In describing hia trip from Salt Lake City, he said that he first came to the Bingham Canyon deposits, which have excited more than usual attention and interest during the past Summer. They aré great ferrnginons outcrops, carrying ceposits of argentiférous lead and bodies of carbonate lead, also great masses of iron pyrites. The miners paid bat little attention to. these deposits until last season, when they found that the larger portions of the outcrop paid for working in the ordinary way. The absence of a bountiful supply of water has, however, beeri-disadvantageous, and it is proposed to have these ores transported to the Jordan River to have them refined. THE.
