Engineer : Charles Nees, C.E. The object [in forming the above Company is | to supply a want very generally felt on the Terrace claims, and the new rushes contiguous to Charleston, whereby many hundred claims could be profitably woiked .that are now aban- j dnngd for want The Ootnpnnj- hrtic registered the Race to supply twenty government sluice heads, which would furnish an abundant quantity, in addition to being able to drive powerful machinery for crusliing cement which abounds in vast quantities on the line of route, also could be made available for Saw Mills or other purposes. The probable length of the race is four miles, and as one third will require fluming, the promoters are positive that the capital sought will be ample for all purposes. The line of Race is surveyed two thirds of the entire length by the promoters, who have also cleared the track, in consideration of which they require sixty (60) fully paid shares in the ComIt is well known that upwards of four hundred claims could be supplied from the above race which, at the rate of £2 per week, half the price paid for water now, would yield the handsome return of £BOO weekly, or £40,000 per annum ; one of the most lucrative undertakings that has been submitted to the public. As new rushes take place almost daily, the Company's Race would assume more gigantic proportions as the works extended; ground hitherto unprospected would be opened up, the miners, very naturally, would go contiguous to water, and the well-known character of the auri- , i ferous deposits of this district would warrant the assumption that a very large and payable gold- i field would exist here for several years. When half of the shares are allotted the Pro- ' visional Directors intend to call a meeting of shareholders, to elect Directors, and to settle the \ rules and regulations under which the Company j shall be governed. Application-* for shares to be made to the Director?, or Messrs M'Mastcrs and Carroll. ; r
