QUEEN OF THE MAY.
The manager has not yet been obliged to discontinue operations, but it is probable that he will have to do so to-morrow, it being expected that, the water will have then inundated the lower workings. The water in the pumping shaft is now above the .level of this mine's lowest level,,and the reason that it is not yet in is that the water takes some time to soak through the hard country in the vicinity. The crushing is still proceeding and is looking well. Gold is occasionally seen in the reef.
