Hickey and party, who are working this claim, have daring the last few days got out about 26 loads of stuff from the main reef, which is being carted to the battery ready for crushing. If the weather continues fine/they hope to eet out at least 30 loads duriog next week The reef continues the same, a few color* of gold being visible when breaking down The whole of the reef is heing broken out of the face,
QUEEN OF BEAUTY. The pump is now working at 9§ strokes per minute, and reducing the water 2|feet per day. '- The speed could be in-ereased-if advisable, but the enlargement of the shaft cannot be done as quickly as the water could be reduced. Since our last report the water has been reduced 25 feeti and is now down 415 feet, or nearly to the No. 6 level.
