Junction could lengthen the list 10 ten times
that number, SO rich are our fol ests and SO

we feel sure he will soon recognise the ur-

it, to deliver it by carts to The customers at

pots throughout the city, and to sell IL at the
reasonable rate OF one cent per pound. AS

The report Of The Directors of The Barima

hopeful enough, the ConsummatI"n to be Wish

thanks to the exertioA. OF Sp oston q Co.,
who have q big job in getting II from the

June the stamps ought TO be n operation.
The estimated value of the quartz by all the
experts who have seen it, is high, and there
is said to be a considerable quantity OF 1t, so
the two main factors of success ale assured.
The Directors, as we Stated on q tolmer oc-
casion, have arranged to send 50 tons OF ore
to England to be treated there, under several
