MINING.
Our Walporl correspondent informs us that Messrs Cox and Clifford washed up after a month's running on Saturday last. The cake obtained, although barely so heavy as the one for tbe previous month, was up to the average. Tho mine still looks very promising, and it is expected thnt the noxt crushing, which will take place towards the end of the present month, will be an exceptionally good one. Ten hands are employed in the mine — Tuapcka Times
