Imoved.

The following is the Report on the property made by Mr. J. D. HUMPHREYS :~~

I arrived in Sydney on Saturday, the 13th [aly last, where I met by appointment Mr. CHARLES WILLMOTT, a mining expert from Victoria. Mr. WILLMOTT has been personally known to me since 1854; I have absolute confidence in his lategrity, skill, and judgment. We left Sydney together on Tuesday, the 16th July, and arrived at Mount McDonald on the day following, and commenced oar inspection the same afternoon. The Freehold conskis of too acres of auriferous land in the form of a direct square, each side of which measures 3,087 (t. 6 in., or 695 yards, a feet,

6 inches,

The position is to the West of the Eureka Goid Mine, and extends at right angles from Its own Eastern Boundary in Westerly direction, across a create or water course to the opposite range of hills, on the Northern slope of which the greater part of its wres lies. The water course which runs through the Frecho'd divides two ranges of auriferous hills, and finally empties itself into the River Lachlan, about three miles to the South of the dam of the reservoir which supplies the battery belonging to the property, altuated at Mount McDonald in the district of CarcoR? In the province of Bathorst, New South Wales.

The Battery itself is to the West of the reservolt, and consequently on the Western side of the creek near the Southern boundary of the property, and Its site was selected with excellent judgment as quartz can be carted to it or trollled to it not only from all parts of the Freehold itself but from all the workings in the neighbourhood at little cost. The Machloe house, moreover, being close to its water supply, involves no waste of power in feeding the bollers. The Water Supply consists of a reservoir formed by a dam across the creek, and la fed by a watershed of considerable extent embraced by the surrounding hills, and I was informed by men who had been working on the ground for years that the supply never failed in the driest season, from which I inferred that the rainfall is supplemented by subsoil drainage and springs. For fuel there is abundance of good timber in the vicinity. The Machinery we found to be of the best description and comprises a first-class englae-and two good bollers, There are 4 batteries of 3 head of stamps capable of crushing about 20 tons a day in all, as well as 3 paus, shaking tables, and all necessary machinery for extracting from the ore the greatest amount of gold it will pay to take out. The inspection of the rest of the Freehold was greatly facfiliated by the whole of the scrub having been cut down before we arrived, so the estate

was laid bare and could be viewed fram a convenient spot on the all from end to end.

A party of Tributors, at work on the Freshold not far from the battery, was raising or which yielded over a ore. to the ton at each crushing. The men informed me that they discovered the reef on the surface in walking over the hill after rain, by observing gold in quarts at the bottom of a cart rut which had been washed clean by the water flowing through .

The old workings are of the most primitive description, having evidently been made by alluvial miners unaccustomed to quartz. The reels

were worked from the surface down without timberlag, satli it became dangerous to go deeper. None of these worklogs were any depth and the numerous heavy finds of gold were all found near the surface. That much of the quarts must have been very rich is certain, for it is said about 100 ass of gold a month were obtained by the owners of the battery at the time from recrushing and washing the tailings. One working not far from the battery yielded to ozs, of gold to the top, and £700 worth of gold was taken out of a hole a few feet deep just below the dam. jeen by examining the old workings which still exist that they were mined by men unaccustomed to cope with quartz mining difficulties, The work is of the cradest description and it is evident that at soon as water was reached in sufficient quantity to require machinery, or because the earth began to fall in or become dangerous through being antimbered, the mines were abandoned. This part of the district was, moreaver, at the time infested by bands of desperate bushrangers who rendered residence there very undesirable. It was a long time before the Government was able to hunt them down, owing to the nature of the country.

It is

Uddenbtedly large deposits of gold, and probably exceptionally rich depostis, will be found when these reefs, which proved so good on the surface, are worked to a depth by quartz mining experts under benest and experienced management, backed by sufficient capital. The ground to already prospected; it is well known where the gold has been got bear the surface, and it is only necessary to sink properly timbered shafts and get below these

old workings and work up. Some of these shafts will require pumplag gear.

NOTES AND commentS..

One side of a story is true until the other is told. At present in connection with the Flintshire case, at Salgon, there has only been made public the Captain's statement of the affair, and until the evidence on behalf of the French Government is made public we have no means of determining, with safely, the true merits of the dispute, and have no right to say the conviction of the Captain and his sentence are unjust or cau oxcessive. On the face of it, the Captain's account of the transaction from beginning. to end appears reasonable and probable. No sane man in his position would ever dream of taking deserters from the French Army on board in Salgon; the risks would be too great and the penalty too severe. That deserters from the French forces endeavoured to get away by the Flintshire Is reasonably clear, unless the whole thing was a prearranged trap, which we cannot suppose in the absence of any evidence point- Ing in that direction. It does not appear that when the deserters first visited the ship there was anything in their dress or appear ance that could induce any one to believe · that they belonged to the French Army or Navy; and at most the Captain was in fault in not at once declining to discuss the subject with them and in not referring them to the office of the agent of the steamer, where alone, strictly speaking, application for passage tickets should be

on

made. If the master of the Flintshire had knowingly endeavoured to assist the deserters to escape, his sentence is a com- paratively light one. If he had no know- ledge or means of knowledge that they were endeavouring to evade their military responsibilities or even that they belonged to the French military forces, then of table to no punishment. It seems to us course he was perfectly innocent and

that the British Government should at once apply for and obtain coples of the avidence taken investigation and on the trial, and examine the preliminary for Itself whether that evidence was such as to justify a conviction. Until that is Captain Brown, will be despatched as above CLARET.Our Clarets, including the lowest done, or until the French Government priced, are guaranteed to be the genuine there will be a very uncomfortable feeling in themselves publish the evidence officially, product of the juice of the grape and sie not the public mind that Captain BALLANTYNE'S filficially made from raisins and currents, sentence is not justifled by the mere fact as a generally the case with Cheap Wipes.that masters of British steamers at Saigon have to be very circumspect in their dealings with everybody and everything French. We should be glad to see, at the earliest possible date, some official report from Consul TREMLETT on the whole affair...

CHINA NAVIGATION COMPANY, LIMITED. FOR MANILA.

As far as I know, It has never been heard of that quartz reels rich in gold near the surface failed to yield good results at a grester depth. Such reefs have been profitably worked un Bendigo and other places to a depth of clase on 3,000 feet, and are still at work after 40 years. Given suficient expital economically drainistered or expended, se it would be la any other business expected to pay, I am of opinion that better results will be- obtained from the working of Divers Freehold Mines than are obtained by 99 gut of 100 of the Gold Companies floated in Landon and elsewhere. THE SteamshipTM Eureka Mine lies on the Eastern boundary of Olivers Freehold and consists of several Gold Mining Leases lying between the Queen Mine on the North and the Great Eastern Mine on the South. It will be seen by reference to the map that to the South of the Great Eastern Mine three lots lylog on either side of the creek which runs through the Freehold and dischargos itself into the Lachlan River have been secured, thus giving to the Company a magnificent water supply,

The new shaft of the Eureka has been sunk to a depth of 85 feet. The old workings before the miners were flooded out yielded to a depth of 140 feet

not less than I ex, of Gold per ton, with occasional better resolts. This is recorded in the Government Reports.

It is in this me that the Company's operations will commence by deepening the new shift by about 120 feet. This shaft has been properly timbered as far as it goes and is surmounted by pappet heads in the vicinity of which is a machine house with necessary winding and pamping gear for

All were in good order and fit to commence work when inspected, freeing the mine from water.

The further sinking of the shaft is not through difficult ground and the cost of labour and properly timboring will be only about £5 per foot. When deepened, sufficient tunnels will be driven to the North and South and the reef will be worked upwards, which is the most economical plan. The amount of water to be dealt with of course increases the cost of mining and readers it Impossible for ordlaney working minors to develop such

properties on their own sccoun', but it in act disadvantageous for those having means la à country subject to drought.

One of the drawbacks to the development of mining in the district has been that there was no proper sccommodation for miners of the better class with their wives and families, and it is proposed to build a few comfortable cottages to induce this class of men to settle on the property,

The operations of the Company will at first be limited to deepening the Eureka new shaft and driving tonnels through the reef. It is confidently anticipated that this mine being taken over in a working condition wiil pay expenses from an early date and withlo a short time win good results, A map of the mines is attached and also a map of New South Wales showing Railways and the direction of the Kasis running through the property with the position marked of some of the principal mines :-
