AUCKLAND.
(From the Nelson Examiner.) The Bandeith, from Sydney, has arrived at the Barrier Island, with the promised party of miners for that place. The Bandeith had on board a press and types for Dr. Martin, which was put on board the Rory O'More, to be landed at Auckland. Unfortunately, the schooner grounded and sustained considerable injury, and both press and types were condemned as useless. Mr. Cooper has returned from Sydney, where it is believed he succeeded in getting a loan for the Government.
Auckland is immediately to be proclaimed a borough under the Municipal Ordinance. A Dispensary has been established, and the Mechanics’ Institution is well supported. The Raupo House Bill came into operation on the 16th of last month. As there is a fine of £2O on every building having a thatched roof, our contemporary advises the inhabitants of Auckland not to place themselves at the mercy of the crown lawyers, as the treasury is very low.
