SHAMROCK (TRIBUTE),
The Shamrock tributers have just completed a crushing, of about 18 tons of stuff at the Shamrock battery, for a really good return. They have to-day banked, 60oz, melted gold, or at the rate, of nearly 3^ ounces to the ton/ The -stone is represented as being heavy arid dense in its gravity, and so full of minerals antagonistic to quicksilver that little or no gold was saved on the battery plates, nearly the whole of the amalgam being taken out of the berdans, after the treatment of the blanket washings.
