GOLD CIRCULAR. Since the publication of Messrs. Connell and Ridings Gold Circular (New Zealander, Dec. 15th), there hare been several parcels received both from the Waiou and Wynyard Diggings, Coromandel. Mr. Coolahan arrived in town on Saturday with some Tery fine specimens produced at \Kapunga, by bis party (of 8) in about one week's wotlc. They consist of SJ oz. gold dust. 56 oz.^of auriferous quartz, nnd 17 lb». of auriferous sand. These have not yet been sold, and there is, of course, no data upon which the value of specimens can be given. Messrs. Crawford brought up from the Waiou somp very beautifnl specimens of auriferous quartz, one of which, weighing in the gross neaily 2\ oz., has been estimated to contain nearly one half gold. Tins specimen was purchased by His Excellency the LieutenantGovernor for £7. These parties also brought up from the iame s spot vanous other specimens, one paicel of which, consisting of large rich dust and flakes, and exceedingly auriferous quartz, (perhaps at rich, gaudy, specimens as have yet been seen) wae sold by auction by the undersigned yesterday. They were sold in small lots to facilitate those of only small means obtaining a specimen of the first gold production of the colony— they realized at the average rate of £4 per oz. Notwithstanding the above good price, the biddings, even for these small samples, were dull ; indeed, it would appear that, owing te the very favourable fact of so large and satisfactory samples being in town, the present productions will soon be divested of their value in the market, limply as illustratwt specimens, and that the public are now beginning to expect and look for an early opening out of genuine commercial transactions with our new born commodity. There can be no doubt that for good clean gold, read) market at fair prices will be found. Albert Wm. Hansard, Gold Broker Auckland, Dec. 21, 1802.
