OUR MINES.
LONDON. The manager has had the dirt which was on hand when work was stopped put through at Bull's mill, the yield being 16033. lOdwts. gold. Operations in this mine, and also in the Mariner Co., are still at a standstill. - EOCE.Y POINT.
The Adelaide reef in the southern drive at the General Chute level has now come together, forming one solid body of quartz. This is small in the face at present, but is larger in the floor; gold is seen pretty freely each breaking. Crushing will take place in about a week. The water flowing from the dig is now decreasing- It was at first thought to indicate the proximity of another lode,' but it now seems probable it is only the draiaage of the country.
