I trust the Government will sec the absolute uucps-j sity of proclaiming these two places so that; the' votes of the miner resident may bo taken on, the spot. ■ I In reference to the rush towards tho Molyneux, II may mention that Major Croker, accompanied by St.! Jolin Hi-anigan, Esq., J.P., proceeded to the Biipposed} site, lint were unsuccessful in finding it. They foundj detached parties of miners workiu^or nearly ninej miles down the Tuapeka, some Isehi% enaaged in| damning the river, wliile others seemed to be doing! pretty well on the fiats adjoining. To-day a party of five returned, and reported that they had been out for a month working in'the gullicsj running into the Molyncux, and above its junctioniwith the Tuapeka. They.state they have a fair prospect of doing well, and that they have only come in for provisions, intending to return as soon as these can be obtained. Where they have been at work lies about southwest from the junction of Gabriel's and Wctherstones, and is distant, in ■ a direct line, about ten miles, although, ■.unless the, country is familiar to the traveller, it will take over \ l!> to reH.Mli it. Wetherstone'H flat is being gradually worked down towards the junction, and many are doing well. The miners complain bitterly that they are always beiupc swamped out by every storm, and ! that lots'of ground that would pay well is thus ren- • derod unworkable. It is to be hoped the Government will, without any tantalising delay, ■ have a storm water channel cut,'into which not only the supera- ■ bnndant water, but the sludge, may Row, and be carried off to the sea, • ; , . , i

During the past week we have had rain almost| everyday; and as I now write,'the constant drip from the eaves is a reminder that it has not ceased. It would be interesting to know how many days in the year work can be carried on in Otago, in order to determine.the exact cost»of the gold produced. . Perhaps snine of your statisticians in Dunedin could supthe requisite information.
