The Ground of the Company consists of about live acres, adjacent to the Fourteen Mile Beach, through which the reef runs for a distance of 1200 feet. The reef,' so far as has been prospected, is well defined, and varies in thickness fromS to 22 inches, and several experienced miners have expressed it as their opinion, that, from the nature of the ground through which the roof runs there can be no doubt as to its permanency

There has been a trial crushing of a tea of stone from the reef aj tlio Government battery, which yielded better than 0 dwts. of gold, but tlic ebaraoter of tbe stone scut could not be considered an average sample, it being largely intermixed with mullock. Besides this trial there has been a few small tests, none of which yielded less than at the rate of 3 ounces to the ton, and one test at the Bank of New Zealand Roxburgh yielded at the rate of nearly soz to the ton. From the situation of the reef every facility is afforded for working it, as the quartz to a depth of 400 feet, can be extracted by means of tunnelling, which may lie commenced on the reef in the Company’s ground, at a 400 feet level. There is also a water race on the Company’s ground, containing au ample supply of water for the working of a battery of any number of stamps up to fifty head, and this may bo either purchased m whole or part on the moat reasonable terms from the proprietors. Tt is proposed, as soon as 1200 shares arc disposed of, to convene a General Meeting of the shareholders, to make the necessary arrangements for the working of the Company. All applications to be inade to the Secretary, J. C. SAVAGE, Roxburgh.
