Quartz Crushing.—There was a formal trial to-day of the machinery erected on the Reclaimed Ground for the Provincial Government, in the presence of Mr Bradshaw, Secretary fur Works. The trial was considered very satisfactory ; and on the Provincial Engineer certifying to that effect, as he will probably do on Monday, the Government will take over the machine. There was a good pressure of water on while the stampers were going, and it is estimated that twenty tons can bo put through daily. It is, however, intended not to crush more than ten tons of stuff at a time for a company. How Shares are Affected. —lt is not often that one reads of such a strange depreciation in the value of shares as befel the scrip of the Green Harp Co. at Coromandel a few days ago. It appears that Mr Rowe, late manager of the Caledonian, had been visiting the Coromandel claims on business, and suspicion was aroused by a refusal to admit him to inspect the Green Harp: hence the decline in its scrip. The motion tabled in the Legislative Assembly of South Australia by Mr Angus relative to communicating with Queensland to arrange for a steamer to connect with the cable at Port Darwin has been negatived, the treasurer stating that he expected to lay a telegram from Europe on the table of the House on that day fortnight, June 15.
