Isold Minin* in tijrprltt.
Entering tho State north of end i
along the Air-Line Railroad itnd ex-1
tending in a belt sixty miles wide,!
northeast and southwest across the |
State from Naeoochee valley, through ,
the counties of Cherokee, Cobb,
Paulding Haralson and Carroll, into
Alabama, is a region which has yield-!
od more than $20,000,000 of gold to ;
mere surface washing, for though ■
good veins exist never has a shaft
been sunk over 100 hundred feet dee]).
All this land was, until 1834, the home
of the Cherokee Indians. Traders
had learned of the Indians tho wealth
over which flowed the waters of tho
Tallulah, tho Toecoa, the Tuguloo,
the Chattooga, the Etowah and the
Amienlola. Iu one year 3,000 people
rushed into the east end of the Cher
okee country. Everywhere ono trav
els through this Georgia gold region
the tale of the past is told on nun-1
dreds of hillsides, on the banks of
many a river, in tho sands of many a I
crystal stream, and the records show
acres that have yielded millions. ;
From or*' in White county was wash
ed by recorded weight over two tons i
of gold, and many a nugget never
saw its way to the books. There I
never were anywhere richer washings i
than Naeoochee, tho old Sixes in
Cherokee, and some places in Car
roll, and most of these places having
ing rested through many a year will
now yield as well us ever". “Gobi j
grows ’ say the old country people, i
No organized system of mining in I
first-class style has ever been carried
out in Georgia. A northern company
erected dams and pipes and Humes
in Naeoochee valley and on Yuhooia
river before the war. and their works
have been a little used since, but
preparations are now making to relit
and work extensively. This hydraul
ic system is undoubtedly the most
profitable, but it destroys much good
land not only in the hills but by
working down sand into the valleys.
Veins of great richness are known to
exist, but no effort is made to work
any in Lumpkin or White counties.
In Hall two companies are at work
and have each a ten stamp mill, while
in C’herokce work is dune on the old
Strickland place, where there is a ten
stamp rail I.
Gold mining in Georgia will pay if ‘
worked in two ways. First., in u small i
wav, bv one or two men, with pans,
rime, sluice-boxes and rockers. I saw
at the Sixes, Cherokee county, a man
at work whose whole outfit could not
have cost. $5. He was not disposed to j
tell what lie was doing, but it was cer
tain that he had gathered full $l5O in
a couple of weeks. Fine gold he did !
not get, as he did not have tiny quick
silver, but he had found one nugget j
weighing sixty-six pennyweights.
There are dozens of places, from Ku
ban county southwest to the Alabama
line, whore two men, working hnrmo- i
niously together, can easily make
from $5 to $25 per day each, and be
also in the finest summer climate in
the world. Their oattlt need not cost
SIOO each, and if they will stick to \
work and eschew whiskey and cards, :
they will have a good balance on the !
credit side of their account at the!
year’s end. Second, gold mining can
be made proiiiubie in Georgia if the
machinery (stamps and eopjier-plate
amalgamators) is run by water pow
er, and if tho business is conducted ,
economically, as any other business i
would be. Gold mining has not been I
profitable to the many, because too
much worthies* patented machinery
has been bought at high prices,
and because the mines have been
worked as a speculation. It is told of'
one superintendent that, coming to a i
rich place in a vein, he actually turn
ed the minors off from it and proved
the mine a failure. There are full a
hundred gold veins in Georgia to-day,
permanent and easily worked, which
will average more per ton of ore than
the best-paying vein of mines of Cal
ifornia, and if worked as a bus
iness they would pay full Sion per
day profit on a machinery investment
of less than $20,000.
In the Naeoochee Valley six genu
ine diamonds have been found, and ;
on the itaeoluniite gold-lead in Hall
county quite a number are claimed to ‘
have been found and lost, but is prob-1
able all were not diamonds. Home,!
however, were genuine.. With all its I
wealth and gold is but a small part,
this region along and north of the
Air Line Koad, ehlelly, we may say,
between the Chattahoochee and the
Etowah, has a climate as healthy as |
any on earth, dry, clear air and pure |
freestone water ; also a soil every- i
where good and astonishingly rich in ;
the valleys, with a primitive tree- !
growth of hickories, oaks and wal
nuts, attractive to the ettler or the \
manufacturer. H. E. C. i

The tax upon some of the land ad- j
vertised in the list by the Ooinptrol-!
ler has not been paid in four or five
years. The tax must be paid. It,)
may be hard to allow speculators to I
buy them up at sheriff sales, but the !
Legislature saw lit, to pass a law com- 1
polling the payment of the taxes,
and tin) Comptroller has no discre
tion in the matter. Hut in his notice !
to the owners of these wild lands he !
has advertised he has taken the pre
caution to add tho following proviso,
to-wit :
All mistakes, errors, etc., in the .
following list will be promptly cor
rected by giving written notice to
this office. Where the tax lias
already been paid the matter will be ;
corrected upon production of proper!
proof. All owners of any lot or lota !
tierewit.li published, will come for
ward or address this office and pay
the tax thereon within thirty days as
required by law, or ii default thereof j
the same will be sold for tax in the I
county where located by the sheriff,
as other sheriff tax sales.

Among the railroad kings and oth
ers who took passage on the Havana,
was Hon. E. 1,. Plumb, Hon. Wrn.
Walter Phelps, Ben. I’erley Poore
and Miss Poore, of Washington ; Hon.
Thos. A. Scott and wife, Air. Maekie,
Gov. Brown, wife and son. of Geor
gia; (’apt. Grant, Mr. Nutting and
son and Miss Peters, of Georgia.
These parties will return in about
two weeks, desiring only to spend a
few days at the Mexican capital.
That the entire programme was
changed on account of serious com
plications with the Mexican govern
ment, and that the precipitation of a
conflict is imminent, unless an im
mediate explanation of the recent
raid can be declared, is as nearly offi
cial as any intelligence which does
not emanate directly from the War
Department.
Dr. Kenealy, although disbenehed
and disbarred for his part in theTich
borne ease, appears to be getting
upon a good financial footing. His
paper, "The EiiyUeltnuin,” lias reach
ed a circulation of ninety-five thou
sand, the circulation before his elec
tion to Parliament having been only
twenty thousand. He is also selling
thousands of copies of a report of the
famous trial, in fourpenny parts, and
is estimated recently to have cleared
in one week $2,100 from his two ven
tures.
—Hinesville Gazette: Fur the past,
week our farmers have been quite
busy planting corn. The majority
finished planting in the corn crop,
and some few have begun to plant
cotton.
