THE RUSH TO TE AROHA.

{BY TELEGRAPH.—OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

THAMES, this day. Considerable excitement exists over the new find at To Aroha. Quite a number of claims have been pegged off on line of reef, indications in stone so good. The " Advertiser " pigeon message this' morning says : " I have just returned from Hone's new find at Te Aroha; the only present road is over Te Aroha mountains, froiu tho Trig station, off which the find lies, about due East, and distant about two miles. The reef is crop ping out and can be seen above the tops of tho trees for miles. It runs direct tor the Waini Plains, and seems a continuation of thesamorua of reefing country, the stone being very similar. Mr T. Gavin and my self bored a hole two feet deep in the footwall portion of tho reef, displacing about two tons of quartz which showed gold freely. I should estimate it to be worth about 2ozs. per ton, leaving gold showing freely. We discovered a nice patch of specimen stone about 30 feet fur ther along. The gold is very fiae but thick in the stone, making it quite a jellow colour. There is no work done on the reel in the neighbourhood of the find, nor for miles on either side, but the reef is well worth prospecting. The ground is all pegged off for a distance of about three miles in five acre leases, so there is_ little chance for outsiders, the holders being all Tc Aroha people and natives.

MINING NEWS.

MINE MANAGERS' REPORTS.

Babket's (Tiki). —Road Level: 1 have dtiyen 5 feet on the banging wall leader, through stiff country. The leader iis split up, stringers of quartz showing alt over the face. No 2. leader (near Matawai boun dary). I started a drive last Saturday, and it is now in 9 feet. 'The leader has in creased considerably and is now from 12 inches to 15 inches in width. Saw a few stones showing colours of gold last Friday. On breaking down leader today, gold showed in several atones, but nothing worth saving for picked stone. The drive will have to be extended 12 feet further, to get under where I first got gold in this leader on the surface.—C= H. Bennett, October 10.

Tiersan's.— Since my last report, there is not much change in the mine. The main drive is iv 53 feet. The reef ia the face is 2 feet 6 inches thick, but showing no gold yet. Higher up, I fonnd another leader about 1 foot. Obtained a lew pounds of atone from it showing coarse gold freely. 1 am putting in a drive to cut it, about 12 feet from the crop, to test i>s value. The result of the crushina is 1350z5. 15dwts. melted gold.—James Mubkay, October 12. Southkbn Cross.—l have been stoping on both sides of winzo below battery level on No. 1 reef, but the quartz crushed has been >rery poor. I think it will improve as it is risen upon. The quartz broken from hanging wall No. 1 reef has a very good appcarauce for gold, but does not shew up for much at the batrery. I intend to'rise on this for a few days to see if it will im prove upwards. Twenty-three loads of quartz and 181bs picked stone have be«n crashed for a return of 34ozs 13dwts re torted pold.—James Cotjtts, October 12. DAWN (Tokatka).—The mine manager writes stating tbat a few colours of gold have been seen in the stone, and that better prospects are expected.

[BY TELEGKAPH.]

UNION.—Mr D. G. Macdonald has received the following : "Lodged 501b9 fair specimens in Bank of New Zealand, which makes 051ba in all.—Thos. Caekoll."

[Fkom the Cokomandel Mail.]

ToKATEA.—There is no change in the country in the low level. We arc still go ing through light ground with the leader pinched and not looking so well as at date of last report. Since the hard belt came in the driving has been unusually dry, and nothing has been seen in the quartz broken out. The contractors have driven 20 feet for the week. The rise is up 43 feet. The country much the Bame as that we arc going through in the main level, the leader in the roof has slightly improved, but is still broken and mixed up with the clay in the dig. The winze is down 72 feet, leaving about 75 feet to break through. As the sinking is now getting rather troublesome, owing to the strong underlie and a little water making in the country, all work in this direction will be stopped to-morrow. Its present depth is as far as we intended to go, leaving the rise to finish the balance, which, I expect, will be completed in about three weeks. Stoping will be commenced in the main level on Saturday with some of the men taken from the winze. Tributes : Knox and McNeil's parties' are getting a little gold. Boswell's are not getting much. The other parties are prospecting.—John P. Hall.

Colonial.—Since my last report the upper level has been driven 5 feet, making the distance 37 feet in nil. The low level has not been kept on the whole time—the distance driven being 3 feet. It carries a strong leader, and looks well. The ground is hard in each level, and progress is slow ; total length, 55 feet. The stope has been carried on 16 feet, and about 451bs. of specimens obtained therefrom.—ltEOKGE Stevens. ' Nessisde.— I commenced work on Mon day in the 40 feet level, getting specimens and rich crushing dirt at every breaking, down. Two men were started to work on No. 2 lead ahead to get under a good shot of gold worked above. It is expected that about 90 feet of driving will cnt the run' of gold, giving about 30 or 40 feet of backs. I banked 49lbs. of specimens on Monday, making a total of 79lbs. now in the bank. —Angus McNeill, 12th October. Thrush.—We have extended the level 7 feet 6 inches this week. Total distance now driven is 10 feet 6 inches, 45 feet, more will bring us up to our boundary. There is little or no change in the ground or leader since my last report. I have been following" up a trial of gold on the surface, and have traced it up to the leader aboul 30 feet south of where we first cut the leader in the level. I can get a very good prospect of loose gold in the leader, have not seen any in. the stone; but as a rule, if they get loose gold in the Colonial, they ate not tar away from specimens. I hope it may prove so in our case.— Henry Tiiodk. Golden Spue have completed laying down 200 feet tramway, and a contract has been let at 25s a foot to carry the niaiu cross-cut through the hard bar. Union Beach.—Daniels, the tributer, is very unwell, but work is proceeding on a3 usual. The wiDze is down 19 feet, and gold visible the whole distance. A parcel of 4wo tons is being crushed at the Corby battery. Hope are driving on both levels, rand getting good gold in the lower one.

THEATRE ROYAL.

"WAITING FOR THE VERDICT."

Til a new drama,'' Waiting for the Verdict," waß introduced last night at the Theatre for tUe first time by the Australian Com* puny. The piece, however, did not attract quite so large an audience as anticipated. The drama was founded on the celebrated picture published some years ago, and which shadows forth the nature of the play ;n which the accused waits with all the evi dent intensity of suspense for the "yea " or "nay" of the jurors. There is nothing extraordinary in the plot, beyond what might be expected. Mr Leakc's represen tation of the Borrow-stricken old man, Jonathan Roscblade, was a striking and natural impersonation, and tended to give to it a natural realisation. He lived in a country cottage which excites the envy of the Lord of the Manor, Who is anxious to become'its possessor. Such jealousies were frequent in the old country, even in the present century. The other associations of the story arc also true of the past. The steward of my Lord's estate is prompted to lay a snare for the envied tenant, and prq. cents a hare which, of course, is (ame, and consequently informs upon the Roseblades. The cbaractcrs of Ja?per (Mr A. Elliott), and Martha (Miss Tanner), were repre sented with considerable merit. Mr Gerald Dillon appeared as Lord Elmore, and Mr James O'Brien as Lieut. Florville. The acting of these gentlemen assisted materially in interesting the audience. A challenge to a duel ensues between these two gents, arising out of a trifling event, bat it is not consummated. Several ~>ther chaiacters were especially praiseworthy; Magaia Knight, as Sarah Sawyer, Mr Lachlan McGownn, as Blinkcy Brown, and Mr Campbell, as Sir Henry Harrington. One of the intending duellists is murdered and robbed. A Court of Justice is in order for the trial of the wrong man. Old Rosobladc exerts himself to secure a respite, believing in the inno cence of the accused. Almost at the last moment, when every preparation has been made for the finul drop, the reprieve comes, and the accused is liberated. The audience testified general approval, and several of the performers received floral token? of such approval. The scenery and effects wcro in harmony with the consecutive incidents of the drama, which will be repeated this evening. Kichard 111., the title role of which is one of MrLcake's specialities, will be produced to morrow evening, and " Foiled," an Austra lian drama, will be placed on the boards on Monday. Extensive preparations in the way of becnery and mechanical effects are being made, and it promises to be a success in every way. The drama is highly spoken of by the press wherever it has been pro dacc(L

' (To tho Kditor.) Pin,— Replying to your correspondent eißned " Anti-Cant," it is well known that no vereo In the Now Testament ocoura, giving distinctly tho change of tho; abbathfrom the seventh day of thowook to the first, unless indeed, John xx. c. 1 v., may bo quoted inferentially. Neither cm a Bingla verse bo quotod which to tho in telligent reader conveys the idea that the Cabbath was to bo abolished under the now dispensation; bat on the con trary, Instances ot ono day in seven set apart for rest and worship aro many, starting from Acts, nc.,7 v. Hoferrin? to Collosslons, li. c, 1G v., and Galatlans iv. 0., 10 and 11 Vi; let any person but (five thnso two epistloa a caroful and candid reading, and auch will easily dis cover the general tendency and moaning of the Apostle's exhortation oontained therein, viz , warnlngagalnstiudaising teachers who were con stantly found seeking to Impose burdens on tho pooplo which belonged Bololy to the old Jewish dispensation, and existing to-day in that Kltaol ism which keeps occasionally cropping up in the Knglish Anglican Church. In reference to tho Auckland Museum, all success to It, and tho writer would bo right glad to add anything to its onrios were it In his power, but It must bo maintained that thoro la a tlmo and placo for every proper tnintr. Mankind are in general brimful of the Becular during six busy days, and'tho mind, tho heart, and tho soul need that rest from thia un onding aooular which was intended on ono day in sevon; and inspection of works of solenco anil art aro certainly not tho rest roquired. If wo aro to - grovel on tho Christian Sabbath among what may not inaopropriately be termed toys, which cannot and never will meet man's great need, there ia no real rest gained. His inward want, if not stifled, ia for something infinitely higher. That continual cant about the working man, Mr Kditor, I do from the bottom of my heart deteat. Haa tho working man not tho same higher wants as all other men? And is the Christian Sabbath really opposed to his beet welfare? No, but tlia very reverse, and niOßt sensible and thoughtful mechanics know this fuH well, and the majority know who are their best mends. A similar exhibition of what may bo termed working men's cant is to ba seen la political life, hollow, empty talk, yet withal bo easy! Sir George Groy ia ono particular noted instance of this. And when some ot these same men have been solicited repeatedly (as Sir G. Grey has by the writer and others) for any practical help towards benefiting tho working man's children, year by year there ia not the response of ono shilling! And Is It the usual frequenter of tho Sunday museum who will. In aoneral, seek after both the moral and spiritual woll - being of the working man's children by various voluntary efforts] The answer may be left with the thinking working man himself—hia qyca ara quite sufiloiontly opon.—l am, &o, S. Root. .... P.S.—I would suggest. Mr Kditor. that It any further remarks ore ofiered by " Anti-Cant," or any other correspondent, on thia toplo, the writer's name should bo given; other wise, cant Is rather fostered.—S.B.
