[From ft Lcttor of the correspondent of tboN, y. World.] 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 Tlie Villa I .antis Ire They to he Mold? 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. W. L. Goldsmith, Comptrolle General. 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. W. J. WATT. J. A. WALKER. CIIAS. H. WATT.
