....— — -♦ (Wbstjpobt Times ) It is with pleasure I once more l>ringj the favored prospects of this district under youF notice. We live in a. land here teeming with unearthed metal, or mineral, such as gold, iron &c. We only require a little capital, patience, and* perseverance to bring to light the hidden resources, of this district. I will at once take you to the Red,. Queen mine on the south side of the river. There you can see the gold in and about you everywhere. The directors find other intesested deserve respect for their perseverance in prospecting this mine under great disadvantages, such as bad roads- and being located in a mountainous region. Next we come to is the Southsru Light and Invincible ; both claims stand eg ually.sa^ytt^^y.i.W^re^y**^ Next is the South Pacific, which*. from. • its commanding position and ihe fact that a go'ld-lMKiriiig reef has been found in the claim $ will, when more extensive prospecting is done, take its proper place as one of the premier claims of the locality. Then we have, on the north side, the Empire,. Mokihiuui, Guiding Star, Morning-Star,. and Golden Crown, all really good properties for investment. I "may say the Guiding Star has struck magnificent. .gold lately. If these reef s were in Reef ton or Lyell districts they would show a : .different appearance, as there would t then be 100 men at wori- for each.single individual we have here at present. But look at the road we have to the reefs iWheii fwe have to carry on bur backs * every morsel of fpod. and otljer necessaries, and ..all. . mining, material it is really L wonderful- how men are able to hold out I, sir, had the privilege of -the same kind of ' employment about. 18---years ago, when digging for alluvial gold, and here we aro to day with' • very little ' better facilities. „ "•■'; '• "; . . .■■ • .
