OUR DEEP LEVELS.
(To the Editor of the Evenings Stab.)
Sib. —I was very pleased to see your remarks on Saturday advocating the formation in England of a large and powerful company to purchase and thoroughly prospect the deep levels of what once were our great gold producing, mines. I feel confident that if some of our leading msn, vow in England—Vogel.,and Tom Russell to wit—were to give the project the weight of their names, there would not be the slightest difficulty in floating a company with a capital of, say a quarter of a million, which would buy out the present proprietors, and leave sufficient money to put down the Big Pump shaft another 1000 feet if necessary, and give the country the prospecting which, it requires, and which the present prospectors, from their want of capital and enterprise, seem unable tq cio, I sinoprely trust that the matter will not be allowed to rest, but that steps will at once be taken in the direction indicated.—lam, An Old Kesident and Shaheholdek,
