[FEOJI AX OCCASIONAL COEKESrOIfDENT.] LONG DRIVE. This mine has had a cleaning up of their specimens this afternoon, and lodged in the Bank of New Zealand 844 ounces of retorted gold.
INVERNESS GOLD MINING COMPANY.
This claim has given a splendid return of five ounces to the ton. The Company has about 150 tons more to put through the machine ; they intend to keep going twelve head of Mr. Goodall's battery, shareholders may look forward to splendid returns from this mine.
[PEOM A COBBESFONDENT.] THE INVERNESS CLAIM
This claim is again in a fait way to pay handsome dividends. I believe there was lodged in the Bank of New Zealand on Saturday last 256 ozs. 2 dwts. of retorted gold, the result?of a crushing of from 50 to 55 tons. This quantity was taken ffom the plates. There are 200 tons ready for crushing, and we helieve there will be no cleaning up for some days yet. The claim is still crushing at Goodall's battery, where ten stampers will be permanently engaged.
