NELSON GOLD FIELDS.
By the arrival of the Necromancer and Jane from the West Coast, and the Supply and Ann from Massacre Bay, a considerable amount of gold reached Nelson on Saturday and Sunday last. The manifest of the Necromancer gives 380 ounces, as her contribution, and we have been told, on good authority, that the passen. gers who came up in the Jane, had, amongst them, little if anything short of the like quantity. The amount brought by the Supply from Collingwood was 170 ounces, and that by the Ann from Waitapu, 33 ounces, which gives altogether between 900 and 1,000 ounces of gold from our neglected diggings. — Examiner.
