Awaroa.

(FROM OUR OWN COBRE SPGSDEST.) This part of the dirr Jt has e y quiet lite’y, with nothi of sjs Umz i • portauca to note, There hat bi<m tnech ta’k of the ' , r*-ru r coming to Kawhia a.id w.iat he w-t t etc., etc., ami 9 ; nce he di 1 come there has b- en much iu auot er direct o as to the way outbilers w *re tr ate! by he.rnr »■<. eluded from the dinner thv wji ziven. From whvt I can heir, j erha. a under the circumstances it w*s nu co jv aient u* cater for the pa Jicto be ti r ha> i’ was done before wh-.-n Kuvti . i high and mighty ani b:f > e thC >unty Counci’s, Town Boir-», e and surely if worked propen • cmld have b u done thia time Anyway we ou« i paper and a short notice atatinz not convenient to ba e a pu i r would have saved a lot of ill-ie * i . and angry words being spoken. To - least of it, ft is not very nice t» r-ave r bad bush tracks, and muddy rov- , a very great inconvenience to yoor-elt <tnd horse, in some cases taking two days ■ d when arriving in Kawhia to find y u could not be admitted, as you were not a me nberof either the County Council, or i--wu Beard or one of the very favoured nnre. Thia sort of buaine-.s does not tend to hu.p the people of the district pull together such mistake has caused a lot of ill fe* n<_r. Rain has now fallen on 11 sueoesd i iinterspersed with heavy hail showers der and lightning. The rivers and ere • are all in heavy flood, and the so n*r u Government decide to build bridges r - tbe Awaroa River, and th* small creey running into the same river both f wine < ■et&lers have to ford or swim (as thee a-* be) tbe better it will be for Che doo - uif - tunatas who are compelled to use ths ro%J in winter time. Mr T. Green took a tine line of nearly lxj fat and forward bullocks to Ohaupa this week* Stock are now beginning to feel tbe winter, and feed ia getting scarce. There w.ll not be much growth for two or hr months, Mr ani Mrs La Preu/have the sy of the settlers, in the loss of their ac dation house at Te Biu-a mo». I hoped that we will soon s»a a ue v and business going on aa hef >re and Mrs Le Prou will be great! v as it is rumoured, they don't i . • ing iu business again.
