The Gold In the Ocean. tKa fet that sea water contained gold was first made patent, we be v,vn hv tha observation that the J.V.v., ;j the copper .plating or jetty piles in sea harbors was com- parntively ncn in n metal. On the estimate that a ton of sea water contains approximate ly one grain, the yield would .mnnnt to something like 200 tons cf gold per cnbio mile, and as the volume of the woria s occhu mated at 400.000,000 cabio miles, the total possible yield of gold would be no less than 100.000.000, ()00 tons a truly attractive pros pect to the company promoter. We now learn that a serious at tempt is to he made to wrest a pro portioivat anv rata, of this vast wealth from the sea, and that a company is about to start the nec essary machinery and plant some where on the south coast of Eng-land.
