The present Shareholders, 11 in number, -hold 20 acres, and have for some months past been sinking, and have struck auriferous wash at a depth of 40ft, at 160 ft from the shaft, but find it necessary to erect certaiu drainage machinery, and have the ground worked in a systematic and extensive way. There is plenty of available water in the creek which can be secured, and it is not' expected that more than a quarter of the capital will be called up. The present shareholders will make over to the Company all their rights and interests receiving therefor GOO paid-up shares, and are willing to bind themselves not to pait with the same until a dividend may become payable. • ..... : ,_..:.
