IN SNE Ot iHE NEW fRANSNAAL MINES. a beautiful stone of 67A carats, valued at sl5.000; one of 54 carats, and two of 20 carats. representing the abnormal ly rich average yield of 16S earats to tue 100 loads.
 Under the lately promulgated Trans vaal diamond ordinance. six-tenths of mines found on private property and nine-tenths of mines found on crown lands are reserved to the government. The remaining four-tenths in the one case goes to the owner of the property discoverer) and the remaining one | twho gives one-fourth of his share 10 he tenth in the other case is set apart for the discoverer.
 By way of conclusion, let it be stated that the Pretoria diamond mines are not the poor mans field. All the de- posits discovered so far are on private ground Should. as is expected, the dia- mondiferous area be found to extend northwards into the Springbok flats. which contain numerous government farms. it is very probable that some of these will be thrown open.
