SCOTTISH GOLD “STRIKE!"
| PROMISING OUTCOME OF THE FIEST WASH-UP.
KILDONAM GOLD FIELDS. N.B,
July 16th. -
A tiny leaf of gold glittered in the sunshine' of Kildonan Camp yesterday when the, slalo bors in the Duke of Butherland's experimental. mining camp were opened for the first time
Gold, pur and unmistakable, and of ne guality
was there, bat Mr. William Heath, the Kloudiks expe t, who is in charge of the
срета Hior, was not able to give me his offcial report on the result until it has been submitted to the Daka,
o say that I obtained a good samplo of gold," said Mr. Heath to me after the wash- which he himself carried out most carefully. AUT
can say is that if we got the same resalte from a olalar we were prosproting in the Klondike we should regard it at hopofa), and should contiene operations there."
The official report must go first to the Duke of Butherland and big son, the Marquis of Stafford, who have ordered this experimental, test at the desire of their Highland teatry, who have for generations dreamt of a mountain of gold at their doors.
Should Mr. Heath's report prove sufficiently favourable, it is popularly supposed that the Homedale Valley will be opened once again to

It was shortly before noon that the stor which has been continuously running dowu the sinice working out the gold dust from the gravel and "pay dirt" was out off. An erger fille group, among whom were Celonel Wright, D.8.0, and other interested in this Kildonan gold mining experiment-gäth- ond round the sluice-boxes.
Astbe stream suddenly ceased those who knelt by the long wooden trough saw only a thick 697.2 aliment at the bottom of the racks which separate beary stones from the likely pay dirt. There was a little gap of momentary disap- pointment as Mr. Heath raised the wooden mcks one by orn. Where was the gold they had all come to see?

Then Mr. Heath, who bad been busy with his "gold spade"--a long-handled wooden hat- besting water running over the sediment plunged in his hand and brought out a tiny naggot the size of a pea.
That's the largest I've seen here yet, he aid cheerfully, and placed the ind in his mouth, which is the safe deposit of experienced Klondike miners, when they have to carry home small XDg gets.
All the gold dust in the tons of gravel and ́ pay dirt which for a fortnight have been shovelled from the deep trench tho miners have out across the Highland valley was represented in the psilful of black sediment which Mr. Heath inally collected and carefully preserved.
During the early process of the gold "clean. p" tiny flakes of geld could be seen swirling at the bottom of the sluice-boxes, and the rail- heads of the troughs were gold coated.
It was clear even to the inexperienced that Kildonan Burn bad after forty years been forced to give up some of its treasures.
Gold was not the only valuable commodity bound in the sluice boxes, for many garnets were shining in the water when Mr. Heathlessked out the trough with a small brush, so that nothing might be lost.
After the gold, still mixed with black iron dust, was carried in a miner's fat dish to the sent there was another interesting process.
Mr. Health, seated at the door of his tent, dipped a large magnet again and again into the gold pan. The flakes of iron jumped to the magnet, leaving the pure gold behind.
Then with an air of mystery Mr. Heath draw the flap of his tent while he carefully weighed his gold dust. It was found to be pare

I have been talking with John McKay, a septuagenarian Helmedals faberman, who work. ed at the Kildonan diggings in 1869,
If the diggings had been allowed to go on then," he said. atretched the twelve mile would by now have miles up the valley between Halmedale and Kildonan.
"Several men who worked with me there made song little fortunes, and in the first pan of gravel I ever washed cat there I found a tiny nugget whi
which I sold for 501.

The diggers had to go in the and. There. were complaints from the sheep farmers and the shooting tenants that they were interfering with the strath, so the old Duke of Sutherland told them they had to go. It was a great pity," There has been sorrow in the camp today, for in the night a hungry cow knowing sothing of the romance of gold-mining, broke into the lorder and ate a large basketful of vegetables. which were to have served for the miners' Sun- day dinner.

UNCERTIFIED OPIUM
When reviewing the present conditions in the opiam trade at Hongkong the other day, says the Calcutta Englishman of the 20th ult, we pointed out that the large influx of uncer. tified opium into the Chinese ports was alone responsible for the crisis. We also advocated reduction in the exports of uncertified opium from Calcutta. It is satisfactory to learn that the Chinese Government has prohibited the import of uncertified opinm into Chinese ports, but it is not known what steps are being taken to prevent s large opinn auuggling overland. Recently s number of chests have been shipped to Singapore. Bangkok and Saim, and the traders in certifled oplam apprehend meant for
