who, although fairly, remunerated for their labor, were diverted from the true run of tho gold by working on a false bottom. M'Grath and party, who purchased or obtained the claim from tho provious holders, after a little trial landed on the gold-bearing drift and reef, and tho result of their efforts is as we have narrated.
