CITY OF LONDON.
The cross-cut from No. 3 level, after being driven 25 feet has cut No. 1 reef. The lode is smaller than at the bottom' level, but is it possible that more of the reef will be exposed: on driving - further, which is intended to be done. The course of the reef fore t and aft will be immediately followed, and has been opened with a fair promise of success, several stones containing gold being visible on breaking out; The cross-lode is still being taken out by coming up, the shaft a few feet, and knocking a hole through into the quartz, the portion already taken.oat being secured by filling up with mullock. There is no difference apparently in the inflow of water, but owing to the means adopted it does not: affect the out-put fromthii portion of the mine.
