THE WAUKARINGA GOLDFIELD

While we should be sorry, after the recent Kimberley fiasco, to write a line which might induce any of our readers to believe that an expedition to Waukaringa would lead to certain fortune, it is not to be denied that the new South Australian field seems to promise to turn out very satisfactorily. A few particulars regarding the new diggings, gleaned from the South Australian Chronicle of 23rd October last, will doubtless be read with interest. From that source we learn that Waukaringa {not Wankaringa as some times printed)is about 225 miles N.N.E. of Adeiaide and about 12 to 14 miles from Teetulpa, which is the scene of the recent rush. Both places are of easy access, there being railway com munication to Mannahill, a place situated only 18 miles from Teetulpa. The work is at present confined to a small dry gully 01 watercourse running from south-west to north-east. It is scarcely sufficiently well-defined to de serve the name of a creek, and would only run when there had been a heavy fall of rain on the neighboring rises. There is nothing to particularly indicate the presence of gold about the general look of the place, and the first find was made almost by chance. follow ing is the account of the discovery as given by Brady, who, with his partner T. Smith, found the first nuggets, and has claimed the Government reward of ,£IOOO for .the discovery of a pay able alluvial goldfield :—-“ It was Tuesday afternoon, October 5, that I found the first gold, just about the centre of the gully. We had then been searching about a week. We picked up about an ounce and a half, and then we took out about four buckets of stuff, but could find nothing more by turning it over. Then we washed it, getting another half ounce, 01 about 20Z in an hour and a half. I was at Bendigo in 1852, and was the first to mark a hole in the California Gu’ly. This place is not like the Bendigo gullies in appearance, but there are gullies not far from here exactly like those of early Victorian diggings. I have been about six miles north-east of this, and there I think it looks exceed ingly well for gold. lam certain they will get it on the flits, and I believe no one ever saw so much gold got so soon without water as here. I believe many pounds worth of gold is being thrown away everv day, owing to inability to wash the dirt. None has been washed, except just here and there a little trial in a dish. The bottom of tha gully is all slaty, just like where we got the first gold, and I believe it will yet be one of the finest fields in Australia. My son and Smith have picked up several nice nuggets, one about an ounce and another about half that weight. All the gold I have seen is smooth and water-worn.” The Chronicle's reporter supplies the following further particu lars : —“ On the Saturday after the first find about 30 men were on the ground, and the number is now (October 23) reckoned by the warden to be over 150. The largest nugget which has yet been discovered was taken out on Friday bya miner named Byrnes. It was thought at first to be over 50Z in weight, but when placed on the scales at Waukaringa it went 40Z isdwt. On Saturday Smith found about 2 oz in small nuggets; another man named Varrel found loz on the same day. Along with his party of six the latter has been successful in getting over 3 ozs in two days, having searched without result during the first part of the week. The sinking has hitherto all been in the bed of the creek, down to 7ft. in depth, and all the gold has been got out of the wash brought down from the higher slopes by the flood watets of many years. Digging for the gold is a simple task. The gravel and slate rock is easily worked with knives, and, in fact, any. instrument composed of steel or iron.” The writer, however, goes on to state that it is impossible to say what the permanent value of the alluvial field will be until water is pro vided, and the stuff can be washed ; and he adds that there is nothing as yet to justify any large rush to the spot, although the prospects are good. “ The cost of living is not more than 12s per week, but a man could take with him to the ground pretty well enough rations to keep him going for two or three weeks, and people who are not inclined to give a few weeks’ actual labor in trying to find payable gold should not go there.” Since the above was published news is to hand of the - finding of a 30 oz nugget, and altogether Waukaringa appears to pro mise well, and to be likely to turn out one of the best new goldfields dis covered for many years. It will, how ever, be well for New Zealanders to await further news before betaking themselves to the new field lest it should turn out to be only a patch after all.

PERFORMING SEALS.

Three performing seals are to be seen at the Westminister Aquarium in London. They perform on such musical instru ments as the bauj), guitar, drum and cymbals ; they smoke ; and, In the comic part of thoir performance, a blind member of the trio p'ays the part of the needy knife grinder ; while another, left to rock the candle, overturns its baby charge into the tank. They dive from heights, carrying sticks out of tha water as re triever dogs do, and citch fish, and take them unhart to their master : and one of them has been taught to save life. 1 man is launched on a raft into the tank, and when the raft capsizes the seal seizes him by the collar of his coat, and swim ming on i f s tack, si as, with the lower portion of its body, to keep the man’s head above the water, tows him to shore, so establishing hia worthiness to be a member of the life saving service.

SANDER and SONS’ EUCALYPTI EX TRACT.—Cure of Skin Diseases.. Invercar gill, N.Z., 3rd of July, 1880. Messrs Sander and Sons, SandhurstGentlemen.— Having suffered from eczema (a skin disease which is very prevalent in this colony) for about nine years, I had consulted numerous medical men here and in Australia, and had taken arsenic, strychnine, iodide of potassium, etc , inter nally, and had used preparations of zinc and lead externally. In fact, I had tried all the remedies known to the faculty, and what between travelling, doctors’ and druggists’ bills, had spent a small fortune, almost, if not wholly, without result*, except to injure my constitution. During a recent visit to Hoki tika I was recommended to try your Extract Eucalyptus Globulus by a brother who had experienced great benefit from it in alleviat ing a very severe cold, and no less to my surprise than satisfaction, I found the disease which troubled me so long was conquered, and the akin resumed its normalconduion. This was effected by the external use of leas than two two-onnoe bottles. Yours, etc, Signed John H. Kerr, ManagerUniou Bank. o( Australia, Limited.—(AdYt.)
