ASTIPODEAN WEALTH.

n showing Of the enormous gold yield
Of Victoria colony, Australia. Up to
the present time tho seven goid.pro.
ducers OF the Austraiaeiai group have
yielded something over 10000, 900
ounces, Vicioria's part being July
two-thirjs OF the whole. This, for u
long time, went steadily to London tor
coinage, but In the year 1855 the Brit.
