Jamestown, Tuolumne County, PO 4 miles southwest of Sonora, situated on the stage road from Stockton, and in the midst of a section once distinguished for the richness of its placers. It is now much decayed and although possessing mineral and agricultural resources of a high order, a change in the systems of the past in both tenure of property and mode of operations is required to develop them and establish a permanent prosperity.

The Mammoth Quartz Lode runs near the town, regarded as the great mother vein of the State, and supposed to be very rich. Table Mountain, a singular formation of lava, overlying deep beds of auriferous gravel, is near Jamestown, and into it are now running several prospecting tunnels whose success will add greatly to the prosperity of the place, and revivify business.

Julian, San Diego County, PO 45 miles north east of San Diego, is one of the new mining towns of the southern extreme of the State, and bids fair, upon the settlement of land titles, to become a place of considerable importance. The Washington, Stonewall and other mines have shown much wealth, and the region is undoubtedly rich in gold. The town contains three stores, four hotels, two boarding houses, a well-kept school, post and express offices, and other business houses. The scenery and climate of this section are unsurpassed. The mountains in the vicinity are thickly timbered, and the streets of the village are shaded by fine live oak trees. The surrounding country is fertile and well adapted to agriculture and grazing, and as a mining or farming section the future promise is very favorable.
