The GOLD FEVER IN AUsTRALrA.--We copy
the following most important statement from
the Sydney Morning Herald Of Tuesday, May
30 -
The discovery of the fact by Mr. Hargraves,
that the country, from the mountain ranges to
an Indefinite extent in the interior, is one i'm
mense gold field, has produced tremendous ex
element in the town Of Sethurst and the sur
rounding districts. For several days after our
last publication, the business of the town was
atterly paralyxed. A complete mental madness
appears to have seized almost every member of
The community, and, az natural consequence,
there has been n universal rush 10 the dgQings
On Wednesday morning last, Mr. Hargraves,
accompanied by Mr. Stuckbury, the government
geologist, went 10 the diggings, and with his
own ban Is washed pan of earth in his pre- 'ence,
from which twenty one grains Of foe gold were
produced. He afterwards wished several baskets
of earth, and produced gold therefrom Mr.
Stuckbury. herenpon, expressed his satisfaction.
