Barton. mHIS Company is projected for the purpose of purchasing and working the large area of ground commonly called Racecourse Terrace, at Arthur's Point, now held under gold-mining leases by Messrs Thomas Briggs and Robert Johnston. The position of this ground, which evidently formed the old bed of the Shotover river, combined with the fact that extraordinary yields of gold were obtained in its immediate neighborhood in the early days of the goldfield, has long led to the belief among miners that it contains a lead of gold as rich as any yet discovered on the Shotover. Mr Warden Beetham, in a recent official report, referred to the prospects of this undertaking in the following terms 1 " At Arthur's Point, I under stand that extensive operations are contemplated, with the view of testing the large terraces lying between the old workings and the Chinese holdings at the Big Beach. All attempts to trace the lead from Arthur's Point into the Terrace have hitherto proved fruitless ; but as these attempts have been entirely confined to single miners, or to small parties of men unpossessed of necessary capital to enable them fairly to prosecute the search, the ground may be considered as really unprospected. Should the lead be struck, there is every probability that it will prove a very rich one. In the opinion of experienced miners, it is likely to extend into the deep ground lying between Arthur's Point and the Arrow River." Applications for Shares, in the following form, will be received at the National Bank of New Zealand, Limited, Queenstown To the Provisional Directors oj the Arthur's Point Terrace Gold Mining Company, Limited.
