It notes the independent spirit within colonial institutions, a new hymn book integration in Adelaide churches, and mining prospects at Mount Granger with hopes for payable ore. It also mentions thrift movement figures and a speech in Croydon on pauper statistics.

Nadbuck Copper Mine reports rich sulphide ore at north shaft
The Nadbuck Copper Mine notes a new discovery at the 70 to 200 ft levels with a strong black ore lode near the north shaft. Water issues hindered early work but a splendid footwall and rich sulphide samples, including yellow and purple ore, indicate a permanent vein. Explorers anticipate a major ore body as drives extend to 250 ft.
