COROMANDEL.
This day,
An accident happened to a son of Mr Thorley, Tiki, while blasting a log. The plug was put in, and the fuse fired, but it did not go off, and the boy went to see the reason, when the blast went off, and sent the plug through his abdomen. Dr Hovell was soon in attendance, and he expects the wound will be fatal.
The Counties Act claim got over twenty pounds of specimens.
The mines generally are improving
