Pahiatua to Makuri.

The journey from Pahiatua to> Maknri has been written up to such an extent that it cannot he new to any one from North to South, far less the readers of local papers, who have had the road depicted as 1 a sea of mud served up in a multitude of ways. For the. last few months, however, the weather has been such as to alter the whole aspect, and the Valley Road, from an almost impassable pack track has become a splendid coach , road, which only requires a little energy on the part of the contractor for the metalling to make it all that can be desired, and together with a couple of the bridges that have been placed in such a position that wings .must be put tin to them on account of the confined approach. The metalling contract should have been let two months earlier, .; 'and then the contract would have had' a good show of being completed before the wet season sets in. As it is only some two miles are finished of the first contract, and the second has not yet been commenced. r A-fcoffting?,
