The Bishop of Wellington spares not himself. On leaving Foxton lie went to Great ford and preached there and at Bulls on Good Friday. On Easter Sunday he preached at Patea and visited Waverley in the afternoon, where he also preached. On the following Tuesday he visited Otakeho and the next day Hawera. From our Carnarvon correspondent's letter it will be learnt that he is leaving the district. This our readers will hear with regret as his letters have always been of much interest. Personally we are very sorry to lose him, though our knowledge has been gained simply from his communications as by some peculiar circumstadce we have never met. His last letter has much that should be said and we are not afraid to endorse it. To our correspondent we wish better luck and more success in the near future. The next English and European mail per " Gothic " via Rio de Janiero, will close at the Foxton office on Wednesday the Ist day of May at 3 p.m. The Frisco mail closes on Wednesday, May 15th at 3 p.m. The Ringarooma returned to Sydney just after starting on a cruise. It is understood that the trouble is owing to the doctor stating that a high officer was mentally unfit to proceed to sea. The officer placed the doctor under arrest. At Marton the Premier said there was a gross surplus of £430,000 and a net surplus of £180,000, after paying £250,000 to the Public Works Fund. We hepe it is all there. Microbes in the kiss you say ? Right you are, my boy. Little germs of purest bliss, Bacilli of joy ! Mr Rutherford intends to close his flax- j mill for a time. The Clutha Leader says :— During a conversation with a rabbitter the other day he informed us that with steady work on ordinary ground a man can earn about £100 a year at killing rabbits. His earnings for a number of years had averaged from £115 to £120 a year. He says there is a fair living throughout the country for hundreds of unemployed if they were sent to destroy rabbits, but that they would have to work for their money early and late, as the eight hours a day system would not do." That's the rub. The always unemployed enjoy the eight hour rule better than anything, if they have to do any work. The late Jay Gould's property had to be valued and at the time of his death was fixed at 80,934,580d01. This includes only 2,000,000d0l in real estate. The largest items are 18,000,000d0l in shares of the company which controls nearly all of the telegraph business in the country, and 12,000,000d0l in shares of the New York elevated railways. The annual income at current rates of interest and dividend payments is about 4,000,000d01. The Hon. Sec, Mr Eager, of the Otaki Maori Racing Club advertises the dates for the nominations for the Club's Birthday Meeting. Mr Saunders has lost all his crops from the flood but no stock with the exception of a few sheep. This is much better than was looked for.

Mr jr. J. Earns announces that he Is prepared to give lessons in Music. When Mr Enuis was last residing here he gave many opportunities, by assisting in our concerts, of showing his thorough knowledge of music, and his past pupils testify as to his capacity as a teacher. Mr Archie Osborne has returned from his trip South, and desires us to mention that he will be found as customary at his tailoring establishment.

To thoroughly reduce and prepare the stock previous to the partnership stoektaking sweeping reductions will be made in all Departments, the stock must be reduced by £15,000; and this spletidid Drapery Stock at Te Aro House will be offered to the public at most tempting prices. Early in the year Mr Smith admits to a partnership in his business a commercial gentlemen who has long been associated with the London buying for Te Aro House. Te Aro Househas long held the premier position as the ' ' Leading Family Drapery Warehouse," and further developments are now taking place to inaugurate the year 1895. The announcement made in another parof this paper that a sale of greater magnitude than ever yet attempted by Te Aro House is now being held should arrest the attention of everyone in this part of the Colony.
