SOMETHING LIKE A CLAIM.
A few weeks ago the Cornish and Scotch Company at Clark’s Diggings were in a fair way to dissolve, owing to a disagreement among the shareholders. At the instigation of one side an injunction was put upon the claim, which, however, on reconsideration was removed. Immediately after, an arrangement was come to for one partner to retire, the others buying him out for over 1-1,400, the money to be paid on Monday last. Un Saturday week the party went to work, and came down on Saturday last, having washed up about one third of the’r tail-race, and bringing down between thirty five and thirty six pounds weight of gold, ihe money was duly forthcoming on the Monday', and the prospects of the claim for the season look excellent. It is refreshing, these dull times, to write of gold being brought iu by the pound weight.—‘Mount Ida Chronicle.’
