OLD SIAM.
The shareholders have completed the baling of the water from t lie shaft, and were engaged removing the sludge from the bottom. Once this is done they will commence to clean oat the two drives. The ihaft, it has been discovered, it eon-
nected with an old winze, and the shareholders think that it is by this means that the water has found its way into the, shaft. They are sanguine of getting gold in one of the leaders in the shaft, and some pieces of stone shewing colors of gold have been found in the tip where the previous shareholders deposited their mullock. Very little work has been done, as the two drives are each not more than twenty feet in. Both these drives run towards tke Telegraph.
