[from our own correspondents.] NASEBY. THE INTERIOR RAILWAY. July 9. A well-attended meeting at St. Bathan's, on Saturday n'-g'it, gave enthusiastic support to the Oamaru line. Resolutions were passed accordingly, inter alia, asking the Maniototo and Vincent Counties to give their cordial support to Oamaru. The Dunedin solicitation to the Government to ra''se a loan was denounced by the speakers as a shame, and as intended to meanwhile crush the Oamaru scheme. DUNEDIN. DOCK QUESTION ONCE MORE SETTLED. July 9. A prisoner named Walter Rogers, convicted at January sittings of horse stealing, died in the gaol. An inquiry is to be held to-morrow touching his death. An infant named Falconer has been found in a house of ill-fame under suspicious circumstances. The dock question is at last settled by the Harbour Board. They have agreed to the Engineer's plan, which provides one dock of 39 acres, between Stuart and Rattray streets.
