CORRESPONDENCE.

THE CAB ACCIDENT INGENIOUSLY EXPLAINED AWAY.

(To tho Editor.) I Sre,-On reading tho City Surveyor's report to •■■'* the Council, I was much astonished at the vmS ? modeatway in which ho reported the cause S H the accident that haa happened, and is likely to i prove such a disgrace to the city of Auckland I I must candidly confess that to my niinrt r# the City Surveyor did not let tho ComSS I know the whole truth hi reference to the abav» ■ subject. He reports two small heaps of ckv about a cartload each, remaining on the side of m the street, although over fifty men could promt there were over two loads in one heap • whlla II on the opppsite side there were not less thin '-m thirty loads. There was also a most remarkahln ■' 3 and disgraceful mound of clay, stoneß and 'if metal along the whole length of road, lft. 6in ' above the surface ana over tho mnSa made drainj which was sufficient m "'-I itself to frighten man or beaßt, and which i should not have been allowed to remain In any i '. finished street. I trust the City Council will sea' I to it before another accident oocurs.—Yours/-w A Looker Os.

CAB FARES.

(To the Editor.) Sir,—l sincerely trust that Inspector Goldio wil ;:;$ proceed with vigour against those cabmen who "J persistently set the city by-laws at defiance. IV h| is the constant complaintof cltizensand vlsitora that the fares demanded are extortionate, and ' '3 frequently double tho legal charge. As the public are still ignoring, to a great extent, the ill proper fares, the carrying into effect of tho " W by-law making tho tendency of a hand- -43 bill of fares compulsory, will make strangers ■81 and others aware whether they are Iming overcharged or not. The fares provided by ■is the present City By-laws are most liberal. 'M and higher than any other city in the Colonies, I so that Master Cabby has nothing to compkhiHSl of if he gets simply the fare he is entitled to, H^Ja a few of the persons occasionally victimised' s-ip would prosecute the culprits tho community,:. Si would be benoflttedL and so no doubt would tho^H luck of the respectable cab proprietors.— l am; - &c, Nemo, ';'

MINING NEWS.

(Fkom the "Coromandel Mail/^9

Tokatea.—A visit to this renowned' mine shows things looking well, .sub! stantial work is being done; and an* improvement is visible in the severali faces. In the main level there is a h\g' but broken lode with promising look«| ing stone. In the intermediate thtf| reef which has for a week past beenvi split up, is now coming together again,-| In the stopes a little gold is showing, ; : \ but stoping operations will not be-i fairly started until the rise now going.-;! up is high enough to get a leading;!; stope, when a face will be carried each^; way. Shareholders have to exercise i patience, as it takes time to develop so 1 enormous a block of the reef as is now being worked. Work ie being carried I on methodically, and on a gigantic ,; scale. Everything has to be secured > with substantial timbers to ensure permanence, involving great labourI.l^ Some may think the intermediate leyeljl has been a long time reaching the line of winze ; but it has to be borne in. ' ' mind that this level has already been <- : carried in between four and live liuu* ■ dred feet, and that it has yet to ba driven a further distance of sixty feef^|ji After this is accomplished a rise has.taj|| be put up fifty or sixty feet to <x>nneot|§ with the winze, at the botom of •which^i golden stone was left. When this sco ■.*! tion of work is done one of the most ■ important blocks in the mine can be ■■* operated on to advantage; and it is to. be hoped the results will Tie as gratify* ;| ; ing to shareholders as it h generally I believed will be the case. . ; igm ';r3

CotoKiAK.—This mine is looking | ■well. In the stopea a little picked I stone is being got, and the level carried to the Bakaia winze has led to the im portant discovery that the Coloniallodo I is the continuation of that worked mth such good result by the new Rakala in ' former days. The winze sunk by ih£ . last mentioned was understood to have I proved that the lode died out, instead I of which present operations prove its I continuous character, and also that it la w gold-producing for a great distance, ths '■;: point at which, gold" is now being' ob tained being about 150 feet from, where . ; the first patch was got in the poloniaL, a Hope is going to have a crushing. Stanley is gradually being opened Jj up, and it is believed bright prospects'!"| are before shareholders. ,' ~i Bismarck.—Operations are going oa'-, I the same as laßt week, without any- ' i thing special to record, excepting that 3 there is a talk of some sections of the- M mine being let on tribute, i ■ ': ; i .')M Gem.—The last level started h&^M been driven about 65 feet. On Thnrs* 'M day there was a fine looking leader.! about eight inches wide showing in tha ~M face. . ' i Queen of the ITobth.—This excel* M lent mine is yielding some nice stqno-'.'jj occasionally, and the tributers appear'^f! to meet with encouraging prospect. Hornbeook (tributor) got 161b.5. of s I specimens on Friday, worth probably M half-an-ounce to the pound. , j;^ Beoughton (tributor) is getting good o'ja prospects, and another tribute party :fA in.jihe Queen of the, North have soma^l picked stone and good dust prospects, t| 4da have] put up the rise nineteen ■ ? or twenty feet, and • have commenced: j| Btoping. ",.,,' 'i-iM Success appears to ba shaping again, §| The manager has been successful ia ; picking up a new runiof gold as pre^j viously recorded, which may prove qrJIS great value to the company. Kafanqa. —Good lodes, such as are(.,|j in hand in this mine, may reasonably '.'I bo expected to cause a stir one of these ;|| days, and will most likely dp so. ThpSj' Jf far, though a little gold is continually f m met with, the brilliant haul of specii4i mens has not yet been dropped upon.- I Just in TiME.—The work of erecting,3 the machinery is progressing satisfac-' \> torily. \ ' ■ ~ ■ .„ „'■ ffl

THE TIKI.

Blackmobe.—Anotherlodgmentofgoldl of 176 ounces brings this mine again « before the public in a most favourable,!! light. -The yield above referred to iss the result of a broken period of crush-f ing, as owing to various causes the mmdi ■was not kept going constantly for ( tb^ii fortnight. , «§

Home Rule.—Excellent crtishipg^lj stuff has been broken oiit.dun^gl^ifrjji webk, and since the discovery of ilia, jjj cross leader good picked stone has been >*g obtained from it. The low level is g^;*|f. ing ahead. ' 1 Golden Belt.—The manager is. M stripping the leader and arranging .&B'«|j| a permanent paddock previous to break-1,; I ing down. '""''vdlH Vaughajt and Vizard's new .finirfcjj attracted the usual attention for this.;t| week, and many a proprietor was to bfl ;f| seen mounting the declivity to criticise";)! the important discovery made bythi»j/£| experienced miners abore mentioned.; v^| The further development of thia lino of ifl reef will be waited with interest.
