M.Mig-THIS DAY.

Two o'CLoci.
This being settling day, little business has been
done in the mining market, which presents no alte-
ration of importance. The only transactions officially
reported in the Stock Exchange are in Wheal Mary
Ann shares, at 44.
Foreign and colonial mining securities are
nominally quoted the same as yesterday, and have
also met with very little business.

The direchere of the English and Auroralien Copper Com-
pany have received advisee from their manager, dated Ade-
laide, 10th August last, in which he state. :—" The-e are
six furnaces now lighted, and in good order. The wages of
shame all the mechanic.' had been reduced le. per diem, and
of all the labourers be. per week, several of the men bed bean
dispensed with, and others put upon price work. Wood wee
being delivered at the works ea required, and there was an
abundance in the Scrub. The ore shipments next meson
would be about 5,000 tone."
The directors of the Bond Accord Mining Company have
received a communication, of date the 1 lira of August lest,
from the committee of management at Adele de, reporting
operations at the mine to the 7th of August: " MC1(.11.6

Twelve fathoms est to be driven south at 31. 6e. per fathom.
Elder's Shaft.—The 21 fathom level driven north fri,in :his
shaft has now been extended 24 fathoms, and Captain
Jeffrey expected to complete the communication hetwetx
Dickson's and Elder's shafts in the course of Augu4t. In
Elder's theft the live; south has been dnven towards
the mouth boundary of the property 11 fathoms theugh

the end thereof a crosscut has been driven east 7 fathoms,
and at shout 6 fathoms en this direction a bnuich
3 het wide has been out, which is composed of spar, gleam
and spots of ore. In reference to this shaft and the levels
running from it, Captain Jeffrey still expects, as ho proceeds
deeper, to have • good course of ore.' The engine abaft :
Thu shaft. when last reported on, was down 7 fathoms ; it
is now sunk 11 fathoms. The steam-engine and engineer
had snivel oat palely, and every effort was making to convey
it to the odes and erect it at the shaft prepared for it. TM
