The land 13 from 20 miles north to 16 miles ■oath oi the latitade of the mouth of the Taieri River, and is all from 2 to 38 miles to the north-ward of the Clntha River at its month, Invercargill being 3 Tnilw due south of the latitude of the Clutha, the average height above the sea level being 250 feet. The average of the boH is wow to any m the Anatrahun an Colonies, and. from climatie influence* is capable of growing not merely'excellent wheat, but first-clays oats and barley, and is peculiarly adapted for raising turnipe and artificial grasses, thereby enabling the farmer to keep his land in perfect heart by a rotation of cropping; manure hip landbyfeedingoffbisgrefn crops 'with sheep and cattle, and keep him independent of a bad market for any particular cereal. A'l over the district there is firstclass limeat'ine cropping nut to fertilise the land when it 'may require it. Forests _of large extent are scattered over it, providing timbers for building and fencing, and coal (lignite and the best brown coala) for fuel everywhere obtainable. The district is further intersected by railways, which open up the great valleys of Apanma, Oreti, and Mataora Rivers; while a loop line from the Invercargill to Kingston Railway Lumsdfam runs through the Waimea Plains and joins the Invercargill to Dnnedin main line at Gore, and a line through the Forest Hill District will be constructed shortly. Thus carriage of produce to the seaboard or marJcet is easy and cheap from any part of it; and timber, lime, and coal, can be distributed all over the country at a minimum cost. The average yield of cereals per acre, taken from tbe statistics of the Colony for the years 1873 to 1878, as compared with Canterbury, are as follow : I AREA OF *GKICU' TTTRAt.

It may be remarked that Invertosn ine meenor oi uic uwiaiuw, »iiM dne north, where the climate Is both drier and warmer, tnt along the whole seaboard the land is extremely fertile, and much prized for grass and root crops. The experience of the last few years leads to the conviction that for all-round agriculture the gnpply of rain by no means exceeds the requirements of the land. This year the thermometer at InvercargDl has averaged higher than any part of the Middle Island, and most parts of the North Island, while there has been very considerably less rainfall fl"" in any part of the Colony.

Sir—l have the honor to report on five samples of Port Wine forwarded bj yon for Thllut samples may all be described as fall-flavored, fruity, aromatic Wines; poaf in * considerable degree that agreeable irag jiance that characterises genuine Port.
