MACEDONIA.
i A very lapr^e body of stone has been recently intersected in the tunnel, snd a 1 though of a somewhat broken formation, contains sufficient g >U to justify its beiog set clown as Irghly payable. Although some doubt has been expressed es to this ventu-e being a success, the formatian of the workings atd this recent diss covery augurs a good fa ure, and in- consideration of tho company having tbeir own crush ij^ power, with a magnificent lino of tramway for the transit of stone 'to the battery, there is every reason to believe that a good return will yet be realised for their extensive outlay. Tb" working at the present time does not admit of the exact nature of the lode being thoroughly shown, bat oa a future visit a better opportunity will be afforded for learning it 3 extent, but the quality of the stone is already shown to very passable indeed.
