The Terawhiti Reefs.
The* Wairarapa Daily says:—The Wairarapa . Perseverance Extended Gold Mining Company of Terwhitip Limited, ' whose shareholders principally reside in G-reytown, has '• panned jorit"' one!.; ounce; and one pennnyweight of gold to the ton, from its test.pfUen, tons of quartz jnst concluded. The Directors consider this returnindicates a distinctly payable ptospect. Another .25 tons of stone, this time from a different reef on the Company's property, is in. course of preparation for trial. We had the' pleasure of inspecting a lump of unrefined gold brought to Greytown, after the recent.crushing by Messrs J. Fuller and John Jackson (Directors), and Mr; Webster (legal manager), who have returned from, Terawhiti a few days since. It weighs iiine ounces, and is worth about £3O. It is, as the ■ Irish--man said, about the size of a potato.
