Th) New York Star Says the GoM Hill is One of the Biggest Copper Propositions in the Conntiy. It is stated that a smelter will shortly be put in at Gold Hill Copper Mine and that work at this mine will be resumed on a large scale. The New York Star savs: The Gold Hill Copper Company of North Carolina promises to be one of the best mining propositions of the country under the adminis- tration of its present president, Mr. Walter George Newman. Mr. Newman was formerly president of the Union Copper Company. the Union Copper Company. During the panic, wnen money when money ..,o UA ot ho I7n?r,n Cnrx. Mr. Newman's management that tbe stock was held at $30 per share Mr. Newman resigned from the Union Copper Company to take the presidency of the Gold Hill Conner- Company. He is so coDtilent that this company will eciipsa its record of over 16,000, 000, which was furnished to the Uniied States Mint years ago, thtt Mr. Newman uow claims that 1,000 tons of ore per day will be jakfcn' out of- the mine without sinkiusr another inch. Mr. New man and his associates asserfthat tbe Gold Hiil Mining Company is the largest and bet mine Eist cf the Kiicky Mountains. The mineral properties of the Goid Hill Copper Company em- bn.co 1,250 acres of land, chiefly tiiubered, lying m Rortan and sianiy tcunue?, iorin .aroiina, i . . - -x" . i i 1 1 i- me greater -portion oi wmcn. is in ltowan. ui me suriace useii nine neeud io oe &aiu. ti lies m ioe iavored agricultural section oi Korth Carolina and is posseted of ery natural advantage known to aajj' ofher sect'on of the State. , TheC offices and main shaft are located in the heart of the thriving town cf Gold Hill, on tbe Nor wood Railroad, and only fifteen . miles from a terminal point of the Southern and Western North Caiolina Railroads. The mines owned by the Gold Hill Cupper Company are the deepest as well as the richest in the Appalachian mineral belt, and are composed of tbe following fchafts: Randolph, 850 feet; Cen ter, 600 feet; Barnhard, 600 feet; Miiler, Field South Line, North Line, Martin and several others. Four of the shafts are now being opened up "and a fifth is being sunk on virgin ground. These mines compose what was known as the Gold Hild Mines, and of which many flittering re ports have been made by the mining specialists of eminence. Among others a most exhaustive and painstaking report was made by Mr. Ernett Hauesser, who was employed by a party of Eng lish capitalists interested m the development of this property to make a thorough investigation. Mr. Hauesser reported in part as follows: "It-affords me great pleasure to state that the results of my investigation are trgnly satis factory, surpassing the most san guine expectations. The mineral valua tf the o lract3 has been .proved to be great, reliable and lasting, affording ample security to the most cautious capitalists for safety cf his investments and for highly remunerative returns." And again, in tpeaking of the o'reis: tkThe great and striking Ieatures(f t:o veins under con sidefation consists in their relia bility in d ptb, their great linear extent, the variety and richness of ores and tnela!3 they contain and the short distances they are situat ed from each other." I bis expert opinion was abundant ly jnstilied by later developments. Oao shaft alone of those to which be referred has tcday a mint record of over $6,000,000. We publish herewith extracts from Professor Emmons and Gen. Clingman's report?, which are very interesting: Professor Emmons, in his well known geological report on North Carolina, submitted to His Excel lency the Governor tf the State, and published in 1856 by Putnam & Co., of New York, after refer ring to the use of the old fashioned Coilian Mill and other similar then obsolete machinery, says: Two million dollars was ex- traded up to 1 :e year 1846. "On inspect ng these operations when going on it is impossible to resist the conclusion that much of the gold is wa ted along with the mercury. I believe this is admit ted by the proprietors." After this" dkte the events con nected with th civil war between the Southern and Northern States 1 ad to the stoppage of the works on ,Gold Hill, bs on the whole of the mines in North Carolina.
