CITY OF LONDON.
Yesterday the baling buckets were fired on the winding ropes and most of the surface water, which has accumulated during the stoppage, was baled out.n Today a start was made at repairing the shaft above the No. 3 level, as some of the timbers will need to be replaced. The winze which the manager was sinking in the cross-lode is full of water, and opera* tions will not be able to be commenced there till perhaps the middle of next week. It will be seen that tenders to sink' the shaft for a new level have been invited; The good prospects met with in the winze on the cross-lode might lead to the surmise that operations in the next level will be more successful than they have been in the present low level. The .engine is working splendidly. .
