Office —Temple Chambers, Princes st. Overseer op Works : G. A. Smith. Secretary : Richard Creeth. The property now offered to the public, in possession of the United Company, at Hamilton, consists of seven and a half acres of auriferous land,-which has been proved to be as rich any hitherto sluiced in the Province. In addition to this area, a lease of - twelve acres of equally good ground has been secured,- both of : which will be handed over to the new Company. The fact that during . the -last twelve months alone, as may be seen from ; the vouchers of the proprietors, gold of the value of £9OOO has been taken from the ground, will be , proof sufficient of the richness of • this extensive claim, and the exceedingly favorable opportunity for profitable investment. The proprietors ■ are willing to accept for their valuable rights and races the sum of £4,800, viz., one half in cash, and the other half in paid-up Shares. They have expended a sum nearly equal to this amount in the construction of a ; head race of seven miles, a large dam, six large tail races, 30 sluice' boxes,' tools, &c. The object in claiming any portion in cash is -to enable them to meet their calls in the Shag River Company in which most of the proprietors . are lai’gely interested. In addition to the rich area of auriferous land that falls to . the new Company, there is also the first right to. a valuable stream, which is made available by the head race already mentioned. All the works are of the most substantial character. ' The tail races are 70 feet in depth, and have been cut through 20 feet of solid rock. A washing > up 1 will; take place in two months, when it is expected a good dividend will be declared. Applications for Shares to be addressed to the Secretary,' Richard Creeth, Temple Chambers, 5 Princes-street. Dunedin, 22nd December, 1865.
