ALLEGED SWINDLE IN PACIFICS.

COROMANDEL,

This day.

There i« great excitement re a supposed swindle iff the New Pacific Company. Several ©en holding prominent positions in connection with the mine are rumoured to be implicated in it. Scrip was bought by them and a call made to depreciate the value of shar.es so as to buy at a low figure. The charges are laid by McCormick, a large shareholder. There will probably be a great exposure if true. Buckland, one of the directors assaulted McCormick this morning, and AlcCorinick summoned him. The case comes on for hearing on Wednesday next. Mining news is unimportant. It" is probable that a dinner will be given to Mr Home on Wednesday for services ren dered at the Revision Court. ■
