Oparau.
(from our own correspondent.)
Tbe yarn about natives killing the rout in the Oparau rivera in not true. Mr Charles Stewart caught some and let them go again. It is true the trout are eaid to be about 11b. weight now, strong and healthy, so that in a few years they will undoubtedly have in cseased sufficiently to warrant the eccieiy issuing licences. The task of country school teachers proves the rotten rules of the Education Board. Are not our children and our teachers as deserving as those in more populouii districts ? Weather has been hot for a week, but frost has again started and should kill blight in potato ground. The turnips put in are not a success but more has to be learned of Southern farming, when good crops will be grown.
