DESIDE.
A crashing from this claim, situated at Tairua, yielded 16ozs 19dwts gold. The shareholders crushed about 30 tons. They have about 15 men employed, and on Monday next intend to commence keeping 20 head of stampers at the old Alma battery (which is their property) going for a month. They are working a well defined reef, about 5 feet 6 inches thick, and are encouraged by the prospects obtained up to the present.
