The claim is situate at Bedstead Gully, Cbllingwood, and comprise! over thirty-fire acres held under lease, fourteen and a-half of which hare been recently acquired: There is a Battery of Twenty Stamper* at the Mine, ten of which hare been in use for about three years, and are at present, in perfect working order; the others were recently erected, and only require the tables being laid to be ready for use. The Mine has been opened in various places by lerels and an inclined drive, from these 6812 tons have been crushed, yielding 26560z5. gold, or £10,090 12s. Od., equal to an average of over 7dwt«. 19grs. gold per ton—worth about 755. 6d. per ounce. The power for working the Battery at present used is derived from a race, the fluming of which was all new, and the earthwork repaired in 1871, and which can be made capable of carrying sufficient water to drive the twenty stampers. I There is also a single-stamp Battery, Retort-houie, Manager's residence, Stables, Huts, 4c, and all the usual plant of a mine. Further particulars can be obtained at the Mine from the Mining Manager, or from JOHN B.

The Company is being formed for the purpose of working of the coal seams of the Mount Rochfort District, on the West Coast of New Zealand, the natural outlet of which is the Ngakawau river, with the object of supplying to New Zealand, from her own soil, a coal at once superior in quality and lower in price than can be obtained in New South Wales. Its evaporating. power, is considerably higher than Grey river coal, which has up to the present been' considered the best, available coal in New Zealand, j and tested against the average New South Wales coal delivered,in this country, it possesses 25 percent more evaporative power, rendering it, consequently, of one fourth more value, which in addition to the saving of labor and space, is for ocean steamers a great consideration. A lease of 400 acres has been obtained, and the 1 whole of it is believed to contain coal. A larger area, extending into Mount Frederic, has been applied for in order that the operations of the Company maj be conducted on a scale commensurate with its national importance. The thickness of the seam is now over 20 feec. ~ . At present the ■ p.s. Result is supplying Westpori with coal from this mine, and small craft are carry* ing away coal from the pit's month at 10s. per ton. Comparatively inexpensive harbor works will render the river available for vessels drawing 10 feet of ' water; but it may be improved indefinitely. A mine possessing these advantages can at once secure a ready market both in this country and in Victoria ;—the quantity of New South Wales ooal alone consumed last year in. this .country exceeding 100,000 tons, and a demand for Ngakawau having already sprung up in Melbourne.
