PERSEVERANCE.
I am reliably informed fr':at n well formed body of stono has been intersected fully three feet thick showing good gold. Tho reef has been met with in a new tu;inel 80 feet lower down than any previous workings, aud at a poinl|4o feet south of the perpendicular lino O? the trial shaft sunk ou the stone from ihft upper level several months ago. Scrip is held firm at the present tinio, and I believe tho esii« mated cost to construct a tramway fo connect this mino with the Mocedovia Battory would not exceed £400. It .'s nob atall improbable but the same will be carried out shortly.
