The Taihapo Post, in satiric il vein, say s : — ll Spring tnuas lie comiog ! We bavo had whitebait at Wanganui, spring ports at Mangawrka, blooming buib3 at Palmr.rfctcn Notfcb, aril now we read of wattle blooms at Oait9r!or, Utilii, Matnroa, Torere, Ohutu, Turangarere, end Pukeo kabu bave still their winter garment oi mud, It is about the only production in these paris.'’ Tbe closing of the hotels in Invercargill has materially incroascd the 11 unearned incromont ” of tbe botols in tho neighbor ing districts. Too loseoo of one within a few miles cf Invercargill, who went into tho placo some years ogo at a total cost of £7OO, has disposed of his goodwill for .£3OOO, tho frcokold of the property changing hands at another iGIOOO. Two young men rushiDg olong Tinakoii road, Wellington, about 9.30 in the evening collided with a girl named Rosy Eatall, 14 yeats of ogo, resulting in her sustaining concussion of the brain. The sufferer and a companion named Agnes MoDougall, 15 years of oge, had been at a Band of Hopo meeting in Sydney street, and were on Ibeir way borne via Sydney etroot cutting and Tinrkori road when (wo young men approached them at a run near tho post ollioe store in Tinakori road. Miss MeDougall eteppod aside in timo to avert a collision, but her companion being less fip unate, was knocked violently on tho korbstonr. Mies MoDougall screamed, and in a few minutes her people and some neighbors appeared on the sceno and found Mieß Estali stunned, Dr Gilmer was summoned, and examining the patient found her to bo suffering from o; ncussion, and directed her removal to bar home in Glonbocvie terrace The young men, after knocking the girl over, are a ! bged to have continued runnirg without in any way assisting the Buffertr or ascertaining what had transpired. The Hamilton correspondent of tiie New Zealand Herald states An important discovery of rich gold bearing reef is reported from tho King Country. For a number of years many people have been of opinion that gold was to be found there, but the wilderness of the country and the opposition offered by the Maoris prevented anything in the way of systematic prospecting. In the present instance an old miner who spent several years there found the reef, and shortly afterwards died. He however, had handed to a friend a rich specimen, and a chart allowing the position of the reef. It is stilted, however, that the chart is so crude that it is likely to be of little use in tlie discovery of the spot.
