THE MATRIX OF GOLD.
The remarks quoted in our Saturday's issue from * article published in the North Borner Herald respecting the matrix of the gold in that historic region, may serve as a text fram which to illustrate the present condition of our know ledge on this important questlae.
In the first place we met print out that two distract problems are involved, and that these Dock.e generally confused in popular and what is known as practical wilting The first error that's generally made is to confuse the charsc- ter or kind of r ck which contains gold with the geological age of the rock. The one gives us Information * to the skeleton, the other ast the life history, and the two things should be kept separate. Nothing is more common thin to see very distant localities compared because the same kind of rocks arear in bath. Thus, siste rocks are said to yield gold in Bri- tain, Russia, California, South Africa, Australia and Borneo, and the flogical conclusion is alike,
