The prospects today from the drive on No." 2: reef are first-class, and never looked better., Somo good stuff is also being hauled from the main shaft.

Driving on the Ajax lodo was resumed by the company, and somo very good prospects were got yesterday and the day previous.

The Golden Arrow new lodo has recoivcd little or no attention yet. No men •at work in claim, but several visitors broko' somo .stuiF out to-day, and it pounded well. ' ; ' :■

Some very fair prospects were ot tained to-day from Prater's ground, ad jacent to the Era.

Tlie Era grouud is to bo gono oyer to-morrow, the prospectors promising to show whence they got tho gold. Tlio visit of Captain Goldsmith is eagerly looked for by storekeepers and others, who are-to intorviow him, and insist upon the necessity of seeing the ground fully manned. The Inspeotor of Polico came up yesterday, and looked at tho reserve, with tho probable intention of erecting temporary accommodation for a man or two.
