The only trouble we have with our people is in get tine them to let the world know what really exists in this country A We intend, however, to lorce all the information we can from them, and Eublish all that we can get hold -of, nowing that we can not make much of a mistake as to the real value. - - But to the assay of the ore sent from the Boilaion gold mine : Sulphurets, value in coin per ton, gold $801.99; silver, $17.40; total. $819.39.
