THE AUSTRALIAN CORDILLERA GOLD
MINING COMPANY.
The following letter affords a cotnple'e and satis-
factory answer to one which appeared in our ial'
pressioa of Tuesday, extracted from a morning eon'
temporary. We fully coincide with the Times is
the opinion that " persons having representations to
make should do so in each case to the directors, or to
their brother shareholders, in public meeting."
would appear to be an imperative duty where the
parties concerned are men of honour and respects'
bility, not likely to be concerned in an unfair and
swindling project. The Committee of Management
of the Australian Cordillera Gold Mining Company
have certainly just cause of complaint as to the wsi
in which they have been treated. It was last week
more than hinted that they had no title to any Po"
tion of the Segenhoe Estate. That insinuation Oh
however, at once rebutted by a direct invitation
to every person, whether really intereStel,
or even if only desirous of satisfying his
curiosity, to inspect the original deed of conveyance'
