The Lake affords a great variety of amusements, Filch as FISHING, SHOOTING. BOATING, YACHTING, SWIMMING, and possesses a climate that will attract visitois from every part of New Zealand. This will doubtless be the FASH lONAB LE W ATE RING-PLACE, And will be eagerly resorted to by families anxious for a complete change from the bent nnd dust of tlu towns, and the monotony of the country. Besides the charming views on every side, great interest -and amusement will be found in collecting the curious, many-colon el pebbles which abound on tho sea shore. To invalids, or persons in weak health, this will indeed be a great boon. The present terminus of the LITTLE RIVER RAILWAY is hut five minutes' walk to the Township, where sawn timber for building, and firewood, are accumulating in large quantities.
