crease that has taken place, according to despatches
Just received, in the yield of gold per ton, and the
consequent large remittance likely to arrive by the
next mail from Clunes. The mine also shows an
increase of " yield in depth."

Yneut eau be reported in the demand for fancy

4alnpton little change has taken place, business in
most departments having been exceedingly de-
Pressed.
