NELSON.
(From the Nelson Examiner, Nov. 29.) The inhabitants of the town of Nelson are to be indebted to Sir George Grey for a public clock, bis Excellency, on being applied to for a subscription towards a clock to be placed in the tower of the church, having engaged to provide one at his own expense, on condition that it should be considered as the property of the public, and be placed in the charge of any future municipal body, who should have the power of removing it to one of its own public buildings if it should so determine. The clock is to be ordered forthwith from England, and certainly will be a lasting monument of his Excellency’s liberality.
