Tho Electric No. 1 dredge is still on pcor ground, and shareholder? here would like to H*e one of these dredges jjut en ths Clutha River. Tho Clutha River dr,edge has mad© another start, the new crown wheel havingbeen placed in position on Tuesday. The ground i 3 now improving, and should more than pay expenses. Mr Sutherland has made a start to put tho small pontoom on the flartley »nd Riley dredge, and this will be a great improvement.
