KAWARAU GORGE.
SCHOOL IVSIecTOR’s VISIT. A Horticultural Shew was held at Kawarau Gorge, on Thursday, 14th October current. What ! at a place sc insignificant as the Gorge! Yes; and oiuso ineffably grand, its importance demands, at least a cursory glance. Twenty-one ver\ young plants wore exposed for examination,'here being present also a teacher, who for' the past twelve months has attended assiduously to their cultivation. Parent stems of the yonim flowers were also present, washing anxiously their growth. To crown die scene, the Judge (or Examiner) displays that talent which is so difficult to attaVi in treating such very young plants. Tlfe atmosphere felt impregnated witli that congenial affectionate confidence which insure success in so arduous a duty. It was altogether such a great success as cannot be purchfsod in this wilderness, even by gold. 1 trust the Otago Education Board will long retain he services of such an efficient examiner. \
In the turmoil of political change, I hope the memory of the pioneers of this\and will be respected in guarding sacredly th\ Educational and Hospital Ordinances. Observer.
