FROM CORRESPONDENTS.

Cohomandel, This day. The Royal Oak lodged in the bank 7220zs 15dwts of gold from 7OOlbs of specimens, and about 25 tens of general stuff. A dividend was declared of 5s per share. Tokatea.—The manager's report states that a new block on the tribute leader will be commenced next week. Only 201bs of specimens were obtained during the week, showing that a dividend is not likely for some time to come; The low level will require driving another 200 feet before the golden lode is in hand— the country being hard. The City of Auckland crushing is looking very well, Who'd have thought ifc—A large yield is anticipated from the crushing now going on. Grolden Point—More good stone from the leader. r The registration roll is completed, and is hung up in the office. ! Tauban&a, This day. An amateur dramatic entertainment was given last night. It was a great success. *■'".' Sir Donald McLean will probably leave Maketu for Poverty Bay on Monday. The Times, this morning, severely handles the- Star's Maketu correspondent, for stating that a recent leader on native matters was written by Colonel St. John. It gives the statement an unqualified contradiction.
