Smith. Secretary : Richard Greeth. The:property now- offered to;theipriblic, in possession of dhe 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 for profitable investment. Tile proprietors are'willing to - accept for their valuable rights and races the sum of £4,800,wiz.,-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,stools, &c. The object in -claiming any portion in casb is to enable them to meet their calls in the Shag River Company in which most of the proprietors are largely in.terested. 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 will tike-place in two months, when it is expected • a good > dividend will be declared. Applications for Shares'to ! beaddressed to the Secretary, -Richard Greeth, Temple Chambers, Princes-street. ■Dunedin, 22nd December, 1865.
