The particulars of the stoppage of a survey party in the Manawatu district are given by the Foxton paper ;—A survey party in charge of Mr James Baber are at present engaged in the work of “ triangulating” the country, in continuation of surveys performed by Mr Cliniio. Mr Baber has taken up the work from and will cany it through to Palmerston. Having worked a considcable distance northward, Mr Baber determined to make his head quarters at Foxton, and accorddingly the camp baggage was brought hither, and in a few days conveyed by boat up the Manawatu river. On Tuesday however, some natives visited the and ordered the survey party to desist and clear off their land. They spoke to the effect that they had nothing to thank the Government for, they had never assisted them in any way ; they had not been consulted regarding the entrance of surveyors upon their land, and if the whole part}' did not at once depart, they would throw their baggage into the Manawatu river. As it would be useless to make a disturbance, Mr Baber came into Foxton and telegraphed to the Native Office particulars of the affair. We may state . that Mr Baber’s impression is that no significance is to be attached to the action of the Maoris in tliis matter. He thinks they have taken this step in order to attract the attention of the Native Department, and that if one of the officials connected with that branch of the service visits them they will immediately permit the survey to go on. Well-dressed Men.—Among those habitual errors of conduct which ai’e common in both careful and careless persons, not one is more often met with than disregard of the advantages derivable from being well dressed; yet whoever lives observantly in such a. County as Pa tea, is soon convinced that this mistake is fruitful of mischievous results. All of us instinctively judge from first impressions; we proceed from the exterior to the interior; a well-dressed man gratifies our fondness for beauty and our appreciation of neatness; and there is no one, however cynical or unobservant, but is pleased when a well-dressed person, even if a stranger, passes by, and disposed to think favorably of him. This universal disposition cannot safely be offended. To be habitually a sloven is to constantly, though unconsciously, offend numerous persons. among whom the favour of some may be valuable; and therefore a shrewd man is not content to make himself neat now and then, but always will appear well dressed. He' keeps his clothes in good order, and is careful in the selection of a tailor. In bringing this maxim before public notice, R. A. Adams, Cardigan Bouse, is gratified by remembering that the disposition of a groat many of his customers to appear in public well dressed- has been met by the combination in his goods of selection, material", good fit. and low price. He obtains his cloths in the most advantageous markets; he employs first-class cutters and workmen: he avoids obsolete fashions; and he is content with moderate profits in the place of t ne exorbitantpercentage which only a few years ago was universal, and still is frequent in the tailoring trade. His gloves, hats, shirts, hosiery, tics, and scarfs, are also such as will please the most fastidious. Whatever experience, capital,care, and good taste can effect on the tradesman’s side, is done by IL A. Adams, in order' that all his customers may realise the substantial advantages of being well-dressed; and that bis efforts give satisfaction, is shown, by the rapid and steady increase in thenumber of those who deal with him. Attentive to the changes of costume necessitated by varying seasons, and of style by the dictates of fashion, R. A. ADAMS has now on. hand a large and carefully selected stock of cloths suitable for all seasons.—R. A. ADAMS Cardigan House, Carlyle.—ADVT.
