£lO per fathom. In the 45 East, and east of the
cross course the lode is full 4ft. wide, composed of
gossan caple quartz, with black and yellow
copper
ore throughout, yielding three tons of
ore per fathom of good quality. In the latter
Part of this or the beginning of the coming
week we shall communicate the rise from the 45
With the winze in the 30 fathom level, when we
shall commence sloping both east and west in a good
Course of ore. Now our surface works and machi-
nery are nearly completed, we estimate our cost
will not exceed £250 per month. We sampled on
Friday last two parcels of ore, computed at 76 tons.
ICe have now 10 tons of ore at surface, and from
Resent appearances throughout the mine we hope
our next sampling will be much larger.
In Mr. Baker Lclean's Stock, Share, and Finance
-11!egister we find the following The Stock,and
Share Markets occasionally exhibited an improved
tone,
and prices began to move up to what may be
12egavded as a fair or sound one for all parties ; and
twen—sometimes with, and sometimes without cause
iquotations receded as far as they had advanced.
t was sometimes curious to witness the state of
business at the Stock Exchange. The lower the
value of money, the more depreciated became the
different classes of securities. The absence of busi-
ness enabled the operators for the fall, when they
offered any kind of negotiable property, to force
Prices down throughout the different depart-
ments ; and the result is, upon the whole,
,verY unsatisfactory position of affairs, for the
._"3lders of shares or other securities, whom circum-
:',,cances may force to sell. The investing public
nave not yet recovered from the shock of last May,
and the subsequent revelations that have been made,
touching the proceedings and present critical posi-
tion of some of our largest joint-stock companies,
have created new fears, while they have revived
the.E. old ones. That there is plenty of money ready
for investment is clear ; but, for the present, it is
attracted towards Foreign and Colonial loans, and
seems to shrink from entrusting itself to joint-stock
companies. There is a large amount, however, that,
110°ner or later, must come forward for investment,
and then the better descriptions of securities will
experience a recovery; and those that have been
carried to the lowest point will, if sound, be among
the first to participate in the rebound."
