[[Beechworth|BEECHWORTH]] MINING DISTRICT (SPRING CREEK.)-Alluvial miners, 2.290; quartz, 20; Chinese, 2,139; showing a decrease since last month of 870 Europeans, and an increase of 539 Chinese. The nature of the diggings in this district is almost entirely alluvial-nine-tenths of which are under 30 feet in depth. There are many quartz-reefs but they are almost untouched, except two or three at Myrtleford. At Bowman's Forest the lead has only been defined up to the 10th claim.
