RAILWAY RETURNS.
We compile the following from the Government Gazette, of the 19th instant, giving the traffic returns for the four weeks ending Sept. 16tli, 1882, on the Wanganui section of railway : — 1882. 1881.
As we stated would be probable, whec I commenting on the returns for the period
ending Autjust 19th, a considerable incronse is here apparent, viz., £792 8s lOd over the corresponding period in 1881. and an advance of £1321 75s 6d over i he prorious uionth. It is satisfactory to know that Feilding has contributed nearly the whole of this increase 10 tin 1 revenue — a fjood criterion of the incre.-tsin<* prosperity of the district. T i i c current period promises to show similar excellent results.
