TE ABOHA.
[By Telegraph.] (fbom oub own cobbspondent.) Te Aboha, This day. A Swindle. There was considerable excitement here on Saturday on account of tbe splendid prospects from stone brought into town from the new rush at the Tui. About 50 miners from Waiorongomai went out yesterday, and after examining the reef carefully, brought in a parcel of stone which they tested with the result that tbey could not .raise a prospect. The prospeo - tor vanished early this morning, much to the disgust of a number here who wanted t> find out how, he had managed to keep up the deception for a fortnight. It is a great pity such a swindle should have been perpetrated, as the district; is well worth prospecting. Nothing new from the mines.
