THE CURE.
Retorting is not yet completed (at 2 o'clock p.m.), but a tolerably accurate estimate of the return may be made, nevertheless. There are 1014 ounces of amalgam now on the fire. Thus, if a third is allowed for the gold, the return may be taken as approaching 834 ounces, or over 6 ounces to the ton, only 50 tons of stuff having been put through the mill. [Since the above was in type the retorting has been completed, and the return exceeds anticipations, being 3660z5. ldwt., which was deposited in the Union Bank.]
