THE UNA.
There is not much to record from the Una. Mr. Day states that the country through which the drive is being cut has much improved, and that more speedy progress can now be made, yet there is still nearly two hundred feet to go before the reef can be expected to be cut. At the battery things are quiet. A large parcel of stone has been sent down from the Loyalty, about sixty; tons, but wijl remain, I am informed, till rainfall before it is crushed. A small lot from the Woonta claim has also been sent down to the Una mill for treatment, but as this will only require a five stamper power, perhaps the waterwheel will be putjin motion for its reduction. Things generally look very slack in the Karaka district; perhaps when the Queen of the Thames and Loyalty mines are more fully developed, they will brighten up a bit. It is a pity to see so large a portion of our district a kind of cold shouldered.
