CHAMPAIGN LOCALS

We learn from the Champaign Gazette that there has been discovered a large quantity of pure copper in a gulch near Urbana, with indications of more. Specimens have been assayed, and show signs of gold. We do not advise our readers to start for Urbana until our next issue, and if the Gazette gives a good report we’ll make it known.
