Mr. Andre «r Meldram. aeon of Mr. Henry Meldrum. the well-known FleBhertoD Station Agent of the T. G. B. B., and a blacksmith by trade baa "strnck lie" in a Colornao siWer minp. Mr. Meldram and three other gentlemen, commenced prospecting among the moantaius of Colorado in the sum mer^f 1881. They met with very litU* if any bucccbb, until about the l^tii of August in the same year, when he Rnd Robinson, one of his partners â€" whilj "prospecting" in the Ued Mountains, found indications that led them to stake out a claim now known as the Gustin mine. They staked out another mine a short dis- tauce from the "Guston." and citlled it the "Yankee Girl." The latter 'â-  miuH proved so rich that on the 17th of September they took one thousand doUarB worth of ore rut of it. A com- pany of AmeMcaiisofferedthem $125,- 000 in cawh for the Yankee Girl, and iliey accepted. Mr. Meldrum and liis partners still hold the Guston luine, however, which is said to be enormously rich in precious metals. Ill iact it uiay be stated that Mr. Mel- driiiii is worth a round miUion dol- lais â€" Adravce. [TlKjabove gentleman while yisit- ing hiF sister, Mrs. Alex. Kay, of this village, gave us a call on Tuesday last. His spe (iy occasion to viealtii has not clianged his laauner in the least,b( mi? stili reserved and unassuming iu his deportrae it. He showed us a map, (ir draught of his "Guston Mine," showing the tunnel through which the ore is brought, the camp built of logs with a chimney of silver ore, a black- smith forge built between two trees, the torge also built of silver is worth $1,000, itself. Mr. MeMrum being a blacksmith, keeps the mining tools dressed and sharpened. He has with l.uu BiiecimeuiJ "f Silver and Gold ore, which appear very rieli n; t'.iOES precious nietals. He leaves this week for Chicago where he will remain un- til spring when lie will return to Colo- I'iido.] GLENELG COUNCIL. Council met dt the Town Hall, on the 12tli inst. Members all present.
