A beautiful specimen of virgin gold was lately
found in a tin streatn-work in Cornwall. It is about
the length and thickness of a lady's little finger,
though less regularly formed, and weighs above
two ounces. Its intrinsic value is tral to nine
guineas ; but, as a specimen, it is invaluable ; for
though gold has been frequently found in the stream-
works, and that in larger quantities than is gene-
rally known, that is unquestionably the largest and
most beautiful specimen ever found in Cornwall.
