(feom oue own correspondent.) Dunedin, Sept. 20, 2.25 p.m. The General Government have offered the agents of the Tararua £100 to leave Melbourne within 15 hours after the rrival of the next Suez Mail. The German residents met last night and collected £100 towards the relief of the sufferers by the war.
A little over a quarter million sterling has been paid in dividends duriug the past three years by the various mining companies at the Thames. The dividends are not, however, distributed over a large number of claims, no less than £200,016 having beeu paid by four claims : — The Golden Crown, £100,896 ; the Long Drive, £73,800 ; the Kuranui, £13,000 ; and the Shotover, £12,320, makiug up the above total. The remaining £52,199 is chiefly furnished by tho All Nations, Thames, Uua, City of Glasgow, and Eureka gold mining companies, whose aggregate divideuds amount to £34,320. The total capital employed is £1,286,598. Pjrobably the cause of women's teeth decaying sooner than men's, is not the perpetual friction of their tongues upon the pearl, but rather the sweetuess of their lips.
