WILLIAM HAVES. rpHIS Company is formed for the purpose of constructing a Water Race to convey water from the Beaumont River to the banks of the Tuapeka River (a distance of about thirty miles). All the way along its course it will command an extensi <• area of well-known auriferous country. The first right to twenty-four heads of water has been secured by the present proprietors. A promising quartz reef has been discovered on the line of the race, which will render the property additionally valuable. Upwards of £800 has already been expended on the works. The Race has been levelled throughout, and the General Government has granted the Proprietors a subsidy of £20CO under the Public Works Act, 1870.

mHE ground of the Company consists of about 5 acres, adjacent to the Fourteen-mile Beach, through which the reef r-r.s f:i JL a distance of 1200 feet. The reef, so far as it has been prospected, is well defined, and varies in thickness from : r ■ .?'. inches. Several experienced miners have expressed it as their opinion that, from the nature of the ground which tl.» re;* traverses, there can be no doubt as to its permanency. There has been a trial crushing of a ton of stone from the reef at the Government Battery, which yielded better i ' -r. 5 dwts. of gold, though the character of the stone sent could not be considered an average sample, it being largely inter ::;. , x with mullock. ] .asides this trial, there has been a few small tests, none of which yielded less than at the rate of 3 023. :.. :.__ ton, and one test, at the Bunk of New Zealand, Roxburgh, yielded at the rate of nearly 5 ozs. to the ton. From the situation of the reef, every facility is atf-.rded for working it, as the quartz, to a depth of 400 feet, :ar. ?3 extracted by means of tunnelling, which may be commenced on the reef in the Company's ground at a 400 feet level. There is also- a water race, containing an ample supply of water for the working of a battery of any number -* stamps up to fifty, on the Company's ground, and this may be either rented in whole or part on the most reasom-.:,.>, terms from the proprietors. It is proposed that, as soon as 1200 shares are disposed of, to convene a general meeting of the shareholders, to make thr. necessary arrangements for the woiking of the Company. All applications for shares to be made to the Secretary, J. C. Savage, Pvoxburgh, The Share List will close on the 31st January.

JOSEPH STIOHOLiSOIirS KEW PATENT DOUBLE SPEED BBAPING & MOWING MACHINE. To instantly obtain a change of speed, I supply my New Patent Reaper with an eccentric bush on tho axle of the main driving wheel ; and my driving wheel is constructed with two sets of toothed shearing of different diameters for driving the pinion through which the knife-bar receives its motion ; the eccentric bush having a lever attached which works in a quadrant wj£h three perforations in it to receive the catch on the spring, and, by simply moving the lever to any of those pprf orations, the machine can be easily thrown into fast speed, slow speed, or out of gtar. It has albo Levers attached to both sides of the machine, so as to regulate the height required to be cnt. . The object of this improvement is to obviate the necessity of substituting one pinion 'for another w order to obtain a change of speed. The great inconvenience and loss of time that arises from this is perfectly well known to all poetical farmers. Having succeeded in this long-desired object, I h*ve secured my patent rights j all over tho world. These Reapers have been largely sold in Otago for ten years, the yearly ingreasing demand for them, and the hundreds of testimonials received from all quarters is the best proof of their superiority. To prevent disappointment, Orders should be sent to me as early as possible. | Catalogues and Prices sent, post free, on application. Sole Agent for Otago— b G. F. REID, * - Stafford-street, Dunedin.
