CROWN PRINCESS.
Driving on No 3 lode has now broke through with the specimen leader, this has also opened out a new off-shoot from No 3, of a kindly character, in which gold is visible, but the size is notially^scer*-? taxned; the junctional lode in the face of the drive is about 2 feet 6 inches, and from whence a few pounds of picked stone were obtained. The whole of the leaders indicate an increased size under-foot, and probably will well repay sinking the contemplated new level, which has been kept back owing to difficulty connected with the erection of tramway across Pollen street. This however, has been arranged, and the structure will be proceeded with directly as. well as sinking the required depth,_ 70 feet; making 310 altogether. Crushing will be resumed in the ensuing week.
