A New Supply of Amber.

News of another valuable discovery comes from British Columbia. This time it is not gold, but amber. The banks of the Saykusp Creek, flowing into Jervis Inlet, on the eastern shores of the Straits of Georgia, are, it is claimed, able to supply the world with amber for at least a century.
