OLD SIAM.
The shareholders * of this claim are putting through a rough test of 1| tons of quartz at the Herald mill and it is going rather better than half an ounce to the ton, which, from a reef 4 feet thick with cheap conveyance, should pay first rate. The road has been put in a sufficient state of repair to use a sleigh, and the expends ture. of some £60- by the County and Borough on the portions of the road within the respective boundaries of each would convert the present track into a good dray road. I understand that the County have agreed to do their share on their being satisfied that the claim is a payable one.- - At the mine the drive on the lode is progressing with satisfactory results, and the shareholders are sanguine of their olaim proving a success.
