil on liy men of capital, expert* ice and cnergy,ami failure is not in their icabniary. In liie next Tew years, comparatively sneaking, tlie liuesnetlc river will be dredged lo its source. The old Hme arasta la \\ Hung of the past and the Hive melhoi'siire replaced by science and Intelligence. At present Colonel Underwood roprcB.nta all ihe qualities required lor tlie development of the rich mineral deposits of this region. Itiisiness In the general stores is brisk nnd the hotels arc well patronized. The claim across thc Fraser owned by Mr. Law ia about lo bo vigorously worked and preparation is being made lo commence tlie opening of tbe ground al an early date. This location is supposed to be no old channel of the Fraser umi very rich prospects give every encouragement to expend energy and capital on ils devel- incut. Two old Caribooites, John Cameron of Victoria and Alex Cameron of Vaucouver, have arrived down by today's stage from Barkervlllo. Mr. J. Cameron reports thai the weather the iust six weeks has been the lineal ho had ever experienced iu Car boo during this season of iho year. Thc inunl mining news from that interesting region is cheering. Tenuis arc arriving daily with Iroli for the upper counlry ami fall supplios in considerable quantities arc stored.

Around Boston there s.re places where il is auld tlmt n man might earn twenty-flve rents a day washing the gnivels for gold. Gold occurs even in the sen, whii'h contains something less than one grain <»f mild to the ion ul sea water. Many devices liavoboen InventPd for the purpose of obtaining "this gold from sea witter, hut none have proved practicable, and it is not likely that nny ever will prove practicable, These occurrences do nni ci ins til uio ores or gold, Kir lho metal is in tco small quantitle.-*, An orool -fold runsl enntalu sulllelent inei.il to pav lhe cost nf traction, This gold dlsBcmlualed llirough Ihe roek docs sometimes occur in paving quanllticBi and then we havo a true gold ore. Such brps occur In somooftbo South* ern atalcs and elsewhere. Some of the deposits of tho Black Bills of Dukdtaare or this class. In these ores llio gold usually is iu invisible particles, so ihat in appearance the ore is merely a common slate sandstone or other lock, The cjoUl is con centratcd from ibis aluta of dissemination Into ore deposits hy nulural agencies which ure always acting. These ore deposits ure ol three cIhbscb*—First, iisso ei.led with silver, copper or lead, In deposits wh.ich ure primarily worked fi these latter metals; .ccond, in qimr velua; third, in gravels which are derived from these quarlz veins, llio placer dopuB lis. The (list class should bu studied as deposits ot cupper,silver ir lead, although very considerable amounts of gold are oh- lained from them. VVe will uot diseum them here. The quarlz veins I cannot give you a definition of a vein, for geologists are uot Lgreed upon this point. The gold bearing veins arc fissure vcinf, a fissure vein Is a rent or fissure in the surface of the earth, often extending to very groat depths, which has become filled wilh minerals deposited fr-mi solution in water. Sometimes tho fissure reaches n roptcn ni fused rock, or rock kept from fusion only by the weight of lhe overlyine; mass. The fissure Ihen fills with the molten material, which cools therein. This is not u vein, for In a vein the minerals nro deposited from wider, but a dyke. These dykes neyer contain ores of gold. More oflon the fissure does nol reach such mol. ton mnterinl, nnd tills with minerals de* pi-Kile I from waler. ll is then a vein. Very mnny iiiineiiila occur In veins. Foi-'tunatoly gold bearing veins aro quite slmiile. Two minerals form Almost the whole of llieir cojilents. These nro quarlz end pyrllo. Quarlz is a hard, white brli- tlfl mineral and Is tho chief couBtlluentof the veins Thu other common mineral is pyritc, which may or may not be present. II is brittle, bright yellow, ami always ou' curs mi crystals. It is often mistaken by the inexperienced for gold, hence Us nick- nnuio "fool's gold." The difference la very great. The pyritc Is bo hard Ihat U can Bcarcoly bo scratched by ihe kullo, nol nl all unless the knife be ii good one, while gold Is very son. Il occurs in peculiar crystal shapes which gold does not assume. It crumbles to a dark pow.r [dates. The gold occuis disseminated throughout die t|imrl_ run) pvrilos, usually in invisible pariicle8tacalc8,gralu3,threads, fdc. Oiher mlnerala are often present in smaller quantities, Thu origin nf fissures wn-*dis_r_-_d by Prolossiir Salisbury in nur last lecture, We will not consider how lho minerals got into them. They are carried, as I have s.iid, In solution in waler nnd deposited there. It sounds Improbable, bul (hero is nothing Ihut water will not dissolve, though often in excessively minute quim lilies.

Thus the vein Is loi'liuil. In Bnmo pladea.ns In Ihu Southern 'taicH, llioro occurs anoihor kind o( gold, bun ring vein.

Veins aro divided inlo two parts hy the 'waler level," a fact of lhe greatest Impor- nncu lo lhe miner. The water level is lhe upper stirl'ace o\' the water standing in III. grouud. This is shown by the height al which water stands in wells. Below ihe waler level the quartz Is tiBunlly firm and compact. Thepyrite when present is bright and unaltered. Tho gold is largely —not completely—In the pyritc, and so completely enclosed thai no amount of pulverizing will free all nf tt so that it may he sayed by the ordinary process of mil* !in_-. The gold is not chemically combined, but disseminated in very fine threads, scales, crystals, etc., which may ba seen when the pyrile is destroyed by acids. Above thc water level the air has ncccs-;, and the vein is more or less decomposed. Thepyrite isa combination of iron and sulphur, the iron rusls exactly as metallic iron would,and ihe yellow or brown r*.i-', known to geologists 113 llmonitu, stains the quarlz yellow. The sulphur also burns and go?* nwii; in solution, The quartz becomes I-nnoj combed wit'i cavities where tlm pyrin- and olher minerals have been removed, The gold remains beh'nd as small particles euclosed in the quarlz and iu lhe cavities. Ii is much more easily extracted from lliis weathered vein than from Ihe unaltered portions below. Indications nl richness of veins are very uncertain, Tiie only one at all sure is an assay. As I have said, gold occurs chiefly associated with quarlz nml pyrllo. The pyritc n * beul-.eni In rich veins the quartz '.-,-■ he ilisrol ■•:'. and mixed with nun ■ • ii!e- I lit grea?y ap pearing quail is ■-•<.•« ifcely lo be rich than oil •• tml h pi collar handed ap- pcttram • may also indlcatu riuhne_a A pure, hard, quurtz is likely lo be pine These Indications are of very little value, ns exceptions are extreively numerous. Pyr to which Is fine grained Is apt lobe richorthac liian the coarsely crystalline. When gold occurs in graln3 visible to ilie naked eve {"specimen gold") it uav ho inken as evidence that ihe veiu U |in.lw- bty poor, allhnugh such veins:.! limns prove very rich. Very little dependenc can bo placed upon Ihese Indications. More reliable Information may be nb- talncd from the position of veins. These veins occur almost exclusively in mountainous regions, because the forces by which Ihey aro formed, lho lorccs originating fissurei anil those causing t!ie circa • lationof underground waters, are more cllve hero thin elsewhere. There Is no great mountain system In the world in Which ores or gold ilo not occur. I do not mean Ihat gold occurs in c. cry mountain or in every ranee or mountains, but somewhere in evciy system. Veins occur in systems, each vein para- lei lo lho others. If one vein of a system Is rich, lhe parnlell ones nrc probably rich also'; while veins of n different system in* lerscctlng these would probably be different ni contents-and perhaps poor. Iftho contents ol both systems nrc the same, nnd buth nre rich, then where iwo cross the vein stuff will bu richer than either alone. Tho nature of lho surrounding rock Influences the deposits in the vein. Where a vein passes through two rocks, say slate and granite, ll may be rich In lhe slate and poor in lhe granite, or vise versa. The deposits of ore iu Ihe bed is very Irregular. It occurs often only hi purlieu, tar purls of lhe vein, or in "pockets" or In "chimneys" or "chutes," which run through the vein in various ways. Gold occurs In all geological formations. It is not confined chletly to any ono age, as was formerly supposed. It occurs among rocks of many kinds. One Is struck, however, by the frequency with which bio deposils occur between wnllsr-f slate. The placer deposits are formed from the d.Stl'llotlon or the veins, nnd are never found fur from them. Atlhesuifacevelns, in common with all rocks, iito subject to disintegration. Ily the notion of heat and coal, of frosl nud iitln, and iu general by foi ken into small arfglflar frn-.-ments, mg sand and grave'. Th1-* snnd and gravel is washed down (he hill side by ruins and al renins, and Ihusthe deposils if gravel in the valleys are formed. Win n these gravela contain Ihp debris from gob'* ben ring veins lliey ihefnsolvea musl he gold-bearing and constitute (ho placers, The gold in (ho pheers na more concentrated oflen Uinu In tho veins because of the sorting power of the. water, by which the heavy gold is left near ils source, or Jropped wherever lho current slacken'', while Ihe lighter gravels are carried further nlong. Tho rich pincers in the streams or in gravels left where streams formerly flowed may be worked, and the poorer grnyola be loft. These are the shallow placers. An interesting modification ol lhe gravel deposils is lhe deep-Boated placer. Placer deposits were formed in limes long past In stream beds. After ihey were formed, a groat volunnlc crop- lion occurred and great streams of lava reached thc valleys nnd fillet! Ihem, com plelely destroying the streams or turning Ihem into new channels. Since Ihen the dlBlalogralhm of ihe rock and tha consequent dcgrndntiou or tho surface has continued, lint lhe hard lava In.* resisted lliis process until what were the bills have been worn to valleys, and tho valleys, pro- lecied bv their lavn caps, have become hills, These are now mined hy tunnelling inlo the gravel Irom Ihe side ofthe hill.

From every paper in Kootenay is gleaned cheering news of bright future prospects, lt is pleasant to realize that ihe people who have invested their money in quartz claims have good reasons to lliink they will have good returns. It does not cause people in this part ol the province to he a particle jealous, but on the other hand, as n unit, the people here, congratulate themselves thut Koolenay is a part of British Columbia. It does not even givo ono a cold chill to read in thc Nelson Tribune the follow'llg! '■While not taking from Cariboo nny of its reputation us a mining couiitr-', it must be admitted that its future is not ns promising ns that of LCooteiiay. In the past, Curil-oo" gulches produced millions of dollar in gold, &c." We luive had occasion before to tako tha Tribune to tusk I'or its jealousy of Cariboo, Yale and Lillooet, but will refrain iu future from arguing such nu absurd proposition, We say absurd, for lite reason that there is no question of tho richness nnd value of the mines in either Kootenay, or Caiihoo, Vale and Lillooet. Tho Senlile Times in discussing the relations of European aud American Bpances says: "We believe thut it is a groat error to suppose, thai European financiers favor a monetaiy policy fortius country which is to our disadvantage. jfusiiicss relations between lho various milieus nro so interwoven that when a great country like ours is not prosperous the eil'eet is Ml all over the world. Thy financial kings of Kuropo know thnt they can mnk more money in this country when we have good limes than when business is depressed. A prominent London linancier who viftited the coast lately lurid thlit investors would not let their money out on the sceurily of property, winch they might havo to owr, Inter, He referred to farm inortguges and said it was a great error to suppose that tho loan companies of Europe, which put out money on farms wanted to own the farms. All they want, he said, is the interest regularly paid and to fuel that tho principal is safe. We have no doubt about this being the correct view of the otisBj ah'dthat tho popular idea thnt the money lords of Europe are seek ing to grind this country down to poverty in order that they may own lhe farms, factories and railways is a mistaken cue.'' Wo (piote, "All they want, ho said, is tho interest regularly, -.to." Now, in those few words winch the Times quotes is contained all there is in the linnnciul relations of the Uvo hemisphere!!. We doubt very much if the foreiah gentleman the Times quoted understood the inward workings ot the scheme for if ho bad ho would not have .tutcd the situation so concisely, Wu do not believe the money lenders of the old would intentionally wreck finances iu the ucw world, but it must be admitted that old country inilueiiccs deliberately set to work to put the new World in a position that would compel it to borrow money lo du business ou. Tlie clo'ctib'ih in the stnle-a Toes lay lasl were n very much Ono sided nlTuir, nearly all g^ng republican. Mr, Cleveland has Wiled Ins usual pro.l.umLioii to enjoin the people to give thanks for his goodness, mercies, &c, which action is regarded as extremely consistent with lhe slate of (fairs on the other side of the line. The recent swell wedding of Miss Consuola Vnnderhill to lho Duke of Marlborough has caused a great com motion among tho social snobs of New York city. If the young folk, wish to get married they should do so, and if Miss Consuln is ol u mind to foo* ihe bills, she should do so. W© see no occasion for nnv criticism on thc notions of either, lio wants money and she wants a title. They both get what they desire.
