QUEEN OF BEAUTY.
The winze which has-l>een sinkingbetween the No. 5 and 6 levels is completed, and stopirig is proceeding from it. The latter part of last week it was used as a pass for sending'dowii mullock to fill in the old stopes. Moping at both ends of the mine is proceeding vigorously, and quartz of a good grade is being broken out, which is proved by the way the stuff is shaping at the battery. The drive on the cross-reef is turning out crushing dirt of good quality. The manager-is rather bothered with water now that the wet .weather has set in, and he intends to call for tenders-to sink a winze from the floor of the bottom level to drain the drives, and when the next level is put in it can be used for facilitating sloping opo^" tions, etc. "'
