Gulgong Mining Report
The mining affairs at Cloudy Bay and in fact all the way through Rouse’s paddock up Ford’s Creek, and around Glazier’s and Hutchinson’s paddocks, will continue to be permanently prosperous, although no very brilliant finds have been announced. A large population derive a good support and in many cases manage to make very good wages. No doubt that further prospecting will result in opening many new leads.

Glazier’s
Hitherto the shafts bottomed in Wall’s paddock which adjoins Glazier’s bush paddock, have only paid wages; but it has been ascertained that instead of being the main lead it was only a feeder. James Fitzpatrick and party, the original prospectors in Wall’s and Glazier’s paddocks have succeeded in finding the main run of gold at a depth of 50 feet and about 100 yards east of the old working. Gold can be distinctly seen in the dirt which from 20 to 30 feet wide. The prospects are form half to one dwt. to the dish.

Accident
We regret to learn that Mr. P. B. Cooke, formerly assistant in the Post Office but now keeping a public house in Glazier’s paddock, met with an accident yesterday between Gulgong and the race course. He was driving two young ladies in Mr. Green’s buggy for a change to the town and when returning it appears that the spirited horse answered too quickly to the rein, the wheels became locked and there was a spill of all hands. Mr. Cooke was brought to town by one of the coaches and Dr. Bennett was sent for. We are happy to say that the young ladies were not much hurt and that the bruises sustained by Mr. Cooke are not considered of a very serious nature. The damage to the buggy is inconsiderable.

In Glazier’s Paddock, although nothing new had been discovered, the claims already on gold continue to yield fair returns. The washing during the past week have kept fully up to an average and many of the claims give much more than wages.
