WHAU TRIAL CRUSHING.
(By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.) THAMES, this day. ! Seven loads from, the Sons of Freedom reef in the rise yielded a payable return of 15 ounces of melted gold, valued at £40. This cannot be regarded otherwise than highly satisfactory, as the ore came from the block of ground that until recently was not prospected, while the lode from which the quartz was broken is 3 feet 6 inches wide, and a. large quantity of quartz can be broken daily with only a small cost, so the dirt is highly payable.
